I just am not a big fan of the Clone Wars slender figures, so I'm crossing my fingers that this ends up on clearance one day. Then I'll snatch it, but not at reg'ler price.



I'm not a fan of the Clone Wars figures myself but was that a sales price? That is the cheapest I have heard these sets to be.They now run around $25



Honestly, I saw the three pack on the shelf which was labeled as $16.99, so I can't exactly say how much they are. That's just what my assumption was, but $25 is entirely too much for them. I know that figures are like $9 a piece currently, and so this is technically a discount, but it's too much for me to drop on the spindly body designs. I do hope it goes to clearance though.



With the prices now at around $10 per figure I pick and choose.Mostly from the origional trilogy they got to stop forcing tons of the new prequel stuff on us .A friend of mine seen two kids in a store looking at the star wars toys asking who Han Solo was


That is really, really sad to hear. :sad:



I blame the parents for that


Absolutely.

AWESOME NEW STARWARS FIGURES

Last weekend I bought a Darth Vader with a light-up lightsaber. Frickin awesome. The Walmart I was at had Qui Gon and Obiwan from Episode I. Has anyone else seen these figures and does anyone know if they are going to make original trilogy figures like this?

Size? Cost? Was the lightsaber removable? Articulation?

I've seen the Qui-Gon version of that here in Germany (at Galeria Kaufhof). His lightsaber cannot be removed, but will light up when you press his belt/crotch area. Alas, it doesn't stay lit up, so constantly keeping your finger on his crotch part isn't the best choice, IMO. Looks cool, though I won't be getting it.

Hello...hello....hello....(echo) :lol:

Hey, like an hour ago I bought a Darth Vader in this retro-ish packaging that is *allegedly* the original packaging design from the 70's SW figures. I know, who could possibly need another Vader? At first, it just looks like Vader with the dopey blue plastic Force lightning 'acessory,' but upon further review, he has a detattchable hand (like in ROTJ when his is cut off) and a mildly translucent helmet, with an actual head/skull underneath! You can even see a yellow eye! It's real cool, and if I ever come across another one I'll probably pick it up, as I'd like a sealed one to keep in the collection as well.
Other than that, I almost bought a Kmart excluse AT-ST a week back, but left it when it scanned at 35$! I have never ever played with one of those despite having wanted one since the 80s. I bought both of the Target Ultimate Battle PAcks a handful of years ago but never opened them, so I technically own two AT-STs, but they are at my mothers', and she's on the (legitemately) mentally ill side, so she forbids her children from going back to the house, so I can't get the packs. Makes me angry on a near daily basis.
Sorry for the rant, but I figured no one's even checking this thread anymore, so I felt I could shout into the wind.

Miss you, Star Wars peeps.... :sad:

Now, I love the movies n all but dont pick up any figures or such like, but whilst at a local car boot sale (or yard/garage sale for our cousins over the pond) I found this little fella MISB/MOSC for only 50p!

I own an original old school AT-AT from way back in the day, so I thought he would make a fitting pilot/driver? :lol:

TRU's having a BOGO on Star Wars figures, and you can mix and match from the various lines. I got a shock trooper and a Clone leutenant in the vintage packaging.
