I'm really disappointed the spring-loaded ones never took off. I think those are the absolute best.

But they ain't gonna get me like last time. Now I know that I can buy the regular SW figs to get the deal and not just the vintage ones.

[Wheeljack35]

I have some UPC's from last year I was going to send in for another Boba I can use them for this

[chuckdawg1999]

Are you sure? Because I can think of at least two figures out now that I would want and if I can use those UPC's that's gold.

[Wheeljack35]

I think if it's from a card in this vintage line it can be used I need to find a figure that hes the new Boba offer on it so I can get the info

[chuckdawg1999]

I think if it's from a card in this vintage line it can be used I need to find a figure that hes the new Boba offer on it so I can get the info

I meant from the non vintage line. I'll buy one Vintage if I have to just to get the form.

George Lucas Talks SW Live-Action Series and 3D Movies


The Maker himself, George Lucas, appeared on G4's Attack of the Show on Monday and Tuesday nights to discuss three major contemporary Star Wars topics.

G4's Kevin Pereira interviewed Lucas and Disney Imagineer Tom Fitzgerald about Star Wars in 3D, Star Tours: The Adventures Continue, and yes, briefly, the upcoming live-action series. Lucas and Fitzgerald described the unique nature of the new Disney ride and its evolution over the years. Lucas also discussed the challenges of converting the Star Wars film series to 3D and the fact that everyone involved is being very careful to do it right.

However, the hottest segment of the AOTS interview by far was the part where Lucas discussed the live-action TV show. Here are some of the things that he said about the eagerly-awaited series.

"We have 50 hours and we're just waiting to figure out a different way of making movies, a different technology we can use ... to make it feasible to shoot the show."
"[W]hen we do figure this problem out it will dramatically affect a lot of movies."
"Right now it looks like the Star Wars features."

Last we heard, the series was still in the script stage, so this is a significant jump forward in the creative process. With Celebration VI hopefully just a year away, is there a chance that we'll have new live-action Star Wars footage waiting for us in [insert CVI city here]? Here's hoping!

You can check out both interviews here, courtesy of G4 TV.

So how big of a cluster do you think this thing is going to end up being? Does Anakin have an arm or just that hull thing?
