I found this rare Star Wars card this past weekend..





That is just some of my troop.. I of course am the gunner on the left.

Bro have you lost weight, your looking buff in that stuff.

That's awesome!

Well since lyns pregnated Im having my aunt do my Nihlus suit. She is a seamstress for a living so it won't take as long too get it.

I have been biking and lifting weights again. Thank you for noticing (makes me feel good that my hard work is paying off)..

I'm not finding very many new figures, so I'm considering ordering sets or cases of the figures instead of being disappointed in finding last year's figures every time I go out. This is ridiculous... my area has never been so bad. I did get the following today though:

Obi-Wan & Alpha comic pack
VTSC Leia and Han

The VTSC Han in Hoth gear has to be the second worst offering in the VOTC style line of figures. The winner of that contest is C-3PO, whom I will never regret passing on. Besides, I ended up with four of the bastard toy since he was repacked a few times last year. I hate the fact that Han has super-articulated legs, but his jacket wasn't designed "smartly" to allow the legs more movement. And who had the brilliant idea to give Han a removable hat that can't fit on at the same time that the hood piece is around his neck? And whose binoculars are those? The Wampa's? I'm just glad I only paid $8-something at Target for Han.

Love the Ep2 / Clone Wars style Obi-Wan... I always hated those skinny, mal-formed legs (sculpted by the same person I suspect also sculpted the Death Star Trooper) from that Ep3 Obi-Wan figure, but it's nice to finally have a decent looking Ep2 Obi-Wan. I'm thinking about buying another comic pack so I can head-swap him with a spare Ep3 Obi-Wan that I have.

ARC Trooper... God, never put his helmet on unless you enjoy spending five minutes trying to remove it. Great figure otherwise, though I wish Hasbro bothered to make the rangefinder on the helmet swivel down. I mean why not, it's already a separate piece!

Spike - I havn't found **** either around these parts.

DS - Your customs rock dude. How did you make the omega squad troops fully articulated? Did you dremmel out the helmets?

Thanks bro!

Yeah I dremeled out the helmets to make them wearable. I also gave them real legs that move, by supply them with #41's legs and building up the calf armor so that it was as thick as the true Katarn armor.

Does anybody have the new interactive R2-D2? If so what are some of the "Secret" features he has? I'm assuming that one of them is the ability to launch nuclear warheads from Skywaker ranch, am I wrong? I haven't been able to use mine yet since the instructions tell you several times that he shouldn't be used in temps over 77 degrees and for the price I paid I don't want need him to like combust or something.

Saw an ad in Toyfare for an Entertainment Earth exclusive.

Totally looking forward to getting that

[Darth Screamer]

I so want!

[Wheeljack35]

Oh sweet a female Mandelorian

But the price is too damn steep

[Senor Hugo]

Mmmm, $66 isn't that bad for a 14 figure set.

I can't wait till they debut the other figures from the set at comic con.

[Wheeljack35]

Oh...I judged it on the 4 I seen


I wasn't paying attention to the text

[Homer]

I have heard that the mandelorian clones are going to be the shitiest figs in the set, so this should be a pretty top shelf collection.

[Bumble-B]

when does the Grievous figure with removable mask come out. Also, when does the cartoon Boba figure come out?
the 3-3/4" figures
~thank you

[Homer]

The Boba Fett should be out sometime this month or the beginning of August. The Greivous should be out in September.


I am surprised you guys haven't mentioned the final wave of TAC. Here's a pic

Also, the fifth fig in the mystery set is the all Black Republic Commando, but DS beat Hasbro & EE to it.....

[Darth Screamer]

Not too mention. I didn't take black paint and repaint scorch aand call it a new fig still without articulation in the legs.

Nice one hasblow! LAZY MUCH!

Who are those figs in the last wave of the Tac. I recognize the wolf jedi and padme and Jango and of course the battle Droid.

Who are the other figs?

[Wheeljack35]

The one with a white clam shell helmet is a Mac Rebel

The other is a clone in training
