Great job multi-quoting, jedimonkey!

If only Chalor would learn to do the same...

I literally have no idea how to do that. I mean I could figure it out, but the thought never occurred to me. I barely spend any time on here, but don't take any of it seriously (like some people

). I'm 37 - still look like I can barley buy beer; but have the neurotic, cantankerous disposition of a 90-year-old. Your newfangled technology frightens me, yet intrigues me on some primal level. I'm pretty sure now everyone assumes I am completely computer illiterate. It's funny that my friend called panicking the other day needing to get a new Google stick working..because to him, I'm the tech guy

. At first (even with the last comment) when all the messages started comimg in complaining about me..it aggravated me because of the disrespect. I believe I was being what they call 'butt hurt' - cause that's where my brain is located..makes sense.

Yep, I'm calling UPS first thing Monday morning after I get off work. It's not allowing me to do the thing because it doesn't have the package listed for my address - even though the address is correct. Either way, by no later than Wednesday night, I'll be delicately touching a Q-tip head to Yoda's fragile, glued on head pubes.....while tropical misting the robes using a lens cleaner bottle.

Oh yeah, the name's Travis. Just wanted to throw that out , so when I'm getting blasted, ppl can use my actual name

(No passive aggressiveness at all). Chalor was a Star Wars bounty hunter character I drew/created in probably '96. I reeeeealy hope all these messages (that only mention Yoda in passing) haven't upset the elite class on here *pinky extender and nose-turner-upper activated!*

I was just bustin' your chops... :wink1:

I noticed in several threads where you post several times in a row, referencing different posts. Basically, you just go to the bottom of the posts you wish to reply to and where it shows "Reply", "Reply With Quote" and "Multi Quote". Click on the "Multi Quote" and a red checkmark appears. You do that for all of the ones you wish to reply to and then on the last one click "Reply with Quote". Now you'll have all of the selected posts copied over and you can reply to each one individually. (just like I have done here...)

I'll probably be doing the same with my Yoda, who is scheduled to arrive tomorrow! :yess:

No problem man. Awesome..I learned something today! That'll make it a lot easier. It can get frustrating going through page after page to make sure you've replied to all; now I'm good to go.

Ordered mine from Lootentoys, best online price so far imo. Can't wait to get this one

illproxy · May 22, 2017

got mine via SS a few days ago, love it. today got a free package via them with a behind the scenes book and a free 25 promo card, was a code on the yoda box as well. was my first order direct from them so assuming that was it but still very cool.
:clap

After a bit of a mess up with a UPS re-direction, I picked up my Yoda last night, and all I can say is that he is YO-DORABLE!!!

The face sculpts are, IMO, masterful and really capture Yoda from ESB. I'm not 100% in love with the hair - it does come off easily, and the sculpted hair underneath looks a bit odd. I found that just from posing him a little, the hair had messed up enough to look natural, so I wont be touching it intentionally.

The red wash on the head sculpts are odd, but not too obvious in hand (ignore the red glow from my light in the attached picture).

The costume is pretty good - although, I don't like the material used for the inner brown robe - it's a bit too clean and silky. Not a problem though, as it's mostly hidden by the outer robe. Mostly (couldn't resist).

The accessories are great - I haven't tried the lamp yet - damn those tiny HT screws! I would've loved more cargo boxes, particularly the tray of food that Yoda steals from Luke.

Bottom line: I think that this figure is awesome and a must-have for me

got mine. love it. the only downside is the right sleeve has a hole in it. i know its supposed to be there, but mine is way large.

Brett Banner · May 22, 2017

Got mine as well. He's...ok. The red/tan in the wrinkles is much more pronounced on both heads that I expected in hand. I think I will learn to love him though with time. I immediately bent his knees, crouched him forward, and pulled his shoulders and robes down to show more of the neck like in the movie.
