3.75" Collecting Thread

[Malgus]

That'll be why the exclusion list was so large. Still, not happy with this at all. Assuming they don't make more and assuming the aftermarket prices only get higher than they are right now that means I probably will not own what has always been my number one grail for the Star Wars toy line.

Even if I can get excited about future Haslab projects after this - is there any point in being excited or will they again bar me from being able to buy future hypothetical items?

Hasbro doesn't owe you a barge. Buy one on eBay if you really want it. Obviously this is the only way they can come up with to sell this outside of North America.

Jesus Malgus...look at the sentiments everyone else is expressing except you.

From the very beginning of this you have seemed to downright relish the fact that people outside the US were excluded. You have really enjoyed this fact. You could stay silent about it but you don't. It reeks of begrudgery and it comes across in every one of your posts. You're at it on rebelscum aswell.

And you're this anti-Trump guy? Could have fooled me.


By the way, thanks everyone else.

As Han Solo might say he's a wonderful human being.

I'm one of few people who actually agrees with him or at least can meet him halfway about soft goods or ugly joints but he loses me with the sneering tone he always has towards other people. It's a shame.

Yourself, TaliBane, Matt S, Tee-kay, Khev, Tom Day, DCFett and anyone else who didn't need to care but did, again thank you.

The more fans' the better.....i see it only as a win-win. Not like these are rare. Not really. I mean, the Mona Lisa is rare.......


Now, I'd love a 6" classic Tie Fighter itself. I'd pay a pretty penny for one. Not $400 or more, but I'd be in for $200. A guy has got to know his limits LOL

I hope you get your barge in Ireland, a-dev. You seem a lot more excited about it than I was when it arrived in it's human-sized box.

I also hope that Malgus has the love and support of people in his life outside of the internet to help him develop a more respectful and kind attitude toward others as time goes on. Looking forward to the death of original fans of the Star Wars franchise in the 70s and 80s and berating people for returning something to a retailer seems like a sad and lonely way to spend one's time.

Which Vader is that? Was it customized in any way?

I couldn't read his comments in the CM threads anymore...

I hope somehow you end up getting one of these for retail or close a-dev. It's always good to see a true fan get to really enjoy something like this.

I've been going a bit nuts on scooping up Rogue One 3.75 troopers lately myself. Just love all the troops from that flick so much. There's some good deals to be had on ebay lately, and Tuesday Morning stores have been selling figures for $2 each! Got a few of the Stormtroopers with that super incredible bucket sculpt there lately as well.

lol his comments pretty much drove me out of that thread.. so not interested in seeing politically charged posts, I come here to escape that garbage.

LOL!

It’s one thing to contribute to the discussion of a thread and disagree but every post of his is drenched with nothing but disdain towards everyone even people he agrees with. Must be a sad strange little man and I pity him.

You would think a saga like Star Wars, conveying such wonderful values, would only attract people with a minimum amount of empathy for their fellow fans/collectors. I guess some of us are just mercenaries, we can only Wonder if they care about anything... or anybody.

Are you talking the one that is brand new - didn't know it was out, and for $2? What the....I doubt I have that store near me in TX

Update: i have one 2.6 miles away. MIND BLOWN. Never even heard of it

Oh wait, this one right:



I work at HEB in Texas. Local grocery chain. The store I had worked at had him. Even though a 5 POA, it is awesome. Thew new SA version is using the same head sculpt

Ah, naw Im talking about the one from the Rogue One line. The new one sports the same bucket, but has differently posed arms. I’ve been scooping those up as well, but they’re $10 each unfortunately. I think you may be thinking of the vintage line rogue one stormy though, and I dont think that one is out yet. And yes, I'll need like 20 of those lol

Rogue one version:

Galaxy of Adventure version:

 

[Matt S]

thanks, I realized too late......but even so, gonna hit my store tomorrow. I've only seen one in the wild by me. (closest target 52 miles away), and walmart is walmart. LOL

thank you!!!


Paint job on that galaxy one doesn't look as nice.........

yeah, the body suit areas can be hit or miss on that Galaxy one, but it's still a really nice looking trooper on the shelf! It's basically the exact same one that came in the Target Exclusive Solo troop multi pack, but without the orange pauldron.

Good luck on the Tuesday Morning hunt! I've found some decent scores there on vehicles, black series figures, 3.75 figures, and of course My little Pony for my daughter lol

thanks for the idea....clearly I need to expand my SW shopping horizons......Im sure your daughter loves my little pony. I have 3 sisters and all loved him when younger

No Tuesday Morning stores by me, but I did stop by a Dollar Tree. No SW figures I could find. I also stopped at a Five Below and picked up a lone TLJ Darth Vader/Imperial Droid 2pk for $5. Found him alone hidden among a bunch of Rathar 2pk's. One of the only Vader figures I was missing as last week I finally found a Galaxy Of Adventures Vader at Target. Now I just need to find a Force Link 2.0 Vader. Preferably cheap...

If you open your figures, the Force Link 2.0 Vader is the exact same as the Galaxy of Adventures one, so no need to track that one down. He's fairly hard to find unfortunately.

Lol I bought one on ebay for $15 cause Im a sucker for carded Vader figures
