Let me just say that Elder is the ^^^^in' man for offering to help me out via PM. Don't need it but the offer was awesome, Freaks helping Freaks always a great thing to see.
 
Just when I thought I was done with Hasbro they pulled me back in!!! In all honesty, I'm an opener and got Anakin, Obiwan, Yoda, Grevious and Clone trooper. All are great EXCEPT Grevious' legs cant support his mighty torso. I've tried with 2 arms, 4 arms, he just falls over. I was really pumped for him and now am very PO'd! Why oh why can't Hasbro make his legs from sturdier plastic? Can't imagine how bad Super Battle Droid will be with that huge troso and tony legs.
 
Hasbro has to conform to certain regulations regarding the strength and flexibility of the plastic they use as it relates to child safety.
 
My TRU got in a big shipment of Legacy and Clone Wars figurs in this morning, I was able to pick up:

1st Day Captain Rex x2
1st Day Animate Yoda x2 (so cute :))
1st Day Animate Clone Obi
and Free Holo Grevious

I thought about also getting 1st Ewoks but decided to pass since I was picking up 2 Halo figs as well. But for now I think that is it for me with the Clone Figures.
 
I finally opened my haul up tonight, pretty impressed with the quality of the animated figures, Anakin looks fantastic, and Rex, I love the more slender design he has instead of the bulk most Clone figures have. The only one I'm not fond of is Yoda, only because the way they designed his action feature into the figure itself, I like that the others have kid weapons included but the base figure is still adult collector friendly. And I'm very impressed with the weathering on Rex and Obi-Wan, really some of the best paint apps from Hasbro ever.

Same here. As soon as I noticed that I was really disappointed. On the plus side, his cane covers the hole pretty well but it sucks for lightsaber poses.
 
Picked up the Quad Gunner, Saesee Tinn, Quarren Soldier, Mon Calamari Warrior and Scuba Trooper tonight. Opened the Scuba Trooper and Quad Gunner so far. Nice figures, but a long way from great figures.

Ya, the cane's not bad. If they'd just made his robe to look normal and did like a fatter left sleeve, the cane would hide the hole and the overall figure would look real sharp.
 
Has it been announced whether GG is supporting The Clone Wars? I saw the Clone statues but they didn't look cartoony.

I remember reading in an official UK sci fi magazine that part of the merchandising that would be coming out of Clone Wars were mini busts. They didn't actually say Gentle Giant busts, but I'd expect them to be made by GG rather than anyone else.
 
Thanks a lot to Robin for hookin' a brother up with a Fox. Got it today. You rock bro. Payment goes out today.
Pics later too.

Also, Josh, your Grievous will go out today too.
