(FLOSI'S Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

Yeah, full set of 100. (includes blue Snags)
I went on a bender last year at C2E2 and bought 15 (maybe 16) of the last 17 figures while there. Those are the POTF figs. Only one I didn't get was the Yak Face cause the only one I saw had a bleached head and was all faded.
The one I bought yesterday is purdy!

100? How did you get 100? There are 93 figures not counting the 2 extra r2 and 1 c3po and then blue snags make 97.

I think Jabba and the Max Rebo band are included in the 100... Maybe even the Dianoga, but that might not be part of it. But I recall that it's 100 w/o minor variants like different colored hair or Lando's teeth.

Oh, thought it was a period. Poop is OK.

So did I!

Anyone able to still get one of those Droids R2-D2 12-inch vintage figures from Gentle Giant? I think I need to search for one.

The SDCC one? Did that go up for sale already??? CRAP! I missed it... I really really needs that. I have C3PO, and he'll be lonely without R2!

I've been absent for a while, not that anyone noticed. Enjoy the time away from me?

Wow this is so cool! A librarian found an original shooting script for Star Wars in Canada of all places!!

Original Star Wars script discovered in UNB library - New Brunswick - CBC News


My favorite part of the article:

"I'll tell you one thing, right now," Brown gleefully points out.
"Based on the script, I can tell you 100 per cent, Han shot first."

If I were that librarian, I would have slipped that script into my bag, and auctioned it at Sotheby's or whatever.

It is POURING here, and my umbrella is in the car. Leaving in 2 minutes...

Ah I was counting the carded figures. There was 92 back but they only list R2 and c3p0 once and yakface and no bluesnags. Thats what I always counted 97 unless your a baller and have a VC jawa there 98. I never considered Jabba or Max Rebo figures since they were boxed.

Anyone have any extra complete vintage Jabba denizens they are willing to part with on the cheap? Lmk.

Any specific ones? Need to be complete? I may have a few, I used some to put with my Jabba but I think I may still have some more.

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

I really need to work on my vintage set but damnit, I keep getting sidetracked. The problem for me is I have a lot of figures but need almost all the accessories. I'm afraid to buy them online with all the repros out there.

The end of this week's GoT episode was ****ing beautiful.

Congrats! That's a nice looking place. That means nice looking guests.

And nice looking co-workers...who I'll never see because I'll be working at night.

Double congrats!

Sadly, I did not get to ride Small World after we chatted. I will have to see how it hits me on the next trip with your theory in mind.

Last two puppets.

And thanks!

What's your position at the hotel? I worked in hotels for many years. Front Desk Clerk, Night Auditor, Accounting, Front Office Manager, Manager on Duty, and Security. If I went back into the industry, I'd try for Director of Revenue or something like that. I have the experience, since I've trained many Directors of Revenue due to my hotel software experience... I could also be a corporate trainer or something like that... I'm actually thinking of going back into it, since I'm bored with my current job...

Night audit supervisor, which basically means I do the audit, make executive decisions as manager on duty, and someone else handles the clerk chores.

I've been doing night audit as a short term survival strategy for years. Whenever I get sick of it, I find a new hotel capable of improving my situation. This time I hit a relative jackpot.

I'd prefer complete to make it easier on my self if possible. I only have a Weequay and the max Rebo set so anything beyond there would be needed to complete the look.

I liked to imagine you were a fisherman. Or a lobster...er. Lobstrador?

I can see Jabba being a bit of an outlier, since he's boxed and similar to a Wampa or Rancor, but he's a character versus a creature, which I think keeps him in the 100. And then the band are definitely figures even if they were never sold single-carded.

So with 92 figures counting C-3PO and R2 once
2 additional R2s
1 additional C-3PO
1 Blue Snags
4 From ROTJ (Jabba, Max, Droopy and Sy)

That's 100.

So I guess the Dianoga is just a bonus creature.

I'd prefer complete to make it easier on my self if possible. I only have a Weequay and the max Rebo set so anything beyond there would be needed to complete the look.

I have a loose Nikto, no weapon but you can have him for free. His weapon is a common one, so always possible you could pick up an extra one in a lot one day.

The 100 must not count Jabba then since Yak Face is not part of the 92. He was to appear on a 93 cardback.

Damn, my logic seemed air-tight

Oh well... I still think Jabba should get the nod as a figure; but so should Salacious

Yeah I remember being really confused when I was buy them few years ago. I even went and counted what I have displayed. I have 98 on the one shelf, but that includes a fake VC jawa. I thought it would be cool to show both versions but no way I would pay for a real one.

 

[galactiboy]

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

Yeah, VC would be awesome... but I wouldn't know the first thing about spotting a real one; let alone being able to afford one
