Yep. Kinda bummed I missed out on the Republic Gunship. Oh well. I just want a few figures... actually I may call quits after I get the remaining members of Delta Squad.
 
I have a good handful of Hasbro's SW stuff, I mostly collect TVC line. They're getting a lot better with their likeness recently. I'm excited about the upcoming wave with Galen Marek & Grand Moff Tarkin, I should have them in a little over a week.
 
The Gunship has appeared several times now... but all dependent on which version you want.
 
Current distribution has DIED in my area since the Phantom Menace line came out months ago - think we are at least two waves past that, but you would never know it, at least in my area.

Damn you Phantom Menace
 
Are any of you guys variant collectors with Hasbro/Kenner?

I have a few things I want to run past variant collectors with my site Collection Stash.
 
^ Nope.

You were right. I saw one (Command variant) pop up on BBTS. I hesitated and now it's sold out again. D'oh. :slap It's really true what they say, "he who hesitates, ____ ."
 
From Hasbro at SDCC:
The Vintage Collection has gone two years, with over 100 figures. The line is now on hold. Not going away, just on indefinite hold. They know there are plenty of figures left to do... As long as Darryl DePriest is on the SW line, the Vintage line will not die. An internal Hasbro favorite, they'd very much like to eventually complete the original Kenner Vintage line.

?? Huh?? Weird.... My brick and mortar dollar goes to Lego now anyway.
 
From Hasbro at SDCC:
New 12" figures! Cost around $14. Coming Spring 2013: Darth Vader, Episode III Anakin, Clone Trooper, Episode III Obi-Wan. These will have a vintage quality in terms of sculpt and articulation. Most accessories molded right into their hands.

When did they produce 12 inch figures with weapons molded in to their hands? So Hasbro is copying GG that is copying Kenner?

Wow. Feels like 1985 all over again. Now I can focus all of my money on 1:6.

Brian's Toys has the balls to sell her for $25?!?!? They are the most ridiculously overpriced reseller on the web.
 
Not making excuses for BT, but...it's an exclusive, the presentation is good and yhou're not gonna find this in stores...


And, yeah Khev...it is odd that arena Padme didn't make it onto a vintage card....

Neither did Count Dooku....
 
It's also really hard for me to actively support Brian's Toys. Ugh. And for Jocasta Nu. That beeyatch. I always hated her character. She's like the old woman librarian version of C-3PO.
