man, that rf fett looks sweet. it is very cool that we are finally getting one. i still have one of my vintage mailaway fetts with the insert that apologizes for him not being the rocket firing version. can't wait to get this guy. i need to mail away all my proofs with check tonight.

very nice review of jabba, icruise! can't wait to pick jabba up.

I feel a bit pissed off for not keeping some of the UPC's to previous figures i bought (legacy and clone wars) but, i will be getting two of these mail away Fett's.

So far from the vintage collection line, i have Vader, Luke,3p0,Dak, Leia and Dengar. Luke,Vader and 3p0 being my favorites so far and i also picked up the Snowspeeder and it is pretty darn nice.

The ROTJ wave looks a lot better then this one though, i want all figures from the ROTJ wave.

I just saw about 5 of the new Vintage Line figures at TRU as well as the AT-AT. I didn't get anything because I was with the wife and she was looking at me funny.

They have a tendency to do that-- Although my wife was quite impressed when she saw my complete vintage collection... but then she innocently asked how much I thought it was worth so I quickly boxed it back up for storage in the labyrinth where she'll never find it.

Checked out my local collector friendly US Wal-Mart and still nothing new out... Hoping that the 6th'll show me something different.

I used to get that look from the wife in stores...

Now I've graduated to getting that look whenever another Sideshow box comes into the house

 

[IrishJedi]

Ooh an unpunched card....

Most will probably come that way since they're being shipped directly to consumers as a mailaway premium and not to stores.

I have to admit I havent collected any Star Wars 3 3/4" in a loooong time but I finally broke down and bought the 2010 At-At and some figures to accessorize it. It was kinda cool.

Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.

I get the "What'd you order now?" line when a Sideshow box shows up.

Always two there are... The opened and unopened... No more-- No less.













Unless you're troop building and then in that case you're talking 'bout at least twenty.

stop by target yesterday and saw 2 AT-AT on the shelves, a couple of snowspeeders and the CW collection. Only one vintage figure... I walked away with the speeder, I never had one of these and for $19.99 you cant beat it... Now bring on the death watch pack... :chew

 

[agen_kolar]

I went on a hunt for Jabba yesterday at my local Wal-Marts. Came home empty-handed.

 

[Memnoch]

My Jabba came today.. and if you guys don't get this you are fools. Best toy of the year for me.

 

[meanstreak]

I actually went to Wal Mart to look for Jabba... I felt icky, hate that ____ing place.

He wasn't there.

I know what you mean man.. The closes walmart around my area is an hour drive and its not at the greatest location in town...

 

[icruise]

Plenty of pics on my site if you haven't seen them. I agree that the Jabba set is a homerun.

Great pics... I'm heading across the border early tomorrow with the hopes that my US Wal-Mart has put out the new stuff...

 

[buzzybean]

Finally got myself a set of OT Bounty Hunters, been trying for years (missed on the actual pack). Also got them all (except Zuckuss) on Vintage Collection carbacks as well.

Are these figs in the set any different than the ones they've released in the past several years?

Thanks,

BB

Don't be afraid to ask an employee if you don't see it (especially if it looks like they haven't reset their toy section yet). Tell them to type the UPC number (65356950285) into their computers to check the stock.

Word is here in Ontario, we are getting the AT-AT here in the next couple days, i am on the fence about getting it though.

I made a error about the Vintage cards having the boba offer printed on the card, they are just stickers and the walmart shipments around here did not have them on the cards or the form in the bubble.
