Have any Canadians seen these and are they carded?

I'll keep my eyes open for it.

That is out here in Ireland. Looks fantastic! Should come with Veers though.

Well Walmart has a sale on clones agian, $4.50. Decided to get a couple camo ARFs.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Well here is my newest haul of Clone Wars figures, really the last couple weeks.

2 Camo ARF Troopers, Kit Fisto, Snow Rex, General Grievous, Vintage Boba Fett and I've ordered Commander Bly and Stone from a guy on the Rebelscum boards. They are coming from Hawaii so I guess it will take a week.

Over all, I love the ARFs, I have three counting the normal one. Kit Fisto is way better than his previous version, still not sure if he fits in the ship. General Grievous looks cool and would be cool if he was made of HARDER plastic. He falls over all of the damn time taking out all of my other clones. Hasbro has yet again failed on Grievous. Snow Rex is alright, I wish he would have had ball hinge hips, wrists and ankles though. Vintage Boba, well not much bad stuff to say other than the jet Pack hates me and wont stay on for ____. Looking forward to Stone and Bly. Stone has no ankle articulation and that kind of chaps my cheeks. The newest ARC Trooper Battlepack looks pretty bad except for the new Rex, he has the new and improved helmet that most clones with removable helmets sport. Looks more accurate, the other figures, mainly the Phase I.5(They have a mix between Phase I and Phase II buckets) figures look like ____. the one's neck is way too long and lacks the grey paint on the bucket. They both have buckets that are sculpted differently then what is seen in the show. I am still deciding on whether or not to buy that pack for the new Rex and Red ARC, Phase I. I will end this essay with: the Flame Clone is amazing looking, damn shame there isn't any ankle, writs and hip ball hindges.

Went to the Hasbro booth at CV today and bought a couple cases of the vintage line figures that include some from the next wave (Anakin, Obi-Wan, Grievous, Clone Trooper, Darth Sidious, Magna Guard and Cody).

It turns out, for each case you bought, Hasbro was supposed to give you a rocket firing Boba. Two people gathered my order and neither gave me my Bobas. Instead of getting three, I got none!

Noooooooooooooo! Which reminds me, I never bought those figures from you, either! Did you end up with a Grievous?

I have multiples of quite a few figures, so send me a PM on the ones you're interested in. I can send them to you so you don't have to wait until October.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

PM sent if you don't mind.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Better pictures tomorrow, I'll have time for the light tent.

Heading out to a few malls/Wal-Mart etc... If I see one I might pick it up over here-- but I'll let you know.

ROTJ wave looks so good though, i wish they would have gave Luke his cloak but, other then that it is the best wave of vintage style figures yet.

 

[DarthNeil]

No special At-At (with carded Snowtroopers) insight (and what was most disturbing was absolutely no sign of Jabba) but most of everything else was out... Picked up a CW Aurra Sing to put on the back of second purchase Cad Bane's bike (looks really cool)-- also grabbed a Mandalorian Police Officer (no sign of the cooler Mandalorian offer) and the battle-damaged Grievous... Looked at picking up a bunch (more) of the Vintage but I'll hold off for now...

Now then-- where's Jabba???

 

[Valfar]

I'm hearing something about the Canadian Bilingual? Triligual? BAT-AT's not having any voice clips at all in them.

I hope that version with the two free Snowtroopers has all the voice clips intact, not that i intend on buying this just yet, just sucks for Canadian collectors if we get jipped due to language laws.

Quinlan Vos is going to be on The Clone Wars?

 

[DarthNeil]

Quinlan Vos is going to be on The Clone Wars?

I guess so-- but I'm more interested in getting ten or twelve of those undead Geonosians... awesome display potential.

finally scored a jabba set today.......

ripped him right out of the box & went to re-painting........

just got finished with the throne portion:
painted all the "stone" with a wash of tan & a bit of green. added some darker run off stains.....
repainted all the pillows with with a wash & added pastels.
repainted his arm rest with a copper spray paint that i sprayed into a small cup & painted with a q-tip.
and gave the gargoyle heads a more patina finish....(solid black is..)
dul-coated it all except the armrest.

jabba, oola, & crumb are next.
