That's my issue with the AT-AT... it looks killer, but I'd rather give that space to a vintage one. So purchasing it, even at the ridiculously great price of $69 is kind of dumb for me

That was my reasoning for returning the BMF Falcon I purchased last month. Sent it back to Amazon because I'd rather have the original.

The MF is displayed with my SSC Hans

I hope that "s" is indicating a plural.

I got the big falcon second hand on ebay for a pretty reasonable price and it's nice but something about it didn't blow me away as much as I thought it might. Of course I do have the MR version, which is kind of hard to top. My son has enjoyed it though and I think we will be using it with his Galactoc Heroes. I'm inclined to skip the At-At though, especially since I have one of the previous versions.

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, my buddy had the Falcon and its impressive... but something about it never grabbed me enough to buy even when it was 50% off.

 

[DarthNeil]

I love the Falcon-- Looks great next to my multiple Han Solos from SSC... and I've already got two (yes two) vintage At-Ats in storage so it'd be pretty pointless to buy this newer (bigger and better) one.

 

[Valfar]

I went ahead and bought this today at Walmart, they had two left at $49.99, one i got was sealed and had some dings here and there so, i tested my luck at getting a discount and ended up getting additional 10% off, came to $50 and change..no complaints here.

Oh and, i couldn't own the vintage AT-AT, that molds been released over and over again..ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...only vintage retool i love that i own is the VOTC Falcon.

$49? wow. that's even better. I need to go get mine from my nephew, he found it for $69 and since its still regular price in my town he did me the favor, I am looking forward to picking it up. Just need some snow troops. At-At commander, and luke to hang from it. YES!!!

 

[DarthNeil]

I may go over tomorrow first thing and if one's still there I might pick it up-- just for fun.

 

[DiFabio]

That looks fantastic, I'm sure if I happen to see it I'll get one. Hasbro has really been hitting these Luke figures out of the park lately, especially with that last Jedi Luke.

The Bespin Luke from the ESB wave was very good as well.

 

[DiFabio]

Yep, and the original Hoth Pilot Luke also.

Hey guys, what are the best clear stands for the the Clone War figures? Mine keep falling over and I was trying to get a second opinion on what stands would be the best buy

 

[Glennfett]

got the Peasant disguise Anakin from the AOTC wave yesterday here in Australia,then laybyed the rest of the wave.

 

[unsung hero]

Loose pics please.

 

[DarthNeil]

I broke down and bought the At-At... I'll find a place for it. It says over two feet tall but you're really not prepared for the size of it until you get it together... wow. Well worth the $69.

Back in the POTF2 days, I went to TRU looking for Jedi Luke and Carbonite Han when they first came out, the CS lady gave me a rain check and wrote 'Hans Solo'. I was like "Lady!!! Who doesn't know who Han Solo is?!?!?"

I never found 'em, and ended up paying a mall scalper $20 each for 'em. How was I supposed to know they'd be re-released on red cards with holograms, green cards with no hologram, green cards with hologram and green cards with Freeze Frames??

I used a brand called real stands from realstands.com when i was collecting. Good price and they should work just fine.

I just scored Han in Bespin and Carbonite off the bay. The nostalgia factor was too much to resist.

They're not $50 out your way at Walmart?, in Canada i mean.

I found another one today at Walmart, was tempted to get a second but, that would be a foolish buy.

The Canadian Wal-Mart that's closest is over an hour away-- the US Wal-Mart is five minutes... I do most of my SW Hasbro shopping south of the border. In fact I've scored the entire vintage ROTJ wave (except for the Endor trooper-- no real interest) over the border whereas it hasn't even hit the stores on this side yet....

I am really impressed with the At-At though... It's standing in my office (stuffed with all of my snowtroopers etc.) with Luke dangling underneath ready to gut it with his lightaber.
