Plenty of pegs still empty in my local US (across the border) collector-friendly Wal-Mart...

I bought the TPM wave from TRU.com...though it has now been removed (most likely for them violating street date). However, they have been shipped and I will have them on Monday.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

is that picture in your sig of Mr Fisto from the movie? or is that teh SSC figure?

 

[agen_kolar]

It's a promo shot from ROTS...but Kit Fisto from SSC is still one of my favorite figures.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

I think I might get it...you have any pics that would entice me to do so? lol

 

[agen_kolar]

I have none of my own, but here's a few from other members:

Nice! seems like he has no neck though...

This is my jabba's palace diorama

Now thats a classy set up! Love it!

I want to watch the Blu Rays of it but I'm worried I'll get hooked lol and I dont want to spend any more money on SW stuff lol

Same here. Ive never watched for that exact reason although I must say the figures are great. I love there Yoda with the cloth robe. It might actually be one of the best one's Ive seen.

I said the same thing about Clone Wars in the beginning. And I watched it!

What happened was I made a trade for some toys online, and the person knowing I was a Star Wars fan, sent me some LOOSE clone wars figures he didn't need anymore. For free. In one easy transaction, I was now an owner of Obi-Wan, Yoda, and two Clones.

It just spiraled from there because I always wanted C-3PO and R2-D2 for kicks... and then I wanted an Anakin to go with it. And then they made a better Yoda. And then and then and THEN!!!!

Yep. I got out of collecting anything smaller than 1/6 but with this new VC line I fell for them all over again. Some of the best SW stuff in this scale to come out in a long time. I bought Vader and that was it. I got C-3PO, R2-D2,Chewie, 2 Stormtroopers( best Ive seen) and Jedi Luke, 2 more Stormtrooper and the Blu Ray Commemorative ESB Pack is in the mail.

Came across this at a local TRU today. Got a chuckle out of it

He's one of those great minor characters in SW. I dont know why, I just love him.

My Ep1 Vintage figures arrived from Toysrus.com although I'm missing Ratts Tyrell, Sidious, and Maul. I'll post pics and comments when I get to these.. maybe next week.

 

[Coheteboy]

Here's a look at my Ep1 figures...

Quinlan Vos, solid figure but should he have a robe?

Queen Amidala

Articulation is weird because this happens.

Character Debut of Naboo Royal Guard?

I beg to differ...

Daultay Dofine

 

[Coheteboy]

Ben Quadinaros is cool but what's up with his mean expression?

Otoga comparison

I'm missing Ratts Tyrell

Whoever sculpted Anakin had his eyes closed.

Battle Droid. An improvement but still not perfect. You can't hold his blaster with both hands and his neck is too short.

He can get pretty low!

That's it!

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

the neck isnt all the way out...it should "pop" into place making it about the right length

Oh does it? I'll have to try that.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

Yeah, most are really tight but all of mine (like 6 or 7) have been able to come out a bit further than the way they are in the packages

 

[Darth Waller]

Word on Rebelscum.com is the Multi-Troop Transport from Episode I is being shown at the UK Toy Fair. Supposedly it includes 20 Battle Droids (4 articulated, 16 non-articulated) and Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Ah, so that's the BMF size vehicle that was rumored?
