Ha! Why am I not surprised? Im not sure what they're going for with this set, but I've read that Angel is included, and a few other characters of note. I'll do what research I can and get back to you...... I love the Spidey and Venom sculpts!!! Did you see those???

man, i've hardly even THOUGHT about star wars toys in a while... only when i go to KB and see them for $2.99 and think to myself "eh... maybe when they're $1.99"

I finally found a bunch of shit inthe last month. About fucking time Hasbro is sending shit out? What the fuck, was their shipping budget blown for SW? Did they spend it all on nija toys?

I keep seeing them new $20 vehicles. Hailfire Droids, Geonosian Fighters, etc. Except now I don't have any money to get 'em....oh well.

I passed on both of these, and the three-pack Clonetroopers with binoculars. Hasbro is just sucking so much, and it's already too close to impossible to get so much stuff that I don't feel the need to be a completist anymore.

It'd be nice to see Qui-Gon Jinn with Eopie on a Saga card, but Hasbro's too goddamn stupid to do it. They can suck my male sexual organ located in the lower abdominal area.

Holy crap! I saw about 20 of the new A-Wings sitting on the top shelf at Target. They were nowhere near the other SW swag, so unless you knew they were there, you'd never know they were there. I ALMOST bought one.

Yesterday, I went to Target, saw nothing, and was leaving. But I went through the action figure aisle one more time, and they had a bungload of 12" Leia Speederbikes, TMNT Sewer Lairs, and Unicrons on the top shelf! I'd completely missed them. I guess some idiot thinks it makes good business sense to put toys where the average adult (much less the average five-year-old) won't be able to see them.

I got a shitwhack of star wars toys in the mail from KEBco last week. Been getting my stuff there all year, makes it pretty easy. Problem is I didn't really get stuff very often, so the boxes were really big and expensive each time. Oh well. Im now way closer to being caught up for this year, still need 9 basic Saga figs and 4 Clone Wars ones. I don't know if anyone else who orders from them has received this stuff yet (Aay Vida and Imp Dignitaries wave in Saga, and the second wave of basics from Clone Wars). I don't think they're all that prevalent at retail down there yet. God knows we ain't getting that stuff up here.

I've really been happy with the new Hoth Han, if you guys see him marked down I'd say pick him up. The new Snowtroopers aren't too bad, and Im quite happy with all 4 of the little boxed screen scenes as well. Im not liking the Clone Wars figs too much, other than Obi Wan (if you leave the extra gear off him, he's a pretty useful Obi Wan) and Assajj Ventress for whatever reason. The rest bite.

JJ, what CW figs u need? I got some extras. Lemme know

KH, thanks, but Kebco has them all on their end. Im in the one of each club. You don't have a bunch of Super Art clones or anything do you? I'd take those off your hands (any number up to 10) in a heartbeat.

I loooove the Clone Wars figures, for the most part. Yoda is a complete tool, and my Anakin has super-flimsy plastic; those two are the worst of the bunch. Kit is a tad lacking in articulation, but you can't dislike the Original Ladykilla flexing his pecs.

Carded Durge has nice paint, but Speeder Bike Durge is superior in every other way. Too bad they couldn't just make one good Durge figure.

THe CW line is sweet. Havent gotten any wave 3 yet, except for one SA clone. Sorry JJ only seen one and snatched it. I do want to get a few mre of em so I can open them. If I ever get my web cam working again, I will post my collection over yonder on the other site.

Cool. I'd like a digital camera too - but my fucking Hydro bill came in at a whopping 435 bucks. Fuck that, there goes just about everything fun for a few weeks. Piece of shit.

Jiminy cricket... you don't have electric heat,do ya JJ???
I thought it was warm all the time out there....

That sucks man.... that happened to a friend of mine a few years ago while he was in university, one month's heat came out to 350 big ones... we thought there was some mistake.... that sucks!!!

On topic, are those SA clones totally fucking awesome?? I haven't seen one and imagine that STANSE will need one pretty bad, I think I've got one lined up for trade, should be pretty cool...
And I just scored an old web-cam that should work pretty good for some more STANSE related stuff...

Gotta go turn down the heat a few hundred dollars or so... (I'm totally in 400 dollars worth or indignant shock and anger, JJ, you should change the name to LANNY on the bill and let him hang for it)
