I ordered the wave 5 case from EE so I wouldn't have to worry about finding either of those - now I don't think I'll ever get that goddamn case.

I ordered wave 5 from NFC, but they havent sent me any notice. I am getting 2 of the McQ figs anyways, 1 to open and one to keep sealed.

Canceled my Wave 5 from NFC and just ordered them at HTS. I got my McQ figs(2 of each) and wave 5 I wanted.

Anarky, is Yoda and Nelvaan Anakin worth the buy?

I think so. The only drawback with Anakin is that they're colorblind and gave him yellow pants. The Yoda is especially nice--especially when you think about how it's similar to the deluxe Can-Cell two-pack, only with better articulation and at a little more than half the cost.

Ok, cool, I will get those at retail then.

I stopped at a KMart near my office to see what kind of crap they had. They had the new comic 2 packs, a ROTS Vader, and some other figures from last year. They also s Titanium Sandtrooper, C-3PO, Grevious, and Blue Clone. I thought the Clone, Grevious, and C-3PO Titanium figures were cancelled. Has anyone else seen those?

I have seen them Nothing special.

Agreed. That Titanium figure line was overpriced and not that great. I just thought the line died out last year and didn't expect to see them in the store, especially 3 that I never saw before. The only reason I ever go to KMart is because they have crazy crap like that pop up on occasion.

I saw the Anakin in the store yesterday but didn't get it since I'm still waiting for my EE shit to get here. This is fucking insane - the first three waves shipped to people before they started showing up in stores. Then they put them on HTS at fucking five in the morning. What the hell ever.

All you bitches are jealous because I got mine. HAHAHAHA


Seriously, thats How I feel when they put them up while I am at work and end up missing them. Pisses me off to no end. I would have really been pissed if I missed the MCQ figs today.

I just checked out the forums at RS, GH, and jedidefender. Very few people seem happy with the Fan's choice results.

It's totally rigged.

After the fishy results of so many of Hasbro's polls, it has to be.

Like the first, where either Ephant or Amanaman (I think Amanaman) was in the lead, until the last day or so, and fucking "generic alien" Ellors Madakk (AKA Roger from American Dad) shoots ahead. And then they show a prototype like a week later. Bullshit! The lead time on a prototype is hella longer than a fucking week!

How many of us were able to find the Fan's Choice Winners #3 and #4, Ephant Mon and McQuarrie Stormtrooper? Okay, how many saw either one?

Or not telling anyone which figures on the now infamous Toyfare poll were already slated for release. I wonder how people who voted for Quinlan, Neyo, etc, would've voted, had Hasbro simply eliminated the already scheduled figures from the poll so that these folks wouldn't be wasting their votes. Or simply ignoring (yet again!) that the results clearly show that about as many people want Yarna as fucking Darth Cobra Commander.

A fucking Sandtrooper was the Fan's Choice this year? WTF? I don't even remember a poll for that. Is that the one that was on Rebelscum? How did a goddamned Sandtrooper, who'd been released two fucking times already, win?

I'm not sure what pisses me off more: the fact that I now know I overpaid for exclusives that will be pegwarmers this time next year, the fact that all my other exclusives will probably be re-released, or the fact that four fucking Clonetroopers at once is going to sink the fucking line! Fuck me, I'm watching Galactic Marines, Combat Engineers, Airborne Troopers, Shocktroopers, and 501st Elite Troopers pegwarm!!

My new question to the Q&A thread over at the other site was serious.

Mrs. Rogue II found Ephant Mon for me and was smart enough to buy 2. I never saw it. I have yet to see either release of the McStormtrooper at retail (not that I would buy it if I did.)

Oh, and I saw the new Yarna thread over at the other site, and how quickly someone came in to defend Hasbro.

Isn't it the Evolutions Sandtrooper from the RS poll? Not the VOTC Stormtrooper painted as a Sandtrooper (except for the feet). Honestly, I don't care. I have enough Sandtroopers.

All I see are the first 3 waves of TAC and the last few waves of Saga2. I'd like to keep collecting, but it is just too frustrating and the quality of the figures I've bought recently sucks. Whoever runs the SW line at Hasbro is an asshole. On top of that, figure prices seem to be back up, too.

From this current poll, the only figure that made the final vote I actually would have bought was the Blue Snaggletooth. Don't need or want the rest.

Question for anyone that has the Han w/ Torture Rack: Does the POTJ Bespin Han fit on it?

I never saw either of those two Fans Choice winners. Got them via trades.

The sandtrooper is from the RS poll.

R2, dont know about the Han thing.

I stopped collecting because of Ephant Mon. So there you go. Proof the fan choice thing wasn't a good idea.
