Not sure, but I think that's it?

Isn't there still those 2 TRU sets? Geonosis and Bantha?

Then if you throw in the Galactic Hero sets...Jabba, X-Wing, Cantina X2 (if they ever show up), and whatever prequel set I'm missing.

[kidhuman]

dont forget the TRU Hoth and Naboo GH battle packs.

[Senor JabbaJohnL]

I'm not sure if the Bantha set is still shipping, but don't forget that it has two damn variations.

I never got the Jedi vs. Sith Battle Pack, so I'm glad they rereleased it. Hopefully some of those eight million Tantive IV and Dagobah packs will sell through soon.

Which reminds me, there's that fucking Dagobah set too.

KH, I'm the total opposite of you on the Jabba set. I saw it tonight, and Jabba was so cute that Mrs A and I agreed we had to get him.

Too bad they didn't include GH Slave Leia. That could be their only chance to do so. I'm not trying to get all pervy, but that would be a cool GH figure who'll never be available carded.

The X-Wing, though, wasn't worth $20 for just Biggs.

I left off the Geonosis Unnecessary POS Battlepack. And, yeah, I guess the Bantha and Geonosis creatures are technically Battlepacks, too.

The Battlepacks this year are ridiculous: http://www.rebelscum.com/TACbattlepacks.asp

Sorry - I hate linking there, but their online collector's database is the best one I've found.

[anarky]

Oh, yeah, I saw that the Dagobah set is still shipping, too, as is one other I can't remember.

[Rollo Tornassi]

Hoth? Geonosis? Dagobah? WTF??

This looks like a "Star Wars" toy thread, but I don't recognize any of those names. I vaguely remember a Star Wars movie back in the 70's but it tanked. It was a crappy rip off of BattleStar that Mark Hamill made before he became a big star.

Why on earth would they make toys from that pice of shit?

[anarky]

Since Darth Revan was "Darth Cobra Commander," we need stupid names to refer to the other KOTOR figures when at the other site.

I propose "Darth Luthor" for Darth Malak, and "Darth Skeletor" for Darth Nihilus.

[Ran]

Last night I saw Torture Rack Han and Endor R2 for the first time. The Han figure looked horrible. R2 has that crappy green and black paint on his legs and lower torso. Both of these figures kind of fall in to a new category of SW figures: Bad figures with cool accessories. I fell for it once with the Tatooine Luke and his vaporator. I don't want to do it again. The Toys R Us also had a Smuggler Lando that must have been a paint error--His eyes were not looking that far up.

What the hell...?
Some sort of variant?
A Vynsane figure preview?

[Senor JabbaJohnL]

Wow, they really nailed it.

[Diabolical]

Wow, they really nailed it.

Literally and figuratively.

Is Hermi Odle tough to find?
I'm too lazy to look here or there to find out.
