star wars "saga"

Torture Rack Han is the golden kernel of corn in the big nugget of poop. This year, there are 60 "new" basic figures, plus battlepacks and the Legends figures. At best, I'll get another 20 figures for the rest of the year.

Did they announce a Galactic Hero's Cantina Battlepack?

Yes they did announce it and it plays music. So far I will be getting Han, Lando in Hans outfit the GH sets and the hoth Wampa/Tauntaun set only becuase I need a new TaunTaun

I haven't seen the pics of the new stuff yet. I'm guessing 20 figures from what was officially announced in waves 3, 4, 5, the rumored waves beyond those, and the Legends line (Boba Fett*, Imp officer, Sandcrawler droid...). I'm going to do a wait-and-see on the Vintage since there are still VOTC Greedos and Endor Hans on the shelfs around here. I'll grab the Snowtrooper right away, but if the rest sell like last years, they will get clearanced out cheaper than $10.

Depending on how it looks, I may break down and get that Tie-pilot/X-wing pilot comic book pack.

Well, maybe it will be closer to 25 figures. Who knows.

It seems easier to just wait for the Galacitc Heros to come out in a battlepack than buy them in the 2 packs.

* - I can't open my VOTC Boba Fett because it was once owned by KH, therefore much more valuable than the average Boba Fett.

As long as I dont sleep with your wife, that Fett should stay closed.

If The Grin has slept with your wife, though, does that mean that Rogue II should open the Boba F...

Wait, I'm all confused.

Wait. Who is getting dipped in the honey?

Its funny how this thread went from discussing Star Wars to wife swapping in mere minutes. Damm that Grin.

All we need now is for Slicker to show up with the mashed potatos.

I am not the Grin so that stays closed. Something tells me that the Grin sleeps with her on a regular basis.

Luckily, Hasbro has listened to collectors and given us one of the Trailer Park Boys in Y-Wing Pilot Disguise:

THAT'S NO MULLET!! IT'S A SPACE STATION!!!

That goes up there with BoShek's sideburns and Biggs' 'stache as far as action figure hairstyles go.

Fuck, I can't stop laughing at that. I actually might buy another stupid Y-Wing, and at TRU's inflated exclusives price, just to get the Lanny Mulletman.

I'm wondering if this should count for five or six characters from the Ultimatum?

Ran · Post by **Ran** » Fri May 25, 2007 2:05 pm

I don't have a Y-Wing yet, so I'll probably have to get this one.

Where is your list from the Ultimatum? Mullet-boy is way better than a green rabbit.

It's SO bad!!!! That's a POTF2 figure AT BEST. Toss in the mullet, and and and... oh I give up.

Exactly.

In the immortal words of Run-DMC, "not bad meaning bad but bad meaning good."

Seriously, that is the ultimate train wreck action figure.
