	My Leia Boushh bust arrived last week and it's awesome! I was skeptical about this when I saw the pictures but she's my all-time favorite character so I had to get her. Well let's just say I was very pleasantly surprised when I saw her in person. Anyone who is a Leia fan should pick up this bust -----signature----- "Cake or death??

	I definitely plan on picking one up. I had pre-ordered one from SWS.com but ended up canceling the order when the release date kept getting pushed back. Well I hauled in a small collection of assorted SW stuff for my birthday this past weekend. On top of the MR .45 scaled Obi-Wan saber, I also got a few of the M&M Mpire figures, a Vader alarm clock, and a couple of the new Hallmark ornaments. -----signature----- "What's so wrong about wanting power converters?"

	South Bay Target no longer has a SW section for the time being...apparently after the latest reset they realised they did not have the space for SW toys....I am a little upset with this.

	That's weird. I'd definitely address your displeasure to whatever manager you can talk to there. Let them know that you'll be taking your shopping elsewhere. Squeaky wheel gets the grease you know. If that doesn't work, well I'm sure SW toys will be back come September when they start clearancing out the Fantastic 4 and Batman Begins stuff. -----signature----- "What's so wrong about wanting power converters?"

	Darth Wormie, it sounds like you got a good collection of Star Wars collectables for your birthday. -----signature----- "You only regret the things you didn't do. No regrets guys."

	I think this might be a slight oversight on their part. Most of the ones in Metrowest have been doing reorgs lately. I am sure they will have more out soon. Wally Worlds out this way have little to nothing out. TRU has a ton of the older figs and a few of the Mpire. I was able to pick up most of wave 2 except for Dooku and Darth Maul. I saw them at Kaybee but I wasn't paying 8.99 for them. I was also able to pick up the last micro vehicle set the one that is the Target exclusive. The collection is pretty cool. I doubt that I buy any more though. Who knows I might end up selling it at some point. lol -----signature----- R.I.P.

	Fresh Pond TRU... Lots of good stuff here today: Black clone pilots and bpoth red and green clone commanders. For you army builders...lots of #6 and #41 clones, also lots of crispy anakins. Watertown target still had 3 Jedi vs. Sith Battlepacks. It is pricy though...24.99 for the 5 figs. IMO it's only worth is the Asajj figure and the storm trooper armor for the Obi Wan figure...along with a knight's lance!!!! mg

	theforce.net is reporting that the much awaited return of the "REAL" Unleashed line is going to be back in the Spring of '06. Here's a link to the article along with pictures of the 3 new figures. I was very upset when they changed the line to those small RPG-style figures. I'm glad that they are back to normal now . -----signature----- "Light and dark force powers are not inherently good or evil. What matters is how you use them."

	Ahh, that's the wave that was supposed to be released back when they made the idiotic decision to "cancel" the line. All 3 figures are existing molds that they've made minor changes to. -----signature----- "What's so wrong about wanting power converters?" "...and so shines a good deed in a weary world."—W.

	Yeah I don't understand why they're wimping out on the Unleashed line. It has so much potential! And there's still so much more they could do with it. More Unleased I'd like to see... A non-pole dancing Leia (preferable ANH version) Padme from Episode 1 in her maroon battle gear QUI-GON (for the love of God Hasbro, stop ignoring who was probably the most important character in TPM) Lando Quinlan Vos (if they did Asaaj they can do Quin) Obi-Wan (Episode 1) ANH Luke We don't need 2 Chewie's who are almost identical, nor did we need another Han. In more exciting news, my Anakin Clone Wars Maquette shipped and will be here soon -----signature----- "Cake or death??

	A non-pole dancing Leia - I've still got to get that one . Padme from Episode 1 in her maroon battle gear - Another Padme would be nice. QUI-GON (for the love of God Hasbro, stop ignoring who was probably the most important character in TPM) - I definately agree with you on this one! Either a pose of him cutting through the doors on the Trade Federation ship or from his duel with Maul would be awesome! Lando - You can never go wrong with such a smooth operator . Quinlan Vos (if they did Asaaj they can do Quin) - More EU characters would be nice. Obi-Wan (Episode 1) - That would be a great one as it would provide a complete PT view of one character. ANH Luke - Good for the same reason as an Ep.I Obi-Wan, except it would be OT of course . We don't need 2 Chewie's who are almost identical, - I agree. Changing his blaster and sticking a shield in the other hand is not my idea of "new" either. If only they did something like Chewie carrying C-3PO on his back from ESB instead. nor did we need another Han. - I don't mind the multiple versions, I just wish they'd mix it up more. Like a Carbonite Han... although that wouldn't really fall under the definition of the whole "Unleashed" name . -----signature----- "Light and dark force powers are not inherently good or evil.

	Add me to the list of people DYING for something...ANYTHING Qui-Gon related. He was the glue that held that movie together and Hasbro is COMPLETEY ignoring him. I like the ideas Meri posted for new Unleashed figures. Not sure about an EP1 Obi only because we already have an EP2 & EP3 version. Maybe if they did a 3 figure wave of Qui-Gon, Obi and Maul with all 3 bases connecting together? That would be sweet! For Leia, I'd go with a Trach Compactor scene complete with that big metal 'rod' that she and Han were bracing against the wall. Lando, I've been screaming for a Lando one for about 2 years now. You could have him in a pose shooting a stormie rifle into the air at the Slave 1 from the CC landing pad. Not sure if I'm going to continue collecting these though. Thought I'd get the ROTS Obi & Ani but never did. I may just end up selling what I have off to help pay off the GG, MR and Code 3 stuff I've been buying lately. Don't know yet. -----signature----- "What's so wrong about wanting power converters?" "...and so shines a good deed in a weary world."—W.

	If I do I'll PM you first before I list them anywhere. Just off the top of my head I have: - Vader w/helmet on (on original packaging) - Pilot Luke - Slave Leia - Red Clonetrooper - Han - Yoda I think that's it. I think I may have Boba Fett, but I'm not sure. There were a couple of others I wanted to get (Tusken Raider, Bossk) but because I'm such a stickler for package condition, I never found one I was happy with. -----signature----- "What's so wrong about wanting power converters?"
