From what I saw on the RebelScum photo gallery of C4, there also appeared to be ANOTHER repaint of the ARC-170 - in blue.
Secondly, I finally found the Battlestar Pegasus Friday morning at a Wal-Mart (one that is actually known to be behind the ball on the SW stuff). As I grabbed it and did some more shopping, it was only a few minutes later that I saw another guy running through the Titaniums, so I considered myself lucky to have gotten there when I did... this guy also appeared to be on the in-crowd and on a mission. Ha!
I also agree with everyone with regard to the way so many outlets are bunching all the Titanium series together. I can understand putting the BSG in with the SW, but the SpiderMan and Transformers really should be in the respective branded sections.

Personally I don't mind the Transformers, Battlestar Galatica or Spider-Man Titaniums. I just wished they were put in there own section. Put the Transformer Titaniums in the Transformers section, put the Spider-Man Titaniums in the Spider-Man section, etc. Non-Star Wars toys should not be clogging up the Star Wars section.
EXACTLY!

Found 2 more Pegasus at that same store today. My instinct was to just buy them, but I realized how hard it was for me to find them and I didn't want to be 'that guy' that kept someone else from getting them. I just hope a real collector finds them and not some scalper.

Found anohter Pegasus on a peg yesterday. I guess they are finally getting to the shelves... or the scalpers have finally stopped getting to them all. Haha!
This may be old news, but I also noticed that the Forged Figures will be back by the end of the summer.. picking back up with Maul and Hoth Luke - and the Cylon Centurion, too.

I think I am up to date with everything on the Jedi TempleArchives checklist, but have a couple questions.
What is the difference between the 2006 General Grievous' Starship and the 2007 General Greivous' Starfighter?
Also, what is the difference between the 2006 Naboo Starfighter (blue) and the 2007 Naboo Patrol Fighter (blue)?
These are the only two items on the 2007 list I can't find, but I'm thinking it is an error on the list...

Finally found the V-wing and another classic cylon. Still no Pegasus. I don't think the Battlestar line should be looked at the same as Transformers or Spider-man--those two are clogging up the pegs, but I can hardly ever find anything Battlestar related. Most of them I had to get on Ebay. The upcoming Viper repaints are okay, but I would have much preferred straight reissues. Especially since they both pull 30-50 dollars or more on Ebay.

It appears the price on the Pegasus has been starting to drop a little on ebay. The new line of SW and BSG repaints have also been showing up on ebay, at not to bad a price in some cases - the hard part is all the people that pop in within the last minute and drive the price through the roof.
The Hasbro site also have the previous wave (V-Wing, Plo Koon, etc.) for sale right now. That's not too terrible of a turnaround. Unless there's a major change in what's on the shelfs, I might just wait to buy them directly from the official sites.

Been seeing the new BSG titaniums on ebay for a few weeks. Also saw a few of the A-Wing repaints a week or so ago. Anybody seeing the new line of ships in their area?
Also, scored a Canadian Darth Maul forged figure off ebay for $17 last week. I know they're going to relase it (and Snowspeeder Luke) in the states this summer, but that was too sweet to pass on for the Canadian release. It appears they're also putting out the BSG Cylon Centurian about the same time. I like the forged figures and hope they give it a re-boot... with a tasty selection of figures, of course.

FINALLY found the Battlestar Pegasus at TRU. That gets me caught up until the next wave hits.

Cool deal.
I still see the small Battlestar Galactica posted on ebay for up to $60. Makes me sick.
The new BSG viper re-paint pop up here and there on ebay, for typically around $25 to start. Wish I could figure out for sure if it's people finding them on the shelves or store employees that are selling them.

Still looking for Pegasus. I see a random Colonial One every now and then, but for the most part the pegs are all stuffed full of the Spidey 3 and Transformers titaniums.

I just saw another Pegasus at TRU last week. TRU seems to be getting that series right now, so it might be worth checking out. For some reason they're shipping Scar the Cylon in the same assortment, so there's a second chance at him.
I stopped at Gordman's while on vacation and found a Colonial Raptor, Leia on the Speeder Bike, and several other things for $3.99. That's a good price, and they always have odd things you don't always find elsewhere.

Over the past few weeks, I've been seeing more and more of the Pegasus.
What's a pisser about it is that Hasbro's Titanium site hasn't updated any BSG stuff in many months. They have an entire rag-tag fleet of ships they could produce, but they're more distracted with Spidey 3 and Transformers.

And today just found the two new Viper repaints at Wally*World. The black with blue markings Mark II, and the gray with red markings Mark VII. Of course, I ws looking for Luke's snowspeeder, but I think these will have to suffice  . Oh, and they had the newest repaints of the SW ships as well (Tantive IV, A-Wing, and AT-PT(?))
