Are all 56 Figures being released April 2nd?

I was just curious so I know how much cash to pull for shopping this Friday at Midnight but are all 56 figures being released day 1 or are they coming out in waves? I searched and didnt fing anything releated so I am sorry If this is a double post!

Thanks

Joe

 

I don't know 100% for sure, but I think they are coming out in different waves throughout the summer. I wish they would release them all on April 2nd because I really want the #50 Anakin Skywalker on Mustafar.

 

You should be able to find the first 40 figures on 4/2, assuming the store you go to has received all of the different cases that are shipping. The other 16 figures will be released over the course of the rest of the year in waves of 3-4 figures each.

 

Last time there were about 25 regular figures released on the 4/2 date for Episode 2, same with Episode 1....so I assume there will be 20-25 for Episode 3....I hope to god its not 40, thats just too damn many and my pocket can only do so much at once

 

I dont think I could handle buying 40 figures on 4/2. Oh well I'm not going to buy them all anyway. No way I could even pretend to be able to afford that. Oh well.

 

Is there a listing of what figures are being released this week?

Yeah, people have found Mas Ammeda, so I guess you might find up to him on 4/2.

 

What about Lego sets, are they coming out the 2nd too?

 

I saw the LEGO ARC-170, Droid Tri-fighter, and the Duel Playset this weekend at a Kmart in West Virginia, but didn't buy any of them..., so I would assume that at least these sets will be available on the 2nd.

 

Are any Boba figures to be released this summer?

 

I haven't seen any Fetts on the list, hence my mild enthusiasm for this release. I saw over on Rebelscum that Gentle Giant is rumored to be doing a Boba statue this year but I have no further info on it.

 

Well, if it is anything like Gentle Giant's first Boba Fett mini-bust, it will be incredibly popular and very hard to get a hold of! Though, I do want one!

I must say that looking at the list of figures and some of the pics I have seen, it is going to be very hard for me to not go crazy and buy a whole lot of the 3 3/4 figures, even though I haven't been buying the figures since shortly after AOTC came out.

 

I've got both Fett minibusts and I like them a lot. If GG do a Boba statue I will be after it, depending on the cost.

 

Thanks so much for the help, looks like allot of us will be poor Saturday afternoon LOL!

 

Problem is that I am poor already!!!

 

Why are some places reporting the Holographic Yoda from TRU to be coming out on the 2nd and others say the 10th. Also there seems to be two different purchase requirements, $25 or $35.

 

We've got atleast the first 30 some figures at KB

 

"I saw the LEGO ARC-170, Droid Tri-fighter, and the Duel Playset this weekend at a Kmart in West Virginia, but didn't buy any of them..."

Same here, except it was a K-mart in Michigan.

 

The difference in the times and prices for the Holographic Yoda is simple. The April 2nd date and $35 amount is for the Times Square TRU only. Like with other TRU exclusives, people will have to buy $35 of Star Wars stuff to get the figure.

On April 10th, it will be available for the rest of us at TRU, free with a $25 purchase of Star Wars goodies.

 

There's so many of these I want... but I don't like to drop a lot of cash all at once... so I'll probably just buy some of what I want at Wal-Mart Friday night. Anyhow, most of this stuff will probably be easy to come by in the weeks leading up to the release of ROTS. I'll definitely be looking for the Anakin/Vader electro lightsaber, Unleashed Grievous, possibly the ARC-170, and different basic figures... plenty of clones!

I'll probably get most of my shopping done at midnight, since I have to work most of the day on Saturday.

 

I agree with Rebel_Spook. Im poor already too.

 

Yeah I'm poor too, luckily I'm gonna help my Aunt move this week...hopefully that will help bring some more money.

 

I work at Circuit City and have two weeks pay set aside for the release of the new figures and vehicles.

 

Has anyone seen pics of the 12 in grievious? I am wondering what he is made like. Nevermind i found it on a site that thing looks sweet.
