Sweet! Now when I put together the Mandalorian armor (and paint it something crazy) I've had for 3 years, it'll be canon! Mwa ha ha!

 

Thanks for the heads up, I already put in my pre-order.

 

Picked up Mc Chewie and Jawa at the Broomfield Target this morning.

 

I found a couple vintage figures yesterday. The endor Leia is pretty good.

 

I need Help!!!!

I am looking for a copy of one of the limited edition, CIII Art Prints by the artist Cynthia Cummens... She has this series of illustrations called "The Adventures of the Little Princess." So, pretty much any of those are what I'm looking for. If you come across them in your searches, PLEASE point me in that direction.

Here's an example of this series:

Oh gawd, that's so cute! I WANT ONE!

 

ME FIRST!!!!!!!!

 

Just in case the word isn't out. StarWarsshop.com has leftover C4 merchandise for sale. T-shirts, posters, glassware, and the McQuarrie droids action figures.

 

This will come as a surprise to absolutely no one, but I picked up the "Padme" poster by Jason Palmer from his site. It was sooooooooo worth it! I also grabbed the sketch book he put together when he was working on the poster. Now I just need to get the poster framed.

 

... I don't quite understand how they were convention exclusives if they're just going to sell them online afterwards.

 

Oh, I was with people that saw the writing on the wall and knew they'd do that before the con got under way. And when they were just selling them by the bucket load on the last two days (as in throw the four-per-person limit to the wind) there was no way I was buying more 'cause I could see it then. And there's no way that any of us peddlers could make the $15 price back on them with SWS.com saturating the market with them. Basically, I hope no one was planning on more than breaking even with these things...

 

Yeah, I didn't get any to make a profit.. It just kind of seems like if it's a convention exclusive, then you should only sell it at the convention. But I have no comprehension of marketing so I'm really just babbling.

I found a mcquarrie fett when I cleaned out my car. I just want to know how the heck I forgot that I bought it and why it was in my car.

I blame gnomes.

 

The ones I got, I got for myself. Or my cousin's kids down the road when they can appreciate stuff like that.

 

I just got them for friends who asked.

 

I broke down and bought the Proto Form Optimus Prime figure they had at Target the other day.

I'm guessing but this must be his Cybertron form before he assimilates the Kenworth form or is it Peterbuilt?, on earth. It's still cool though!

 

I think it's Peterbilt. Kenworth's have always had a long box "nose." I remember old-skool Optimus having a flat-front cab, ala Peterbilt.

 

According to Kenworth's Wiki entry, Optimus Prime is actually a Freightliner Cabover.

 

Is there anyone who is planning to attend SDCC this year that might be able to pick up a few things for me????? I would either pre-order, or pay cash for items in advance. I would be extremely grateful

 

Anyone looking to fill holes in their Galactic Heroes collection may wan to to check ther local Family Dollar. The store up her in Brighton has 8 different single packed Galactic heroes figures for $2 ea. They have Darth Vader, Han Solo (Hoth), Luke (Jabbas Palace), Bossk, C3PO, Chewbacca, Green Clone, & Red Battle droid.

 

I finally saw one of the RFT Nerf Blasters today at Wal-Mart (Hampden & Havana), and I bought it on impulse.

They had a bunch of the Stormtrooper ones (only one RFT).

 

You're gonna need it, doing the Endor/Mountain Rebel Trooper.

Unless you're forking out the money for one of the big guns.

 

I'm Demolitions.

 

Are we going to need to create a new thread to discuss various types & gear for them? 'Cause I'm not sure what demo carries. (hint hint)


Although if we are going to create character types, could I use my sniper ghillie suit? I'll be more than happy to create a SW looking sniper rifle to go with it.

And if we need a heavy gunner, and I finish my minigun, I'll have to use that as well.
