I'm glad I'm old school when it comes to Star Wars. The only troopers I need to own are the good old Stormtroopers. I'd be losing my mind if I was into all of these misc colorful Republic guys.

Question- I just opened my VC Hoth Luke last week, and it's a great figure,.. but now I need a Tauntaun. None are pricey, there's a ton of every version on eBay, but my question is,... can anyone talk me into getting the most recent version that came in the VC box? We're only talking a difference of $8-$12 here, but all I need is a Tauntaun for Luke to stay warm. The PoTF version looks pretty good and is a little cheaper. Anyone have anything to share about Tauntauns?

He would be if we ever saw him at retail- much less more than one!

All the colors on specialty uniforms for officers looks cool to us collectors but would make picking them off on the battlefield SO easy!

It seems that's always the way I feel about the Vintage figures I actually want. I almost never see them. In part I'm glad Vintage is going away for awhile.

I pretty much feel the same way. Best case scenario, there's a figure I want and I find it not until months after it was released. Everything else that is a pass or a "meh, I guess I'll buy it" seems to come out on time haha

Also, I think that because VC is aimed mainly at collectors it has been one of the most scalped toy lines out there. I often see evidence that the "rare" figure I want have been at the store (i.e. other figures in the wave) but I never actually see them, not even at the LCBS. Only saw Bastila once and that was the first figure I bought. Malgus is a myth as far as I'm concerned. People claim he exists but I don't believe them.

I guess this should be Star Wars enough for the thread.

*Insert cool (but please, no Sam Jackson level swearing) Mace Fury catchphrase here*
And so the quest continues to prove if lightsabers have a shadow or not!

He's no myth, but he's just sitting on my microwave, waiting for something to splash on him and ruin the card so I'll reluctantly open him and stick him with Vader and Maul- currently they're fighting the Black Knight and Doctor Strange.

loving the new Shae and Malgus figures. Not to happy how a lot of the recent figures have been in a smaller scale. But they work well with my Alien Figures!

Where'd you get the Aliens from? scalewise they look perfect- a bit over 7' tall when standing straight up (which they never do except in a cut scene).

those aliens are from china...they suck so hard, amazing sculpts but one you have to put them together piece by piece and then you have to be super careful because they are fragile.

The Aliens Figures were made by Hot Toys, hard to find yes, suck...no they don't...but thats just my opinion. I also have the Appleseed Hot Toys in this scale...those are sweet as well...totally forgot I had them till I was going through all my 3'3/4 inch scale figures today

I agree with everything but the Star Wars part lol. I can't find SHIT at retail BUT Star Wars. We are oozing with Star Wars. We got the Malgus wave twice, and we are loading up on the deleted scenes wave [whoopdy doo]. But we do get shit. Here is hoping I find Shae Vizla soon..
