    Fell for them. My friend who doesn't collect toys told me that I piqued his interest and he's been looking at them online. Long story short, we ordered two cases with the pact to always preorder two cases of each wave and save on shipping. Guess I'll have to wait and see as far as other collections go.....

      Toys like these make me not guilty for never becoming a Hot Toys collector. Hasbro seems to be leaning towards the work from HT and Sideshow etc.

            X Wing Luke and Sandtrooper ... Why must they make so many of them! And in the debut wave of six inch no less.

              I maybe, might, could possibly, thinking about getting the bounty hunters only. Someone bump this thread next year when Bossk is released.
              I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

              If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                Cantina wave is always my favorite. The first twelve were cool and all, but when Kenner released the second wave if figures and announced Boba Fett..... That was when I relized how dear Kenner SW was to my heart.

                That said, whenever a "new" SW collectible emerges, it is the cantina characters that perk my ears up.

                    The Padme is all new but the rest are kitbashes and repaints. The new head sculpt and more accurate colors makes the Luke Ceremonial a fairly big upgrade over the 2007 version, though. All in all, it's a fairly weak assortment. But it's awesome to see something in the stores that isn't the same Phantom Menace figures that's been gutting the pegs since the last year and a half
                    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                      Those are nice looking figures. The packaging is tasteful too. While I don't have much in the way of Star Wars product, I always appreciate it when I see it done well. Those are really good sculpts. Especially when you consider they're only six inches in scale.

                        Thank goodness. While I am not currently collecting 3 3/4 inch figures, I am so glad not to have to see that Vintage Menace wave, as the year and a half isn't exaggerated. It literally was on the pegs for that long.

                          Got R2 and the Sandtrooper today. Amazon finally came through on my pre-order, yay! The Sandtrooper looks great. You do have to lean him slightly forward because of the backpack. All the Sandtrooper gear is removable so you can display him as a dirty Stormtrooper if you want to. R2 is also really nice. As a matter of personal preference I do kinda miss the Kenner style chromed head. He is maybe a little short but not end of the world out of scale as some on the internet would have you think.

                            thanks for the clarification. actually the luke ceremonial is the one that caught my eye. it's definitely great to see something else besides phantom menace!

                              You know I blame you for jumping into the line.....I saw your gentle giant collection in another thread and promised I would not be on the outside looking in for this line!

                                Picked up the Sandtrooper at Target today. Very cool figure. I have one on pre-order at Hasbro.com, along with Luke and R2, but couldn't pass him up. And nothing wrong with having a couple Sandtroopers. Can't wait for series two, Greedo has always been my favorite character. Hope its not long before we see a Tusken Raider, and I look forward to a Chewbacca.
