As a loyal Hartford Whalers fan, I want to see Carolina go down HARD tomorrow night. I can't stand the thought of Peter Karmona$$ hoisting the Cup. Plus, I'm a fan of the AHL's Bridgeport Sound Tigers, so I want Raffi Torres (Sound Tigers alumnus) and Chris Pronger (Whalers alumnus) to win the Cup. The fans in CT rooting for Carolina are few and far between; we're pulling for Edmonton overall.

I like that even more than the original. I might opt for this repaint instead of waiting for Cybertron Soundwave.

It looks great! Keep up the good work!

The way the 501st clones were done is the reason I'm passing on this set. They're missing the leg stripes, and I'm not a huge fan of the QD mold to begin with. I can't see myself spending $20 on three clones that I won't even be completely satisfied with. I'll just wait for the single carded version or the rumored Battlefront II exclusive.

There's not a whole lot to do with them if you open them unless you like dios. Otherwise I would just keep them in the package.

Nice! I always like seeing Star Wars customs with Joe articulation.

Yeah, I remember hearing this somewhere, too.

I think I'll pick him up. He has an interesting transformation and I'm kind of digging the robot mode despite all the kibble. I'm definitely giving him a new paintjob, though.

I would pick this set up if the nearest k-mart wasn't over an hour away from where I am now. I wouldn't mind having the set, but I can't justify that much time and gas money just to check to see if a store has a toy in stock. I guess I'll just have to order it online or resort to eBay depending on what ends up being cheaper.

Nah, I don't hit the Westport TRU too much since I'm living/working in Stamford for the summer. The Norwalk TRU has expanded its baby section, but the toys still take up the majority of the store. I can personally assure you that it's not a Babies R Us.

I feel bad for Stan Bush...it must be hard to look back and watch this video for him twenty years later. @smilepunch@

I would hardly call the Episode III Sneak Preview figures new stuff, but if yours still has Episode I figures on the shelves, then I guess your Walgreens is even further behind mine.

I just found the shocktrooper today and picked up two. I never get more than two of an army builder in the same day so that other collectors in the area have a chance to get it, too. I try to keep my "armies" more like squadrons, too. I don't own more than 6 of any one figure.

I went to TRU today since it's my day off. I went there on Monday, but they only had Palpatines, Mon Mothmas, Bail Organas, and Neimoidian Warriors. Today they had the shocktroopers, green clone commander, pilot Obi-Wan, AT-RT drivers, Bacaras, and SA clone troopers. I was able to pick up two shocktroopers, an Obi-Wan, an AT-RT driver, and a green clone commander. Then I stopped by Walgreens on the way home and discovered an entire peg full of Tion Medons and SP Wookie Warriors, so I picked up one of each. All in all it was a good day for me! If anyone lives near the Norwalk TRU, you might want to hit it up sometime today or tomorrow before the scalpers grab everything. Good luck and happy hunting everyone!

If brick and mortar stores can't move them at ~$5.99 USD then I can't see how they expect to sell ANY of those. @loll@

Eh, your friends will get over it. I went through the same awkward age around the time Beast Wars was on TV. It'll take some time, but eventually they'll stop trying to act older than they are and realize that true maturity is accepting people for who they are and not judging them harshly.

As much as I love the Buzzclaw mold, this set really bites. I agree that the BW insect molds would have made a much better set.

I'll probably pick this up since it's a nice homage to the original Pepsi Prime and an interesting collectible.

I might get the clones so that I can get use them as a base for making SA customs of that particular clone battalion, but the other two sets look awful.

Sounds neat! I wouldn't mind picking up a few of these packs, although I'll probably have to resort to eBay since I live in CT and don't plan on visiting Disney World/Land any time soon.

I'm a big fan of this mold, but I don't really like either of those color schemes. I think I'll wait and get the Repugnus repaint that's coming out later.

I've been interested in picking up some of the new Hasbro ROTS micro vehicles to add to my miniscule collection, but before I do I was wondering if they are in the same scale as the older Micro Machines. Thanks for your help!

The only thing I don't like are the colors. If it weren't for the colors I would pick him up, but I just can't justify buying a figure I won't be happy to display.

The colored troopers can be found with one color variant per pack of three, but so far we have had no official confirmation that the pack made up entirely of the color variants exists at all. Most people believe that it was just a mock-up used to display the figures and will not actually be released.

I missed the first Ventress figure, so I picked it up for her and the Obi-Wan with clonetrooper armor. I hope Hasbro does a super-articulated version of each of these two figures at some point down the line (with the Obi-Wan having sculpted clonetrooper armor and only a removable helmet), but I doubt we'll see them any time within the next two years.
