heard the 18th-19th or around then

Yeah, the 19 of this month. I have the money hidden away within my collection for three cases worth. I am gonna preorder them this week I guess.

Oh, and as for Blockbuster? I got hired on the spot. I get .50 more and they expressed interest in me being promoted because of how I handled the scenarios they put me in. I go to orientation this Saturday, go to training next week on days I have off, and then I start the following week right after my last day at Hollywood. :D

19 eh? Ill buy some around then i suppose, but money is a factor... Im going on a 3 day trip to Maine, at my expense, so ill have to see. I could always sell my rolling stones tickets, i really wanna go to the concert lol. Congrats on the job katarn, thats awsome. Scenarios eh?....you are one hell of a scenarifyer.

What do you gotta do in Maine?

Yeah, I'm glad I'm not into concerts. Those are expensive. I've been to one and didn't like it much. I'm content with CDs and radio myself. To save money, order online. I told you before that it's cheaper, especially since this next set costs so much more ($20 retail vs $13 online? I'm going online).

Good for you Bon, glad to hear you like them.

Dont count on that maul being worth anything for many, many years..


Mmmmm well I'm sure it will be worth SOME money! Anyway I'd like to get a Luke toy and Han Solo and stuff..... :)

-Okura

Try eBay. Most of the stuff, as we told Bon, is worth close to retail price. There are alot of things worth well over it though, but not your basic main characters.

I just might order online to save money. 20 vs. 13 is quite a difference. Im going to maine with 5 freinds just as like a short road trip, 3 days 2 nites. But its at my expense, and id like to go. Well im more into music than you, so concerts interest me.

Yah the maul will have a certian value, but like i said, a long time. It took the figures from 78(9) -85 like 20 years to get to the prime worth, and now the prices kinda linger.

You know I'm into oldies and not new stuff. I love the Stones. It's just that I can't enjoy myself at concerts even I like the music. I dunno. I'd rather spend time with people elsewhere and spend money in other ways. How much are the tickets worth? I say go if you haven't seen the Stones yet.

And vintage SW stuff was big in the late '80s and on. They're still worth a lot, but interest in them at toy shows suffers from all the new stuff. I rarely see people running around with vintage stuff. I bet it's because of eBay or something....

ALOT of the stuff i listen to is "oldies" or as i put it, classic rock. The stones, the beatles, the kinks, david bowie, the doors, the who and others are some of my favorites. (my 2 favorite bands are AC/DC and Led Zeppelin however)
Ill Probly go to the concert.

Yah all of my vintage stuff is from an antique toy shop, but one of the conventions around here has them. I frist attended the megafest last year (i worked it) and ill be going this year as well, i dunno if ill work it or not tho. They had a few boothes with vintage, and they had a blue snaggle toothe for 85 dallors, easily c-9, if that guys back, im gonna grab the snaggletoothe..maybe. and now i gotta do this. The fabulous Boston Megafest is brougth to us by the guys at johnstoys, thats www.johnstoys.com) Your #1 source for all things collectible.

Blue Snaggletooth? Nice. The new one they made in that Cantina scene was an awesome idea. Whoever thought of it should be higher up in the Hasbro administration :p

I love the Beatles and Stones. I like the Eagles, Eric Clapton, Clearwater Credance Revival and stuff like that.

I actually never got that 3 pack at target.

I cant beleive i forgot the Eagles and CCR, and Eric Clapton (but when he was in Cream mostly..In the white room....) CCR is easily in my top 10 for bands...easily, i love fortunate son. And hotel california, desperado (lol or in elaines case witchy women), and life in the fast lane...ahh the Eagles. You like good music.

That's because it was from K-Mart ;)

And yeah, I like to think I like good music too. I only listen to it when driving really. I'm not a music on the PC kinda guy. I have the TV on to listen to.

Damn American people.
We didn't even have that many SW toys in Finland.

Crap i hate being wrong, i knew it was K-mart. I got the first 3 pack there, but theres no K-mart around me so i never go. The one time i went, i got the first 3 pack.

I alternate between TV and Music, depednign on the time. from 6-8 sein, sein, sein, simp. 8-11 music (maybe, unless theres something awsome on) 11 family guy, futurama, SNL..

I see.... Well, it's also not just a tv room, it's the living room. Everyone's here so the TV is most likely to be on and music disturbs them. We don't have headphones for the PC either....

I actually got that K-Mart thing when applying for a job there. I never did finish the application because I saw this one kid who I hate worked there. Last I heard he dropped outta school and ran away or some crap like that. He was messed up....

Ahh, my Pc is in my room...soo..it doesnt matter.

I wouldnt wana work at k-mart, they all seem so ghetto and messed up.

Ive got my PC,Xbox,ps2 all in my room and next to each other so i can live hear all night :D

They are around here as well. But they paid like 7.25 starting and their hours were decent.

Yah i can live in my room too, PC, xbox, Ps2, i still have a vcr. a tv, my collection, a mini fridge, dvd's...alot of em, and my cd player, everything a young man needs.

thats good starting, damn.

Its school holidays (summer) atm so i stay up till 2am or even as late as 5am posting on these forums and playing xbox (kotor2 atm)

Yeah it is. And awesome room. Mine's alot smaller than yours. My bed takes up almost a quarter of it. Then I have my stuff.... I practically live in the basement if I'm not on the PC. TV, XBOX, VCR, SNES.... err, toilet :p

yah um usually on here til 3, katarn knows lol. Then ill either watch tv or play doom3 lately. Kotor2, i should finish, im almost done.

My room IS my basement lol.

Yer its a good game, i got it yesterday, ive already done 23 hours :S. I play too much

I've slept in my basement but it smells kind of. All the animals. My dragons don't stink since I moved the crickets to my garage but there's guniea pigs and nasty crap.

Yer its a good game, i got it yesterday, ive already done 23 hours :S. I play too much

My game took me 43 hours to beat. Did it in a month. My friend (different one from my last post in that other topic, he's our buddy though and we saw RotS together with my dad) got it used off eBay and his game also took 43 hours. He did it in less than a week ;) He almost got me into Guild Wars, but thank God he didn't. I'd waste all my time there playing a repetative game rather than doing so here talking about nothing :p

43 hours, ill have that within 2 days probably :D

The first game only took me 36 hours. I felt there was more to do in this one, but the character interactions weren't as good. The story was a pretty decent follow up. I enjoyed it. The end was a bit anticlimatic but whatever. I think it's a great game. They're gonna be making minis from the Golden Age (KotOR era). I dunno if I want to get those.... They're coming in the 'Champions of the Force' set. No release date on that. I heard Dec a while ago. More news will develop after Universe Huge has been out for a while. If you like EU, that set'll be for you since 60% of it will be from outside of the movies. Phase I and II Darktroopers are gonna be in it :cool: I can only pray a Jan Ors will come too.

Kotor1 took me 25 hours but i rushed it :S

I didn't do every side quest. I got the gameguide half off for getting it the first day it came out. I read through it after I beat it. I missed two or three quests. Not bad. This one I'm confident I got just as much done, if not the whole shebang. I wouldn't waste my money on another guide. Gladius is the only game I thought the guide was worth having for. You ever play that game? It's great ;)

Get online guides!

They suck compared to this. This walks you step by step for everything. Online authors are so biased. They say something sucks and tell you not to use it but fail to list the good things about it. This game guide tells of the pros and cons of every warrior and weapon and recommends some the best tactics and who works well with who. And the artwork in the guide? Beautiful! As for a KotOR II guide online? I just don't care enough to look.

We're way off topic now. We best get back to talking SW toys I guess ;)

hmmm, a convincing argument :D

Yer SW Toys...

I didnt know 2 new mini sets were coming, whats this 2nd one?

Champions of the Force is mostly EU as I said. It's going to introduce the last two factions for the game. So far there is Rebels, Imperials, Republic, and Separatist. Universe Huge is gonna give us the New Republic and Yuuzhan Vong. Champions of the Force is going to have at least the Sith as a faction. People like Exar Kun and those dead folks you heard about from KotOR? They were in a comic series in the mid 90s. Hopefully some KotOR guys, like Bastila, will be included. That'd make me more interested in getting them as well.

And it was confirmed at CIII that after the set that has the Phase III Darktrooper (he's confirmed to be in UH), the following set (CotF) will have the other two versions.

im a little confused but sounds cool, i'd like some kotor character figures!

Whats CIII?

Celebration III. The first SW Celebration was before TPM was released in Colorodo I beleive. The second before AotC was in Indiana. The third, just this year before RotS, was also in Indiana. I did not go to either of the last two, even though it's only a few hours drive.

oh right cool,

i just got to a really weird point in kotor2

Kreia killed the council :S

I wish i went to any of the celebrations, if it were a few hours away i definaly woulda gone.

I Wish they were in England :P

oh right cool,

i just got to a really weird point in kotor2

Kreia killed the council :S

Err... You shouldn't post spoilers like that. if you insert spoilers into this without spaces: [ spoiler ]Blah Blah Blah[ /spoiler ], you get this: I know, that part of the game was surprising, even though I suspected her all along of being evil Highlight to read that

I didn't really care to go to the Celebrations. Hey, did I tell you what I did miss out on? On the day of my graduation party, there was a screening of RotLA in Chicago. My dad didn't mention it until the party was over. Screw that! I can spend time with family anytime. How often does Indy get shown on the big screen?! :p

I Wish they were in England :P


I wish that as well, in the US they get that and they get comic con as well. We get no big things.

Where abouts in England are you Bastilla?

In the first 36 hours of having Kotor2 i played 26 :S

Meh, this whole area is designated to specifics of SW toys. This can now be our official off topic, AIM-like dealie. It's faster than email and sending PMs...
