It looks like the armor is gonna have a lot of customization potential. It looks like there are several interchangeable pauldrons and cuirasses.

Same. Now, will she be like Yarna d'al' Gargan, or will I not see her at all? That bees the question.

I guess it depends on production numbers. I didn't think Mara Jade would be easy to obtain, but it's still in stock on HTS.

Nowhere around here seems to be stocking current SW figures.

They said that they planned on 4" but could be convinced to go 6". so hopefully the outcome may be a little stacked towards 4". they have done all their new lines in 4". OSM & power lords.
Jakks Pacific has the license for Zelda and stated there would be new figures this spring. Hopefully those are in 1:18 if at all. Not much has been said about them since they got the license.

Nice! I know 4H does the Outer Space Men in 4", but they really shine with the 6". I needs me those skulls in 4"!

Knowing Jakks, chances are they aren't going to be good. I can only hope though.

Nowhere is stocking star wars stuff, period. TRU has some, and mostly exclusives but walmart and target is practically void of it. I have been searching like crazy for the 6" black Fett to no avail. All they have left is the shitty leftovers from that case.

Once they release the 6" Bikerscout and speeder bike, I'm gonna kick ass over it.

I was reading a Hasbro Q&A about Star Wars and someone asked about adapting Joe style articulation to Star Wars. In the comments, it was funny reading everyone bitching about how horrible Joe articulation is. Personally, I don't know how anyone could enjoy those stiff midget statues with giant heads, but I thought it was hilarious how defensive it got.

Every fandom is going to be like that, though.

Star Wars figures suck. I despise T-crotches and those stupid single-joint knees, and the proportions are awful. Not that all Joe figures are awesome, and I am not really into Star Wars, but I've never wanted to buy a SW fig for anything besides parts due to the crap articulation.

True. But I do think the best SW customs are ones that use Joe parts. Lately I've been trying to find a good Jango for a custom and there isn't a single one I'm willing to use. Proportions, detail, lack of movement, etc. just bother me.

Anybody else see that Rambo?! Holy hell.

The one shot I saw made him look like Phil Lynott. Did you see the Robocop 3 Robo with Cobra Assault Cannon?! I'd really like some info on this Retro Horror line they've hinted at.

Don't know if I missed it somewhere in the thread, but any word on Merit's booth?
