Re: TVC General Discussion Thread.

actually picked up bly a few weeks back from the battle of falucia battle pack

[Jcc2224]

That's a good pack. I got that years ago and lost all the little pistols to the troopers over the years, but finally found them all/found replacements (thanks to the SL lockers and weapon packs). Now they are some of my favorite clones.

[endor]

glad you found the weapons....and i too am gratefull to those weapons packs,very handy indeed

[Jcc2224]

Yeah. I may use some extras I have from those and make some custom weapons and gear. I have no issue cutting up (extra) weapons, but I do with figures.

[endor]

have you tried looking at "maurarder gun runners" they do 3 3/4 scale wepons and accessories,granted its mostly real world stuff but a few sci-fi weapons including none other than megatron from the transformers in gun mode.i actually have my cobra commander from gi.joe resolute holding him

[Jcc2224]

Meh, it would be more fun for me to make them myself.

[endor]

and why not,make your weapons to your own specs,ha ha

[Jcc2224]

Yeah. I'm thinking about making something, but don't know what yet...maybe the navy Commando gun in TFU?

[endor]

ooohh,nice

[Jcc2224]

Yeah.

Anyone hear that the TPM wave has been found?

[endor]

when and where were these released.really like the darth sidious card

[Jcc2224]

They were supposed to be released early next year, but someone in Arizona (US) found them early. This was recent.

[endor]

i notice there appears to be a target sales reciept in the pic,that could cause trouble if these were sold early without hasbros permission

[Jcc2224]

I think stores are entitled to sell them when want unless a specific date is told to them, like Midnight Madness '08.

[endor]

true enough i suppose

[Jcc2224]

Yeah.

So what figures are you wanting from this wave? me, Dofine, Battle Droid, Obi-Wan, Maul, Naboo officer, and that's it.

[endor]

same as you as well as quinlan voss and sidious

[Jcc2224]

If Sidious would of had an alternate "deformed" head, I would get it.

[endor]

i think it looks better than the current 1,maybe you can swap the heads over

do you open yours or keep them carded?

[Jcc2224]

I open figures, mostly. Few I keep carded, like TVC Cody, 501st Stormtrooper, TVC Ponda Baba, and a few others.

[endor]

i normally buy 2 of a figure,1 to open and 1 to keep carded,or if its either a different variant such as boba fett [esb and rotj] or on a different card back i tend to buy 2 of the variant for same reasons and if its a trooper a buy a lot but keep 1 carded

[Jcc2224]

I'm not like that. I have many rather rare figures I bought carded (RFT, Bastila, Fordo, etc) and unpackaged them.

[endor]

each to there own.im just a sucker for the vintage style as im old enough to have had and remember the originals from the 70s and 80s

[Jcc2224]

I wasn't around then, even though I do love the vintage cardbacks. I may get them all out, cut off the bubbles, and hang them up. Should I do that?

[endor]

entirely up to you my friend,i know i would as thats what i do with my carded figures,have them all mounted on the wall so they dont take up valuable shelf space
