This exactly what I imagine she would have looked like if Kenner had made her!
I am watching this one, might bid too.

This actually looks like a VERY good deal!! I know the shipping seems pretty pricey, but if a few people wanted to all go in on it from the group, splitting it up would be pretty cheap.

Land of the Jawas! Cool!
Total will be 240 with shipping? How should we split up the final cost and items? I mean if we get enough people onboard...

I guess it would depend on how many people. I have a few items in mind, so there would have to be some discussion about who would get what. We would have to figure out who to ship it too, then how much it would be to ship what to who.... lol.
I'll come out and say it, Darth Father and I have split an aution before. I think it worked out pretty well. What were your thoughts, DF?
I would say split it equal. 3 people, devide by 3, so on. I know there is a lot of stuff, and the Falcon looks complete from what I can see in the pics. Can't tell if the Y-Wing has a bomb, but looks like the top gun is missing. Again, hard to tell what is in those little boxes.

Nice! I like the brain worm too! I swear I am just going to sell all of my Jedi and replace them with the clone wars version! The animated sculpting is getting phenomenal. Hasbro is really kicking booty on these clone wars figures.

It has always been easier for them to nail animated sculpts. I think it has something to do with the artwork. Easier to sculpt a drawing instead of real life 3D people.

My understanding is that for the animated sculpts, since the show is all cg they have 3d models to work from as reference points. Imagine having a wireframe model onscreen that you could spin, rotate, and zoom in on. You'd be able to do a lot better of a job reproducing that in plastic as opposed to working with screenshots from odd angles.

WHAT!?!?!
Man I have not seen these in stores since about 5 days before Christmas. I would have grabbed it for that price too! Not even a flinch. Probably would have kept it too!

Toy Fair coverage of the New Hasbro figures and vehicles thanks to Chris over at Sandtroopers.com.
I am TOTALLY impressed with this stuff, especially the vehicles and clone wars line.

That was really cool to follow him in every step. The figure came out looking awesome! I hope now that he has it down, he will make some to sell. I might really be interested in one.

Hey guys,
I have managed to stay in contact with Darth Myles. He is still not fully back online, but does want me to pass on a big HELLO to everyone.
He also asked me to pass along a few photos, so you can see he is still enjoying the hobby, and having fun.
I am not too sure about which car that is. Next time I talk with him, I will ask. It looks pretty sweet, and with the lights, I doubt it is one of the Hot Wheels ones.
