Re: Star Wars Episode VII Discussion

I decided a while back that when it comes to STAR WARS I'll just collect lightsabers so some form of Kylo Ren's Sithcalibur may find its way into my home. Maybe the app controlled BB-8 too.

On a related note I came home yesterday to find my 3 year old had somehow gotten down my vintage complete SOTE Slave 1 off his brother's shelf. Apparently he had discovered I not only had a vintage 80s Boba Fett seated in the cockpit, but also a vintage Dengar, Bossk, 4-Lom, IG-88 and Zuckuss (plus all their vintage blasters) along with the comically hollow Han Solo in carbonite were stored in the hold.

My wife said my freak out was both comical and scary.

Needless to say Slave 1 now resides at my office. Of all the vintage toys I surrended to my children I just could not let this one go.

Nerd Parenting Fail...

Sounds more like "nerd toy presevation" to me and with that anything goes.




BB-8 here only :http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sphero-R001R.../dp/B01427MW3O

Re: Star Wars Episode VII Discussion

Almost too funny that I got a my Friday e-flyer from Bed Bath and Beyond, and they have a Force Friday flyer...

And they are sold out of BB-8

And suddenly Bed Bath & Beyond is no longer that place I loathe whenever my wife drags me into one...

Yep...still hate 'em

On a side note, $200 CAD?!? Feck me. I guess he's not the (cheap) droid I was looking for.

JJ, looks like Bed Bath & Beyond has BB-8 back in stock now

You can "add to cart" on the link now.

Also here's S.H.Figuarts if the Assbro one is too cheap for you and the Hot Toys one is too hot for your wallet.

He's already on Kijiji at $300 from 1 guy and at $375 from another but that guy will give you a receipt. Such Nerfherders.

Hence why I adamantly believe they should add another Circle of Hell exclusively for those chode-smokers.

Re: Star Wars Episode VII Discussion

I wonder of Costco will happen to have BB-8. It would be cheaper than $199.

Kylo Ren Force FX Deluxe Lightsaber on TRU now. $172.47 after 25% off reg price of $229.99
http://www.toysrus.ca/product/index....uctId=58237426

I am also hoping Costco to carry EP.VII toys. Costco had the old FX lightsaber before...

Are there difference between the original (now defunct) Master Replica ones and the Hasbro ones? I believe Hasbro just bought the license and the products are still made by the same people who made the MR.

$595.00 is the highest on EVILBAY



EDIT, looks like I'll be sticking to cheap $150 MP figures

They are, it's a sub-section of Greed and Fraud tucked in the back out of view
