$108? Jesus Christ. How big is this? Standard 1:12 scale, or...?

That said, it looks really loving good.

According to Anime-export, 24cm tall. Anime-export just put up their pre-order for it, and their discount knocks it down to 75 dollars - http://www.anime-export.com/product/31054

Huh. That's pretty good then. The Maximals and Predacons are all kinds of screwy in regards to size compared to real animals anyway. loving Waspinator is like 7" tall, and Ratrap is short, but no where near the size of even a prehistoric rat. I can pretend Optimus is 9" tall because he's a loving robot gorilla rather than a real one.

Is any of this Optimus die-cast? :swoon:

I don't really know anything about Ahsoka since I've never read/seen anything that she is in so don't really care about the figure but what is the one that you are referring to?

It's the cartoon-style one with the same outfit / lightsabers as the "realistic" vintage series figure.

Yeah, much I mentioned Hux up there, I am not that worry about tracking him down, unlike IG88 and Leia as Bouskh, who I had to order from ebay (thankfully legit copies and not Stur Wurs bootlegs) because their wave never appeared due to all the stores not selling the Obi-Wan and Han Solo they got in.

Several of the stores in my area still have Obi Wans.

Which I may snag another, actually. Casting Cave just started selling some casts of other Jedi heads done in a 6" scale, so I may grab a 6" scale Plo Koon head, paint it, throw it on Obi Wan and have a custom Plo Koon.

They also have a head cast for Dooku, Saesee Tiin, Old Ben, AOTC Anakin and buns Leia.

It was rare because it was one of those stupid end of line releases and she was single packed again. Vintage Ahsoka got this same bullshit. Ended auctions show you can get her (CW44 that is) for around $75 loose or $100-$150 carded.

Just an update for you since you were interested, turns out AE is wrong and MP Primal is 19cm tall. Also, I don't think there's any diecast.

I think there was another one there, so I can go check later on.

Did Phasma get packed into another wave or something? The stores around me are a barren wasteland of peg warmers for Black Series and Legends, but suddenly 2-3 Phasma have shown up at both TRU an Target. No other figures (not even more copies of pegwarmers or anything). I guess maybe it's just returns or something... but it's really strange.

I haven't seen anyone from the Venom/Gwen wave in person, but there are WolfCaps for miles.

No clue, the local wal mart just restocked a lot of the stuff. They had a POE OMG DAMERON as well as Kylo and the red helmeted dude and the alien mushroom guy, and about 5 Finns.

I was honestly tempted by the Poe but enh, the only other BS I have at the moment is the walgreens Zappin' Vader.

I remember phasma was kinda hard to get though, so I thought I'd snag her for someone in case they needed her. If not, it's not like it's hard to return poo poo to the store.

No Wolfcap at ALL though, which sucked because I was hoping for a WolfCap and a Taskmaster. A few Sentry, Beetle, Machine Man and Hawkeye though. No Superior Venom :(

Something like 8 diff Reillys though, even one in the old school sweatshirt getup.

I can snag you a WolfCap if you want one. Every TRU by me has multiple copies of him. Enough that you'd think the entire box/wave was just WolfCaps, lol.

One of my local targets had a whole bunch of Jangos and Phasmas as part of their TFA DVD displays. I'm limiting myself to one Black Series per trilogy, so I picked up FN-2187. Nearly all of the Finns and Old Hans had pretty good face paint applications, so maybe there's hope for the Black Series after all. :shrug:

I personally sense a conspiracy. They're obviously trying to make us forget he ever existed.

So he's a character that only exists as promotional items and that one super high-res shot of his face? He's going to be a fan-favorite obsession within the next 5 years, mark my words.
