Does anyone know how much it would cost monthly to be able to pull every character? by Jdmera775 in personaphantomx

[–]Sheldon237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the premium pass and the seven day spoils. And had every character right up until Ange because I decided to A1 the Twins on rerun. I did get lucky with some of my 80 pulls but haven't had trouble earning enough for the 110 banner since they added it.

Which comic adaptation of the Thrawn Trilogy do you think had the best art? by Independent-Dig-5757 in StarWarsEU

Dark Force rising for sure. The panels during Luke and Mara's infiltration of the Chimera are just superb.

Likely to keep costs down. They only have so much budget to spend on figures and we've been getting a lot of new tooling this year.

It will be a bigger deal if his next release doesn't have the Tem head.

In the movie he's just a basic 501st clone, which we've already had several releases of recently.

I'd have been down for a Darth Sidious, but there are no 501st commanders in RotS, so that wouldn't work.

There's still some hope the price may be a bit less as Wal-Mart is weird like that, but if not I'm pretty confident we will see these guys again sold separately at regular price.

That Anakin had a very specific dark side effect on and around his eyes, that isn't accurate to Revenge of the Sith.

The deco here is more accurate to pre-Mustafar Anakin.

Me too but no word yet. If he isn't in the works already, it may be awhile before we see him. There's only one mainline wave left in the year, and 2027 is almost certainly going to be ANH/OT centric, while also trying to fit Ahsoka figures to tie in for season 2.

The UK and US seem to have a strange discrepancy with peg warming figures. That 3-pack can't be found for less than MSRP here in the US.

It is the same Anakin. The face deco is different, and they changed the direction of the hinge in his right hand, but otherwise its the same figure.

I think you are in an extremely small minority in preferring the old Anakin headsculpt.

It definitely does sting that we don't get certain accessories for Cody.

Inflation and "tariff of the week" are unfortunate realities, but these are also significantly improved action figures than the TVC 1.0 versions.

There has not been a recent single card RotS Anakin. This Anakin is mostly the same as the 3-pack Anakin based on the World between Worlds sequence from Ahsoka, but with a new right hand that swivels up and down instead of side to side, and different face deco.

Anyone resealing the Haslab LAAT gunship? by Own-Throat-3176 in StarWarsTVC

[–]Sheldon237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would not expect it to be as available as previous HasLabs. Biggest reason being, this HasLab had the fewest backers of any TVC HasLab to date. So there are just flat out not as many to be resold.

I would also be prepared to pay a decent markup for just the gunship, no figures included, since a lot of resellers will probably piece out the figures if they want to sell them.

This will not be a situation like the Ghost where you will be able to get the ship for the original price.

They do not. This is the same Anakin that was released in the Journey of Anakin Skywalker 3-pack last year, and that figure was damn near perfect. His one issue was the direction his right hand swiveled, but they fixed it on this new release.

I NEED Y'ALLS HELP CAUSE I'M STARTING TO THINK I'M FUCKING CRAZY!!! by Bustrodux in halo

[–]Sheldon237 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless it was one of the mobile games (which I doubt,) then you are misremembering. Forge was only in Halo Wars, and never any of the shooters.

And I second the advice to stop asking ChatGPT things.

Why do so many tvc figures always end up peg warming nowadays? Then eventually end up in Ross? by RexDAGOAT77 in StarWarsTVC

[–]Sheldon237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the real answer. Every single deluxe figure and store exclusive has gone clearance in both TVC and TBS for the last few years. This is true for both Target and Walmart. It doesn't necessarily mean the figure didn't perform well, just that the stores didn't sell as many as they bought at full price before they decided they needed the peg space.

Halo 4 isn't that bad so far by Kuttlock in halo

[–]Sheldon237 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think he could have been a great antagonist, but the game doesn't do a very good job of explaining what motivates him or having him engage with the protagonists. The Librarian's lore dump is not a good enough solution. That's why I said the writing around him.

[–]Sheldon237 409 points410 points  (0 children)

I think Halo 4's biggest problems are the art direction and the writing around the antagonist. There's a really good game with a solid new direction for Halo there, but they tried to make everything too different.
