Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion

I got it off Amazon for $149 before they went full sold out. Thinkgeek had it and it quickly sold out. Disneystore had it, sold out, then they show more now.


For that blind TPM release... fuuuuck, I remember that shit like it was yesterday. Biggest regret of losing out a couple hundred bucks on shit like Jar Jar. Darth Maul was the key figure for folk's 401k's.

Much like then... the sith is were you need to be. I can't find the Force FX Kylo saber.

Sonofabitch amazon had it? I knew I shoulda been on the site earlier instead of volunteering to move boxes. Woulda much rather preferred to order there.

I think the bb8 will be the only thing I'm getting tho. Simply as a gadget it's pretty damn cool (from what I've from the reviews today). And it's only a $20 markup from the regular sphero 2.0 despite the Star Wars tie-in which is pretty surprising. So even if force awakens bombs, I'll be ok with this purchase. At least that's what I'll tell people in 15-20 years if anyone asks how much that silly little orb cost me

No clue why, but bed bath and beyond has it on their site...

If online buying was this big back for Episode 1, I would have saved myself a lot of time wasted in line at a toys r us.

I wouldn't spend $20 on the thing, but this video is adorable:

$230 for the Kylo Ren doesn't seem bad - compared to other Hot Toy figures.

It's a serious addiction. You simply CANNOT stop buying them once you start with your first one.

I think I have close to 40-50(still sealed). Haven't figured out a display option for them, but I purchased early to avoid getting punished later.

Yeah, I picked up Kylo (BBTS/ no NRD) and the Stormtrooper Exclusive (Sideshow).

I still need to get:
- Vader
- Leia
- Han & Chewie
- Stormtrooper 2-pack

I haven't ordered any of the Hot Toys figures from The Force Awakens yet but most likely will eventually if the film is as good as I think it will be. I wanted to at least order Kylo Ren but I'm not throwing down a nonrefundable deposit yet on the off chance I don't like the character or the film a lot. Debating pre-ordering the First Order Storm Trooper Squad Leader right away since its an exclusive but I don't think it'll sell out.

Looks like it's a Wal-Mart exclusive according to Rebelscum.com

Yeah, I just checked and it's not even listed on the website. I get ZERO hits. I wonder if it got canceled or delayed at the last minute?

I don't even know what the price is.

Just get Kylo from BBTS and avoid the NRD. There is no exclusive.

I just like going through Sideshow for the Rewards Points. The nonrefundable deposit policy they've implemented recently is irritating though.

A friend of mine just texted a pick of that BB-8 robot. He got it somewhere down in Orange County. Irvine probably.

Downtown Disney had a shiiiiiiit ton of BB-8's. I'm curious if this is even coming close to selling out in places since it seems that if you're on the search for it, it can be found fairly easily.

Just wondering if anyone has the Back to the Future Marty McFly/DeLorean that was available for pre-order last year.

I'm assuming you're talking about the Hot Toys versions of these. I have Marty McFly but he's still in the box as I haven't decided if I want to display him with my BTTF props. Sucks that I don't have a shelf for misc figures yet otherwise he'd be out on display.

As for the Delorean, it hasn't been released yet but is scheduled to be out around end of 3rd quarter 2015 or 4th quarter. So hopefully we see it soon.

Yeah, they're gone. I didn't call or anything but when I was ordering my C3-PO I went and checked and the 3 nearest to me said that there were none in stock. I also had a 20% off coupon that i used and got free shipping cuz I'm a member. It worked out.

I have Marty. He's a great figure. The DeLorean won't be out for a while.

Also have Marty (EX). I believe they are releasing a DeLorean and Marty from BTTF II.

Yeah they showed off 2015 Marty at SDCC but it hasn't went up for order yet. I'd take it but I want a Doc more.

I may have to pick 7p Marty with that $25 coupon this weekend. I knew buying that Hellraiser statute would cost me more money.
