eastcoast2895 Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 i'm not sure if this deserves its own thread or not, but i decided to create a thread cuz there doesn't seem to be that much activity going on. i'm just wondering how rare episode 3 pilot obi wan is. http://www.rebelscum.com/ROTS0555obiwan.asp first of all is it in stores? and if it is should i try to find it and buy it now cuz it is rare or can i wait a while longer. thanks for the help.
Katarn07 Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 Hrm, I never got one. He's a super articulated figure? The first one shoulda been instead. I do want him because of that reason. I need one to pilot and a better fighting pose than the Mustufaar crap they gave me.... I thought I'd never find Vader operating table, but I did. Ya just gotta keep checking back in stores and new stuff can pop up
ZBomber Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 He's pretty rare. I'm not sure when he hit the stores, but there haven't been many hitting atores.
eastcoast2895 Posted August 19, 2005 Author Posted August 19, 2005 thanks for the information, looks like its hunting time.
daring dueler Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 Goes for like 12 maximum on ebay...or so the last few i saw did.
Zappa_0 Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 yea they are out, probally be out every where near the end of the month. So keep your eyes pilled. They just started putting out the 48 to 53 line, and repaints here where I live. So keep hunting, you will find some soon.
daring dueler Posted August 23, 2005 Posted August 23, 2005 Its all location and timeing now. It doesnt matter that it is out, theres still a good chance itll be snatched up before it can be found.
McCusto Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 I found my Pilot obi-wan a couple of weeks ago when I went to WalMart at the Very back of the pegs. That is where I found my Bacara, too
Zappa_0 Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 They are coming out, they should be out everywhere by the end of september and then we will have to wait for the next 12 that should start appearing in October I think.
Katarn07 Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 Nice pic??? I picked up two Obis a while ago. One is now at the birth of the twins scene and the other is just lying around. I play with him all the time and put him in different poses. He'll eventually find his way into a scene of some sort, just none needed for him at the moment.
daring dueler Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 I picked him up yesterday at the freindly neighborhood monoplizing wal-mart.
Katarn07 Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 Don't tell me you're a Wal-Mart hatin,' union lovin' commi or something. Wait, that commi ending made no sense.... You know what I mean though. I think.
daring dueler Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 well wal-mart had lower prices, then ran other buisnesses out of buisness, and jacked up the prices.
Zappa_0 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Yea walmarts is 5.88, kmart is 6.99, toys r us is 7.99. The only place im gonna buy from is walmart, unless another store has something rare, which would be worth it though. But still walmart is slow putting stuff up.
Katarn07 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Really? Well, my town is probably alot more populated than yours because they still have those low prices and competitors are still in business. Target is the only contendor for the most part. Crappy K-Mart doesn't count. Who goes there anymore for anything but toys, computer games, or last minute school supplies when everyone else is sold out?
Pho3nix Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 I dunno if it's a rarity...But it's hard to find prolly. :/
Zappa_0 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Well I hardly go to Kmart's. But I did find two Red Royal Guards there, so that was luck. There was also that I could have got that first few OTC figures of 05 there, but I didnt go there until I got those four figures off of ebay. So I could have saved some money there. O well, and on to wally world, I guess they didnt have anything new in until last week, which was the repaints and 48 to 53 figures. It took them over a month or two to even get them out. Kmart and walmart is all that I have in my town. And plus its gonna be hard getting out to check if theres anything new out cause of the raising gas prices.
daring dueler Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Man am i glad i dont drive..lol..wait no im not...aww man.. At least im not gerorgia, friggin 6 bucks a gallon.
Katarn07 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Georgia charges $6 a gallon or did I read that wrong? EDIT - I saw the news on Comcast. Holy ****, that's like Britain or something. It's 3.20 here at our local Shell station. It jumped 40 cents. There's a BP near school that charges 2.90 yet. I guess I'll refill the Jeep on the way home when needed. Target is the best. Well, figures vary from place to place, but Target is the nicest around here. A bit higher prices mean it's not as busy and it's clean and not a mess. But you do what you gotta do for toys I guess. I put up with TRU after all It's like Hiroshima at mine.
daring dueler Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Yah target stores are nicer. My TRU is more of a nagasaki, or if it were a movie. "Hiroshima II: Nagasaki".
McCusto Posted September 16, 2005 Posted September 16, 2005 I was on my way back from my Brother's wedding in Washington DC, I was at Dulles, and to my surprise they had EVERY figure I was looking for. The AT-TE Gunner, Battle damage Anakin, and all the clone repaints, some commander bacaras, tons of SA clones. It was awsome, lol. Too bad I didn't buy any, though >.<
