Too bad hard case is in phase one amour.

the Clone Wars pack is OK I guess, but the other two are coprolite

Yeah the other battlepacks are definite shelf sitters

good idea on the duel on naboo bp seeing as better versions of all 3 figures r peg warming in 2 lines.

Seems they are moving most items towards the gaming aspect.

See these seem to be geared more towards being "collectible" and not the average crap ass battle packs we've grown used to seeing. Take the last 3 for example, the only one that did ANY kind of sales is the one with the Clones in it and the Bomb Squad Trooper wasn't even that damn good.

Without the cards and the dice, nothing about these are appealing. Like most of us say "How many Vader's do we need?"

Darth Spice · « **Reply #10 on:** March 30, 2012, 05:38:22 PM »

You could do 3 of about anything else but I DO see the attempt at appeal on these, I'm not sure if they're for me though. $:-\$

It sucks battle packs are rehash crap mostly.

But on Friday I used Targets 50% off deal and got the Republic Troopers Battle Pack, its the only thing worth buying that I didn't have yet. Otherwise my local target has jack crap once again for anything new.

This years battle packs are so bad, not a single one is good. It's ridiculous how hasbro has been using TONS of old figures. They must know that all of us aren't purchasing these figures.... I hope this year gets better cause if they keep. This up who knows if they'll continue to make SW toys for another 10 years!

Bloodant · « **Reply #15 on:** April 02, 2012, 04:22:35 PM »

I had heard somewhere Hasbro has the SW franchise rights until 2018, so only 6 years left to go.

Darth Spice · « **Reply #16 on:** April 05, 2012, 12:41:38 PM »

They'll renew but if they keep tanking the line maybe not... Maybe they're doing crap years on purpose! It'd be the only way to explain the mess that's out there now.

Y-WingJager · « **Reply #17 on:** April 06, 2012, 02:37:53 PM »

Unless there is a new movie, or live action TV series, I dont see SW toys on the shelves for another 6 years, the way they are going, and w/ this economy....2-3 years tops IMHO. Hasbro has been throwing re-hash figs at us for about 10 years now, with no sign of stopping anytime soon.

Bloodant · « **Reply #18 on:** April 06, 2012, 09:19:58 PM »

At least the new characters has those nice " I'M NOTA REHASH STICKERS".... I like those....

Nabil6901 · « **Reply #19 on:** April 07, 2012, 06:13:12 AM »

Lol no arguments there bloodant.
