I'm already planning to buy more figures this year than last year

[Tycho]

I just looked over JediMasterSal's list confirmed product list for 2007 and there are already 26 figures listed as coming for sure.

While I don't plan to buy each individual one, I do intend to get 33 figures from the ones that are confirmed and listed. To me it's a good indicator that Hasbro is doing something right when I want to buy more figures than they are individually marketing (even if I don't want them all). So it looks like there will be something for me to be happy about. See : Happy! Happy!

as I want to be a completist (at least have 1 figure each loose) there are alot of figures for me this year. also I have crossed over into the army building aspect of the hobby. while not as large as some people on this site, my troop building is limited to only 5 - 10 clones / stormies and officers if they are different. so this year so far looks to be $$$$.

Me, too, but mainly because OT features heavily in the new line-up. Also, a lot of the figures are flat out new (Helrot), significantly improved retools (Luke), OT troopers, or flat out supersweet EU, even though I usually hate EU (McQuarrie Fett).

If only they would drop the price to around $5.50, I would go pretty deep into this line. As of now, I see 10-15 30th figures, and about half the "Greatest Hits" figures.

heh, now think if that list that's been circulating is true as well....Man, it's going to be one hellafied expensive year!!!

I suppose we should start budgeting right now... (Like some of us did last year.)

Crap, I had hoped to trim my buying from $6K of last year down to $4k at least. Looks like that's not going to happen. In fact, it looks like it might be closer to $7K worth of stuff...Damn (In a good way, heh heh.)

Same here, except I won't get the EU or Concept figures. There are several figures I plan on getting from the Legends line, most of which were pack-ins or VOTC I skipped the first time around. Just counting the first 4 waves, VTAC, and the Legends lineup, I plan on getting about 20 figures plus the Tantive IV battlepack.

OK:

Concept Figures - no - except the Chewie figure might be useable as another random background alien. (it does not look like a Wookiee - and I can't recall if I saw a figure, or a design picture).

EU figures - most of the characters from comics, but not Marvel repaints of OT characters like blue Darth Vaders.

Resculpts - while I swore I'd never buy another Vader or Luke Tatooine, Hasbro's actually managed to tempt me! I will try again to resist when I encounter these in the store (Vader over Obi-Wan's cloak, Twin Sunset Luke) but I doubt I can help breaking down and buying these. Grrrr.

So - 33 figures so far:

4 Galactic Marines
1 R2-D2
2 Lava Miners
2 Airborne Troopers
1 Super Battle Droid (possibly 2, but unlikely)
6 Death Star Troopers
2 Rebel Honor Guards (I don't need these, but...)
1 Biggs Academy
3 Elris Helrots
1 Jawa and LIN Droid
1 Vader on Obi-Wan's robe
1 Twin Sunset Luke Tatooine (....must...resist...temptation)
5 CZ-3s
1 Umpass Stay
2 Luke Jedi Knights (pending)
-----------------------------
33 figure purchase plans so far. 26 different kinds were offered so far. I'm interested in 15 of the different ones.

So far here's what I want to get:

4 Galactic Marines
1 Mace Windu
2 Concept Fett’s
2 Airborne Troopers
1 Super Battle Droid
2 to 4 Death Star Troopers
2 Rebel Honor Guards
2 Biggs Academy
1 Elris Helrots
1 Jawa and LIN Droid
1 CZ-3s
1 Umpass Stay
1 Luke Jedi Knight (Possibly)
1 Luke Concept
1 Vader Concept (Possibly 2)
10 (heck, probably all the concepts & few EU characters)

If true: 1 of each

MOMAW NADON JEDI
KOTOR DARTH MALAK
PRE-CYBORG GRIEVOUS
DARTH RAVEN
HAN SOLO W/ TORTURE RACK
LANDO IN SMUGGLER OUTFIT
A-WING PILOT
PADME W/BLK LTHR OUTFIT
JANGO FETT W/ PONCHO
WOLFMAN JEDI GEONOSIS
DESTROYER DROID W/SHIELD

2 Packs
All of Wave 2 & Possibly 3
Vintage (all 1 time)
Vehicles (Sith Infiltrator) (Possibly one or two others)

That's quite enough for now.

I'm going to be cautious and wait until i see pictures added to archives of opened product before i decide whether to buy anything or not. Money is too scarce a commodity these days to be frivolous and just buy a bunch of stuff without checking out quality and so on.

and then, then i'll wait and buy everything loose from Ebay and save money.
