Info & For Sale: What Original 70's and 80's StarWars Figure do you need????
Time
Boba Fett with firing missile is not a figure. There is only a prototype of the figure. I've read extensively about it in collector's guides. The figure is an urban legend. The prototype has been seen both painted and unpainted, but both are clearly not released figures as the body parts aren't properly molded together and the missile firing mechanism is not fully conceived.

Here's some more information.

Right on the other two, though.

Yak Face
Luke in Stormtrooper Disguise
Han in Carbonite (the removable one)
A-Wing Pilot
Snaggletooth variant (tall blue)

Is there a website where you can find these codes for other players? If so, link it up please!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, OT.COM !!!

He will come in one of the pre-chosen forms. During the rectification of the Vuldrini, the traveler came as a large and moving Torg! Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!

Yeah, but she lives in the U.S. She'll never find a Region 2 DVD for sale here in the States via standard retail outlets. They just don't sell them here. Just like you can't find region-free DVD players here. Everything for sale is strictly Region 1. That excuse wouldn't work and would likely just confuse the hell out of her.

Hmmm... I dunno. Should I?


Indeed you should!


Sometime over a year and a half ago, I got in a mock verbal battle with Jay. He was razzing me and I was razzing him. As punishment for razzing him (and because he has the power to do so, and I don't... dammit), he changed my user description to "Bantha Fodder." He kept it that way for a couple of weeks. Maybe even a month. Then he changed it back to "Hired Gun."

Video Games - a general discussion thread
Time
I have no idea which one I'd prefer. I still like the size and portability of the GBA:SP and I might go with that. But both the DS and PSP are nice. They have great features. I think what would definitely sell me on the PSP is if someone comes up with a way for us to burn our own movies from DVD to PSP-compatible minidiscs. I hate the thought of having to buy movies in yet another format. Plus, I've already got my iPod for music. So, it really just comes down to games and while the PSP has some sweet titles in the works, all my old GB games should work on the DS which equates to little necessary upgrading.
