I wish they would come out with a newer version of X-wing VS Tie Fighter. My dad still raves about that game till this day.

Those games from the the X-Wing and Tie-Fighter series along with X-Wing Alliance are some of the best games Lucasarts ever made. I wish they whould make of those kind of games maybe for PS3 , Xbox 360 and PC.

The old ones looked like so much fun. LucasArts could stick 'em on their website as webbased games give fans a chance to experience them. They updated Monkey Island a while back....

The X-wing series was excellent.

The Dark Forces series was really outstanding as well. I wasn't a huge fps fan but they created a really immersive world with that one (and a good two or three years before Half-Life too)

Did we ever have a Star Wars 6 inch figure line?

Maul always looks like he's having the time of his life. 'Weeeee!'

Hey, I believe I owned that figure when I was a kid, or something similar like that one. On the front of the speeder you could put Maul's double lightsaber . I also remember you could collect points that were in bags of potato chips, and you could use those points for Episode I collectibles, like a lava lamp (not really Star Wars related, but looked cool) and an R2-D2 alarm clock. I used to own that one as well.

A local comic shop has these in stock. Thinking about getting them, depends on the price though.



I'd actually rather buy action figures!

Heh. People have asked Hasbro for years for charred Owen and Aunt Beru.

They actually kinda offered them. Since the same skeletons from ANH were used for Amanaman's skeleton.

I thought this was completely hilarious, but my significant other thought the exact opposite. Check it out if you're bored .

I literally was crying from laughing to hard...

That looks awesome! The cards have come a long way since I used to collect the 3 3/4" stuff. It was around the time of TPM that I got into the 12" line, and shortly after that, I sold it all and got into prop replicas (MR mostly). Now, Sideshow Collectibles gets a huge chunk of my salary. Sometimes, I do miss the old days when figures were just a couple bucks as opposed to statues now which are $300+. I do hope Sideshow also has plans for their Premium Format line to include JJB, Qui-Gon, and a Battle Droid when TPM 3D rolls around.

For S&G's, here was what my prop collection looked like before I went all Sideshow and downsized my gear:

Yeah, I'm hoping for a Sideshow Jar Jar figure at some point also. Since he's about all I collect now.

Also: don't plan to make money on modern action figures. They're worth less than you paid for them as soon as you buy them, with VERY few exceptions. I sold off a couple hundred last year from years of collecting, and made back at the most about 25% of original purchase price.
Damn, that sucks. Even if they're unopened/mint?

Unless you have some of the rarer modern figures, they're not worth much at all. Even carded.
