Notice how since yesterday, the prices on ROC figures on ebay have skyrocketed? It seems everyone wants them now and they are all going for around $12 or more each now. I got really lucky when I won that lot of 4 MOC ROC figures for $16.00. The Cobra Commander that came in that lot is the earlier version with the holes in his chest and head. And if the black Timber turns out to be the variant again, there was one of them in the lot as well.

I have only seen the first three (glider,claw, wave crusher). Star Wars here seems to be all troopers. Some releases of figures I think they already released but with different card backs. The suckers fall off the pegs too easy too.
Nice new avatar pic. In my top 5 of ROC figs. I hate the armor but love the color. As far as the Star Wars figs go, the Saga Legends set is one of the reasons why I quit buying 1 of every figure they put out. Those stupid Saga Legends are the exact same figure and card art pics they used the last 4 years in a row, just different card designs and line names. The other reason I only get the SW exclusives and select figures now is because of Lucas Arts & Hasbro customer service. Last year when they released the Gamestop Force Unleashed preorder exclusive Stormtrooper Commanders, I went crazy and bought 13 of them off of ebay right away(BAD idea!!!!). I must have bought the first one listed because it cost me $75 + shipping/handling! A couple weeks later I had 13 of them all MOC. I wanted 1 to keep MOC for my collection display and the other 12 I wanted to get an empty case they were shipped to the Gamestop stores in and seal them up like a fresh new case. Called all over, Gamestop, Lucas Arts and finally Hasbro. I asked them all if I could purchase an empty cardboard case that they were shipped in, how many were in each case(I figured 12 per case) and how many were produced. Nobody could or would help me out with the empty case issue, Hasbro stated they will not release info that I asked due to proprietary reasons. I then got a little pissed and told them I just bought 13 of them for no reason now and these are the answers you give to a collector, one of many who keep you in business? I know you produced a ton of them and only released a certain percentage of them as Gamestop exclusives and the rest will be released on new cardbacks next year(2009) either in the regular line, Saga Legends or as an exclusive somewhere. Turns out they did release them on new cardbacks as one of 2 SDCC exclusives this year. That pretty much ended any Star Wars collecting for me(besides exclusives and select clones) and I felt like I showed them(Yah right!). Then I start buying tons of G.I.Joe 25th line and now ROC line. Oh crap, Hasbro makes them too, I guess they showed me :(

Do you have a RHINO? It is one of the coolest vehicles ever in my opinion. If I didnt already have one I would pick that up. No room though. I broke down and got a Raven. Its really cool. My son chased me around launching missles at my Conquest. He has mowed down a lot of Joes with that sucker. The Gunship is cool too. Reminds me of the Helo that comes out of the RHINO.

I sure could go for some jalapeno poppers right now. Might have to make a run to Jack In The Crack.
