yeah i agree that as far as figures go, DV = SE/CC.
nothing wrong with that though. DV is badass and if you get enough of the different ones, you can cobble the parts together to make your own "ultimate" version. i think. as for force unleashed figures, didnt those get pushed back to april? thought i read that on rebelscum.

Darth Vader is the SE of Star Wars action figures. He even has two Transformers in the SWTF line. Not to mention kids costumes, a figure in Force Unleashed, an apprentice, lightsaber toys, a figure in the mighty muggs line, multiple releases in the galactic heroes line, and multiple figures in the regular star wars line.
Boba Fett was only in the Legends line this past year, and he took time to find. He was not released that much these past 2 years. Darth Vader has been released multiple times over the same time span, and will continue to do so. BTW the best one so far is the TAC wave 3 version. Best articulation, and he has a removable helmet. There is a rumored multipart helmet version coming out later. If he has better articulation the former, he may be the definitive Darth Vader. |

I haven't collected star wars for a while now but, if any of you come to springfield, you will find a jackpot worth of star wars figures and vehicles. They are everywhere. Wal mart, target, tru, k mart, and even walgreens has tons of these. Sometimes i even see these at grocery stores...

HASBRO SETS SIGHTS ON NEXT GENERATION OF STAR WARS FANS Feb 14, 2008 PAWTUCKET, R.I., (February 14, 2008) – Fans around the world are about to travel to a galaxy far, far away as never before, and once again, Hasbro — as it has for more than 30 years — will translate all the excitement of the brand new STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS into toys that bring this new animated action to life. Lucasfilm Ltd., Warner Bros. Pictures and Turner Broadcasting System will debut STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS in theaters Aug. 15, followed by the premiere of THE CLONE WARS as a weekly series on Cartoon Network and TNT. Produced by Lucasfilm Animation, STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS takes audiences on incredible new Star Wars adventures, combining the legendary storytelling of Lucasfilm with an eye-popping, signature animation style. On the front lines of an intergalactic struggle between good and evil, fans young and old will join such favorite characters as Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Padmé Amidala, along with brand-new heroes like Anakin’s padawan learner, Ahsoka. Sinister villains – led by Palpatine, Count Dooku and General Grievous – are poised to rule the galaxy. Stakes are high, and the fate of the Star Wars universe rests in the hands of the daring Jedi Knights. Their exploits lead to the action-packed battles and astonishing new revelations that fill STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS. On July 26, 2008, Hasbro brings home all of the fun of STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS to kids of all ages. Fans can live the excitement of CLONE WARS themselves with the new STAR WARS CLONE TROOPER HELMET and the AT-TE -- the ultimate clone trooper transport. Also in 2008, collectors may become a droid assembly line worker by building a unique droid figure using parts found in packs of new 3 ¾-inch action figures.
