You know they have perfectly designed, super-articulated, flawless-likeness figures sitting in a vault, and every year they take one element from those and add it to a figure and release it, jus to prolong the inevitable.

I'm not sure if it's rare or just my local stores suck ass. I have it on my wants list for a while... nobody ever had one... and I've checked so many dam stores. >_> I just now found the icecream maker guy wave though.. so I might find a Zuckuss... eventually?

Love the title of this thread.

Haven't been buying SW, but I have been rebuying modern era classic figures I sold off before because I didn't consider them "essential".

I stopped collecting SW about 18 months ago. I used to be a completist, but when the prices went up I couldn't justify buying every single figure anymore. I see Zuckess all the time, and have seen the Ice Cream maker guy. I think it's hilarious that fans got that one made.

What I need is the Princess Leia that can sit on Jabba's throne.

ps hey roland is it this one:

Star Wars Legacy Collection Princess Leia Loose on eBay (end time 13-Mar-10 04:57:22 GMT)

[RolandofGilead]

That's her. I've seen her a time or two at Wal-mart, but haven't bothered to pick one up. Too bad she doesn't look more like she's lounging.

I've seen that figure a lot, not so much recently though.

I haven't really touched my SW figs in over a year, yet i still felt this weird compulsion to upgrade, of all characters, Zuckuss... If there were any Joes i even remotely wanted on the pegs, Zuckuss would still be hanging there... Along with an Ugnaut, a couple of Jabba's cronies, Multiple Clone Commanders whom i can't even name... etc... etc...

Now i have picked up a few Cantina patrons... Those are always equal to Joes... Maybe even better (i'm talking to you Neo-Viper)...
