I fear now that the printed eyes on C-3PO are going to be like the "shifty" clone eyes (the ones looking left and right) except that it will be even more obvious. I can't help but think that the picture from hothbricks makes it appear that 3PO is rolling his eyes.

You're right, it does look like 3PO is rolling his eyes! Usually I'd be annoyed at misprints like that, but that face would be perfect for my funnies! :laugh:

And I really hope that the stormie in the battle pack will have a printed head too. It's the least they can do after not giving him leg print. :hmpf_bad:

Strange that the Jedi Interceptor is not listed. I was really hoping that there might be a more detailed look at the new Kenobi.

Makes this tiger think....store exclusive....which makes sense....yes, TRU again.

Notice that the battle packs were two different prices ? :look:

The Y-wing is also not listed,because they are store exclusives,anyone know wich stores would get them?

Onw @ Walmart and the other @ Target. Just like every other year. :hmpf:

Yeah, I couldn't help but notice that too. Made me chuckle. :laugh:

I just saw that...as an OT guy, that is rather unfortunate.

My last hopes for C-3PO to be actually good-looking have just been obliterated.

Unless you're European, then the discussion on where exclusive ends means absolutely nothing as it IS NOT THE SAME IN EUROPE! :tongue:

Nor the rest of the world for that sake - it's not even the same from country to country -do I have to go on to prove my point here?

Hollander · December 7, 2011

The stormtrooper face print...? Yech! The first thing I'm going to do is replace this head with the current stormtrooper one.

So....just a black head? :laugh:

Execution does need work...but it was a good idea.

Given his attitude, it's a pretty accurate representation of him. :laugh:

Hmm, not sure about the new head. They're much more intimidating faceless, and we've never seen them without helmets in the movies.

Oh well, I guess you could just turn their heads around and they'll be faceless again.

Given the old heads, it's not like the helmets were ever off anyway. Just keep the helmet on like always.

The problem I have with the faces is that they don't need to be seen, but by TLG making them this way they likely cost more to make. Pointless faces adding to the cost of a set.

Brickmamba · December 8, 2011

sand stormie with printed face, yes!

c3po with dorky wondering eyes, no :thumbdown:

I think it will be alright if you get one printed right. As desused befor I think I will use the new head on the old body.

A valid argument. If everybody keeps the helmet on the head on 99% of the time, why spend money on something you don't see or use :hmpf: ?

Because its cool, and if it's there people will more likely use it if its there. I mean, anyone who has Jango probably had his helmet off more so you could see his face, rather than keep his helmet on.

Really? I would do the exact opposite! :laugh:

Anyways, here's what I don't understand. If there is a character who can't point his eyes in any direction, it is 3PO. Then why are they making his eyes point anywhere in the first place? :hmpf:

Fighter of Frizzies · December 8, 2011

As long as that 3PO head is a misprint.... though I would be very annoyed to get one with that printing.

I would have preferred a regular black head (OT purist) but I keep the helmets on anyway. At least he won't have any flesh color showing like the new Boba Fett.

Boba had a fleah head and I cant remember if anyone was complaining about it. Athough he is a main character and the stormies are just generic clones or people.

No complaint, just my preference. My Boba has since received a black head.
