|

Looks like we have our 2008 UGH type promotion....
POTF2.com has pics....
Man, I have a lot of questions about these!
Will they be for all 3 lines (Legacy/Saga Legends/Clone Wars)?
Will they be for the first wave of figures only?
Anything special about them other than the '1st Day Of Issue' sticker?
So... let's discuss! _________________ END COMMUNICATION |

when is the supposed release date, it should be posted somewhere to take a huge net for hasbro in one day. i think it is more of an economic boost to them than for collectors, they only added a 1" sticker. i can print these at work if anybody wants  |

Hmmm...not sure. Check the main page here and the link to POTF2.com. They have pictures and some chat going on about the new figs. Someone on there may post about their release up north. If I hear/see anything, I'll post in this thread. |

Awesome. I appreciate the help because this line looks cool and no rehashing of old character sculpts so that's cool. Thanks a ton. |

I will have to see them myself before I decide on picking any of these up. I wonder if those that sent away for the Rex figure will get him carded with the FDOI sticker or just in small plain white box? |

Didn't they do this before? I'm glad I don't have much interest in the animated look. _________________ Star Wars Space check it out! |

new info thanks to the Hasbro Q & A:
| Quote: | YN: Are there plans for more Ultimate Galactic Hunt chase figures this year? If so will they be part of the Legacy collection, Clone Wars collection, or both?
H: There are no plans for UGH exactly as UGH has been, but the successor is the "First Day of Issue" foil variants which will be available for the Clone Wars and Legacy/Droid Factory lines on 7/26. Beyond that we don't have plans for UGH in Fall '08/Spring '09. |
So it looks like the "First Day of Issue" will be for both new lines and only last for the first wave. _________________ END COMMUNICATION |

I know. I may not have the funds for everything I want. It is so hard not to spend between now and then. _________________ Dave
