Hey guys check out this brand new website a buddy of mine has just launched.  Its called Geek Gift Registry.   Its a great tool for us collectors.  As you know it is nearly impossible for our friends and loved ones to buy us a collector gift as they have no idea what we want or already have.  Here you can set up a registry of your wish list and forward to all your friends.  They can then just click the link and order the perfect gift for you!! Great idea!

They will be adding Canadian e-tailers including the big guys like Amazon and Walmart soon.

Hi Guys,


I am looking to collect all of the Original 12 Figures in the Gentle Giant Jumbo Format.  I am in need of Sand People, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Princess Leia, C-3PO, R2-D2, and Ben Kenobi.   I am opening them so loose figures are fine.   Send me a message if you have or know of any of these available, the cheaper the better.

A few weeks back there was a discussion about Rebelscum inappropriately posting pics that were taken by Snowtrooper General Brashin. The proper credit wasn't given to General Brashin.  This discussion was a good forum as it pointed out some/many of the issues people have with Rebelscum.

Through it all I was concerned that as Darth McAdam was defending Rebelscum (a website for which he is a regular contributor),there maybe the assumption by some Snowtroopers that he might have been the one to actually send or post the pics on RS. 

The reason why I am starting this topic is to assure all of you that Darth McAdam did not post or send these pics in to RS himself.  I know Adam quite well and in fact met with him a few weeks back; he was also concerned that other troopers might have thought he was involved.  He showed me the print out of the actual email that was sent into Rebelscum.  I am not here to "out" the person who sent the email to RS, but more to clear Adams name.  I can 100% assure you based on the email that I saw, that Adam had nothing to do with submitting General Brashin's pics to Rebelscum. 

Adam is a stand up guy, who I have met on may occasions and a trusted friend.

Sears has had this online now for a few weeks @ $149.99.  I thought this was going to be the Canadian retail price.  I noticed today Toysrus.ca  now has it online @  $189.99.    Big difference.

I was suprised to find these series II figures at my local London Drugs.  I wasn't aware they were even out.    I passed on all the series 1 figures, as they are all repacks.  There are actually 3 new figures in the second series,  Anakin, Jar Jar, and Padme.  I picked up Anakin and Jar Jar,  they looked decent.  I left Padme on the shelf, as she looks like a figure from  1995, garbage!!!

I was wondering if any of you guys could help.  In the last issue of Lego Club Magazine there was a build a robot contest for kids.  Both my boys were very excited and built their robots.  Now I cant find what they have done with the magazine.  I believe the contest expires October 22, so I am running out of time.  Do any of you have the last Lego Club Magazine?  My 6 year old thinks it had boats on the cover?  I Just need all the contest details,  I think it was open to Canadians.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thats right I found them today at a Zellers in BC.  Waxer and Battle Droids, and Special OPS Clone with Geonosian.  They had at least 15 of each.  Go get them, they are pretty cool!!

Our friends across the border have started seeing the ROTJ Vintage wave.    Check this out:
