So it won't sell well, go on clearance, and be great custom fodder The body sculpts are nice, even if the articulation is bad and the heads ill--proportioned.where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

Anyone who sunk so low as to try and hijack the auction and take what magnum bought fair and square should be derezzed. Oh please, it was a dig at the a**holes who even tried. My point being, if they were so determined, I'm surprised all they could offer up is a measly hundred bucks. Sorry I didn't insert a in there somewhere to keep you from having an aneurysm. Anyway, I can see this thread heading in the "Toys Found at Retail" direction. I don't e-bicker, so let me just say congrats to magnum for the epic score and take my leave. =)

It was easy to assume you were being serious. Tone in text can be easily misinterpreted if you aren't fully clear, and emoticons help with that. So yeah, it probably would've helped to add a .

Spin Masters did figures with near perfect articulation, all of which had unique sculpts. Yes I hate them for not giving us the Castor they teased, and I hate the fact that series 3 and beyond won't ever come to pass, but they had potential and gave us some good products.

Yeah those Pirates OTC figures were horrible! Compared to the Tron figures, the Tron figures were near perfect!

Probably shirts, mugs or plushes?

WOW!! Absolutely awesome!!

Congrats, and thanks for sharing the great photo! I love the picture they used on the box!

Just saw 'Legacy' again this past weekend in Boston, on the largest IMAX screen in New England and it was mind blowing. Castor looked even better in IMAX 3D!

Sent measurements for my Castor core figure package to Oscar's cases website. They have some cool acrylic cases for different series star wars figures so gave them a shot. Also looked into a custom case for my Clu + Castor action pack. Think it will be neat to display them side by side.abortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

Yes, incredible ironic!

I stopped by my local Toys R' Us today and they still have everything full price.

Really looking forward to seeing close up photos of the head sculpt if this will be forthcoming.

Absolutely awesome find!

Great! Thanks Magnum!

So i am wondering now if someone can tell me the known reason as to why the Castor figures were not allowed to be released? I tried looking in other threads and did'nt see anything, although i found one post that mentioned 'legal issues' with it.

Was the actor who played the character not keen on having himself as a action figure...or was Disney not happy with the final version? From what i have read here on this Forum, 300 or so were made but had to be pulled from distribution and destroyed. Can anyone shed any more light on this?

Such a shame that this figure was shelved, as it is one of the most memorable characters from the film and i know several here would love to have one in our collections.

Have you received this yet? Please share pics when you do.

Was it just me or did anyone else think he looked like something out of David Bowie's Aladdin Sane era? Michael Sheen would be fantastic in a biopic about Bowie, I think.

Me too!! I am a Bowie freak, and definately picked up that vibe from Castor. Even the HAIR was perfect...!

Thanks for the backstory related to the figure...i have been wondering what the issues were in it's delay.

Looking forward to future photos!

The David Bowie resemblance is one of the things that makes me sad we'll never see this figure on store shelves/pegs.
