Title: Star Wars Miniatures
Description: I know it isn't a card game :P

That's right, it isn't a card game, so sue me, but darnit, it's so fun. You can build an army straight from the movies. You can build an army of Clones, Storm troopers, Battle Droids, and heck, even Jedi's. (though it's expensive in terms of building cost) You can even have characters like Luke, or Leia, Anakin, Mace Windu, General Grevious, and Yoda in your armies. As I said, it's a really fun game, and worth checking out, especially if you are a Star Wars fan, and care to recreated alot of the battles, or even make up your own ( and a nice little visuals they make if you play the RPG)

I can't believe I'm the first one to reply to this! Star Wars minis are so fun! There are 2 things I hate about it and they are (if you have read a certain thread of mine you should know where this is leading) LUCK! and prices. Role the die get a number to hit them or miss them. Darn dice screw up the strat of the game. The price is as messed-up as every other thing you buy in this world. $50 for a piece of plastic and a card board card. But that's how every thing goes now isn't it.

All in all minis are fun to play with and they are really starting to get more popular since Episode 3. Infact there is a new set coming out in August.

Drizzt Do'Urden - June 22, 2005 05:16 PM (GMT)
I think that we are the only ones that care Tom.

Tom - June 22, 2005 05:35 PM (GMT)
So it would seem. Oh well. We can talk about it and see if it peaks any ones interests. Lets see if I can wow you some with some of my figures :P Lets see...I got ROTS Mace Windu, all three Grievous' (Jedi Hunter (2 of them) Supreme Commander, and Grievous' Wheel Bike), 2 Chewies (ROTS), a Medical Droid, Stass Allie, Agen Kolar, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Shaak Ti is most of my notables.

Drizzt Do'Urden - June 22, 2005 05:40 PM (GMT)
How much money have you spent on them Tom? Those figures are hard to find. Most of them anyway. I have a friend with R2D2, the Sith Lord, and both Maces.

Tom - June 22, 2005 05:50 PM (GMT)
I actually got all but one in boosters. The Mace I traded for. Sith Lord...? You mean Emperor Palpatine? :o I so want him! o.o

Drizzt Do'Urden - June 22, 2005 06:03 PM (GMT)
Yeah, that's what I mean. Kevin (the owner of a booth in the place I go to play Yu-gi-oh) has a lot of minis. He has 4 or 5 Emperors and all kinds of good stuff. He has a Boba Fett (stupid $50 piece of plastic) too.

Tom - June 22, 2005 06:19 PM (GMT)
Dude! Boba is uber powerful though o.o My usual army is a Droid army, but I need a Droid Commander to complete it, and unfortunatly, I cant get ahold of any Clone Strike boosters to try and get one >.< But it usually consists of a Grievous Supreme Commander, 2-3 Battle Droids, and the remaining points go towards regular Battle droids.

Drizzt Do'Urden - June 22, 2005 06:26 PM (GMT)
I don't have any very rare cards but I will stop talking about my friends minis.
I have a 64 point Yoda, 2 Stass Allie, General Kenobi, Jango Fett, Medical Droid, General Grevious/Supreme Commander, and a 55 point Darth Vader. I wish my luck was in both Star Wars and Yu-gi-oh but its not.

Tom - June 22, 2005 06:41 PM (GMT)
Hey..any Darth Vader is pretty powerful. I'd love to have a Vader >.<

Drizzt Do'Urden - June 23, 2005 01:36 PM (GMT)
I'll have to talk to my friends at the tournament about this site since in came back. Almost all of them have minis.

Tom - June 23, 2005 05:11 PM (GMT)
whoohoo! I'm also working on a Jedi Army too, though unsure if I'm going to make it all jedi or not, maybe add in some good mercinaries, or clone troopers.

Drizzt Do'Urden - June 23, 2005 06:29 PM (GMT)
At the Coolecters Mall (the place I go to for yugioh tourneys) they also have Star Wars Tournaments. They had a 200 point tourney the other day. Good grief! My friend Tyler ( won a regional came in 2nd in another Yugioh regional) was running droids in the tournament. If he had 2 Spider Dwarf Droids, he would've murdered. I didn't enter but my friend Chris ( has R2D2) won and got this awesome board. It wasn't paper or card board and it is huge! He also got a Scenario book too.

Tom - June 23, 2005 06:36 PM (GMT)
Sweet! and 200 points?! With Droids?! Good lord, 100 points alone there is alot of battle droids! 200 is like near 20 droids o.o

Drizzt Do'Urden - June 28, 2005 04:06 PM (GMT)
My friends are jerks! They say that pojo is the best site and they don't need to come on here. Sorry Tom but they are jerks.

Tom - June 28, 2005 04:32 PM (GMT)
Bah on them. Pojo aint nuthin. :P

Drizzt Do'Urden - June 29, 2005 01:44 PM (GMT)
I think this is about as far as it is gonna go Tom. Unless we get some new minis, we really don't have much to talk about.

P. S. I think you left an r out on conside® on your sig.
