Love your avatar, I have had the movie for about 20 years, and make it a habit to watch it about every 6 months

The clear purple with the other colors in combination look GREAT.
The "chases" definitely out-do the regular releases on these!

here are some pics - it's some old glow rubber string stuff that I got sent as a christmas present from a distant relative yeaaaars ago; that being said, don't PM me asking where to buy it, I have no clue and this is the last of my stash.
it's seriously like 8 years old so it doesn't glow too well anymore, but I dig the effect both in light and dark.

I'm all good on both sets as of yesterday. Andy - You may have missed the boat!
I'm sure they'll pop up in the B/S/T here.

It doesn't show in photos online, but if you look at the red parts of the regulars upclose, there's a slight metallic nature to them, which makes them all the better!
Brought the gray ones up a notch for me.

Anyone else having trouble with super wonky peg legs?
More than any other pirate I have, I need to support these guys with their hooks to stand up straight.

i have a couple that don't stand very well... usually i put a little something (like a tiny folded piece of paper) under the peg leg. stays up pretty good after that

My set finally came - I'm luvin em! No problems w/ fainting pirates, so far. The clear vinyl is soft - maybe it gives a little over time?

My rainy day pirate is the only one that remotely has any issues with balance, but for the most part, stays up. All others are completely fine.

I finally got my set in the mail the other day. I know a few people said the regular version of the wing was boring but I strongly have to disagree. I think this set is so sick. One of my favorite SW releases to date. They smelt really great, it was a long and hot flight from Japan.
