New Clone Wars Episode Entitled "Counterattack" airs this Friday at 8:30/7:30 PM

Since we are coming ever so close to the end of Cartoon Network's hit series "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" 3rd Season, the episodes have been amped up in animation, character expression, action, & plot. The new episode this week is entitled "Counterattack". The synopsis is, "With freed prisoners in their possession and the brutal warden attempting desperately to thwart them, Obi-Wan and Anakin search for a way out of the Citadel and back to Coruscant. The prison, however, has more traps, perils and pitfalls in store for them than they had imagined, and they must work together and get past their differences if they're to escape". Not that sounds like a great episode, seeing as it's earlier episode "The Citadel" was great but in my words, average. Till' Friday, keep collecting!

McFarlane "Halo Reach: Series 3" Actin Figure Descriptions Released

New descriptions on the McFarlane Toys "Halo Reach: Series 3" have been announced on Spawn.com. Here is a full list of the upcoming figures....

Single Figures

.Jun

The Noble 3 "Jun" Figure, by McFarlane Toys

 Noble 3, Spartan-266 is Noble Team's chatty, but rock-solid sniper. This figure captures every detail of Jun's custom armor load out, from Scout helmet to Sniper shoulder to Tactical & Recon chest with camouflage hood. Figure comes with Sniper Rifle and Frag Grenade. 


.ODST Jetpack Trooper 
The "Bullfrog" ODSTs encountered in New Alexandria were characterized by their use of UNSC jetpacks. This figure is based on the Halo: Reach ODSTs' early design, emphasizing their affiliation with UNSC Army Troopers. Figure comes with Jetpack and Magnum.


. Elite Spec Ops 
This Sangheili specialist features the sleek, streamlined armor of the Special Operations branch and a dark, stealthy paint scheme. Figure comes with Energy Sword and Plasma Grenade. 


.Grunt Heavy 
 The Grunt Heavy has always been identifiable by its green armor, but the Halo: Reach version introduces a never-before-seen cylindrical methane tank and face mask with round goggles. Figure features removable backpack, facemask, gas mask, and comes with Plasma Pistol and Plasma Grenade.


. Spartan Military Police custom (male) (team blue) 
One of a handful of assets shared between branches of the UNSC armed forces, the Military Police helmet is common to both Spartans and Beta-5 Security forces. This figure comes with the fully enclosed Spartan variant of the Military Police helmet, Gungnir shoulder, Recon shoulder and chest, DMR, and Frag Grenade. 

.Spartan Air Assault (female) (rose/rose) 
For the first time in Halo multiplayer, Spartans can select not only a female voice, but a female body. Our first female multiplayer Spartan features an Air Assault helmet, FJ/Para kneeguards, and a feminine pink rose color scheme. Figure comes with Assault Rifle and Frag Grenade. 

.Spartan JFO (male) (rust/rust) 
The Joint Fires Observer helmet is reserved for Spartans of Lieutenant Colonel rank and above. Figure comes with custom blue visor, matching JFO shoulders, Assault Rifle and Frag Grenade. Exclusive to Toys "R" Us.

.Spartan Operator (male) (steel/steel) 

This Sergeant-level Spartan is equipped with the base Operator helmet with Command Network Module. Figure comes with matching Operator shoulders, Assault Rifle and Frag Grenade. Exclusive to GameStop. 

.Spartan Military Police custom (male) (brown/forest) 
One of a handful of assets shared between branches of the UNSC armed forces, the Military Police helmet is common to both Spartans and Beta-5 Security forces. This figure comes with the fully enclosed Spartan variant of the Military Police helmet, Gungnir shoulder, Recon shoulder and chest, Shotgun, and Frag Grenade. Exclusive to Target.

 Figure Two-Packs

.Covenant Airborne 2-Pack 
The Spartans have taken to the skies in Halo: Reach multiplayer, but the Elites have jetpacks of their own! This 2-pack features two multiplayer Elites, ready to blast off and rain death from above. Set includes a green Elite Officer and a steel Elite Ultra, both with Elite Jetpacks. Figures come with Plasma Rifle, Concussion Rifle, and two Plasma Grenades. 

.Spartan Loadouts: Grenadier & Expert Marksman 2-Pack 
This set is pure Halo: Reach multiplayer action in its most basic form: two multiplayer Spartans, in classic team colors, each with a different loadout. Red Team is represented by a male Spartan Military Police custom, with the "Grenadier" loadout -- including the action figure debut of the Grenade Launcher -- plus an Assault Rifle, and two Frag Grenades. Blue Team is represented by a male Spartan Operator with the "Expert Marksman" loadout of DMR, Magnum, and two Frag Grenades. 

.UNSC Trooper Support Staff 2-Pack 

The UNSC Army has nearly as much variety in its troopers as there is in the Spartan ranks. Series 1 brought you the straightforward offense of the Light and Heavy Troopers; Series 3 reinforces the Trooper ranks with two of the Army's "support staff:" the Medic Trooper and Radio Trooper. The Medic is equipped with the standard Magnum sidearm; the Radioman includes his specialized communications gear and a Shotgun for close-quarters combat. They're the perfect personnel for your UNSC Warthog, or assisting your Noble Six in a fire team deployment.

I Have a Review Vibration Up Ahead...Special Ops Clone Trooper & Geonosian Drone Two-Pack Review

New Star Wars 2012 Line Package Look

While fans and collectors of Star Wars toys recently got a sneak peek at what's in store from Hasbro and LEGO for 2011, Lucas Licensing and design firm PILOT have already been looking ahead to create new packaging for next year's collection of Star Wars products. 2012 ushers in a return to the beginning of the Star Wars saga with Episode 1 in theaters. It seems only fitting, then, that the iconic Phantom Menace Sith Lord (Darth Maul) should land himself on product packaging spanning the entire Star Wars saga. On the right is the 2012 package example. I think this will look horrible for the CW figures.

Target Exclusive "Landing at Point Rain" Two-Packs Found & Bought

Special Ops Clone Trooper

I recently went to my two local Target and found the new "Landing at Point Rain" inspired Hasbro TCW two-packs, and bought both. These packs consist of the Special Ops Clone Trooper, or the "Leia Trooper" nicknamed by the buns like communication pads on the sides of their helmets, and a Geonosian Drone with a HMG turret and a Geonosian sonic blaster. The other pack consisted of Clone Trooper Waxer, in his Geonosis ARF Trooper armor, and a Battle Droid in Geonosis camouflage. In my opinion, the best pack is the Special Ops Clone Trooper & the Geonosian Drone, because they're both great figure in total new sculpts, and the other pack I like because it has my favorite clone trooper Waxer, in ARF trooper gear. Personally, I could care less for the Battle Droid.
