The Force Unleashed Battle Rancor

awesome chewie! congrats on finding it. did you happen to see if the case said anything about a street date? i'm suprised they only had the 2. which means 1 case right?

I didn't get to see the case close up at all, but from what I did see, I wasn't able to make out any street date stamp on it... I've heard that they'll start putting these out around May 25... and yeah, there's two per case. I'll try and snap a pic or two this evening.

EDIT - PICS!

All in all, a GREAT purchase for $40.00... the only downside I can see is that mine has very loose joints (especially at the ankles, which are ball jointed like the shoulders).

I did pick up two of these, one for a friend. I'm pretty sure I'll be getting another when they hit in mass at Target. For now I'm pleased with just this one.

:wink:

Wow, that thing is a BEAST! Thanks for the pics. I can't wait to see it in person. Still not sure if I will pick it up.

It would be nice to see down the road a OT battle pack made with it.

Jedi Luke with bone
Updated Gamorian
Updated Rancor Keeper

great pics chewie. im truly jealous you managed to get one of these already and from a hottie customer service girl at that. thanks for he pics.

the scale of this looks great and a ll the articulation is crazy cool. this one is definetley a "get 2" itme for me. :D

niktom, that would be a cool battel pack, though id imagine an exspensive one. the only thing id see as being a prolem with it is wiht the layout of most of the recent battlepacks, ie. hoth, endor, etc....is that with several figure real enviorment accessories and a rancor, this thing would take up mass shelve space. but id buy one if they put it out there. :)
 
found the rancor yesterday. i was suprised to see it sitting on the starwars isle. they only had 1 out. i have a feeling someone else did the dcpi thingy. i did a price check on it and it said they had more in the stock room. i figure they will have it on a endcap soon. great deal with the $5 off coupon. :) i knew it was a big guy, but it suprised me to see him next to a 12"

I'm up to three of these now for myself. For whatever reason, I'm addicted to this monster.

Well at least you've built up a great little posse of Felucian guys then, definitely photo-novel worthy if Mr. Enloe ever finds himself in the jungle there he could run into them hehe. The excess monsters can just be sold or given to charity :)

i finally saw ONE of these over the weekend. full price though. i was glad to have seen it in the wild but i ended up passing on it... want to save my hard earned cash (well given really since it was part of my "economic stimulus" check) for the AT TE....
