Did anyone else notice there is no Queen Amidala minifigure on this poster. Was a lot of hype up to that figure being released... Wondering if because she is not on the poster maybe the figure will be released next year ? Or as a "special figure" like the chrome stormtrooper or boba fett kinda thing....

What you guys think ?

@ telorc, This poster only shows the winter 2012 minifigures, queen Amidala will be released this summer. (In set 9499 I think)

$10.49 for a sheet of high quality paper? That is crazy!

Assuming it's even high quality and not the same paper they print their catalogues on. Also, that it won't be folded in 8 places, ripped and mangled by the shipping department before it even gets to you.

Speaking of catalogues, this thing is basically a giant advertisement (buy this year's sets, available now!). They should be giving this away for FREE in all Shop at Home orders until April.

Scratch that, they should be paying us for the valuable ad space if we agree to put it up in our homes for the rest of the year. Doubly so because we have to put up with Darth Maul's leering, lecherous mug staring at us.

thanks. i ordered 2 of the planet sets so have 2 posters coming. :)

to the previous poster, when you say "catalog" are you referring to the recent mag. w/ the green cover? im new to this board so trying to learn what all the terms are referring to. im just a little confused by your comment re: "free"..are you speaking about something you actually purchased?

I'm just very cynical lately. Don't let it concern you.
