Not in the current wave, I think there's a battle scorched Millenium Falcon in the next wave though.

There is a Titanium series 5-pack Walmart exclusive that comes with the Millineum Falcon and 4 other ships. This ebay auction has a pic:

They already have I believe, but for an older Diecast series Will have to dig up the package pic too see if it's from the Titanium series

They had the Millenium Falcon avail not too long ago as well, but it was plastic and in the Micro 2packs. They also came with minifigures which make aweome pilots for Action Fleet sized toys with cockpits.

Should be able to find a die cast one Ebay or something. Just may not be under the Titanium name.

Here's a pic with the Die cast version (with the stand ) and the plastic version. And a few more, w the pilots that came with the plastic ones. SW minis are so cool!

Dammit CM, you did it again. I'd just picked up the Clone Wars deco Republic Gunship, now I'm searching ebay to build a mini fleet of these things. At least they're tiny. :p

Feck yeah man, gotta love those micros.
They pretty much suck you right into collecting them.
Just picked up the Gunship as well. Did'nt know it was coming out.
Was tootally shocked when I saw em on the shelves.
Only have 2 so far.

Picked these up today

Is there a list somewhere of what's in what wave and when each wave came out? I want to research it a little more before I go nutty bananas and start fleet building. I know I'm going to stick to starships though, no land vehicles for me.

Rebelscum.com is probably you're best bet.
They have each series in waves.

Is the regular Star Destroyer from this series still around much? Just got the Republic Cruiser and the Death Star of these today and I'm really liking them, matter of fact I might go back and pick up a couple of more to form a fleet.

I also recall a Super Star Destroyer one of these? or am I thinking of something else?

Chaos Muffin
02-04-2006, 10:19 PM
I doubt you'll find any regular TS Star Destroyers on the shelf anymore. Just the republic ones. SWca I hope you collect these so I wont be alone with their addiction lol
There's just something about having the whole SW universe fitting into a shoebox that's so cool.

Hav'nt heard anything about any Super Star Destroyers or Vaders Executor but that would be sweet. Would take any form of that thing, even a model kit.
Which would be cool scaled with the reg SD's

Thanks for the info, *sigh* one more fig I gotta track down now :(

I totally dig this titanium line, always loved the SW ships and fighters especially from the original trilogy.

I've seen it several times. In fact, it looks to be the one that's 'left behind' in favor of more desirable ones as there've been a couple of times where I've seen 2-3 of 'em and nothing else.

have they announced what the upcoming waves for the "ultra" ones are? i saw the ARC 170 and Snowspeeder are coming up, but nothing beyond that. that looks like a killer scale to me. Hope the do both the jedi fighters in that series...

i really wish we could get a representation of the SW ship in a consistant scale someday, like pick a size for the falcon/imperial shuttle, and go from there ~ sure, you couldn't do Capitol Ships, but between the 6 movies there's be plenty of fodder.

Never gonna happen though. It's all about price points. So they pick a price point and make any given vehicle whatever scale it needs to be to fit that price point. $20 Collector's Fleet, $10 Action Fleet, $5 Titanium, 3 Micro Machines for however the hell much those were back then. The 3 3/4" vehicles come closest to being in scale with each other only because there's been some 7-8 price points for them alone in recent memory. Every other vehicle line has to be shoehorned into the one price point (Lego aside).

oh, i know. but a guy can dream right.

and they NEED to make a new mold 3-3/4" scale Y-wing (akin to that amazing new X-wing they did and up-scaling the TIE wings), that old mold they've been re-releasing for 30 years just doesn't cut it to me.

The ultra ARC is out now along with the Droid Tri-fighter. The Speeder will be with I believe Slave 1 in the next wave. The ultra ARC looks really sweet too.

I'm already in love with the upcoming TIE Interceptor, and I'm hoping they make more of the different fighters, especially a B-wing.

Man those Titanium utlras feel perfect. It's a little tricky getting them out of the package though. The Arc and Xwing are definitely worth it.


Getting the SW ships in scale has already happened actually , just not in die cast or Micro scale.
There's so many different SW lines one could mix the mall to having the right scale for each (except like you said about the larger ships)

That Titanium Death Star is like one of those toys you hold at a distance from the ship in your other hand, and by squinting one eye to make it seem larger in the background you can almost make it look like the ship is flying towards it.haha

I broke down today and picked up the Ultra ARC 170 and must say I am quite disappointed. To be fair, I am a "pick up and play" sort of collector, and that obviously isn't what these are meant for. However, it would be nice if there was some indicator of that. Honestly, the price point and the location (WM toy aisles) kind of gives the impression that these are appropriate for kids - you know, the sort who pick up and play with their toys.

What specifically bugged me?

First, the fighter is screwed to the base. I have to assume this is the case with all of the Ultras, so that they don't come loose during shipping. Admittedly it doesn't take much effort to free them, but it doesn't seem like that's the intent.

Second, there is little real play value here. The cockpit opens and closes, and that's it. It has two gun turrets that don't move (additional cost for that would have been zero), and the S-foils don't close.

IN the end, it's just a scaled up version of the basic titanium toy, which is simply not enough to get another $20 from me.

Since you have one (though I'm sure it's packed up now since you're moving) do you think the Lego SD is roughly in scale with Titanium fighters?

Go for it. You can rotate the top half so the slits in the laser are either black or green, for firing and not firing.

Dunno, but I doubt it. It'd be cool for size, but by itself it'd be just like a metal soccer ball.

Today I got Darth Vader's TIE Advanced x1 Starfighter. It's pretty cool. I think all of it is made of die-cast metal. It's pretty heavy. And nicely detailed.

i saw those too today ~ they kinda left me underwhelmed, seemed a bit underdetailed and the paint was pretty simple, and the figures where crappy ~ boba fett was way offscale to the ship...

Hm, maybe I should've stopped at walmart this morning. Oh well, I don't want the larger ships anyway.

Anyone else crazy eager for the TIE interceptor? And maybe a B-wing?

The most recent five pack I've seen has a silver Millenium Falcon, a Y-Wing, a Tie Fighter, an X-Wing and a land speeder.

I found these individuals yesterday: regular Millenium Falcon, silver Slave-1, new Jedi Starfighter, Queen's Royal Starship, AAT and Sith Infiltrator.

Just bought a few today and now I feel hooked! I started out my collection w/ Vader's TIE fighter, Imperial Shuttle, AT-AT, Wookie Flyer, AT-TE tank, and the limited Republic Gunship. Going back tomorrow morning to Wal-Mart for the white TIE fighter. Also hitting a local toy show...if I have any $$ left I'll pick up that Wal-Mart 5 pack as well.

I'm finally caught up with new stuff for now. Got Anakin's and Obi Wan's fighters, the Falcon... I think those were all from the latest wave. Just got to catch up on few older ones (Star Destroyer!!) and I'll have pretty much everything I'm after. Still can't wait for the TIE Interceptor, anyone know when it's coming out?
