Yeah, it's those bar codes on the back of the card that you have to cut out and send in for the free figure.

You will need to open one to get the booklet for the mail-in, then you can cut the bar codes out and leave the other three carded if you want. I just got my series 2 mail-in figure today and can say definately that it is the exact same figure as the series one mail-in, a red elite serpent guard. I now have two. I'm leaving my new one in the box to sell later and will now open my other one. Thanks, DST!

Yes 2 actors from farscape are in stargate Ben Browder (Lt. Colonel Cameron Mitchell) & Claudia Black (Vala Mal Doran). Also when I looked at my slip from the series 2 figures for the post away figure it says it expires Dec 2006 is that wrong?

I think it must be wrong, gedscraw, because SlayerLover just got one of the mail-in figures a couple days ago. I hope it's not expired, because I need to stop being lazy and send in my series 1 stuff.

I got my replacement piece of the Stargate this week. Although it fits together a little easier, it does not match completely. It is a little darker shade of grey and the symbols are not shaded exactly as the others, but it still looks great as long as you don't look too hard. About the expiration date. I think these were supposed to come out in September, so they probably weren't able to reprint just for the date. Anyway, I sent mine off and got my free figure in 2 weeks time, so apparently the expiration date does not matter. They will send them out as long as their supply lasts.

My Farscape, er, Stargate figs just shipped! I really aught to watch the show now. I noticed that the regular Vala, rather than the limited Vala in fetish clothes, is showing as out of stock in some places already.

I just got my notice for series 3, due this Thursday. Hopefully by Friday night, when I watch SG-1, I will have the full gang. I think that it is great that these are coming out just in time for the series finale. I wish they could have done Buffy this way. When Buffy was ending, I could hardly find anything to celebrate the end. I can't wait to see what the DHD and the accessories look like. I haven't been able to find any pics or reviews online yet, I hope they are up soon. I passed on the black ops Daniel, since I will be getting the 2-pack with Anubis. I also want Replicator Carter or Replicarter and Avalon Vala or Avala. I wonder what happened to the Desert Combat figures? I remember seeing Jack, Daniel, and Teal'c last year and Carter is on the back of the series 2 card. Are they still releasing them?

It's a shame they can't use that set for a diaroma of "The Gift". That metal walkway looks perfect.
And there's a whole lot of male soldier bodies there that should be screaming to DST "Riley ME!"

Yeah, my black ops Jack O'Neil has been "pretending" to be black ops Riley for awhile now. Does anyone know what the thing next to the DHD is? Is it one of Merlin's weapons?

Hm, the production figure of Ben Browder appears to be borrowing the eyebrows or expression from the Bridges brother. But I'll wait till I see it in person.

I love these figures, i only picked up Avalon Vala (going to see if i can do something to change her into Aeryn from Farscape) and Mitchell, but they are really cute! The thing next to the DHD is from Avalon part 2/Origin.

Mine just arrived and I like Vala in fatigues the most. Cameron Mitchell's eyebrows and forehead are all messed up -- eyebrows are in a "huh?" expression and the forehead is wrinkled -- which is kind of disappointing, but, they'll each still make great honorary crewmembers of the Battlestar Galactica if the Galactica figures turn out to be the exact same scale.

I just got Cameron, Vala, and the Prior. I'm so glad to have them all. I have a few issues with Cammy right off the bat. I think the head has a good likeness and the expression doesn't bother me at all, but mine has some paint issues. There's some brown on his forehead, a spot under his eyebrow, a dot on the tip of his nose, and another dot on the other side of his forehead, right in one of his wrinkles. I think the likeness is good though.His body is exactly the same as Jack and Daniel's and it seems to have Xander Syndrom. Most of his joints were stuck and I broke his right hand off as soon as I tried to move it. I superglued it and I'll learn to live with it. The right bicep was frozen with a hugh gap. I did it Flobbo style and fixed it just like I did Xander's and all the joints work fine now. Vala is the same as Sam from the waist down and the arms but the torso piece is all new. I wish she came with the black vest though, I think she needs one. I'm not too sure about the likeness and I noticed they removed the stipe in her hair on the cardback. The Prior is the best figure of the three. Great likeness, great paintjob, and great accessories. The top piece is soft rubber and is removable. All the joints are smooth as silk. I love the DHD and the origins thing. Vala comes with two little blue crystals that fit into it. I wonder where that big red thing fits? All in all, I am really pleased with these figures and hope that they continue to produce more characters. I think I'm already starting to regret not getting the Black Op teal'c or Daniel. I want that glass skull that I didn't know he came with until I say the booklet. There is no mail-in thing this time, but I'm going to cut out the bar codes and send them in with the series 2 mail-in and see what happens.

Exactly how many and which figures do you need in order to make the DHD? Three figures = 1 Vala (either one?) + 1 Ori Prior + 1 Mitchell? Or do you need both Valas? Does Black Ops Daniel have a piece of the DHD? I can't seem to find info on this anywhere - thanks to anyone who can answer!

No, they do not have peg holes. You only need 2 figures to make the DHD. Prior comes with the top of the dial and Cameron comes with the bottom. Vala has the mind swap thing. Black Ops Daniel comes with a piece of the Stargate and a glass skull that I want. I also just ordered Avalon Vala, Replicator Carter, and Daniel/Anubis 2 pack, due in May. DST also just announced a 4th wave of SG-1 figures dues by the end of the year featuring the gang in their desert combat outfits and it states that we will be getting 1 new character by the end of the year.

SlayerLover - Thank you! I was hoping I didn't have to buy every single variant to complete the Stargate and DHD. Although getting a few variants wouldn't exactly hurt....(except maybe my bank account!)
