That's what I do as well. That way I can also chose the figure with better paint applications to open.  :)

I got in my Bandai Star Destroyer and it was gorgeous including the box it came in. All the way from Japan!

My NFL Vader Flags both showed up damaged. The printing was absolutely awful with stains. I hope my next set is better quality. I can't seem to get a good Funko AT-AT Driver either.

The new Black Series wave has finally started hitting RI. I stopped at a Walmart after work but was too late, however I didn't leave empty handed. I bought a FO Stormtrooper (my second one) and Vader. Not really liking the arms on Vader but at least I have one now. The paint apps on the Stormtrooper are pretty good, no complaints.

Good pick ups, I need to be on the look out for those.

Recent pickups this past week. I got The Black Series Biker Scout for $24.99 at a small local comic shop. I was surprised they didn't overcharge. That same night I was over a friends house for the Sox game, he found an Action Fleet X-wing. The laser cannons are broken and no figures but I have extras. It was nice of him to give it to me, I'll have it as custom fodder.

Lastly, today I finally found the new Black Series wave. I snagged the last Leia and Han (keeping one with original paint apps while I paint the hair on the first). No luck with Phasma yet though.

Wow, new Wally World Black Series. Looks good. Still not sure I am gonna bite on the Leia, but the Hoth Han for sure.

I got a Po Nudo figure online this week for a couple bucks! That is a figure that I've wanted for a while, but never quite seen at a low enough price, but I finally found one!  :)

Next I'm going to start looking for those Rebel Ground Crew with Yavin Transports. I need like 3 crew guys still, and would like to get them soon...

Looks good. Nice shape those vintage figures.

I got in the Steelers Empire Flag in great shape this time.

Almost forgot to post this. I picked up the Disney Store Titanium First Order TIE and Special Forces TIE from a fellow scummer at Rebelscum. Got them for $10 each.

  I got one of these Tervis Star Wars cups. They are double walled and vacuumed sealed, making it great for hot or cold drinks. This one is pretty cool, most of the images are from ANH except for Boba Fett. They make many different styles mostly TFA, now. They got some cool ones on Amazon like Yoda, BB-8, X-wing blueprints ect. I've bought Tervis glasses before, (Washington Capitals) they're great. I would not recommend putting them in the dishwasher.  They can crack causing leaks and eventually mold, not cool. I bought the 16oz, they also have 24oz.  All in all, I'll keep buying Tervis. It's a great product, made in America, lifetime guaranteed (eehhh, just hand wash them), with cool designs (pretty much anything).

Awesome purchases guys!!! I really like those Disney vehicles for some reason, though I've never seen them in person.

Does anyone know where I could find a few things (for an affordable amount)? I'm looking for several Yavin Rebel Technicians/Yavin Speeders and the newest Luke's Snowspeeder.

Finally found a 3.75" Black Series Phasma on Thursday before work. They had a fresh case so there were 2 each of the new Han, Leia and Phasma. I hate going into that Walmart near my job because of the area, but I go in for convenience sake as its the only one I can hit up at 8am. It paid off this time.
