Bought another Starkiller Base Han the other day. The figure I had where I repainted the hair had wonky eyes. This one had better paint apps so I'm just replacing it.

I kinda thought that when I saw you had fixed the hair. Glad to hear they aren't all like that.

I got two of the articulated TFA Stormtroopers from Walmart yesterday. I couldn't pass them up since we might now see SA versions of these figures ever again.  :-\

At a local comic shop I picked up the POTF Shadows of the Empire Boba Fett vs. IG-88 2-pack they were selling for $9.99. Shadows is my favorite story so I've been after the figures, which I'm almost finished with. Turns out when you go to the store and buy something that's listed on their ebay store, you get 20% off, so after tax the total was $8.50. There's a little dust, but its still brand new sealed in the package.

Very happy with my purchase.

I have one of those comic packs somewhere. I like the SOTE stuff too. I would love to get the purple box slave one sometime too.

That comic pack looks like it's in great condition, and that's a great price!

The purple packaging was always really cool to me as a kid. Not to mention Dash Rendar was always "me" when I played.  ;D :P

I loved Shadows and always thought the purple packaging was so cool. It's probably the only story I fully got into. I read the book/comic book and played the game, and a friend got me the soundtrack as well. I pretty much know Shadows like the back of my hand. Dash needs an update bad. I'm surprised we never got a Leebo figure.


During my lunch break at work I stopped in Walmart and bought Jakku Finn. They had TBS figures lowered to $14.97. He was the last to get for this line for TFA, and with him pegwarming as much as he is, I didn't feel like paying full price for him.

Nice pick ups. I haven't seen anything new on the pegs in awhile!

I bought an EFX ST helmet a little while ago, to wear to the upcoming SW CE3 in London. I don't have a full body armour set (yet...), but instead I'll put on a classy business suit. I know, it's been done before, but I think it's a great alternative to the real thing.

Just came in the mail today. Very happy to get Jedi Luke. Just need a Sandtrooper with orange pauldron and I'll be caught up.

Looks good, I just can't wait for the latest 6 in wave (TESB themed) to come out. Snowtroopers and AT-AT Drivers in multiples for me I hope!

Me too. Now that I got hooked on the 6" line, I'm really excited for the Snowtrooper and AT-AT Driver.


My TFA pickups tonight. Keep an eye out for the Takadona set, the Walmart I got it at had it on sale for $19. At that price I ended up biting. The only figure I don't need is Finn. Maz and BB-8 will go on my TFA shelf, and the other BB-8 figure will go back with the Falcon, along with Rey now.

Had to get R2/3PO set. I also got Chewie, I plan on making a custom super articulated Chewie this weekend, providing the other figure arrives.
