I finally found a 6" Mimban Stormtrooper. They must sell em as a full case as the pegs were full of em. They also had more vintage boxed big wing TIES, but I haven't bit on one of those yet. I still haven't seen any vintage figures there though. I am thinking someone must be beating me to them.

I recently spotted around 34 TVC figures on the pegs at Vandalia, IL Walmart,so I picked up another four Range Troopers. It was hard leaving the other 5 or 6 behind, let me tell ya!

That must feel nice to see all those vintage figures. I can't even seem to see one on the pegs at my local wal-mart.

Tamer: That's very cool, that you finally got the Mimban Trooper!



Yesterday, my last order from tunghori arrived. The deilvery to Germany took 15 days.



The Range Trooper and Enfys Nest are absolutely beautiful & high quality figures and I can really recommend them to you! Mysteriously I haven't found a stamp on the Range Trooper, yet. Nest has got one on the inner side of her right upper leg. Do you know if the Range Trooper has got one?

My latest find from the bay arrived today:






I paid 75€ for all this shipped. I keep Aayla Secura's Jedi Starfighter (15€), the Republic Fighter Tank (8€) and the 3 ROTS Clone Troopers (1,66€ each) - the rest is sold right away.
I'm looking forward to using the IFT-X and the Clone Troopers for custom projects...

Have a nice weekend everyone!

That Republic Tank is one of my favorite things they ever did. I remember playing the Clone Wars game for Gamecube thinking it was the coolest thing ever. It's a shame they made a second much smaller one, which drove the price of the larger one up of course! Very good scores though Darth More!!!

Tamer: Yes, that was before Hasbro scaled their Class II vehicles down...I was actually able to complete Aayla Secura's Jedi Starfighter with an original missle which I found in my parts box!


Jodo: Thank you for your reply, Jodo! The IFT-X is actually my favorite ground vehicle of the Star Wars Universe and the GAR! If you like it so much, too, you'll also like the custom versions I plan on doing. So far I collected 12 Republic Fighter Tanks in different versions - all used for 5-15€ each.
This year I got the CLONE WARS videogame for xbox, which I played on my xbox 360 - and I really enjoy the campaign although some missions are quite challenging. The end bosses remind me of the Super Mario and Zelda games. It's great that you mentioned this cool game and also are a fan of it!


The Spectre: Very nice finds! I went to GamesStop, yesterday and they had quite a few different Star Wars items. The only one of interest for me was the Battlefront 2 Inferno Squad Agent for 29,99€ - no discount, yet!
