    Continuing the popular new acquisitions thread..

    If you post images to your new buys please post them as links so this thread doesn't get
    image-heavy. Thanks!

    I just got a 25th Anniversary Silver Vader. The package is in pristine condition.


    I've been playing catch-up since I got back into collecting.

    Hasbro sent me the two missing rockets for the Boba Fett that came with my two OTC Slave I ships. They're fast when it comes to customer service!

    I also preordered the Unleashed Darth Vader, Palpatine Vs. Yoda, and Asajj Ventress wave from Amazon.com.

    Well, there was a seond thread started for new acquisitions due to a mix-up so I am reposting the two posts from that here.

    Well we are in the middle of a collecting frenzy at the moment with the imminent release of the Revenge of the Sith. The stores are filled with goodies and our wallets are emptying faster than a speeding X-Wing. Here is the continuing thread for you all to share with the rest of us your latest finds.

    I'll start:

    Count Dooku #13
    Bail Organa #15


    And JEDI-MASTER28 wrote:
    Here is what I recenlty bought:

    1. ARC-170

    2. Anakin Skywalker-Clone Wars

    3. General Grievous-Clone Wars

    4. General Grievous Sneak Preview

    5. General Grievous Unleashed

    6. Red Royal Guard

    7. Blue Royal Guard

    8. AT-TE Tank gunner #38

    And I may end up buying the whole set of the Clone Wars characters from Alliance Collectibles shortly, so I'll update my list when/IF I do.

    Yesterday I got my midnight ticket to see Episode III. Today I picked up the Revenge of the Sith book made by Scholastic. I know they are for the younger kids, but I have the Episode I and II version, and for only $3.94 I couldn't say no to it.

    Also today I picked up my first Galatic Heroes set, and it most likely will be the only one I pick up. I got the Anakin and Count Dooku set. I buy everything that has Anakin on it, as he is my favorite character, so I had to get it.

    In the past couple days I've gotten Anakin's Jedi Starfighter and the theatrical poster. Still hunting for the Clone Commander and Red Guard.

    everybody has those problems you arent the only one out there.maybe you can get a job mowing grass, thats how most young people who arent old enough to work do for some cash.besides you dont have to buy products to be a hug fan of starwars anyways.just enjoy the movies thats what is important.


    P.S. and having 2 figures isnt bad at all, most kids dont have any of these toys because they are poor, so you should feel lucky instead of sad.remember there are people worst off than you,so 2 figures is good.

    I got the exclusive Sidious Lightsabe replica at Best Buy yesterday. It was the last one there, too. It looks great displayed. I also got that 2006 Star Wars movie poster calendar, which I think is fantastic.

    Nothing since April 2nd. Saving money for C 3 next weekend.

    Oh, bought the EP III hardback, and got it signed by Matthew Stover a few days ago.

    Well when I went to Barnes and Noble, they had along with the regular ROTS Calendar a 2006 showing off all the movie posters for the 6 Star Wars films.

    Not sure if it counts, but I just picked up a bottle of Mountain Dew featuring General Grievous on the label.
