Just looking for Gree now and I can close the book on the latest waves of CW figures so far! Also got 2 redemption forms for the mail away Qui-Gon Jinn and Eopie figures. Time to start cutting out those 5 UPC codes!

FedEx left a package with one of the neighbors this morning:

SW Coruscant Throw

Pic isn't that great since I had to lay it out on the bed to display and then taking the shot was hard because of furniture in the way.

Latest Acquisitions:

Clone Wars:
CW06 Mace Windu (2nd One)
CW09 Commander Gree
CW10 ARF Trooper (2nd One)

BattlePacks
Ambush in the Vulture's Claw

So I FINALLY found Gree, and at a Kohl's of all places! I was about to abandon my search for him yesterday and there he was! Now Kohl's marks up their figures to ridiculous prices, but they also had a buy one get the 2nd one for 50% off deal going on, so even with their jacked up prices it still worked out to normal retail for 2 figures, so I picked up a 2nd ARF Trooper with him. Found a 2nd Mace to open at Walmart, but I also saw him at Target and Kohls.

TRU had the Assualt on the Vulture's Claw BP and I had to get this one since its the only way to pick up Gha Nachkt, though I do like the poncho'd Anakin and Ahsoka, plus you can never have enough IG-86 droids, especially if you are going to try and recreate Cad Bane's motley crew! I also saw the Geonosis Assault BP at TRU, but for only two pilots (granted they are the Evolutions versions) and ONE, only ONE gunner pod, it doesn't really justify the price! You think that they would at least give you two pods in that pack since you will want your gunship to look accurate right!

Anyway, I'm finished for the CW waves out there, now I can sit back and wait for the next wave to hit the stores.

Happy Hunting fellow collectors!

I picked up the new The Clone Wars Ultimate Battles visual guide. Has pics from season 2 and info in it too. So cool. And Thursday I will be picking up either new Yoda from TCW or a Commando droid.

I hadn't bought any new 'Star Wars' figures in ages but I found the 'Empire strikes back' themed wave of the "Legacy collection" today and I couldn't resist. I picked up...

- Hoth Rebel soldier [bearded variation].

- Ugnaught

- Luke

&

- Leia [Medical frigate]

Both the Rebel soldier and Ugnaught are great. Luke and Leia aren't necessarily the best, especially Luke [Mostly it's the head sculpt I didn't like].

Latest Acquisitions:

Clone Wars:
CW20 Clone Trooper Denal (2nd one)

I also saw the results for the fans choice figure poll from Rebelscum, some good picks, some okay picks and some "What the Hell were they thinking" picks! Jocasta Nu?! Really?! REALLY?! And she was #17 to boot! If this figure gets made over some of the other choices then I think everyone that voted for her needs to be pelted to death by all of the stupid Yarna d'al' Gargan figures that are still peg warming toy isles around the globe!

Lol, my brother got me Yarna d'al Gargan for my B-Day, which Dec. 31. No SW figures were on the shelves after xmas, so he just got me Yarna since I needed her.

Heh, so you got her by default because there was nothing else left to get, yeah I can see Jocasta Nu being a similar figure. Peg warming just like Ket Wol, the Organa's, Mon Mothma and Ak Rev. I swear, the only reason I would buy her was so my 501st Clones had something to shoot at, target practice boys! She was snooty to Obi-Wan in AOTC and not to mention WRONG! Kamino did exist you old wrinkled up bag, back to your holocrons ya dried up spinster! Can you feel the love for her?! grin

Anyway, figure hunting has slowed down, still looking for another Gree to open, but other then that I'm good until new CW figures come out.

Picked up the new Robot Chicken SW Episode II DVD in town today (haven't watched it yet). And I was in Debenhams (UK department store) and they had a toy section in the Men's clothes area with a whole pile of SW figures. Fairly new ones too. Normally they only do toys around Christmastime. So if you're in the UK and you have a Debenhams near you it might be worth checking them out.

Also had a knock on the door earlier from a nice DHL man. Only trouble was he was looking for my upstairs neighbor, not me. Neighbor has his package now. (It looked like books or DVDs from the outside).

Latest Acquisitions:

Clone Wars:
Commander Ponds (TRU Exclusive) 2nd one

So I picked up a 2nd Commander Ponds to open since nothing new has struck my fancy. Waiting for the Target exclusive X-Wing with Wedge and the Walmart exclusive AT-ST along with new CW figures.
