Here is my little list of top priority wants. Tactical Ops Trooper #65 Shock Trooper a.k.a. Clone Trooper #6 (Red Painted) Jedi Temple Assault (K-Mart exclusive) What are yours? Let us know. -----signature----- Foxboro Imperial Syndicate http://boards.theforce.net/Foxboro,_MA/b10654/ http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=47650368

	I have been doing really well with this series of figs. I have them all so far except for 1. I scored some good finds yesterday when I picked up a Tan face AT-RT, Spudtrooper, and the 2nd version of the Clone Evolution figs. I was also able to score a couple Covert Ops figs from SW.com. They keep on going on and off the site. My wants are just one right now. A Utapau Shadow Trooper. They have eluded me all weekend. lol I actually thought I had one this afternoon but I spoke too soon. The guy check the system for me and they were showing up and supposedly when he went back there they were gone. I was watching the guy and I saw him come out of the back with something in his hands and was stopped by another employee and the next thing I knew they went to the back and the guy no longer had anything in his hands when he came walking back. Here is the number to use when asking for this figure 087-06-0516. O btw I have an extra 501st and Shocktrooper. -----signature----- R.I.P.

	I've cut way back on my figure collecting. There's only a few more that I really want to get. The 501st Trooper, Separation of the Twins, and the VOTC wave 2 figures. Other than that, I've moved on to the higher end stuff. In the past couple of weeks I've received my GG Yoda bust, Code 3 Revenge of the Jedi Mini Poster and my Borders Exclusive MR Luke ROTJ saber. I was up at Target (Milford) this morning and they had figures up to #64 or #65 along with the new ROTS Galactic Heroes figures and a ton of the Attack on Coruscant Battle Packs. The GH Anakin figure is pretty cute. They gave him "Sith Eyes" -----signature----- "What's so wrong about wanting power converters?" "...and so shines a good deed in a weary world."—W.

	I like those Code 3 mini posters and big posters. They are really cool. I got the one from C3 and I have all of them so far. I like TESB and ROTS from best buy the best. ANH is a good one as well. I am not the biggest fan of the Return of the Jedi normal one. I don't remember that being the poster for the movie back then. -----signature----- R.I.P.

	Jorge I will keep an eye out for Utapau Shadow Trooper if I see them I will pounce. Mike if I see any of yours I will pick them up, I can always return them to the store if you already have them. Any one seen or picked up any of the new promotional stuff at Burger King yet? I heard there was new meal toys. Not really interested in the watches myself. I have got enought watches. If someone is collecting them let me know I will try and pick up a few of those too. -----signature----- Foxboro Imperial Syndicate http://boards.theforce.net/Foxboro,_MA/b10654/ http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=47650368

	I have the 1st wave of BK toys. I got them yesterday. I was going to get a watch but decided not to I will probably get a Han and Leia. I do want the Have It Your Way cards. They are 6 of them for all the movies. Han is for TESB Slave Leia for ROTJ Maul for TPM I can't remember the rest. -----signature----- R.I.P.

	Thanks Chris. I haven't picked up any of the BK stuff yet, but I plan on hitting there at Lunch today. I think this time around I'm going to pass on the toys. There is a wave 2 of them, but I think there is only 12-15 this time around and some of them are the same figure that the have made minor changes to. I'm going for a couple of the watches myself. I want the Luke/Stormie and the Ani/Vader one. Hopefully I can pick them bothup today, eliminating any future BK visits. So they have cards too? Hmm, didn't hear anything about those. I'll have to check them out. -----signature----- "What's so wrong about wanting power converters?" "...and so shines a good deed in a weary world."—W.

	From the one window cling I saw there were Have it your way cards that I guess are gift certificates. There are 6 of them and they are the litograph kind. Everything seems to be lithograph lately I wonder why. -----signature----- R.I.P. Carl "Big Bad" Buehler you will be missed http://www.sandtroopers.com http://www.inboxdollars.com/?r=ref313343

	I picked up the ANH watch yesterday at BK. I was a bit disappointed that there are only 2 watches available at a time though. The only other watch I want is the ROTS one. I guess I'll have to check back later in the week. I did see those Have it Your Way cards. I didn't realize they were going to be gift cards though. I thought they were going to be oversized trading cards. Last night I went hunting after work and finally found the Clone 3-pack in DVD packaging at the Hudson WalMart. They also had about 10 Cmndr Bly's for those who need him as well as 3 of the Early Bird packages. I though about picking one up, but they're still charging $29.99 for them, so I passed. -----signature----- "What's so wrong about wanting power converters?"

	I went to Burger King for breakfast this morning and picked up the AHN and the TPM watches. I think I only got them for the tins they come in. I will probably keep a couple of the watches, but if anyone wants the watches let me know I can get some extra ones perhaps. I will try and get some extra of the ROTS watch if you want Mike. I also got picked up the Chewbacca Kid's Meal toy. It is a spinner or top and it works pretty good. At the Milford Burger King I with the summer toys I was able to buy as many as I wanted with a meal purchase. And I think the same thing goes with this promotion. -----signature----- Foxboro Imperial Syndicate http://boards.theforce.net/Foxboro,_MA/b10654/ http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=47650368

	Hey I just splurged and picked up the Episode III Revenge of the Sith 3D Sculpted Movie Poster from Best Buy. I wasn't able to get The Darth Vader ESB one at Celebration III, which I really wanted. So this will be my first of these kind of collectibles. It is limited to 5,000 pieces and it costs $80.00 . More than I usually spend on a collectible. You can see pictures of it at Code 3 Episode III Revenge of the Sith 3D Sculpted Movie Poster -----signature----- Foxboro Imperial Syndicate http://boards.theforce.net/Foxboro,_MA/b10654/ http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=47650368

	I really like this one. It is one of my favs next to TESB. I really like this series of collectible and I can't wait for TPM and AOTC to come out down the road. I hope it is a few months away because I want to get the credit cards down. lol -----signature----- R.I.P.

	That's a nice looking poster Chris, congrats on the purchase! I would have loved to get that one but the cost, along with the utter lack of wallspace I have in my office kind of put the kybosh on that. I got my mini Revenge of the Jedi one a couple of weeks ago and it looks great next to my mini ESB one. I'm hoping they do this with with the other 4 movies as well. A mini TPM poster with young Ani casting the Vader shadow would be awsome! As for the BK toys, I know the one on Rt 20 in Marlboro will let you buy as many as you like with the purchase of a value meal. I think they charge $1.29 for 2. -----signature----- "What's so wrong about wanting power converters?" "...and so shines a good deed in a weary world."—W.

	I am not sure how the big posters will hang on a wall. They are heavy as hell for a poster. You would definitely have to put them on a stud and not just put them anywhere along the wall. These ones are definitely better displayed like a picture frame I think. Where is the BK on 20 in Marlboro? I work in Marlboro in the same plaza as Panera, Long Horn, etc we are the car place at after the light there going towards Worcester. When I go to Bk I usually go to the one in Hudson before work. -----signature----- R.I.P.

	Yeah I know where that is. Once and a while I'll stop into the Boston Market there next to the Starbucks and bring home dinner. To get to the BK on Rt 20, you need to head east through Marlboro center and keep following 20 for a mile or two. It would be on your left-hand side, across from the old Marlboro cinema. It sounds like the Hudson one is probably easier for you to get to though, since all you need to do is jump on 495 for a minute or two. -----signature----- "What's so wrong about wanting power converters?"
