One of my buds found the Cantina tin down in TX. So they are slowing hitting the WWs. Hopefully they will be out today. I would like to get them all.

I have not seen what these cantina tins look like?

I will have to google it today and find it.

I am afraid I might like it too much and buy them. doh!

They look just like the other tins that are out now. Only difference of course is instead of 4 different figures, it has all 5 band members.

I was surfing around starwarsshop.com and saw they reposted the Shadow Trooper.

Shadow Trooper

I picked it up earlier when it was available. Its a pretty cool figure.

Thanks for the info JKJ_D. Weird that they'd show up again after so long. Wonder if these are from cancelled/returned orders?

Anyone out there get any SW swag over the holidays? Personally I only got a few things, but I'm not complaining. I got the Darth Spud and GH Vader key chains but the best was the Sideshow Collectibles 12" Qui-Gon I got from Mrs. Wormie. I did get some cash that I may end up using on a Sideshow or Gentle Giant item.

I got the Millennium Falcon Transformer from my friend for Christmas.

I picked up some sweet vintage Star Wars weapons at a low cost and some vintage figures off ebay.

Not much happening hunt wise. Looks like Targets are doing reorgs. Went to Millbury on Sat total mess in toy land. Framingham was the same yesterday. Westboro and Milford weren't bad but I think their reorgs are coming soon. so be on the look out people with the reorgs happening the new stuff should be right around the corner. I for one am up in the air about buying more stuff. I may just go with GG busts and bust-ups they don't come out as often so that will help lighten the burden on the ol' wallet. lol

I was searching around and saw this link for Kotobukiya Vinyl Figures. Pretty good deal.

I received my George Lucas stormtrooper yesterday happy

Not bad just deciding if I want to open it or not?

I think I am going to pick up the comic book packs of figures but may wait to see if they go on clearance.

Saw all of the newest clones tonight at the Target in Milford. They had 2 of each, except for the holo cody which they had 3 of.

Here is an article about the new ORDER 66 collection exclusive to Target.

Order 66 2-Packs

I sense alot of Mace, Obi-Wan, and Anakins up for trades or for sale.

I wish we could get only the clones if wanted on these exclusives.

I received a hefty pay-out of my accrued vacation time this week and used a small piece of it to buy myself the GG Chewie bust. I came very close to getting the GG Animated Luke Statue, but settled on the Chewie bust instead. Can't wait to get it home. grin

The Chewy bust is a good one my friend. I have it and love it. Good buy.

The Wal-mart 5 made an appearance on Friday. I was able to find them at Westboro and Hudson.

Figures, not that I'm looking for any of the 5, but I hit that WW twice last week and there wasn't bupkiss on the pegs.

I stopped by the Walmart in North Attleboro, they had 4 out of the 5 figures. I picked up Mace Windu's Astromech droid put passed on all the rest. No luck at Target finding Commander Appo or the Elite Scout Trooper.
