Maygbe, though shipping is likely to be a fortune and of course there's the blooduscking scum of Customs & Excise ready and waiting to bend you over for daring to try and buy something that's not at a ripoff price.

Yeah, I've noticed it seems to cost a fortune to send stuff to you. I can send twice the weight to our friend Tim in Iraq for half the price in comparison to shipping to London. Gotta be Margaret Thatcher's fault somehow, that saucy wench. laugh

Whaddya mean Margaret Thatcher isn't PM anymore? I'm American... I don't keep up with this stuff!

LOL Better be careful. If you don't watch out you'll be two Prime Ministers behind. Word is his own party is trying to oust him.

Nope. I haven't seen much of anything as far as toys lately.

OK... which one of you cleaned out the Wolfchase Target of all the "Mace Windu's Attack Battalion" battlepacks?

Great, now I've got to drive all over the metro area to find one. sad

Wasn't me, Chris. I haven't bought a SW toy in months now. Well, if you don't count the two Kotobukiya Luke Skywalkers I bought for Traci for her birthday. (I ordered one in May and forgot about it until it showed up in October. By then I had bought one on ebay for her. Now I have one gift wrapped in the closet.)

Check out the Raleigh or American Way Wal-Mart. I bet you'll find it there.

Don't be giving away my secret spots! happy I particularly like the Wal-Mart at Holmes and Presley Blvd. Not many SW buyers in that area. They used to have unreal clearance prices. Haven't checked in a while.

Prob is, this particular battlepack is a Target exclusive. I've weened myself away from SW toys over the past few months, but a pack with 4 purple clones is just too hard to resist.

Glad I haven't gotten into the Koto's or any other busts/statues, I barely have enough space or $$$ for my lightsaber habit. Although, the new animated maquettes have caught my attention.

I've tried to amend my collection habits to statues and busts. We have so blasted many action figures that we can't display because we don't have room, I figured I might as well save the money for things that I don't mind displaying- like the 24" Sideshow Vader (which is freaking sweeeeeeeet, and is sitting in my living room.) And those Gentle Giant mini-busts just rock.

So, does anyone have a MR Y-wing here? I can feel it calling my name and demanding I spend £500+ on it.... worried

I can't justify spending that kind of money on anything that isn't furniture...

Vader is furniture. Well, he is to us. That's one expensive item I definitely haven't regretted buying.

I sit on a Darth Vader statue. Two Darth Vaders would be a sin.
