/\ Very

The store Tuesday Morning is having a 92% off Clearance sale until Sunday. They sometimes have SW toys.

Just an FYI

 

We ahve one in Tucson (alvernon and grant). Never seen what it has.

 

oh Okay... nice enough.. but I was expecting a figure of Luke holding his lightsaber... not just his lightsaber.. silly woman I am...

 

Tons of stuff from every type of genre of every need of every dept of life, liberty and home. I love Tuesday Morning.. great place for Christmas Shopping!!!

 

not really a sale or a good find, but does anyone know about the "new" figure set that came out with 60 figures each w/ a collectible coin, and the Vader figure comes with the coin case? Don't know if it's worth getting them.

 

I heard about coins or something like that coming at C4.

 

Target on Oracle has the vader with the coin and coin holder. $9.99 if I remember.

 

dont remember if I posted this or not, but the new clone and rebel blasters are out at wal-mart, the rebel blaster is the perfect size. the clone is a bit small though

 

Read an e-mail today from a friend who said that Lown's Costumes is closing and prices were going to drop after Easter. Anybody else know anything about this?

 

No but it's worth checking out..... parts if anything else. Most of the major costume places in Tucson are closing, must not be a good business anymore, at least here.

 

New Hyperspace prices....

As previously report Lowns is going out of busines, probably has something to do witt heir insane prices, and their lack of compassion and lackluster costumes (black spray painted football pads on their rent-a-vader anyone?)

But their stuff is 50% off, Im going to hit upt he make-up for the shaak ti project
