    Pre ordered the Han Solo The Force Awakens Black series a few weeks ago, but it have not been shipped yet, I guess Hasbro's distribution for this wave is terrible.
    I've also bought the Saga Legends Han Solo Endor and Bespin Han Solo, and I'm quite surprised with the figures. Yep, they're only 5 POA but there1s something charming about then... maybe I'll pick a few more figures from Saga Legends.
    Also ordered The Force Awakens Novel and the Star Wars comics trades v. 1 and 2.

    Since I was surprised by the Saga Legends Han, I've decided to order a few more.
    I got the Han and Princess Leia Mission pack, the Hera and Stormtrooper Commander pack, Kanan and Cadet Ezra Pack, the Inquisitor and also Agent Kallus.
    They're also a cheap way to make the collection a little bigger, I'm thinking about ordering the Asohka Tano and Darth Vader pack, and the Zeb and Chopper pack.

    Well, a pretty good day for me. My local newsagents had the second issue of the DeAgostini Star Wars Helmet Collection, which is Boba Fett. Mine now! You can see a pic here on their website. I didn't want to subscribe to this but I did want the Fett.
    And a supermarket in town had SW Cheese Strings on sale. Normally I wouldn't go near these but the one with Fett's picture on it sold me.

    The DeAgostini helmet collection is being released here in Brazil as well. They're nice, but they're too expensive (About 49R$ each, that's something like 12U$, with the dollar strong as it is now, tough time) over here, so I stay clear from that collection and save my money for other collectibles.
    What we also have here is a nice set o Star Wars Band-Aids :p
    I got them just for fun, but didn't use then yet.
    Also, just ordered the Darth Vader and Ahsoka Tano pack, found one really cheap, couldn't pass.

    The Helmet Collection goes for £4.99 each at retail in the UK. Also, for US folks, it is available there - unlike DeAg offerings like Fact Files. If you want to subscribe in the US the Customer Service number is 1-877-544-6779.

    Delivery person brought an Amazon UK order containing (among some books) the Disney Infinity 3.0 Boba Fett. Don't have the game - just like the look of the figure.

    Picked up a vintage Power Droid at a local vintage toy store today. Only $12, with great paint and sticker. That takes me up to 55 vintage figures.

    Went grocery shopping this morning and the supermarket still had a few of the Captain Phasma Travel Mugs so I picked one up. I've tried to find a pic of the exact one online but failed so far. Mug is silver and black with a head-to-knee image of Phasma.

    Walked up to the local garden center for wild bird food this morning. The place has a small book section - mostly kids' books and gardening/wildlife subjects. To my surprise they had a SW stand up in the kids section with a bunch of books on sale. So I got Rey's Survival Guide and Star Wars in 100 Scenes for a few pounds off on each.

    I picked up a Walgreens Zapped 6" Darth Vader yesterday. Other than impulse purchase I don't know why, he looks weird :p

    I haven't really picked anything up recently. Last thing I bought was the Kylo Unmasked Funko pop from wal-mart. I did see some new 3.75" figures. Tasu Leech and Fifth brother. I also saw two 6" flame troopers, but I passed on them. Something looks really off about that figure. I'll stick to my elite series Flametrooper.

    Yeah, I'm pretty burnt out personally. ESPECIALLY since I can never find anything near me. My Walgreens is years behind in exclusives, and my wal-mart never puts new product out until ALL the current stock on the shelf is depleted. It's very frustrating.
