    Luckyily...though I haven't really looked for them..I do have info on this very subject...I found R2 and Chewie at Electronic Boutique in Oshawa...unfortunatly they did not last long...I wnet back to get R@ but he was gone...i must say these figures are much bettter then the last ones with much sharper detail...but would like to see them in a macFarlen style figure...you know hand sculpted and painted kinda things...they may be more expesnsive but I am sure there will be many collectors interested.

    Hey Chris,

    I think that you mentioned on another thread that you make lightsabers. Do you make the cases too...

    Nope, just hilts, and I don'tdo replicas, just custom stuff, looks like it would actually be used, instead of a museum piece.

    Another hobby in a sea of them.

    Back to the topic in the subject heading, it's been an expensove couple of days,

    THE NEWER WAVE HAS HIT CANADA!!!

    I have now seen: Mechanic Chewbacca, Sassee Tinn, Aurra, Plo Koon, and many others from the second? wave of figures. Not in great numbers mind you, and the place I saw them on Friday was basaically empty monday, but then I went to the Walmart on upper James and found more, and different stuff.
    There is hope!

    For those still looking for newer figs,

    The TRU and Wal-Marts have started getting in the latest wave of figs that include Aurra Sing, Chewie Mechanic and Invasion Amidala.

    Collect 'em all!

    If someone could pick me up an Aurra Sing, I'd appreciate it. Highest price I'd pay is 12.99-13.99, hopefully cheaper though.

    Let me know before you buy it or state you will pick it up, so noone else goes out and buys me one, thus inundating me with figures I can't afford.

    Thanks!

    I will keep my eyes open for her young man,
    although I have not had too much luck finding figures. I guess I have to get out more and search the stores. It is just that work has been so busy...

    Oooops, thought it was Crazy mike who wanted the Aurra Sing, but it was Adam.

    Well, regardless, I've picked up a sing at Walmart today, as there wasn't anything I wanted.

    Now Adam, how do I get her to you?

    Actually I was looking for a Sing as well as I have been banned from buying any US figures
    by the "Boss" ( She is looking at me tapping
    her foot)

    "aside" "We will see how long that lasts..."

    If Crazy Mike asked for the Sing first, he's more than welcome to get the one from you, Bertramtalespinner.

    I don't have a problem with that.

    Hi Adam, It is no problem. I originally posted that I would keep my eyes opened for
    a Sing for you. I did not mentionn that I did
    not have Sing either. By the ways, when is
    your next reading day.

    Hey Chris, do you feel like coming by my place in the near future as I am only a few
    minutes away from you. I will be home all
    weekend if you feel like stopping by...

    Hey Mike,

    My last exam is on Thrusday and I'm moving back home on Friday morning. I've taken back most of my stuff so the move isn't going to be much of a pain.

    Until I find a job, I have no real ties to anything important.

    Hi Adam,

    David sent me a message saying that you guys
    might be able to make it over this weekend.
    How does Friday night sound ?

    That wouldn't be a problem for me. I'll likely be back at home and unpacked by 12:00-12:30. Anytime after that would be good for me.

    Hi Adam,

    That sounds great. I will be home by 4:30pm
    Friday afternoon. I spoke to David this
    morning and he was going to see if you
    were going to be in town by Friday evening.
    You may want to let him know that everything
    looks good. Hopefully Chris will read this message and will be able to join us on Friday too. He lives only minutes away from me.

    Mike

    I'll have to see when I'm going to be working on Friday, but I can say I'll be done by 5 or 6 and can pick up Adam on the way out to your place.

    Sounds good David,

    I have sent a message to Chris aka
    bertramtalespinner to see if he can make it too. It would be a good opportunity to meet
    him.

    Sorry folks, much as I might like to, I'm working Friday evening. If you feel like burning the midnight oil, I might be able to swing by so you can get mug shots.

    Or give me presents, I hit the 30 mark Sunday. Ack!

    Actually, I was in the Walmart on Upper James today and they were loaded with Mechanic Chewie, Hoth Leia, Boomer BD, Han, AND a number of Aurra Sings, plus at least one Naboo Amadala.

    No others though, and the Toys B We on Upper Wentworth was similar. I WANT a darn Republic guard. Oh, and I saw a 4-Lom at the Oakville Toys B We, but that was a number of days ago so...

    Found another place in hamilton with loose old figures however on King right downtown. Gonna have to go back and get me a Tauntaun.
