Chic, IL SW collecting new & old

Hey folks how are you doing. I am coming out there in May so maybe we can meet up..

Hey Sithy how is the collecting going..

 

Mark, I've spotted Denegar a couple of times at Walmart on Meacham and the Walmart in GlenEllyn but not in the past few weeks.

 

Hey Mike, if you come down here, you must make a donation to everyone's collection. Or just give it all to me and I'll divide it up myself.

 

Hi Mark, I am coming down on May 15th dude...

 

Don't know if these are part of the newest wave, but this is the first time I've seen them. High Council Yoda and Destroyer Droids spotted at the Walmart on Meacham in Elk Grove Village. Also, Tie Bomber! It's really high on the shelf, so remember to look up.

 

Crazy Mike...
....how long will you be here in the Chicago area?

Don't forget...if you find yourself at the south end of the "pond"...you are certainly welcome to come by my place too....I may even cook.....
nah....I'll order out!

 

Hey Mike, where exactly are you coming into Chicago? The actual city? The 'burbs? If so, which 'burbs? I'd love ta meet you!

 

Hi Phyllis and Sithy. Lynora and I are coming in on Thursday May 15th and will
be around until the Sunday. I hope that I get to meet you and the rest of the gang Lynora and I will be staying with JediJeff that weekend, right Jeff

edit spelling

 

......calendar marked....
really hope to meet ya!


...there is also a futon in my "Star Wars" room.....

 

Like hell you're staying with me.

 

Well I guess I will have to give that silver Vader to someone else then

 

I have an extra room...............

 

Nice collection dude. I need more 12" figures...

 

I already got a silver Vader...but can always use two

 

*cough cough*...don't have one....*cough cough*

 

What do you mean you do not have one Jodo..

 

Has anyone seen any of the 2003s around here yet? (Padmé Conveyor Belt, Obi-Wan Acklay, etc.)


I haven't, but then again, I haven't been out on a trench run (figure hunting to multiple stores in one day) in 2 weeks, so I wanted to know if anyone had begun to see them.

 

They are appearing In Toronto so they should be out down there Sithy

 

Yah, I just saw one person in the collecting forum (New Aquis thread) say they got all the Jan.10 releases today, so I was just wondering if they were appearing around here.

 

I haven't seen them as yet...I will probably be talking to my source next week to see what he has gotten in...
I am still looking for the #2 Leia and Chewbacca Trash Compactor Scene...

 

Geez...I don't see anything cool. No Silver Vader (Yes I know that's not in stores) No Compactor Sets, no Holiday Sets. Oh well.

I'll stop whining and let you guys know that the Super K-Mart in Elk Grove Village is closing. Toys are currently 20% off. No good Hasbro stuff. But still some cool Lego sets.

 

The 2 new col I & II waves have been appearing up here in Toronto...

 

Count Dooku speeder spotted at Target in Lombard last night.
Sorry, no Anakins' I picked up the last one.

 

Got all 16 of the new 3 3/4" figures......the classic Boba Fett is really awesome....love Bariss and Aayla too....they are stand-outs...
....one of my favorites is Lama Su and the Clone boy....the rest are kinda ho-hum....
just a re-hash...
the Anakin Secret Ceremony also looks pretty good...got the mechanical arm thing going...

next it is on to the new vehicles and Action Fleets....

 

Ahhhh! Schph! Where did you get them?? [face_shocked]

I just spend 3 HOURS today looking for them at a total of 5 stores!

If anyone knows where to buy them... Lemme know.
