"You are a collector, are you not?" The new acquisitions thread.

Went by Target during lunch, and picked up the Grievous and Palpatine deluxe figures, as well as a red Senate Guard I still have yet to see any figures #d 33+ around here though...

 

Picked up Clone Commander #33 and General Grievous #36 yesterday morning. Last night I found Clone Pilot #34 and Palpatine #35.

 

Picked up Saesee Tin, Luminara Unduli & Aayla Secura.

 

ROTS:
Padme
Bail

C3PO

ROTS Novel

Making of ROTS

Lego Wookiee Attack

Boba Fett/Cloud City Micro Machine thing from ebay

 

It seems that the books: Making of ROTS and the ROTS novel are the most popular ones.

 

i just had a good trip to wal-mart! i picked up:

clone pilot x3 (for my ARC-170)
clone commander

i passed on:

Mas Amedda
Exploding Grievous
and of course all the previous figures.

both wal-marts i visit had them. the pilot seems to be the easiest to find so far, but i would expect that to change as the ARC-170 becomes more available. there were several collectors in the store while i was, which is unusual around here.

 

Although it was a long time ago that I collected the figures, I have, however, been spending a heap on Star Wars Gentle Giant, my main collecting interest.

Here's my bounty of new acquisitions of mini-busts:

Boba Fett
Clone Trooper (Blue/ Lieutenant)
Clone Trooper Commander
Clone Trooper (Green/ Sergeant)
Bossk

I actually just got a silver Boba Fett in the mail that I bought. It's sealed in acryllic and certified U85 by the AFA.

 

went to tru today to get Star Wars Stratego, and to my suprise they had put 30+ Holo Yodas on the rack with all the other figs. So I bring two up to the register and the scan as $9.99 (what it's supposed to be) but I said "Ummm that was on a rack priced at $5.29, they all are" so the cashier calls the manager over, and actually changes the price to $5.29 for me! woohoo! I basically got a 2 for 1 deal on em.

Well thats my day!

(If anyones interested, it's the tru in douglaston NY)

 

My TRU isn't that weak minded, they know everything they're suppose to know.

 

I actually just waved my hand passed their face and said "You want to sell it to me for $5.29"

X

 

"You will take me to the Palpatine #35 now."

 

Picked up KOTOR 2 for the X-Box last night.

Behind the times, yes...but I had couldn't afford the time I knew the game would devour from my schedule until I finished up some other priorities.

Now it's gaming fun time.

I refuse to believe that the ARC-170 exists...as I have yet to see it.

 

I'm pretty sure I've seen it.
