    I've got a Nexu - it's currently sitting on top of the TV. Scary looking thing. I think mine came out when AOTC was showing.

    For some reason I just love them. One of the coolest new creatures when AOTC came out.

    Local semi-pro baseball team had Star Wars Night and we got a bobblehead of the mascot "Corny" dressed in Mando armor and labeled "The Mandacornian". For sure one of my..uh..unique collectables.

    Found some clearanced Retro figures and found a whole wave of the retro Prototype Boba Fett! Also received the two I managed to order. One bubble was all dented.

    Nothing new on the shelves since they were released months ago. Just two waves of TVC Han Endor and Leia Endor have been found all summer!

    Here's hoping the retail stores resets are here and we shall find new waves very soon.

    I recently had my Hot Toys ROS Rey/D-O and Ben Solo show up. And I'm obsessed w/ buying fan made pins.
    I did get the Grogu/Luke poster from SDCC w/ Grogu playing w/ lightsaber parts.

    I've also been devouring Star Wars novels all summer. I believe I just passed 20. My favorites are "The High Republic" books. They are seriously genius storytelling. If you haven't started reading them - do it NOW.

    Now that I'm sadly through the ones that are out I've started on Clone Wars books and I'm hooked.... I find the TV series rather difficult to follow because the eps are all out of order, the novels (so far, I'm really only on the first - Clone Wars: Wild Space) are linear storytelling and are fantastic reading. They make the A/P shipper in me very happy.

    I basically can care less if the books are Legend or Canon. GFFA stories are stories.

    I really love this series of books. I was really excited when I first learned of it and it hasn't disappointed. OotS was solid. Now I'm just waiting for the Graphic Novels to come out because January is sooo long to wait for the next batch of novels.

    Just had the TVC Imperial Troop Transport and TVC Assault Tank arrive in the mail as I went on a spending splurge, but even better than that:

    I finally managed to score a Hasbro Legacy Millennium Falcon for a mere fraction of its regular cost last week, on account of an eBay seller both undervaluing and not listing it properly... It's due tomorrow!!

    (where to fit it is a different matter entirely...)

    I received the Cyber Craft 'Jesse' Phase II helmet and a Roman Props Thermal Detonator this week. I'm expecting a pre-owned Anovos FO Stormtrooper helmet this week as well.
    I find it amusing how orders that can span several months turn up simultaneously.
