New Hamp Collecting finds

Oh yeah! I remember this Stormtrooper. He came with a weapons rack and when you put warm water on his chest plate, a "battle dammage" scorch mark would appear on it. I never saw them come to this area. Since the West Coast gets most of better products first, it's no wonder we never saw the first limited run of it. This is a fig I'd like to have in my collection. :-D

-Cephas

 

I don't like going to the Salem Walmart because whenever I go there they never have anything. It seems to me that the Salem Walmart is one of the worst places when it comes to distribution. Has anyone seen the Yavin four wave yet?

 

i don't know if anyone is interested, brooks pharmacy in portsmouth has like 10 episode 1 figures at $5 a pop. i know you can't even give these away, i was just surprised to see them still on a shelf.

 

Saturday Jason and I were out and I checked Target in Salem just to see what they had and the only figure's they had were Hoth Attack Luke Skywalker, R-3PO, R1-G4 which I think is from Jabba's Palace and a Hoth Trooper. We also checked the Walmart in Plaistow but they didn't have any new figure's. Sunday Jason and I went to the Cantina because Cephas said that he and TK would be at the Cantina around noon time. Cephas showed up but TK never made it. He showed us the pictures of Empire strikes Boston and then the video which was really cool.

He also played TROOPS on his laptop for us and it was awesome. We only stayed for a little while because Rik had work to do and Cephas had a role playing game to go to. I got the Unleashed Clone Trooper which I haven't seen in stores yet. Rik also had the Unleashed Yoda but someone bought it. He also told us that he had the Unleashed X-wing Luke Skywalker and the Unleashed Chewbacca but he sold out of them.

Rik also got in the Grand Moff Tarkin mini bust and the Master Replica's Jango Fett blasters. He also got in some new figure's.

 

Hey guys, I just want you to know that the hunt is finally over. Last Friday morning my father and I went to Mattress Discounters in Salem after work. We stopped at K-mart but they didn't have much for figure's and Then we stopped at Toys R' US in Salem to see if they had anything. They had a bunch of figure's but they didn't have anything new. However they did have two Throne Room Duel Vader's and I got both of them. I had been looking for Vader for quite some time but I was having no luck. I'm so happy that I was able to finally get him.

 

You weren't wrong about the figures at the TRU, DJ! I haven't seen so many Vader's, Luke's and Snowtroopers! They also had the brown coat Hoth Han, and of course the Fett, Solo and Yoda Unleashed. Nothing else though.... would like to know when the Hall of Fame assortment will be coming out...

 

Hey John, when did they get the Brown coated Han Hoth, Luke Skywalker, and the Yoda Unleashed in because when we went to the Salem Toys R' US they didn't have those. The only Unleashed that I saw was Han Solo. The Han Hoth that I saw was the Blue coated Han Hoth or at least I thought it was. Last night after Jason and I went to the movies in Derry we stopped in to Walmart just to see what they had and I got the Ultra figure Jabba the Hutt.

 

just got back from toys 'r us in portsmouth. they have vader, luke-duel, boba fett, han-hoth, snowtrooper among others.

 

Concord TRU had all kinds of Holo Luke's, ROTJ Luke's, Lando's, basically the whole series plus the new unleashed figs too. They are having a good deal where if you spend $14.99 on star wars you get a 3 3/4" fig for free. So it's like buy 3 get one free. It's good for us who like to by 2 of each.

 

Hey guys, last night Jason gave me a ride to the Target in Salem to see if the Collector cups were there. They didn't have the Collector cups but they did have Clone War Cartoon figure's. I ended up getting Count Dooku. They had Obi-Wan, Anakin, Durge, and Yoda. They didn't have the Clone Trooper or Assaj Ventress. I also checked K-mart but they didn't have anything. Then I went to Toys R'US to see what they had and I got the Brown coated Han Hoth. They had the 12'' inch Obi-Wan Kenobi from a New Hope also. I'm going back to Toys R' US tonight to get it.

 

Hey guys, saw the new Battle of Yavin wave at te Plaistow and Concord (Yes, Concord!) Wal-Marts. I picked up the TIE Fighter pilot.. probably the best sculpt of it yet! I also saw at the Salem TRU the Obi Wan Ultra Kamino showdown figure... not a bad sculpt either!

 

HI All,

I found a couple of the new Battle of Yavin figures at the Walmart in Somersworth the other day myself. Oh and YES I said Somersworth. I know, I know, I always say they have NOTHING...lol but I did find 2...

Dutch Vander "Gold Leader"
General Jan Dodonna

That all for now.....
SeeYa!!
TK

 

I've been looking for the Tie Fighter pilot and Gold leader for a while now. I've been asking Jason if the Derry Walmart had those and finally he said that he saw General Dodonna but not the other ones. I'm going to Toys R' US Sunday to see if I can get a silver clone trooper so we'll see if they have them.

 

I got my silver clone with my purchase of the Padme unleashed.

Saw skiff lando, rebel pilot at concord wall mart.

Cartoon Network Clone Wars Mace Windu, yoda, Ventress, and Dooku at Target.

 

I went to the Salem Toys R' US Sunday but they didn't have the new figure's. I had to leave my name and phone number because they didn't have any Silver Clone Troopers. The guy said that they would have them in a couple days. Saturday Jason and I went to the movies and before we went to see the movie we stopped into the Menthuen Walmart. They had some of the Yavin four wave figure's but not the ones I was looking for. They had General Jan Dodonna and the latest fan choice figure. Then we checked Kaybee because we hadn't been there in quite a while and you'll never quess what I found. A 12 inch Lando Calrissian figure way back from 96 with the Kenner logo on the back. It was way in the back and the Kaybee employee said that it had been there for a long time and that knowone had bought it. I got it for ten bucks plus tax which made it 10.49 but that's still a good deal in my opinion. I'm not sure but Rik may have the same one but I'll bring it to the next meeting whenever that is.

 

Hey guys, Toys R' US called me this afternoon to tell me that my Silver Clone Trooper came in and that they would hold it for me till the end of tommorrow. I'll probably go get it after the Clone Wars Cartoons are over tonight.

 

ToysRUs in Concord had three new 10.99 sets. Jabba the hutt, bomar monk; frog thing and tounge slug, and finally Jango fett Kamino something or other where he has magnet on his fore arms so you can flip him onto a pillar and he will latch on Supposedly. They also had plenty of silver clones left too.

 

Tuesday night after the Clone War Cartoons were over I went to the Salem Toys R' US to pick up my Silver Clone Trooper and I bought the Ultimate Bounty Hunter set. It's pretty cool but the only thing I don't like about it is the Aura Sing figure is not articulated enough. The Boba Fett figure, Bossk figure, and the IG-88 figure are probably the best ones.

 

I have a question guys after my father and I left work we had to go to the grocery store to pick up a couple of things and I got all three of the Chef Boyardee cans with Star Wars Clone War Cartoons on them. I want to save the cans after I get done eating them but my father said that the cans will rust. I'm thinking of cutting the labels off and putting them in a freezer bag to protect them.

 

Hey guys, I have a question for you this afternoon I put the Clone Trooper mini bust together that I got at the last meeting. I noticed that there was marks on the mini bust and I was just wondering if that's supposed to be like that. The other thing is the mini bust and the other pieces were wrapped up in tissue paper and when I unwrapped them some of the tissue paper stuck to the mini bust and the pieces. I was able to watch the rest of the Clone War Cartoons after the hockey game got over and I was disheartened to see a technical glitch with Chapter 16. Jason took one of my tapes and recorded all twenty Chapters for me because I wanted them on VHS. It's really unfortunate that it happened but I got most of it. I haven't gotten a chance to watch them yet but I'll probably watch them in a couple of days. If you guys want I can bring the tape at the next meeting if we have time to watch them.

 

Hey guys, yesterday I had an appointment in Derry and then after my appointment my father and I went to Salem because my father had to get a handicap permit. Then after we left the DMV we stopped into Toys R'US to see if they had any new figures. The only thing they had was the Obi-Wan Kamino Showdown figure that John mentioned and they also had the Jango Fett Kamino Showdown figure so you could recreate the scene from Episode two. Then we stopped into Target to see if they had those collector cups and they did. I got Obi-Wan Kenobi and they also had Darth Maul too. They also had the Hall Of Fame Line that John was talking about. I got C-3PO Death Star Rescue but they also had R2-D2 Tatooine Mission, Chewbacca Escape from Hoth, Luke Skywalker Tatooine Encounter, and the Stormtrooper that John has been looking for. They didn't have Death Star Clash Vader which is the other one that I'm looking for. They had two of the Chewbacca Escape from Hoth and two of the Luke Skywalker Tatooine Encounter. They only had one of C-3PO Death Star Rescue and one of the Stormtrooper however. They also have Luke Skywalker in X-wing gear and Princess Leia in Slave atire for the collector cups.

 

I was down in Norfolk, VA last week and picked up the Luke (Battlefield Hoth) and the Master Yoda Unleashed figures. I haven't taken them out of the package yet but they both look very impressive. The only thing that's kinda wierd about the Yoda figure is that they designed it so that he looks like he's got a third leg with no foot! What I mean is in order to attach Yoda to the base you have to snap together the clear-curved piece (used to simulate him jumping) to the "third leg" underneath Yoda's robe. Not that I plan on spending a lot of time looking up under his robe or anything, but it just looks... well... wierd.

 

i didn't notice that. Mine is still in pack. I will say I thought it was intresting how they did yodas feet. Almost like a Koala.

 

Take a look at yours, just look at it from the bottom under Yoda's robe. They may have used a Koala as a model for this figure, it's a bit longer than a tail but it does kinda resemble one .

 

DJ, as you probably know by now, the nicks and marks on the Clone Trooper bust are supposed to be like that. I have them on mine as well. Adds a nice 'used' touch to it
