    Picked up Darth Plaguies from Fred Meyer today. I've read that book many times whilst borrowing it from the library and it never gets old. Glad to have it in my collection now

    Had a Rogue One DVD poster arrive that I had ordered off of ebay. Why did I buy it? I have no idea, I have no room for it, but oh well. Guess I keep dreaming one day I'll win the lottery and be able to set up my enormous shrine and get one of those poster flippers to display all of my posters.

    Anyone find any good Black Friday deals? Just saw a report on CNBC that people were snapping up toys at Best Buy (Lego and SW were mentioned). They're trying to pick up the old TRU customers. So don't neglect that store if you have one near you!

    I got the steal of the century at Gentle Giant ltd online - being a premium guild member, I picked up 2 mini-busts that were already on sale, they were 60% off for PGM's of of the sale price, then I had coupons from my Premium Guild reward discount codes that I got to apply to each: So 2 busts who's original prices would've been $240 - I got them both for $57 - shipping included for each with that price. I got my Finn for just under $6.

    Been out and about a little...havent seen any new waves or even restocks. Maybe from China tariff? I don't know how no stores wouldn't stock up on Star Wars?!
    Did pick up Tie Silencer at Ross on clearance $9!
    Finally won auction with some modern figures including hard to get cantina members. Have some more vintage figs ordered so much to keep busy otherwise.

    I saw that Target had marked down the fully interactive BB 8 by 50% and some of the new items from Solo had good discounts but nothing I wanted to pick up. No sale on any Black Series. My local one had 1 Gamorrean Guard and 4 Moloch but the tops of the boxes were damaged by their box cutter.

    Last week when I was in town Entertainer had a few of those battery-powered Porgs that came out around TLJ time. TRU wanted £50 for them at the time and Entertainer wanted £15 (if I recall correctly. Might have been £20). I might be tempted if there are any left and the price reduces further. I'll see this week if I go to town.

    I succumbed to the Porg - £14.99 at Entertainer today. I think they had 3 or 4 on the shelf.

    Finally got the Resistance A-wing with Tallie Lintra at Five Below! Been waiting for them to get it in. It’s kind of funny that my Walmart has one on the shelf for $30 when you can get six at that price from 5B.

    Picked up a 12-inch Kylo figure/doll from Ross today. Also stopped by Barnes and Noble and picked up The Old Republic: Annihilation and Episode I: The Phantom Menace novelization. Got the paperback version, because it comes with the short story Darth Maul: End Game by James Luceno.

    I'm glad I bought the Porg last week - was in Entertainer today and they didn't have any left.

    Got my Black Series Dengar and Skiff Guard Lando through the post. Really happy with both figures. Lando has a nice likeness to Billy Dee and the detail on his weapon/armour is great. Dengar is awesome. Just waiting on Zuckuss now.

    Dropped off a ton of my collection to toys for tots today. Felt very good to not only make room for myself, but hopefully bring joy to some kids this holiday!

    Found a Rogue One Imperial ground crew trooper figure in a free bin at a local church thrift shop, complete with batons and jetpack thingy.
