    My first time trying to load an image (hooray claps). If this works, I have about almost 20 years to catch all of you up on. Can we use photobucket? If not what do we use?

    "Exciting is hardly the word I would choose"

    Who's ready for Fall Geek Out Friday at Target? I believe its an online event can anyone confirm?

    Images aren't showing up for me :/ Flickr (or maybe Imgur?) would be the safest bet these days I think?

    Mint condition 2000s re-release Bespin Cloud Car & pilot
    Bespin security guard
    Tantive IV diorama set (a second one so I can build a decent hallway!)
    B'omarr Monk
    RotJ Endor Leia
    A second Lobot (for customising into an Imperial cyborg, as seen in Rebels)
    30th Anniversary Y-Wing
    Pax Bonkik
    Mustafar Lava Miner
    30th Anniversary 2-1B surgical droid
    Bane Malar
    D'an Star

    And currently awaiting in the mail:
    General Jan Dodonna
    Hoth General Quarrie
    RMQ concept Threepio & Artoo (more customs fodder)
    Mimban Stormtrooper

    I'm happily at the point now where 99% of my purchases are either for rarer figures, occasional mint boxed ones, or second iterations of those I already have, for customising. One day I may actually get around to resuming that...!

    Got a Book club hard back copy of "Labyrinth of Evil" at a thrift store this weekend.
    Forgot also got a Hallmark Itsy Bitsy stuffed Kylo and a 6" First Order Flametrooper I think? figure.

    Then - ever since I read "Dark Disciple" I've been looking for Quinlan Vos stuff. There's a big Dark Horse omnibus w/ his comics but it's pricey - good condition ones start at $65. Last week I was on Amazon and found that in the used section for it and there was a "good" quality copy for $25. It was from Half Price Books. I know they don't buy junk so I got it. Got it in the mail - man....no spine damage, and only the slightest, barely noticeable issues on the covers. I've gotten new books in worse shape than it was. Woot! I was excited.

    My C-3PO/ Babu Frik Gentle Giant mini-bust arrived. I also got a lot w/ a bunch of SW paperback novels. I was happy I only had 1 of them. I'm working on catching up on like 15-20 years worth of novels that I need to get and plow through.

    I got: 2 Revan books, Darth Plagueis (that everyone keeps raving over,) 2 Darth Vader books, 2 Legends Clone Wars books, and 2 Legends Luke books. I also got Shatterpoint, which I'm currently reading.

    I'm completely obsessed w/ The High Republic books. I'm going to work w/a friend to create a series of 12" scale figures of the characters from that series. So far I've got ordered a green body/head that I'm going to try to turn into Jedi Knight Vernestra.

    Received SW: War of the Bounty Hunters and theSW: WOTBH Companion tpbs this week from Book Depository in the Amazon Marketplace (Amazon UK own them). Main Amazon UK site didn't have the books in stock. For UK folks I've used this seller before without problems but if you order multiple items note that they tend to ship them separately as things can come from different suppliers. The main book came earlier in the week and the Companion book came today - both via Royal Mail.
