    all Kmart has left for Attack of the Clones are the usual keychain lightsaber and Fett pistol, two Female tuskens, one super battle droid 3 inch figures. Then one Slave 1 for 12 bucks along with the puzzle box in metal box form I think then the usual 12 inch Kenobi and Super battle droids for 12 bucks

    Then there's the Transformers line which I saw an Optimus Prime Armada figure in a blister card package like the star wars figures are in and Optimus is being sold for 9.99

    K-Mart has its uses still where I'm concerned. I was able to pick up some 12" figures on clearance where Wal-Mart was still charging full price. Also for other non-SW stuff. I needed Virus software and Wal-Mart stayed sold out, went to K-Mart and they had shelf fulls. Same thing with The Two Towers soundtrack. For new SW stuff both Wal-Mart and K-Mart are on equal ground in my hometown....nothing new. :(

    The K-Mart in my town is closing so I go in every few days to check the mak down. I've gotten a Jedi Starfighter for 11.00 so far. :D

    I have to say that the Kmart in my area(San Jose, California) is pretty sad looking. Last time I went there I saw a bunch of Mace Windus(small version) and one Watto.

    Kmarts here in Oregon are pretty worthless. They are down to about 8 figures and some clearance stuff. The best thing I have found at Kmart is a Holo Sid a few years ago.

    The only luck I've had at K-Mart is with getting the really hard to find figures. I got both my Dooku (back in the early days when they were impossible to find) and Ephant Mon at local K-marts. I'm sure the only reason I found them there was because no one else wanted to waste their time going to K-Mart.... :p

    I got a 12 inch Zam Wessel there for 10 bucks. Other than that, Raymond Babbitt put it best at the end of Rain Man.

    There are these two K-Marts on my side of town that seem to get the hard to find figures especially during the April 23rd wave of Episode 2 stuff. I got my Dexter with background insert from a K-Mart and I got Ephont Man opener from K-Mart as well. They had a sale a few months ago for 2 days all 3 3/4 figures were 2.99. I got a ton of clone pilots that day. Also right before Christmas I bought a 12 inch Dooku for 10 bucks or so. So it still has moments. But to be fair ALL the stores in my area have had no new 2003 product. I haven't bought a new 3 3/4 figure in over a month.

    K-Mart was the only place in my area selling the arena playset before Christmas.
