Lately, I have seen the 'new' set Rebels and Imperials 'boosters' at Wal Mart stores in the SW isle.
Info only- for those that didn't know this is a 'refresher set' that includes 2 Mini's per 'booster' and retail was $5+. This set is meant to give folks a chance at figs missed from other sets..there are 24 total different pieces to get(12 are VR or R's).

They are very small on cardback with a 'Vader Helmet' blister hiding the 2 random included pieces.
I noticed them last week-my shocker was that they are at WM- a store I haven't seen mini's since ROTS.

Are the mins in this just repacks from Rebel Storm or from some other sets as well?

Frankly, you'd think people would be better off buying 7 minis in a Rebel Storm booster from a comic store for $14

Hey everyone!   A friend of mine just got back from Disney World and actually was able to pick up a Doikk Na'ts for me.   For $16 this is a total rip off.   Granted, we all knew these were repacks of the cantina tin, that the bases didn't interlock and that they all played the same Cantina tune.   I thought it would be cool to add some actual music to my Cantina dianoga and figured I get one of these.   I'm so pissed that there's is that there's like 10seconds of music.
I figured they'd at least put the whole song in there but no... Hasblo are cheapskates!

Just completed a great minis trade with Darth Slothus- Got my Aurra Sing Very Rare mini from the new Alliance and Empire set in record time and in great condition!  Thanks for the trade and setting my Feedback thread up!

Any extras of a Maul around 

I've got an extra for you so long as you aren't looking for Mint in Mint Package.  The packaging is good to very good and the batteries have of course run out.   Let me know if you're still looking for one!

I now have 2 open ones.   I just WISH Hasblo included a Kama for them though

We can get them at Toys R Us here, although their stocking seems to be a bit erratic at times. If you end up wanting someone here to get some for you and ship them out, I would be willing. They run just under $7.00 after tax. You could probably get 3-4 in a letter post size box-

They're also great for the WOTC Star Wars Miniatures!

The Winner is...

Congratulations to Oboewan and thanks to all those who entered!

Thanks Jeff!  Now I can arm my vintage stormtroopers who are currently melee fighters only!

Don't trash them! If you're like me you need to rotate older collectibles out to make room for newer ones, and you'll need these boxes to store them in. If you move you'll be kicking yourself, for tossing them, and if, God forbid, you ever have to sell them, the packaging will add to their value.

Trashing them is NOT an option I'm looking into at this time.....I think the only one I ditched was the Jabba box and I'm keeping the Throne room in the mailer box in an tiny outdoor "shed" as an experiment for possible future storage.  It's just not the best place to put things of any value.   I suppose I can use rubbermaid type bins to store stuff in there as well.    I'm just plain running out of room in the condo and have no clue what to do with the boxes at this point.   I guess I'll stick em in one of my closets for the time being- provided I can make some room.

Any other thoughts?
