I keep looking at the stacks of these at TRU and keep hoping they put them on sale again.  I want one, but not for $250.  $150 and it's mine.

Same boat... I don't have a spot for one, but I've wanted one for years.  They're $274.99 at the TRU near me... that's obscene.

According to Yakface, this is coming back to Target and Galaxy's Edge... my last post didn't age well, and at this point I'd pay $400 for one if it'll display as an OT Falcon.

The Vintage Collection / Wow - Modern eBay Auctions
« on: June 7, 2020, 02:37 PM »
I was just looking around eBay to see if I could find any production samples of cancelled Hasbro 3.75" items and stumbled across completed auctions for comic pack figures.  Some of these are selling for $150 to $300 for a pair of figures and I started thinking we should have a modern version of this thread that we have in the Vintage section.

Like... $300 for KASHYYYK TROOPER + COMMANDER BOGEY Republic Comic Pack STAR WARS Legacy 3.75in.



$270 for Exar Kun

$180 for Rohlan Dyre and Jararel



$250 for Deliah Blue and Darth Nihl



Like... when did this become a $330 pile of figures?!



I know these might be outliers because I was narrowing my search by highest price sold to find expensive items, but I had no idea some of this stuff sells for this kind of money.  I always figured my collection was worth $5 to $10-ish per figure on average, now I'm not so sure...

If you see crazy 1995-present auctions, post them here!

Watto's Junk Yard / How's everyone doing?!
« on: March 23, 2020, 05:31 PM »
Since everything is basically come to a screeching halt... I figured we could commiserate here and see how everyone is.  We were buying a new condo and backed out of it last week just because nothing seems stable and I didn't want to dump our nest egg into real estate until I feel better about it.  I'm working from home, so far so good, but it's all weird.

Chicago is Shelter in Place, so we're only going out for exercise and groceries at the moment.

How are you doing?

Not sure if you guys all saw this, but incase it was interesting to any of you, it seemed worthy of a thread... the mockup pages look awesome.  The only thing I can't stand about this kind of thing is that they're incomplete after a few months... I went ahead and backed it for now so I could get the tier I wanted before they sell out... it's jumped $9,000 in the 20 minutes between when I learned about it and when I posted this...

Kenner Retro Collection / 3rd Party Kenner Retro-Style Toys
« on: May 26, 2019, 11:04 AM »
I don’t know if it’s real, and I can’t figure out how to post it here from my phone, but in the RS thread for this line someone has a screen grab from Home Bargains showing a retro collection Bantha and Sand Person.  I can’t find it on the site but it LOOKS legit.

I’m really excited about that Jabba’s playset / dio piece.  That’s the highlight of the day for me.

The vintage Tarkin makes the retro line more interesting to me for sure... do we know details on the exclusive and how tough it’ll be to get.

Watto's Junk Yard / 4K TV's
« on: March 9, 2018, 10:34 AM »
Anyone have one? 

What do you have?

Pros and cons of that model?

I'm thinking about buying one, I'm leaning towards the Sony X930e and while I've been reading a lot, I don't have a lot of recommendations from people who I KNOW don't have an agenda.

So I'm curious.

???

They're asking about vehicles now... I haven't chimed in but I'm leaning towards a better scaled Sith Infiltrator, Krennic's Ship, and Ghost.

Vintage Kenner / Does anyone know details on this unproduced Luke?
« on: November 18, 2017, 10:39 AM »
I found these photos years ago and saved them... but I have no idea what the context is.  Does this Luke exist in any small quantities or is this it?

UPDATE: 

Last winter I bought a huge lot of figures that got me maybe 75% of the way there (Thanks Jeff!).  I finally put together a checklist of everything (I think) that I’m missing.  I’m open to any reasonable offers… so if you have Clone Wars figures to part with, please take a look! 

FYI, I don’t care about action figure stands or dice or pack in cards… The figures and their accessories is all I need.

I'm looking to collect them now. Carded or loose is fine, but I'm looking for them to be complete, and I'm only interested in carded if there's a good deal to be had, since I'd be opening them anyway.

Thanks!

EDIT:  I should mention that I have the super-stylized ones that came out before the regular line started.  I'm just looking for the regular 3.75" line.


EDIT: Got the last one... I'm all set.
