Did pretty well over the past few days - found four of the foil variant UGH figures at my local Target: Cody, AT-AT Driver, Boba Fett & Snowtrooper - basically four of the six that I want REALLY bad as foil variants. If I can score a Scorch & Vader now, I'll be happy, I never expected to find four so fast.

I've also managed to score almost 2 complete sets of the Coruscant wave - I'm missing a Cody and Holo Ki-Adi Mundi opener and then I'll be done with the wave from a regular figure standpoint.

Of course, I'll keep scouring the stores to find as many UGH foil variants as I can get my hands on... even if I keep seeing the same figures over and over, I'll use them to trade for the rest of the 10.

Scored my 1st U clone this morning (1st of many, not 100 but maybe 5).  I had to wait for the hot wheels guy to put it down and pick up the Galatic Hunt Boba Fett but once he did it was all mine. 

The stock "boy" at this Target collects SW so only about half of the case makes it out at a time.  I have seen him bring out only 3 or 4 figures in his hand before while keeping the rest for him.  But screw it, I gots me a clone. ;D

Hey Gatillo! Which Target did you hit this morning? I'm in Columbus and I figure if the store has a guy collecting than our options are always going to be minimal unless he only gets one or two for himself and passes on the rest.

Today I found utapau clone, regular variant vader, general grievous, boba fett (probably the regular variant-flames packed under his feet) and a ki adi mundi holo figure. I also spoke to the guy at one of our local TRU and discovered they are behind on waves so they won't have the hunt figures any time soon so I may hold out that I'll get lucky there. I didn't care to hunt these down before but now that the galactic hunt is on I figure I'd have a better chance of finding the harder to find regular figures now. There's a toy show I'm hitting this Sunday so I'm curious to see what the Hunt figures are being taxed at. Probably $50ea as mentioned on another post, I'll bet the vaders are taxed at $100 after seeing what some have gone for on ebay.

I was at Lennox.  Since I work at OSU that is the one I hit in the morning.  My wife went to the Sawmill one on her way to work and said the pegs were clogged with new figures but I will not make it that way today.  There were no clones there but a lot of figures she had never seen, probably the coruscant wave.

Hit Target after work and found the renmants of the Coruscant wave.  There were 5 Kenobis and 6 Anis.  I got me a Lushros and left one there.  There were a lot of Hoth and Carkoon figures there.  Overall I was happy to see the pegs fully stocked.

First time poster as well ... :)

I know people are finding Cody and the Battle of Coruscant wave. I've been looking for weeks now and NOTHING....

Then this morning at the local Target....
I FINALLY found the 2 Coruscant waves  however no Cody, no Firespeeder Pilot, no Lushros Dofine and no Foul Moudama; only 4 clone troopers, 2 Holographic Ki-Adi-Mundi, 2 General Grievous and like 6 Anakin Skywalker and 6 Obi-Wan Kenobi...what is going on?



Welcome aboard! As far as your find, I haven't memorized all the assortments, but I'm fairly confident that you just happened upon the cases assortment W/O Cody or the fire pilot. The fact that upi found Clone troopers is a good sign that you were the first one there.

Neat story to share. Out hunting and found no Cody's but parts of Coruscant wave. Anyway, they also had 2 Scorches and 6 Utapau Clones.  As I was pulilng some UGH figures for a fellow collector, a mom came around and was looking. I offered to help and suggested some figures and she said that her son had those (she was looking for a b-day party for her son).  Anyway, I said kids like clones and she said, yeah, that's ture and took a Utapau Clone. I then reached up and pulled a Scorch out from the behind the figures and said, here is a clone from a video game called . . . and she said cool and took the figure. 
Nice to hook up a kid with a figure made for a kid.

Found the remaint of Coruscant at Target,Foul.I quickly scooped him up & searched to see if someone hid a stash,no stashes today.I like Foul but I would of prefered Foul being a brand-new figure instead of a rehash.

Saw the remnants of the Coruscant wave at Target, Cody. I passed on him. First time I've seen a figure on the pegs in weeks. Still looking for the Firespeeder Pilot and EU Talz Jedi. Fortunatly, I preordered my Lushros and it will ship March 31st!
