I cleared up a LOT of **** I needed tonight...

-Final Geo 2-pack I needed.
-ROTJ Luke I wanted for the 2nd way to display him (Now I just need an extra Leia & I'd like about 10 Panno's for army building).
-Gelagrub Battlepack (and it hurt, oh it hurt)
-ROTS Wave in its entirety (halle-friggin'-lujah)
-TRU TIE Interceptor for Christmas.
-And...  AT-ST's, finally.  :D  Saw them at about half the WM's I visited tonight...  The other half, nothing.

Saw zip from the ANH wave all night though at any store, and that's a little disconcerting but I'll keep looking and maybe hope for them to surface en masse on Hasbro Toy Shop, and just plunk down an order.  It's the only wave out currently that has an army builder I really want 20-ish of though, and that stings.

I also am dreading finding that variant Ugnaught.  That's got me worried.

Beyond that stuff I really am just behind the Endor 2.0 Battlepack, Rishi Outpost Battlepack, and 2 Katarn/Vong comic packs.  That's really over half the stuff I wanted I figure, found tonight.  I feel a lot better about collecting at the moment.

Wow...Good score Jesse!  I'm done with my collecting everything Hasbro, but there's still a few things I'd like to pick up.

I also am dreading finding that variant Ugnaught.  That's got me worried.

Hit us up on the MN side!  I've seen lots of these guys out in the wild in case you're worried.   :)

I may do that, actually.  Thanks iFett, I appreciate it.

Scored the variant Ugnaught this morning.  Saw pretty much a whole case of the ROTJ wave.  The distressing thing though is that Target only seems to be restocking TLC RED one case at a time.  That really bites when almost every figure is now packed 1 per case.

Ok - so over the past week I've scored:

2x WalMart Exclusive Dewback
1x Concept IG-88
1x Utai
1x Jeremoch Colton
1x Agen Kolar
1x Plo Koon
1x Commander Cody
1x Commander Bacarra (ROTS Legacy Wave Repack)
1x Stormtrooper (ROTS Legacy Wave Repack)


Should I be concerned that I have YET to see Wave 10 (the ANH wave)?

I've seen the complete ANH wave by now over 2-3 Wal Marts in my area, but have yet to see the ROTS one.  It will likely be around in time...

Nevermind - on my way home from work, I hit a WM and found and picked up the following:

2x BD29 R2-D2
2x BD30 Han Solo (Death Star Escape)
2x BD31 Chewbacca (Falcon Co-Pilot)
2x BD32 Imperial Scanning Crew
2x BD33 Hrchek Kal Fas
2x BD34 Leesub Sirln
1x BD35 Padme Amidala
1x BD37 Clone Commander Deviss {repack}
1x BD38 Ki-Adi-Mundi (Episode III Concept Art)
2x BD39 Jawa & 2X-7KPR Droid

I just need to score one more Ki-Adi-Mundi Concept Art figure and the Boba Fett '09 Legacy Collection Repack with the ANH wave droid part and I'm done with this wave...

Has anyone come across the ANH or ROTS Legacy waves at Target yet?  I hear them getting more and more ROTJ figures, but nothing beyond that.  Seems like that's a good recipe to gum up their distribution again.   :-\

Came across the ROTS wave at a couple WMs this morning. Scored a complete set of six to open and a Concept IG-88 for a friend.

These should start appearing more often at my local Targets around December. Right now there's a hoard of ROTJ and TPM coming out that have been needing to catch up.

I found ESB Wave 6, AOTC Wave 7, and oddly ROTS Wave 11 at Kohl's today for $7.03/each.

I bought Wave 11 Cody, Agen Kolar, and the Utai.  I didn't want the other ones.

About Cody, can't beat the new articulation, but by God, they didn't eliminate that pin head from the TSC version.  With the helmet on, he looks great though.  Love the Sidious holo pack-in.

Just because YOU haven't found the latest waves at YOUR local Target doesn't translate to Target having "distribution" problems.  Sheesh. 

Found the ANH wave at Target.

Found the ANH wave at Target. 

That's good to hear - I still need a MOC Boba Fett repack from this wave along with an opener of the Concept Ki-Adi-Mundi so I can finish off the wave. My WMs are getting the ROTS wave more than the ANH wave, so I hope that I'm able to score both figures soon.

Came across 6 dewbacks at Walmart, I picked one up.

I wasn't as tempted to get a 2nd dewback as I was a 3rd AT-ST.  That chicken walker couldn't be any more awesome.

Agreed.

Picked one up this morning at Wal-Mart.  The 1st time I've seen it around here.  Finally.
