Found an Ahsoka. It's one impressive figure.

Resistance Trooper is now under $10 at Amazon if anyone is looking to army build.  Zuvio still twice the price.

Yeah, they were like $8.74 when I checked this morning...that is a great price. I wouldn't mind having another green helmet guy or two, but no way of telling what you would actually receive.

Picked up Ahsoka and Kanan this morning - both great figures, love that Kanan's lightsaber hilt comes apart into two pieces to snap into his belt like on the show.

Found an Ahsoka the other day at WM (which I'm giving to a local collector buddy), and last night I found the new Lightsaber Variant Rey at a local comic shop. I made the dumb decision to buy it... for $30. :(

The comic store looked to have ordered some of the revision Wave 1 cases, since they also had the FO Stormie and Chewie, two figures I haven't seen on the pegs in ages. I think they buy wholesale product from Entertainment Earth as well, which explains why they have it.

Went to our (local-ish) K-Mart's closeout sale.  I saw a bunch of the new Rey exclusive down to ~$18.  They had a TON of Jakks figures in various sizes.  I want their 15-ish R2-D2 when the price gets a little better.

Aside from that, pricing was pretty meh.

On the topic of sales, Gamestop finally dropped the price on the 6" Clone Trooper to $9.97 so I picked up the last one I could find in my area. Might be worth checking their website to see if there are any left near you...

Picked up Jango Fett and Kanan for $14.95 at Walmart. That seems to be their regular price for 6" black series.

I saw that pricing at my local Walmart, too.  I think they're going that route in order to clear out old stock in preparation for the new line look that will get launched with ROGUE ONE.

A couple of Targets here have hit 50% off clearance, so I have started grabbing cheap Kylos for some additional Knights of Ren. Also some extra Guavians because I just love those dudes. For $10 a pop I don't feel as guilty about that kind of stuff.  :P

Cleaned out the last few remaining figures of interest at the area Targets today...Kylo, Guavian, TIE Pilot, etc. nothing left now but the "Final Five" : Zuvio, Finn, and Resistance/Snow/Flame troopers. Good luck getting rid of those guys!

These are down to $12 at Walmart as well.  I snagged a Poe and another Kanan for customizing.

Waiting for the eventual clearance paid off!  I found two 6" Black Series First Order TIE Fighters in the Target clearance aisle for $50.98 each.  OMG were these boxes beat up!  But I picked one up, and it was $55 and change after taxes. 

Before I went to the store I ran a Brickseek search.  Most stores in my area are still pricing the 6" TIE Fighter at $84.98, but stock levels are dwindling quickly at the $50.98 price point.  And it came back with both prices and inventory amounts at specific stores.  Only 3 out of the 20 stores that came back in my search had the lower price point, and those stores only had 1 - 3 units on hand.

While I know that there's likely to be another price reduction, I didn't want to miss out on this vehicle.  And considering the condition of the box I actually cracked it open in the parking lot just to make sure it was okay, and sure enough it was.

I finally found a Cassian Andor figure with good paint apps this morning at Target, so I was happy to pick that up. Had not opened either of the other two I had gotten in hopes of upgrading.

He's not a bad figure, but not one I would have picked to carry forward.
