It was easier finding the second set of pit droids than the first for me.  Don't know if everyone else feels the same, but I sure found it to be that way.

Out of the first ones the most difficult set for me to find was the Red ones. Now with the second set I can't find the Orange ones.
I remember my dream now.

Took me about three months to get the first set of standing droids and round two took less than a week on the sitting versions.

I couldn't find the orange set for the life of me from the first series, and finally pulled a favor with someone on another board that I knew with a set.  With this set, I've seen all 3 colors 3 times now, usually in the same wave it seems.  I was pleased to buy red and grey at one time, then I found orange a couple days later at the same store...

It really does feel good when you complete this set.  I don't know why, or if it's that feeling of how rare these once were and now you've got them...  It's good having them now.

Although Gree and the Kashyyyk Trooper were out of stock, I ordered the Tri Droid and Panning Droid (and Anakin) off of HTS.  Aside from Gree, I'll be all caught up with Wave 1, although I wouldn't mind getting some extras eventually.

Within the last 24 hours I picked up the following at Targets in Minneapolis area:

 - New Orange Legends Pit Droids
 - 4 New Evolutions sets
 - 2/3 of latest comic packs (got the Rebs in disguise, but not the Rep Commando one)

I'm also seeing an organe pauldron Legends Sandtrooper with sticker in the orange pit droid wave.  Anyone know if this is the same as the already released V4 or if its the new Evo version?  I haven't had time to look it over in any detail.

I ordered Gree, Kashyyyk Trooper, and the Tri-Droid from HTS last night, They only let me buy 1 Kashyyyk Trooper.  Found a McClammie @ TRU. Won a loose Jango (Evolutions) via Ebay. Picked up another Ponchango at Target. I'm done for the day, It's raining and everyone forgot how to drive.

Walmart - Figrin & Modal Nodes on clearance for $6.00, finally bought one cuz that's a good price just for the head and hands for customs.

TRU - Fett Legacy, Qui-Gon/Swan/Luke, Sith Evolutions packs.  Skipped TFO, I really only wanted the Jedi and that's not worth 20 rocks IMO.  I am stoked about the Fett set.  Qui Gon's head sucks, gonna have to do something about that.  But a great bunch of figures overall.

The limited you on the purchase of all 2008 Wave 1 figures - 1 of each. I tried to order two of each and it wouldn't let me put my order through until I had reduced my quantities to 1 of each.

They've done this before with figures from new waves.

Not sure if this is 30AC or Legacy, but I got the Jedi Evolutions Set at TRU today.  SA Qui-Gon, NJO Luke, and Butlar Swan (if I recall correctly).  Nice little set.
