Received my Luke/Leia Speederbike Set and 2008 Medicom Collector's Boxed Set.  That wraps up all the Medicom Boxed Sets for me.  I wasn't sure I'd ever track all of those sets down.

Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas!  Those are some nice acquisitions.  Did you land them off Ebay?

Nope, like you, I got them from forum member bigj22's for sale thread!

Had my 3PO/R2 Kubrick and Vader/Stormie Be@rbrick sets delivered today.  Also picked up an extra Series 4 Emperor.

Are you going to use the Emperor for a custom or just going to display a second one differently?

I've been looking at the Bearbricks hear and there, but honestly I don't see the appeal on those guys.

I have two already; one displayed with the cane and the other displayed with the lightning in his hands.  I was planning on using this one strictly for the lightning.  I've wanted to have a Series 9 Dooku with lightning since it was released.  If you need the figure, let me know...

Thanks for the offer, but I'm strapped for space as it is.  I redid my display over the weekend and used up every single box (and still haven't unpacked the Rebo band).   :-\

Picked up the Jango/Boba 2-pack from forum member bigj22 and the J-slot Boba Fett chase figure from ebay.  Down to 1 box set and 5 chase figures to complete my collection...

That's one of them.  I also need the vinyl Jawa, blue coat Snaggletooth, old Anakin and Tion Medon.

Nice score on Sacul!  I have been eyeing that one, but haven't found it for a price I like yet.  Did you get it off the Bay?

Nope. I bought them off bigj22.

If you are looking for a loose Sacul he just put one up on ebay at a very good price. I'd be surprised if it lasted long. I was torn between the loose and the carded as I will ultimately be opening the figure. Decided to go for the carded in the end as I tought it a steal at $200.

Thanks for the tip!  I picked up the loose Sacul and Jar Jar as well.  I would have bought them off Ebay had I known they would be that low!  Jar Jar is one I had been avoiding, but I have all of the other "common chases," so it's really nice to check that off the list.  I figured Sacul would be one of the last ones I'd add to my collection, so great to find him as well.   ;D

By the way, I already bought a big batch of figs from Jerry and they were in great shape.  Don't hesitate to buy from him if you need any of the goodies he has up for sale!

Glad to help.

I have another batch of stuff coming from Jerry also. Once that arrives I'm very close to completing my collection. All I'm missing is Series 9, the Sith speeder, the Jango/Boba 2 pack and Saesee Tiin (which seems to be one of the most elusive figures).

I hope to be up to date by the time the Deluxe wave comes out.
