I wish my Target would locate 2 cases of ROTJ in the back.  I still need Giran and the grey Ugnaught from the revision case of ROTJ.

My Target got at least 2 cases of the figures but I never saw the whole wave on the pegs at any one time and never saw the Giran figure at all.  And since WM is on to the ROTS pallet display, I'm guessing they skipped the ROTJ wave alltogether.

One of Hasbro's answers yesterday about this was interesting though; sounds like they held back some product in order to get all the waves into the stores somewhere.  So I don't know if ROTJ will suddenly pop up at WM or ESB at Target, but I'm betting on getting screwed so I won't be disappointed if they don't show.

I got my sets the other day along with the crummy Power Ranger set - looks worse in person.  sigh...Happy with the Joker sets though for the most part.

Picked up 4 of the Legacy bogo packs this morning at WM for $7.46 a pop with the $5 coupon.  Mostly army builders...good deal!   :)

This isn't technically Legacy, nor a purchase, but I thought it would interest everyone in general but largely I'm thinking army builders with this too...

I reviewed a set of stands I got from Marauder Gun-Runner accessory store, and I think some of you guys may find the stands interesting.  Check it out right here!  I know not everyone visits the Other Toys section and wanted to make sure anyone looking for a new way to display their loose collection had seen these because I really am loving them.

My only recent Legacy Purchases, besides the Resurgence in the Force battlepack, has been random army builders cheap at Wal-Mart, so this came at a pretty good time for me since I'm amassing a bigger pile of plastic guys to line up in many rows now, haha.

I'm going to have to check those stands out for my Battalion. Maybe they can give me a bulk deal.

It's worth a shot.  One of the cool things though is a simple row of figures lined up and displayed is equally easy to move, run the dust stick, then move them back.  That kind of value alone sold me...  the army building thing though, that was a huge positive for me since a lot of my guys, once displayed, will be in simple straight ranks front to back.

Found two cases of the ROTJ revision wave at WM tonight so I picked up the Ugnaught and Giran that I needed. That about finishes me for the year.  WM is still running the $6 promo as well.

Picked up a couple more ROTJ wave from the K-Mart sale, and plan to hit another KM and hope for some scanner techs hanging about.

WM's here are CLOGGED to the gills with all the remainders of those pallets.  Lots of Legends, CW3D, and ROTS wave pegwarmers.  >:(

Picked up a Resurgence of the Jedi battle pack this morning on the way to work.

Nice set, hopefully I'll find a second one soon so I can open one of them up!

Scored Quinlan Vos/Faie and Luke/Clone Emperor CPs @ $6.99 each at a MARSHALLS! :o I was so shocked to see both packs there! I already have the Luke/Emperor pack, so I bought the one I did at Marshalls for my lil' brother for Christmas. It wouldn't hurt to search your local Marshalls stores for Star Wars products - $6.99 for a CP is quite a steal!

Found the Grub, Endor, and Jedi battlepacks today... talk about $80 I didn't want to spend right now.

Good riddance to the battlepack line.

Our local WM had three of the Dewback sets on the shelf, just crammed in there with the rest of the SW stuff (no price label or anything), so I went ahead and picked up my 2nd.  I was shocked to see that they had both the AT-ST and Dewback on the shelves, while having nothing but CW figures on the pegs.
