I finally broke down and bought the chair suit engineer from TRU. With my combination of rewards points, coupons etc it only came to $3. They had at least two of the other ones so I am sure I will be heading back for the rest at some point. They need another good sale on these!

Well-played, Greg. I only had the priority shipping option available but did not think to try placing them as 2 separate orders. I could have saved about $8 right there, rats.

Curious how long these will last before selling out, they were going strong as of today...

I saw this today at Marshall's for $79.99 during my Black Friday travels.

I just bought both of the new Negans - colored and B&W variant, priority USPS shipping for both came to $12. Since this is a new sort of promotion with no alternate retail outlet and a possibly limited run, I didn't want to take a chance and miss out. (Like I did on the Hobbit Azog and Radagast figures that were up on Amazon, still ruing that one)

I didn't spend a dime otherwise on Black Thursday Night so what the hell.

Saw the Omega Red Wave today at my local comic shop and picked up Aurora. I would have bought Northstar too but there was no sign of him. I too want to assemble my own Alpha Flight. I always loved anything John Byrne did.

I find it hard to make any compelling argument for Han over Boba. EVERYONE wants a Boba. A spare set of hands and extra blaster is nice, but who's really going to buy two at that price?

I have seen this wave at least six times now and Boba is always the first to go. That figure is crazy hot. He would have been a no-brainer for carry-forward if I ran the company.

Heck I bought another one and I already had the SDCC exlusive. He's impossible to resist.

Pretty sure that was just a Pre-Order for Plagueis, God knows when they would actually end up shipping him to you, you may find him in stores first.

Just in time for the holidays, it's Ozymandias to close out the line.   :)

 What a well-done body of work, I am happy for the ones we got. Never one regret about my subscription.

I saw remnants of this wave at three different Targets today, Boba was missing at every store. Glad I got him when I did. I also finally found a decent Greedo on the third try. (good eyes, no errant paint splotches, etc) Look forward to opening him up finally.

All the Leias I saw had noticeably better paint jobs on the eyes than the first few I recall seeing too.

Nice, I have been seeing pictures of a larger scale Knifehead but wasn't sure if it was just a re-do of the Wave 1 figure.

I am definitely down for the 18" stuff too, but am hoping to get these in person, rather than shipped. Seems like shipping would be a lot.

I am still hoping we might see this wave show up in force for Black Friday shopping, but I'm not holding my breath. Would be a missed opportunity though, they could sell a lot of Bobas.

Almost forgot to mention the excellent casting last night: Enver Gjokaj from Dollhouse as the erstwhile Pete, and Kirk Acevedo from Fringe as Tank Boy Mitch. Good to see those guys again.

Fred Armisen is a little squirmy but Martinez was money on "TD". I expect at least one casualty from the mid-season finale to show up next week as a surprise guest too.

Too slow, now too fast. I LOVED seeing the tank in the opening scene, because I was waiting on this from the comics. But you're gonna trust the guy to run that thing whose brother you just knifed in the back? Not so sure about that.

So much to talk about in this episode. I knew Martinez was in trouble with all those scripted lines. That's the kiss of death on this show. Glad we got some closure on the other lummox too. (Sounds like he got Tyreesed)

That other group they ran across sure seems to have gotten murdered in a hurry. Weird that it happened so fast, and no screams were heard with them being so close by. They probably won't revisit that but they should.

Phillip is all wrong on the prison thing though. They are not going to fare any better than Rick's group ultimately. Fresh water and the horde on the fences are always going to be issues. They'd be better off knocking off a shopping mall, school, etc. Plus isn't there more than one prison in the state of GA?

All I know is Tara must be loving life because what are the odds of finding another hot available lesbian chick after the apocalypse? She lucked out big time there.

I'll have to check my receipts to see if I can still return the ones I bought previously at Target. If so, game on.
