Needed a fix so I picked the rest of the bounty hunter wave at Suncoast.  I can't wait to go bankrupt on Saturday.   ;D

I finally got a monster package yesterday, and caught up with all my Series 2 & 3 Bust-ups, including the various variants.  So now it's just on to waiting for the next series, and all those bull**** variants that come with the comics and such.  I still ain't buyin' those things, unless I find the Bust-up by itself, and for close to the regular $5 price tag.  I'm definitely not dropping the extra $20-25 on some comic books that I'll never touch...

Thats pretty reasonable.  The mag is $14.99 all by itself, so after that, you got
your YODA bust-up for $5, and the 'Copper' Chewie for free. ;)

p.s. the ISBN for this badboy at Borders is : ISBN # 1-59617-030-1

Happy Harvesting...

Han shot FIRST. Luke threw TWICE. And it was THX-1138 who wasn't at his post on the big screen back in '77. And I first learned that Vader was Luke's dad in the cinemas at the Tampa Bay Mall in 1980.

Anybody has a spare cola Chewie, I'm interested :P

Found a neat idea on ebay, check these out, they're customs (obviously):

Luke Stormtrooper

Han Stormtrooper

All you have to do is drill a hole in the Stormtrooper's head, not to hard.  I'm still working on how I'm going to do my blackhole custom.   Meaning what shade of black should they be.   :P

This might be something worth trying myself.  I've got 12 Stormtroopers, so I could certainly afford to sacrifica a couple.   :)

Scored the Clone Wars set the other day, and the Crimson Empire set  yesterday.  Can't wait to see what the holo Emporer looks like out of the box.

Another absolute bull**** variant/chase on the way, as reported by GH:  The see-through (amber?) Chewbacca.  This is getting completely and totally stupid.  Basically, GG apparently plans to rehash practically every one of it's bust-ups into a spirit/holo/GITD/see-through/silver/black variant.  Why in God's name am I collecting this crap, just to stay complete?!?   >:(

Sounds like it's exclusive to some Dark Horse comic at Borders bookstores, or some such nonsense...  Whatever.

This is the Clone Wars Trade Paperback that's available exclusively at Borders bookstores.  It includes the amber Chewbacca and a regular Yoda.

Just thought i'd ask in here as well as the trading thread
Anyone got a spare sidious and royal guard they want to let go off??
please lemme know

The problem with America is stupidity I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself
