I found the Morak Boba Fett in a store this morning (HBD to me!), and I just got a shipping notification from Target for Axe Woves.

My Walmart order for the Stormtrooper with E-WEB is still in limbo.  Not sure if I'm ever going to see that one.  And my orders for the Original 96 Walmart exclusives still say that they're going to ship next week.  I'm not going to hold my breath over that.

Thanks guys!  More new stuff incoming.  All of these preorders finally getting fulfilled means a lot of boxes are heading to the recycling bin.  I think I've got at least 2 preorders that should be arriving today, and several more over the next 3 or 4 days.

FMW(allet)

$537 - The Ghost
$247 - Throne Room
$141 - Mando N-1

$925 in September so far...  and good odds that the TM Speeder Bike, DLX Sabine, and ROTJ Jabba Goons 4-Pack will all hit my wallet this month too.  ::)

OMFG...

The timing on this is just brutal.  Is Hasbro timing all of this so bolster their Q3 numbers for investors?

Apparently everything came on the same boat.

$141 - Mando N-1

$1100 in September so far...  DLX Sabine still possible, but maybe not likely at this point.

Aside from the purchases from HasbroPulse and Amazon, I found Obi-Wan (w/ Lola) at Ross for $3.99. I haven't found any TVC or Black Series there in years so I bought it for the heck of it.

I’m in that boat minus the N-1, but I bought two throne rooms and preordered two Ghosts.  I’m thinking about canceling that second ghost and selling that second throne room instead of using it for BOBF.

I don't want to do the math!

2 x Ghosts
1 x Throne Roon
2 x ROTJ Jabba's Goons 4-packs
1 x TM Speeder Bike

...and
1 x TBS Starkiller & Stormtroopers

My N-1 order seems to be up in the air with Hasbro Pulse.  And there's no sign yet of the other 2 x Speeder bikes from The Mandalorian that I ordered from Amazon.

I took a trip to the only Ollie's that I know of within about 40 miles.  And I was able to score a few TVC R2-D2's for $3.99 each.  But OMG - the number of OWK Retro Collection figures there was stunning.

My closest Ollie's would be a 250 trip to Iowa City.  Maybe I can get a few of the MN dudes to do an all-day, 12 hour 500+ mile  road trip with me to go do some bargain shopping.

...and find nothing... but you'd definitely have the memories.

Getting a lot of notices from Pulse this week that things are going to be shipped.
