If it wasn't for a new Super Target that opened across town, I would have seen little to none of the Saga Legends so far this year.  TRU has also recently gotten them in.  Otherwise, aside from Wave 4 and the latest wave of Comic Packs, I think I've seen every figure at least once.  I hadn't seen the McChewie at all, but saw a couple at TRU a week or so ago.

Overall though, retail has been pretty slow this year around here.  I think as far as the basic line goes, I've gotten my figures online well before they ever showed up here.  I preordered the regular TAC waves knowing that I wouldn't be able to "hunt" as much now with the new baby, and I'm glad I did.  The credit card bills look worse this way, but its been more reliable than the stores have and saves me the stress from not getting out to check the stores as often as I'd like to.

As a side note to this topic - its going to be September here, and our local WM still hasn't seen a single basic TAC figure on their pegs.  They've had the coin albums (still do actually), the VTSC (gone quickly), and some of the comic packs -but otherwise its just been a sea of old TSC figures.  And its September here shortly - crazy.  At least its allowed me to basically cut out going there, until those darn exclusives (comic packs/Rebo band) start showing up.

in a regular store chain, all of wave 4, i have not seen thus far.  Seen all of SL1, and 2 so far cept the red BDs.  Not seen the big Tie Interceptor.   At a comic shop a few weeks ago, I saw some of wave 4 at ridiculous prices.

Due to case assortments we have been getting over in the UK - the McChewie is peg warming in my local stores.

The Jawa and Droid is proving to be very difficult to track down. Only seen one and bought it straight away.

Oh...sorry.  :-[

I am yet to see Saesee's starfighter. I saw it at TRU once, but I didn't want to spend an extra five dollars plus tax because I figured I was bound to see it again somewhere cheaper.
That was two months ago...  :(

Post by: starwax137 on September 2, 2007, 03:27 PM
I've seen all of waves 1-3 except McChewie. (And I got him in a trade.) SL is pretty much nonexistant around here, due to the pegs being clogged with TSC, I'm sure. I don't really think there's anything else out I haven't seen though as far as all the sublines and such go.

I just saw two of Saesee's starfighters at Wal-Mart this morning!  So you may still have a chance.

You haven't seen him yet? He's a terrible pegwarmer in my area!  :P
Title: Re: 30AC You Still Haven't Seen At Retail
Post by: Nicklab on September 7, 2007, 12:50 AM
So far?  The only things that I still haven't seen are the TRU exclusive Y-Wing and 181st TIE Interceptor.  I haven't seen Saga Legends wave 3 yet, either.  As for 30AC wave 5, they really haven't hit mass retail so I'm not including that on the list.
Title: Re: 30AC You Still Haven't Seen At Retail
Post by: JangoTat on September 8, 2007, 11:03 PM
found a couple new things so time to make a new list.

Jawa
Stormtrooper (although i have 2 they were given to me so i still have not actually seen them at retail)
Shocktrooper
Ep 2 and 3 clones
Battledroids 2 pack

Wave 4 still has not hit Canada so i wont count that.

Post by: Brian on October 31, 2007, 12:51 PM
Although I know with the wave dump we're having right now (4, 5, 6, 7 and Legends) different areas are seeing different things right now.  Which figures, aside from the obvious McQuarries or exclusives, have been the toughest to find this year overall?  It seems like HTS has done a decent job stocking some things, and now some other waves are starting to make their way to retail (or online orders) as well.  Which figures do you think will be the toughest finds for 2007, the way things are looking so far?
Title: Re: 30AC You Still Haven't Seen At Retail
Post by: Rob on October 31, 2007, 12:54 PM
With two recent sightings of McFett - I've now seen them all.

For a while I thought McFett was going to be the first figure since Admiral Motti that I didn't see in stores.
Title: Re: 30AC You Still Haven't Seen At Retail
Post by: Muftak on October 31, 2007, 02:17 PM
I have not been actively searching this year, just looking when I am out, and I have seen every 30AC figure on the shelf (thru wave 6) with the exception of the McQuarrie Starkiller.

Everything else I have seen on more than one occasion even, with the exception of the McSnowy and Darths Revan and Malak. This includes UGHs. Things have definitely been out there in my area, thanks mostly to the huge pileup last month on waves 5 and 6 at WalMart.

Here are the figures I have not seen on a peg at retail yet.  This is by far the worst year yet for finding figures (at retail).  Back in ROTS days, they only 2 I never found were Gree and Bly, and I think I found all but the walmart wave (I didn't even look) from last year's collection.  I have been lucky and managed to snag most of the figures I have been hunting for on HTS.com

McQuarrie Signature Series: Concept Stormtrooper
McQuarrie Signature Series: Concept Boba Fett
Jawa & LIN Droid (Tatooine Scavenger)
McQuarrie Signature Series: Concept Chewbacca (NON-UGH)
CZ-4 (CZ-Series Droid)
McQuarrie Signature Series: Concept Darth Vader
Hermi Odle (Baragwin)
C-3PO & Salacious Crumb (Jabba's Servants)
Roron Corobb (Jedi Knight)
Yoda & Kybuck (Jedi Master)
Anakin Skywalker (Jedi Knight)
Darth Revan (Sith Lord)
Darth Malak (Sith Lord)
Pre-Cyborg Grievous (Kaleesh Warlord Qymaen jai Sheelal)
McQuarrie Signature Series: Concept Starkiller Hero
McQuarrie Signature Series: Concept Snowtrooper

And the omission of wave 7 does not mean I have found it.  I just know it will be weeks before it may begin to show up around the Seattle area.

Although some of them have been only briefly, I think I have seen every figure through Wave 7 at least once.  I'm hoping these last two waves won't be too tough to find.  I had been ordering sets online from BBTS, but with the shipping extravaganza of the TAC waves (along with the EE packs and Marvel stuff), the credit card bills have been pretty high the last few months (at least for us and our budget).  With that happening, I decided to cancel everything else I had preordered, and hope to find it at retail.  There are some figures I could live without in the "repaint wave", but I really hope I can find all of the AOTC wave.  I'll be keeping a close watch on HTS, that's for sure.

Still waves 6,7,7.5,8. Although I have been able to get some (comic shops and friends going to the states) I am still missing 9 figures and waiting for goldenagetoys to ship out my wave 8 box. Overall it was a bad idea trying to finish this coin album lol.
Title: Re: 30AC You Still Haven't Seen At Retail
Post by: Marshallmario on January 31, 2008, 04:33 PM
  wave 8 was a huge problem around Madison, WI. Today I bought 2 McClam troopers off e-bay. He was the only Mc. I never saw around here. I must have seen a min. of 10 each of every other Mc. figure at various times on the pegs. I don't think wave 8 with the coins is going to re show up. Reports of Wave 1 now showing up convinced me to complete 2007 while I still could. Paid 10.00 each so only time will tell if I panicked or not?

Since I decided late to get most of the McQuarries, I missed the first time most of the waves came out.  But I have a local K-Mart that has only gone up to wave 5 so far, so I may catch their first release of it.  WM doesn't look to be getting any more of ther recent waves that X-Mas cleared out.

If you need some McQ's, let me know Greg.

As for me...  I've never seen:

-Red Naboo Dude
-Holographic Vader
-Pax Bonkik
-R2-B1 (though someone got me one)
-McQuarrie Concept Rebel Trooper

So I'm getting a little desperate on those figures, especially since I wanted 2 of Pax, 2 of the Naboo dude, and I need 2 McQuarrie Concept Rebel Troopers (a buddy got me one, I need 2 more though).

Not a good thing at the moment too because of coins.  ::)

Hey Jesse, I'll keep an eye out for those figures for you. My Target has been restocking 7.5 a lot recently, and I'm still loking for Holo Vader, Naboo Soldier and a couple more Rebel Troopers but I'll be sure to keep you in mind if I find duplicates. I seem to have really good luck after school, so chances are I'll find something you need for you.
