So far, I have been very fortunate and am just missing the Padawan 2-pk. I could use some more Imperial Officers and Red Battle Droids, but am pretty much caught up.
How about you all?
:P
-
I'm missing Chewie Mynock Hunt, Yoda/Chian, Ashla/Jempa, Red Battle Droid, and the new Deluxe Obi-Wan and Jango.
I also lack the following Unleashed figures: Mace Windu, Vader Redux, Leia(really want this one), Luke, Sidious, Obi-Wan, and whatever else is coming out on those groovy new cards.
I hope I find all this stuff before the Clone Wars line debuts and takes up the meager space retail stores have for Star Wars.

I've done fairly well for the most part, with some nice scores at Target, and some helpful local trading buddies like Matthew, Jared, and Jobe - thanks guys! But I am still missing a few, and also need to upgrade a few of my carded figures to something a tad more mint.
Missing both Carded and Loose:
Boba Fett
Missing only Carded:
Anakin - Secret Ceremony
Ashla/Jempa 2-pack
Hoth Han
Mynock Chewie
Even though the delay in acquiring some of these guys is aggravating, I'm not too worried about it. They're coming eventually... They're just all stuck in the back stockrooms somewhere!
-
My list has shrank some over time... I find a figure here and there luckily.
I'm missing...
Lama Su/Clone Youth 2-pack
Aaylya Secura
Ashla/Jempa Youngling 2-pack
Yoda/Youngling 2-pack
Han Hoth Brown Coat
And that's about it right now... I lucked into the final 2 head variation figures last Saturday at the Pennsylvania Collecting Club's summer social which was held right near here at Bob's (Bobafett14 over at Rebelscum) place.
I was expecting to walk away with nothing new because I seemed to have the most new stuff, but a gentleman had each of the head variants just sitting about, so I nabbed the Brown Hair officer and Red Hair Fleet Trooper right away.
Too bad those things aren't shipping en masse to retailers, because the RFT and Imp. Officer are about the only 2 figures I can think of from Saga '03 that would FLY off the shelves if you shipped them in solid cases alone...
Rumor is that TRU's will be getting cleared out again sometime in the near future, so I'm hoping that and the recent Target clear-outs are going to bring in new stuff for me on a regular basis...
I'd like a couple "youngling" packs personally, just to do some custom work with them.
And with stuff still shipping I'm doomed to get a little further behind with figures like Snowtrooper, Jedi Luke, Throne Room Vader, and the Clone Wars items (Which I'm really looking forward to the basic line CW figures).
Hope things change some though.

Due to the lack of figs, I joined kebco's one of every figure club. Everything is pre-ordered for me and I expect a huge shipment soon - Luke, Obi, Sidious unleashed, Clone Wars vehicles, Han Hoth, Chewie Mynock and the items I have on hold: Mace, R2 and Spider Droid.
The only figs I need that are those that weren't available when I signed up: first variant Imperial officer, both variants of the Rebel Fleet Trooper and Tusken Raider. Other than those, I'm caught up.
-
In terms of my carded collection, I’m only missing the red battle droid. But in terms of my loose stuff, I’m still a few 2003 figs down, but that’s because of cash problems, and not that I wouldn’t be able to get them if I had the money.
-
We still haven't seen any 2003 figures actually in the stores around here, but I eventually broke down and ordered SC Anakin, Acklay Obi, Droid Factory Padme, the Tusken Raider, Geonosis Dooku, and the Arena Mace from Kebco awhile back when they were all $4.99. I also have Jedi Luke, Hoth Han, Mynock Chewie, Yoda w/Chian, Jempa/Ashla, Snowtrooper, Unleashed Han, Yoda, and Boba, and the 12" scale Yoda on preorder from Kebco as well. The Targets around here have been cleared out too, and the TRU have been thinned out quite a bit too, so I'm hoping new stuff will start showing up. I missed out on the preorders for Aayla, Carkoon Boba, Barriss, etc., so I'm hoping to find those (or anything else new) :).
-
Well it's easier to say what I have found rather than what 2003 product I have.
I have seen:
Obi-Wan(Acklay), Darth Tyranus (Geo), Mace Windu, Blonde Imp Officer, Red Battle Droid, and Ashla/Jempa. That is it so far for 3 3/4 figs.

-
Deluxe Obi-Wan
-
THe only things I'm missing I think are the deluxe figures Obi Wan, Jango Fett, and the Spider droid. I'm not to worried about getting them though.
-
Most notably? The Anakin and Count Dooku speederbikes
-
I'm missing
Han Hoth
Chewie Mynot
Jedi Padawans
Yoda with Padawan
Red Battle Droid
Red Hair Rebel
Spider Droid
Super Battle Droid Builder
And anything after that!
-
still missing about 10 figs all together and the deluxe Clonetrooper and the Acklay,but half of the ones i need are still on the pegs the other half i've only seen on damaged cards. also with Origins next week i kinda need all the money i can gather up for this event.
-
I really don't even want to reply to this topic. >:( >:( >:( >:(I had lived in Long Island and made toy runs to every store in the area and in in NYC when I went. :( I have yet to find my first 2003 figure and no one I talked to in New York (on Long Island) had any luck either. :o Now that I've moved back to St. Louis, I found the Imperial 4-pack at TRU, so I finally have my FIRST 2003 figures. However, according to people here, the 2003 figures, though hard to find, have been shipping, so I might not find the figures shipped earlier in the year. I had hoped that they would hit LI before I left, thinking that all cases would hit, starting with the first from 2003....NO SUCH LUCK! So, hopefully things will start shipping again and I can get caught up. My fear is that these figures will turn out to be like the final waves of Ep I (like holo sidieous, Sio Bibble, etc).
Hope all of you are doing much better... it seems like it according to the posts! :( :( :(

Maybe they’re all cheating and buying online ;D? That’s what we have to do in the UK.

Well, thanks to Matt who is hooking me up with 2 of the newer figs, I will only be missing the following:
1 version each of the RFT and IO variants
Tusken Raider
Lama Su
Ayala
Chewbacca
Yoda & Chian
Ashla & Jempa
and all 3 of the Action Fleet ships
I have been lucky enough to find all the Deluxe figs at retail as well as both speeder bikes and all but one of the 12" so far. But this only because I check stores a lot. The stuff disappears so quickly you almost need to if you want any of it.
-
I thought you got those action fleet from Adam ??? Guess not. Oh well. Good luck.
-
Ah hell, I forgot about stuff like the deluxe...
I do need the Spider Droid, SBD Builder, the 2 Speederbikes, and the Kamino Deluxe figures too...
Sheesh. :(
-
03 Han and Chewie. If anyone has any extra MOMC I'd swap for Aayla and Barriss. LMK.
Fish-
-
obi-dad... I'm in the same boat as you. The only new things I've been able to find so far this year is a Red Battle Droid, two Unleashed figures, and the Imperial 4-pack (those being in the Chicagoland area). I did find a few other newer '03 figures when I was down at my in-laws in Florida, but there really hasn't been diddly squat here though. VERY FRUSTRATING!!!

Question for those missing several figures still:
Do you rely solely on retail? Do you ever buy online?
:P

Yeah, I buy online. It's the ONLY way to get new figures these days.

I still need a Brown Coat Han and the rest I am getting with my Wave 15 Case from Newforce. They should be here within a month though since the figures have started hitting retail
I passed on the speeders because the figures suckiddidlyucked.
-
I wanted to rely on retail, and in the past I have pretty much been able to, but we still don't have any 2003 figures around here, so I have pre-ordered a number of this year's offerings through Kebco (Hoth Han, Mynock Chewie, Jedi Luke, Jedi Vader, Snowtrooper, Yoda, Younglings, Unleashed, etc.) I think many of us have little choice but to go online right now, but maybe things will improve in the next month or two. Plus, many online prices have gotten better....especially if you can do it case wise like Newforce. I personally don't have anyone around here to really split up cases with, so that's why I went with Kebco for now. Good luck to everyone in their searches...hopefully everyone will be able to get what they are looking for.
-
well in ky i still need
chewie myknock hunt
yoda and padawan
the two padawans
and everything pass that like luke vader wat and stuff like that
-
I have the wave13 case preordered at newforce, so that will take care of a good amount of figures. Here's what I'm missing...
*Boba Fett (Carkoon)
*Hoth Han
*Imperial Officer head variants
*Rebel Trooper head variants
*Chewie (Mynock Hunt)
I haven't found anything (other than the Imperial 4-pack) at retail since last year. I'm really getting discouraged by this drought. I haven't had this much trouble with figures in all my years of collecting.
