Sounds like Target is the place to buy.

Yep.

So with the news the other day that the exclusive Target content is actually download-only, and not on-disc, I think I'm just gonna buy the standard Blu-Ray at whatever place has it the cheapest:

(Slipcover & keepcase)

I'm a sucker for any packaging that features the original theatrical poster. I could be wrong, but I think this is the first time any official SW DVD or Blu-Ray release has used a theatrical poster for cover art. Would have gone with the Steelbook at Best Buy if it had this art instead of the stupid closeups of Kylo and Phasma.

That looks awesome.

The Black Series 3.75" / Re: Walmart Black Series 3.75" Wave 4

Excited that we are getting more of these. Honestly, prior to getting the earlier waves, I started to think that having all 5 POA wasn't so bad. After seeing the Force Awakens characters, it reminded me of what Hasbro is capable of. I like the character choices, but agree that Leia could have been 5 POA. Happy to have the Han, but hope we get the regular version in this form soon too. Still wish they weren't WalMart exclusives, I wouldn't have this line if not for help from Pete_Fett.

I know even what you just mean by wishing the Black Series figures weren't only WalMart exclusives. The collectors like us would soon have more luck with the figures.

I'm still wondering when we'll just get a glimpse of only the Luke Skywalker figure. Still it's nice that we have an update on figure from The Force Awakens.

Pulled the trigger on the Sandcrawler and Slave 1 as a birthday present to myself. Hoping to still convince my wife that the Ewok Village and UCS TIE Fighter would make great gifts from her and the boys! Fingers crossed...

The Ewok Village is an amazing set... a great display piece AND playset, which is kind of a rarity in sets that large.

I mainly bought only the Ewok Village for the minifigures, but it is now really just an awesome set nonetheless. The set has many great features too.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Captain America (Movie & Sequels)

Seems like the number one sort of highlight from the new trailer for Captain America: Civil War is the appearance by Spider-Man.

Hey, just got the soundtrack for the Force Awakens. Why isnt the song that the band is playing, at Maz's on there? Its all the orchestral tracks, just not that one.

I have heard the soundtrack just so many times.

I bought the recent LEGO X-Wing and my daughter and I built it tonight. It was really a lot of fun. The only other LEGO ship I have is Vader's TIE, so I thought it would be fun to set up a Trench Run display.

It's a pretty cool set, you can open the S-foils into the classic attack position by rotating a knob on the back. I just wish it came with a stand so I could display it that way.

It also includes Luke/R2 and Jek/R5 and extra pieces so you can display it as Red 5 or Red 6.

But I'm concerned I may have opened a large can of worms because I want more!
