Target had him at 50% off today too, along with Ahsoka, the Ferrrix Trooper and Shoretrooper. I bought one each of those. If the troopers hit 70% off I am cleaning them out

Nice, Rob. I love those goofy guys. I am happy to have completed a MOC collection of those before prices went crazy. I’d still like to get some of the custom unreleased ones though. And I wish they’d release a proper Blu Ray of all those Ewoks episodes!

Received Endor Leia and Skiff Guard Lando ROTJ carded figures yesterday from Amazon. Endor Han is out for delivery today.
I got a shipping notice for the Scout Trooper, but he didn’t show up, then I got an email saying he was delayed, then I got an email saying it could not be delivered and they were canceling my order. WTF??
No word on Wicket, which figures because that was the only one I actually cared about in this wave…

Finally got the new Gaming Greats Battle Droid from GameStop.
Preordered the new Clone Trooper Jesse figure from Walmart earlier today after a few hours of Checkout errors.

I got one of those emails a few weeks ago about the new Battle Droid, but he never actually showed up and now I have no proof he ever even shipped.

Lots of Legends stuff hitting Clearance at Target right now, I picked up Classic Loki and He Who Remains for $12.49 each and She Hulk for $6.89. Def gets me off the fence for stuff I might have passed on otherwise.

TV-9D9 / Re: The Mandalorian - Season 3 (SPOILERS possible)
« on: March 2, 2023, 10:06 PM »
Mostly loved it, from Emo Bo Katan to Sigmund &the Sea Monster Pirate Captain…
The only thing that struck me as contrived was the stuff with IG-11…dude, just buy a new droid. Especially after he woke up and immediately tried to kill Grogu. That should have put that idea to rest then and there.
I loved seeing the Purgills too…

Well, it was awesome to see the Zillo beast again, but I didn’t care for Dr. Hemlock. Don’t really see how cloning Zillo beasts is relevant to anything, but ok. I agree it has been sort of all over the place, but mostly enjoyable. Hope they have some kind of ending planned out at this point and aren’t just making it up as they go anymore.

Whew, this is definitely a low point in the history of the line. The price, character selection etc is super underwhelming. Not only am I not buying this at full price, I went back and canceled my preorder for the other Carbonized 2-pack too, because it’s just gotten too crazy.
No intentions of buying either of those at full price, gonna hold out for a steep discount. There almost nothing that’s worth buying at the retail price anymore, except for maybe some exclusives.
It occurred to me today that this is exactly the same kind of crap they pulled at the end of the Clone Wars line, lazy repaints, repacks, halfassed inaccurate designs, etc. Not saying the writing is on the wall for the Black Series, but they’re sure treating it that way.

I’ll start with the unreleased Clone Wars figures that were rumored before the line ended prematurely:
1) PONG KRELL
2) RAKO HARDEEN
3) SPIDER MAUL
4) SHADOW MAGNA GUARD
5) SHOCK TROOPER
6) TACTICAL DROID KRAKEN
Most of those are likely tooled up already someplace, in one stage at least.
Ones I WISH we could get from the Clone Wars:
7) ADMIRAL TRENCH
SISTER
9) BROTHER
10) FATHER
11) SUGI
12) LATTS RAZI
13) UMBARAN SOLDIER
14) PYKE
15) ZIRO THE HUTT
And finally from REBELS:
16) GOVERNOR PRYCE
17) EIGHTH BROTHER
18) AP-5
19) SAW GERRERA
20) AHSOKA TANO
1) PONG KRELL

Did you get an email that had tracking or did it show it had shipped in your actual GS account?
I have received two emails and four notifications from the GS app that mine shipped but nothing that actually shows me details that it shipped?
Funny you should ask that, I got a shipping notice earlier in the week with the original order # but no tracking info. When I looked the order up it the item just showed as Awaiting Availability or something like that. So yeah, same deal as you sounds like. I hope that is not how they are handling these from now on though, I like being able to track my stuff.
I just got another of those emails last night too, probably for the Battle Droid, so I guess it will just show up out of the blue one day soon…
