Fortune smiled on me again today as I was able to track down Captain Phasma at Target. Must have just put out the fresh case, can't beat that!  ;D

Wave 2 complete!

Thanks Jeff! I just ordered the Haunted Crypt and Alien set. I couldn't find any of the single carded B&W Universal Monsters though. Did those not go up yet?

Now that's what I'm talking about!

I liked the B/W time jumps if for no other reason than the juxtaposition of Rick saying Carter would die no matter what to dude getting his face eaten off.

LOL @ Rick asking Carter "do you know who you're talking to?"

I'm more curious about who taught Morgan to Bo Staff than who honked the horn at the end. I'm sure that was the Wolves since otherwise there was no point to putting those scenes with them from last season in the opening crawl. Or maybe it's just a big misdirect.

I think the only problem with the plan was that eventually they would have to stop the Pied Piper thing and they would all just spread out again.

Great to have it back!

I was just lucky enough to pick one of these up off eBay for $32 shipped, which to me was a phenomenal deal. Glad I was able to wait out the craziness...I still remember that day these went up on HTS when I was on vacation. Ugh. Redemption!

Pete, that is awesome! Did you have to watch and phone in the secret code words during an episode?

I'm ready for tomorrow night!

A trip to the crosstown TRU paid off and I was lucky enough to find a lone Eugene on the pegs. Hell yeah!

I'm good now til terminus Carol and bloody Tyreese exclusives come out...

I love getting new figures right before the TV season launches!

The hits (to my wallet) keep coming...picked up 2 Snowtrooper Officers @ TRU this morning.  :)

Went home to cancel my online preorders only to find an email stating they had already shipped. Doh!

Also picked up another Guavian Enforcer at a different Target. Some teenage kid standing in the aisle had Phasma in his hands...ooof. 5 minutes earlier and she would have been mine. I still can't talk about it.  :-[

Aw yeah! TV Series 8 in da house!!  ;D
 
Picked up Rick, Bob, Dale, and Morgan @ TRU over lunch today. No sign of Eugene - I have heard there are case assortments with and without him though so maybe he's more of a "chase" figure at this point.  The other 4 look outstanding though, really the best they have done yet, IMO. Great paint apps, great sculpts.

Also snagged the Deluxe Morgan versus Walker Boxed Set or whatever...$29.99, good stuff in there too.

Great toy day overall today!

Found all of Wave 2 minus Phasma (of course) on the pegs at Target over lunch. Only 1/4 local stores had them...the rest just Wave 1 stragglers.

Really happy to have found these but missing 1 always turns out to be a thorn in my side, especially a figure that is going to be in demand as Phasma. I'm going to have to get lucky with the timing on this one, I can tell.

And I'm going to need multiples of the Enforcer, that is one kick ass figure, no question.

Thanks Jeff! She looks amazing, goofy hat and all. I am so glad to hear they are committed to making more Rebels figures.

I need to go find pics of that Leia prototype now...

I've enjoyed it so far...every season I wonder if this is the year they will decide to kill Ward off once and for all, and that hope keeps me going. Eventually it's gotta happen, dude is going to get another role somewhere or something. At least Flowers is gone!

What was Simmons running from in the other dimension? The first episode it clearly seemed as though she was trying to evade someone or something. Guess we will find out. Glad they did not drag her captivity out over the whole season.

I liked the Inhuman-hunting KreeBeast a lot...one of the cooler things they have featured on the show so far.

Yeah, the Han likeness looks very impressive, seems to be some feeling out there that the hair is not grey enough but I will reserve judgement until I see him up close. Nice to see they revealed something new already.

Zero expectations...anything valuable to be learned will come thirdhand from other sources.

I would like to know when the 2 new Rebels figures (Rex and Inquisitor II/Fifth Brother) will be coming out. Surprise unveiling of the Ghost would be my pie in the sky hope.

Boom! I finally lucked out and was able to preorder two, with free shipping. Very relieved!
