Found the fabled Captain Rex at ROSS deal for $2.99!

Still bummed I missed the red A-Wings but this eases the sting a little.

Find an extra Rex, I’d take it.

I’ve never seen it in stores.  But that said, a local found one for me!

Was surprised to see the last wave on the pegs at Target again today. I picked up two more battle droids and noticed they did not ring up under the 1922 DPCI number anymore, but their own unique code. That’s new. Previously it would show that individual DPCI when you scanned it at the price checker, but not at the actual register. At least around here.

Guess they figured out where all these Jyns and Cassians were coming from!

I picked up another 6" Range Trooper at Walmart yesterday.  All of the 6" TBS figures were marked down to $14.97, so I took the plunge.  I was also surprised to see that figures like Beckett and Rio Durant since some people in some of the Black Series facebook groups are trying hard to find them.

Found a lone Han Solo in Mimban Mudtrooper attire the other day at Target...  Cool figure!

Spotted Archive Wave 2 at Target tonight. Ended up passing on all of them. I have the original Yoda and Scout Trooper/Speeder Bike, and also SH Figuarts Maul and Anakin. It was really hard passing on the Maul, but I'm trying to cut back on toy purchases

Found evil 3PO (0-0-0?) at GameStop last night. Picked it up and held it for a few minutes and then decided to put it back. I don't think ive ever done that before with a brand new figure. Guess it's a combination of not wanting to pay the $3 GameStop markup and not really caring about the character at all. I may end up getting him later, but I wasn't feeling it yesterday.

I saw GameStop is running a BOGOHO sale on action figures, and I actually managed to find a store with 2 new figures still in stock, so I picked up Ezra and 0-0-0. Will probably return the droid and just keep the cheap Ezra, which is all I really wanted. Weird that Choppers release date keeps getting pushed back on their website.

I saw a Walgreens Spirit Obi-Wan figure at ROSS yesterday for $9.99. The “compare at” price was $30 so I don’t know wtf they got that. Pass for me.

Went ahead and bought Chopper off Hasbro Pulse. Might as well take advantage of the free premium shipping, I figured. Thought about the Wave 2 archive figures but they are still listed as preorders.

I had preordered the Chopper and Ezra figures from Entertainment Earth which were then backordered for a while.  On Wednesday, I got a message from EE saying that the order was cancelled as the manufacturer had unexpectedly run out of stock of those figures for some reason. Frustrated a little, I ordered an Ezra and Chopper figure off eBay, where there seemed to be plenty of the figures for under $25 (which I consider reasonable).  Then while on a work-related road trip on Thursday, I made a quick stop by a Target store and found two Chopper figures!

Picked up Padme, Dryden Vos, Mimban Han and another Death Star Trooper for $7 each at Walmart. Apparently only a select few stores around here are dropping that low but I will keep an eye on this for sure.

I found the complete Wave 2 of the Black Series Archive figures at a local Walmart yesterday for the standard $20 price. I had already ordered and received this wave from Entertainment Earth a month ago, but picked up an extra Darth Maul and Anakin figure to open...  I remember passing up the original Darth Maul figure back in 2013 for some reason and never found the original Anakin figure, so it was nice to finally add those to my collection  :)
