I hit a nearby Target right at opening this morning and was able to pick up 2 more FO Stormtroopers and went ahead and got another Kylo to use the $10 off coupon. (Will return the one I got last night)

I did see Poe's X-Wing there, which was totally MIA last night, so that was cool. No sign of the TIE Fighter, big or little. Still no Mission Series.

I plan to hit K-Mart at lunch today because that's the only place I've even seen tags for the 2-packs. Worth a shot, every place else has been a bust so far.

Ugh....long night. Target was a big letdown. Couldn't find enough product to use either coupon. And I was one of the first in line! They had everything split in two sections and all mine had that I wanted was the Kanan scout Bomber and a lone 6" Kylo Ren. Better than nothing though.

Next stop was Walmart and got Finn, Rey, and Chewie. Finally hit TRU after that and they were totally wiped out. 

I stopped at two more Walmarts on the way home and found 2 6" Stormtroopers, so I did end up managing to complete the wave. Good way to top off the night.

Never saw any sign of the big TIE or the Mission Series 2-packs...bummed about that.

Fun to hang out with friends but not nearly as much variety as I expected to see. And TRU and Target woefully under stocked for the demand.

Off to bed!

I saw Rey's speeder at Walmart on the way home from work, and a smattering of less interesting stuff, but I didn't even bother to try checking out. No more snacking before the feast!

This just in from New Zealand...where MM is in full swing right now:

NO SA figures

NO surprise SW toys that have not already been leaked in the past few weeks

NO indication what the TRU exclusive is exactly, still (seriously, are we really gonna have to wait til 12:01am to know what this thing is?)

Hopefully we get better news in the hours to come from other countries. UK in particular should be a good indicator.

If you show the Cook and the Hitchhiker, you have to make the Cook and Hitchhiker. 

I'll be getting this for sure.

Let's go Krogering! 

I hit the mother lode last night at the grocery store of all places. I guess Kroger don't play that Walmart nonsense with cockblocking you at the register.

Picked up everything they had in 3&3/4" scale. (There was no 6" stuff sadly) They seemed to be complete cases, I ended up with:

2x Assault Walker w/Stormtrooper Sergeant
2x Elite Speeder Bike w/Stormtrooper (Spec Forces)
8x Armor Series figures
12x Basic Figures

The Class I stuff was $19.99, the Armor guys $12.99 and the basic figures were $7.99. The best part was though, that they had a Buy 2 Get 1 Free sale going on for everything, even the vehicles. I had to get a manager to help apply them at the register, which was a bit of a hassle, but they had absolutely no qualms about selling them to me. I even ended up getting 3 of the basic figures for free because of some snafu.

All told I ended up with $279.76 (plus tax) worth of toys for $177.86 (plus tax). Not a bad night's work.

The nutty thing is - I don't even want any of this stuff. Literally. I got them for 2 friends I am planning on meeting up with for MM. Figured I would save them some work.

I plan to go out hunting for the 6" guys today at Walmart and K-Mart. Anything I can grab before tomorrow night would be a plus.

 This is the cobbled together list as per JTA: (I removed most of the annoying editorial comments)   

1. Luke Skywalker (Stormtrooper Disguise – Trash Compactor styled)
2. Han Solo (Stormtrooper Disguise – Trash Compactor styled)
3. Chewbacca (Death Star Prisoner)
4. Stormtrooper (with dent in helmet from hitting blast door)
5. R2-D2
6. Obi-Wan Kenobi
7. Princess Leia Organa (Ewok Gown)
8. 2-1B (Episode V version)
9. EV-9D9
10. Funeral Pyre Darth Vader
11. Princess Leia Organa (Yavin Ceremony)

Nice to finally get a look at Atsy...the other guy is interesting.

Wonder if this discovery suggests that we could see a second wave of 6" guys now too...
