Heh, I saw my first Vintage figures, Luke and Obi-Wan, at a Walgreens tonight.

My Legacy Pack with Vader also arrived from Amazon today!

I grabbed another Death Trooper and Scarif Squad Leader from Target for $10 each. Up to 16 Death Troopers now, for no apparent reason.   :D

Found Luke, Obi-Wan and Leia at TRU today and grabbed the Leia for the new headsculpt.

Also got another Legacy Pack since I thought it was the variant Vader, but no, now I have 2 Black Eye Vaders. Going to be returning that one tomorrow.

Umm, holy crap. I was just able to order a Revan from HTS

You have to add it to your cart from the search results page since there's no "Add To Cart" on the individual product page

Nice score!  I get an "insufficient inventory" note when I try to add this or others from the wave.   :-[

I got one too. That crappy site was finally good for something.

All our Targets got solid cases of Vintage Leia this week. It's like an epidemic out there. Of all the figures to jam the pegs...

Found a full case of Vintage 6" Wave Two at TRU this morning...got there right when they opened.  :)

Still no shipping notice on my online order, so better safe than sorry, I figured. Plus I wants lots of Jawas and Sandpeople anyway.

I confess though, these look so nice I am finding it really hard to open any of them, even duplicates.

Are there full cases of Leias shipping to Target or something? I went to pick up Logan last night and they had 12 Leias in the 40th anniversary endcap. The only other 6 inch figure they had in stock was the AT-ACT Pilot which was in the regular Star Wars aisle. I highly doubt the store got 6 cases of Wave 1 and sold everything BUT Leia considering I see Lukes and Obi-Wans sitting at every other store.

I would say "Yes" to full case of Leia.  I found five at my Target and no other 40th figure.  Walmart had one each of Luke, Ben and Leia.

Yeah, I've seen similar situations at stores near me, especially at the GameStop near my office and a ThinkGeek store by my home.   I wonder if it's some sort of response to Carrie Fisher's passing? 

In other news, more evidence of wave 2 turning up at TRU.  I picked up a Jawa, but the banged up card it was on is probably the only reason it got left behind.  I get the feeling the Death Squad Commander and Stormtroopers are going to be impossible to find.

Just managed to snag a Lando and Sand Person on Amazon for $21.99 each. They had the ERG but it wouldn't let me add it to my cart, then when it finally did, it was being sold by a 3rd party.

I managed to get one of the ERG's from Amazon.  I just got one in the case I bought, and this one makes two for me.  That's the extent of army building in the 6" Black Series!

But I ran into a similar situation to you, Diddly.  I've been trying to pick up at extra 6" 40AC Stormtrooper.  Amazon will list them, but I haven't been able to get all the way through checkout with that figure before they're gone, and the 3rd party sellers are the only options.
