I got most of wave 5 over the weekend, aside from Pons Limbic and the Spacetrooper. This is a fucking awesome wave. Any of you OT semi-collectors would probably like these figures. I especially love Wioslea and Obi-Wan.

Haven't seen them yet, but I scored Tunnel Rat vs Shredder Storm Shadow yesterday.

And found the Shockwaveblast vs Resolute Destro to go with it today.

Yes, it was a nice wave. I think I'm done until the Yavin Battlepack and ESB wave hit in a couple months. There aren't even any upcoming McFarlane hockey figures want, so now is probably the time to go and get a few of those I missed.

Got the single carded Tripwire figure. Now I might open my comic 2-pack w/ Tripwire & Cobra Commander.

I got all three SW Walmart exclusive comic packs the other night. The pilots are really cool. The Ewoks are nice - two are retools of Graak and one is a repaint of Romba - but the hoods are a little garish and comic-like (but I think they could pass in a regular diorama). The stormtrooper helmet that comes in the set is fucking huge, and the armor looks to be the clone armor from the TAC clone in the red jumpsuit. Janek Sunber is pretty good but his outfit is really green instead of gray. I fucking love the Amanin though; he's a lot bigger than the POTJ Amanaman. All told it cost me $42 even which was kind of surprising.

I'm the only person on Earth, apparently, who hasn't seen those sets or the ANH wave of Saga figures.

I started to get three sets of Robot Heroes at Big Lots (the Rumble/Arcee wave), until I found one with a price tag and noticed they were $7.50. What the fuck? That's almost two dollars more than Target! I thought the entire point of Big Lots was to get deals on overruns and closeouts.

No, I havent seen them either.

The Rebel Pilot Evolutions pack I ordered from Walmart arrived today. The box it came in was huge. Took me a bit to figure out how to hook the hoses up to Ten Numb.

I got mine also. Havent opened it yet though. Just got home.

I got the SSC Stormie (last week). Ordered it at SDCC 08 and finally got it. It is beautiful.

Wow, I thought that was a person in a costume at first. That looks great.

Thanks for the heads up on that. I got mine the other day. It only took about 2-3 days total.

Nice stuff.

I picked up two Thor-Axine cars earlier in the week. I already have one. Would I be mistaken that two guys named vyn and mabs would be interested?

No problem Slick. Good deals need to be passed along.

I also finally found wave 5 of TLC.

I picked up Han/Luke Stormie
