    What’s everyone’s favorite figure of the year so far? Because I can’t stop looking at Mandalorian on my shelf. Even without posing, just standing there it looks so good.
    So I’m going to pick Mandalorian as my favorite of the year tentatively. I’m loving my SHF Ep III Anakin, but that didn’t release this year afaik.

    When I get Fox, he might be up there too

    Apparently they are. I did go to Walmart and found the big stand they were supposed to be on, but they were all gone. All they had left were the gold two pack figures. It's actually kind of incredible the Walmart near me gets any exclusives at all. Normally they just skip them.

    Edit: Though my mission wasn't a total loss. I went out for C3PO, Botbots series 4, ghost Yopda, and Jedi Luke, and came back with C3PO. One out of three ain't bad.

    Yep, it's definitely the Mandalorian.

    If I could, I would buy every single one on the planet, but I can't.

    My mom was asking me yesterday about other merchandise for the Mandalorian other than the Black Series figures. So far I told her there is only the figures and the Lego set. Her asking me that, I think I know what she is up to.

    Saw Yoda but, no @ $20.


    The hell are these stands? They new? I only have Vader and a couple of Stormtroopers.

    Something is wrong with my camera. It wont fucking focus.

    Haha, we're very different people as I'd buy Yoda at $20. Yeah the stands aren't great. They started showing up somewhat recently. I can't remember who had one first but I know the Jumptrooper had one. And by the looks of it, you and I have the same phone. Mine won't focus unless I promise my soul to satan.

    Definitely a Mandalorian...SHF Boba Fett! That’s the figure of all 6” figures for my collection if I could only have one.

    I'm gonna have to do some thinking on this one, but the "winners pool" of Black Series figures so far includes:

    Hondo Ohnaka (the sole reason I bought the set at Disneyland)
    Chopper
    Mandalorian
    Clone Commander Obi-Wan
    Stormtrooper Luke
    Sith Trooper (Carbonized)
    BT-1
    Mace Windu
    General Grievous

    Galaxy Of Adventures Luke, Vader, Chewie & Kylo Ren are also well-designed, really fun figures that I find myself constantly fiddling around with.

    As for imports, I'll have to wait until I get my SHF Rey, Kylo & Sith Trooper at the end of the month (and hopefully Ep.VI Vader,) but Movie Realization Kylo's looking pretty unstoppable.

    Did an in store pickup from target.com for the C-3PO and Babu Frik. also stopped by Gamestop to pre order the two new exclusive figures. I ended up grabbing a Vice Admiral Holdo on clearance for $8. At Walmart there was no sign of Luke or Yoda, but I did grab the vintage collection Jabba's palace.

    According to Brickseek 4 Walmart’s have the ghost Yoda and maybe the Jedi Luke. Though when I get to said Walmart they are nowhere to be found. I was at one Walmart and had a lady in toys look up the Sku number. They were in stock but couldn’t find them. Our Walmart’s evidently are in no hurry to put this freakin shipper.

    It's been posted before but it's good to have a reminder. And I haven't seen the in box photos before. Nice. Got a Revan and two Battledroids myself.

    Luckily, Yoda always hangs around so, i might get to grab it on clearance. Saw the whole last Archive wave with him but, I didnt know they had just marked it down to $11. Shoulda went right back.

    Cool, good to know. I may do that next time I'm out and have some free time.

    Oh hell yeah!

    I just bought Yoda for... like 19.60. 20% off with GameStop's price gouging isn't much but it's better than nothing. Another near miss for Cara Dune, by the by. I guess I'm done until Black Friday now, they're all stocked up and probably won't be getting anything else before then.

    I think I'm definitely getting that new Rey, but there's already 3 of her for every one of each other thing so she'll be 10 dollars before too long.

    I actually meant ghost Yoda, not the regular one. But you should definitely wait on Rey. She's started to shelfwarm here along with the Jawa.

    I must have seen Jet Trooper and Jannah 3 times in store this weekend, but I don't pick the up. What's wrong with me?

    It’s conceivable that there is nothing wrong with you and you simply don’t find them exciting enough to actually get them. I personally think they are kind of boring.
