Now, I need to order the SHF Sith and my HMR VF-4 and it will be a good night.

 

Fuuuuuuuuuuuu! I didn't realize the SHF were all coming with bonus stages! Even the reissues.
第59回 全日本模型ホビーショー2019【STAR WARSアイテム最新情報】 | イベント | 魂ネイションズ イベントギャラリー

 

So far only old man Luke and old man Han have showed up on Amazon.co.jp (preordered both). Still waiting for the rest to show up.

 

Link?
Wait, those are old releases.

 

Done for tonight anyway.

Tomorrow I might look up a Gamestop, Walmart, and Target to hunt down Fox, a jet trooper, and a snow trooper.

Also, I wasn't planning on picking up a 2nd Sister, but she was too cool a figure to leave just lying around.

 

Also, quick pic of the off-world Jawa next to the original release. It's hard to pick a winner as they are both great figures.

 

It must be hell working swing shift at Walmart on the day Frozen II and Star Wars have their hard product launch dates. So thank you to the lady who wheeled out the entire endcap for me from the store room!


The Jet Troopers were around the side. They only had 4 out, but based on math Is say they just wanted to fill the pegs, and have at least the 4 from the same case in the back.

Cases look like Sith Trooper is double packed (yaaaay?) with one each of Rey, Kylo, Cal, Jawa, Second Sister, and FO Storm Trooper. No sign of Mando or Cara.

Looks like Pulse might have had a Mando left for me this morning, but has gone since the drove into work. I may have been wrong about that though.

Edit: Word to the wise, Jet Trooper looks like it's gonna be a major QC gamble, especially as far as the black paint around the visor is concerned. All four I looked at had some dark smudging on the chest plate, but the one I got looks like battle damage so it's cool in my book.

 

No white boxed first editions in the end cap? This morning has started out sorely disappointing. No sign of Mando on Amazon.ca, in fact no presentation that it's even Triple Force Friday. I hope when I get into TRU after work they still have something, but considering my 9-5 type job lasts so long I am not holding out much hope. Oh well, I got everything except Poe and the Knight of Ren figure ordered, plus a few must have Black Series items. I'm confident Rey will still be in store, not so sure on Seventh Sister, but we shall see. At least I got the new Brickheadz off LEGO's site, plus a few 20th sets on sale. Altogether no too bad.

I don't understand why Hasbro didn't at least re-tool/re-sculpt Poe's head. Pilot Poe to go with the X-Wing makes sense, but not that shitty ass sculpt from The BS repacked on a TVC card. At least a new photo real face sculpt would have justified double-dipping on him.

 

Oh yeah, that's a good point. I didn't even notice the black boxes. I don't collect in box anyway, but that might have sweetened the pot for a trade down the road if I can't find a Carbonized Sister in the immediate future.

 

As predicted, The Mandalorian is the most popular of the wave. So far, it's the only one sold out at most online stores.

 

Cool. In my haste to check out with a carbonized Mandalorian last night, because I figure why the heck not it's available while I'm looking, I didn't realize Target still had an old address as my default. Yippee!

Hopefully can intercept that with FedEx or USPS or whatever they use since it's now "processing" so I can't change on their site...

 

Yup. Got the last one here (in my area) as well.

 

No Walmart’s here took part, one target did and all the stuff collectors might actually want was mysteriously absent from the display when the doors opened.

 

From what I can tell for targets, the end cap display set up contains the first edition boxes, so it the end cap isn’t set up than they won’t be out.

The reg boxes have a new DCPI, 1 case per store.

 

Our Walmart must not have gotten the memo. Nothing new just the same 4 archive figures they’ve had for months.
