Interesting. This smells like a publicity stunt, like the recent Confederate Flag affair, or the scare about rice shortages and cotton shortages a few years ago that saw everybody pile into the grocery stores for rice, socks and underwear. Watch the sheeple chase after those shelf warmers. Canadians are manipulated like this all the time.

A few months ago I heard that TRU express had the Amazon exclusive Slave I. These are the TRUs in malls. I want back to the one where I found that Amazon exclusive Legacy Collection, and they had restocked. This time they were in the Amazon white shipping boxes.

Finally! A hint, albeit a very small one, at what we can expect on Force Friday :
Jedi Temple Archives News: BREAKING NEWS! Meijers Goofs - New Hasbro E7 Toy Details Revealed! With the event only six weeks away, I'm shocked that Hasbro has been able to keep such a tight lid on the upcoming Ep. VII figures.

If referring to the Meijer news...if you think that Hasbro is going to release a BMF, with all the bells and whistles, for LESS than the original after the price jumps? You're deluding yourself.
I'm giving it a toss up between the Hero series Falcon from last Christmas with a couple of figure pilot spots or a new mold concept evocative of the old Kenner Falcon in size |

So am I crazy in thinking the black series 4 inch jawas work decently well in scale with the black series 6-inch figures?

I passed on the Inquisitor's Tie Fighter from the Rebels line, on clearance for only $13, but I may return for it. The only exceptions to the clearance prices seem to be the two newest waves of 3 3/4" Black figures, which are in these odd pre-Force Friday displays that seem to be popping up at Wal-Mart. And yeah, the ridiculous $12.83 is the price for the 3 3/4" figures EDIT: Now that I think about it, since I've shifted my attention to the 6" Black line, I've only purchased three 3 3/4" Black Series figures (Starkiller, R5-G19, and my brand-new Commander Doom) over the past 18 months. They all came from either TrU or Books-A-Million, where I expected to pay a little more, so maybe $13 for the 3 3/4" figures has been the standard for the big box retailers for a while. I'm honestly not sure. Either way, I was surprised to see how much they sell for now.

Yep, while out hunting last night and today, I saw that Walmart and Target both had nearly all of their Star Wars stuff on clearance, even newer 6" Black figures, like Stormtrooper Han, Stormtrooper Luke, and the Tie-Fighter pilot.

finally got my hot topic order at the store today! the game came from gamestop tho and was down to $19.99!
put my pop vinyl boba next to my other bobbleheads and finally took a pic of my boba fett sunshade i got a while back! the only bad thing about the floormats is that they were stapled together w/ huge staples and so now i have 4 holes (kinda small, but still) in each floormat! you can kinda see them better in the one on the right >.< |

Has anyone seen the TRU Rancor Pit set in store? It's on the Canadian website, but it's sold out on the U.S. site. Want to pick one up with a coupon.
