I haven't had a Slave I set since Jango's first came out. I sold that one, and had resigned myself to not getting a good set of it or the modern Boba Fett minifig. Cut to last year this time, my girlfriend bought me the Desert Skiff with modern Fett. Awesome! The only disappointment was no ship for him. Cut to yesterday, I was bored so I finally decided to build a little fighter for him. Cut to today on a random trip to Toys R Us, and my jaw dropped to find the Slave I set from 2010 sitting on the shelf. I resigned myself to not being able to afford it, and my girlfriend said we could split the cost. I go to scan the price, and it's not the original retail of $80, it's only $45!!! My girlfriend got it for me for my birthday, and I got the hell out of there, as if they were going to take it from me. I guess old sets were showing up, but this is still the COOLEST thing that's ever happened to me in my toy finding great day.

Congrats scarecrow! That's an awesome story and a great find!
