No prob man, it’s all really how much work your willing to put in to sell it as to what you’ll get back. I’d jump at 900, your getting a good deal. Get a couple (provided they’re in as great a shape as they appear) graded and find an old early bird back drop for the original set you could make a decent profit there.... or if your collecting you just got a healthy and respectable collection for a great price in one shot. Congrats man.

YUP!!! Totally agree!!!! Terrible choice on hasbro's part. She wears the other outfit for 5 minutes of screentime. Sigh.

4-LOM arrived from Amazon today. I've always been fond of 4-LOM because even though he's a droid he has this bug head that looks very B-movie charming to me. As a figure I really like Hasbro's effort but it isn't without some drawbacks. As I expected given he shares parts with C-3PO there are articulation limits with the legs. On the other hand his arms are new and while it's still pretty limited you can actually get different poses out of them. Appearances are where I think the figure shines, they did a great job giving him that rusty look and his head is fantastic. The head was cast in a translucent green and then painted over so it allows his eyes to really pop when they catch light, you can also shine a light through his head and it's kind of like light-piping on a Transformer.

Where am I? I must have taken a bad step

TRU dying breath pick-ups, let's me end my history with them on a good Star Wars note.

I never wanted this Ackbar pack before, even when they initially tried to clearance it out, but now at $12 for the two figures it was too hard for me to pass on one of my favorite aliens. I still want them to do a classic Ackbar but this is a good stand-in until then.

The Vader centerpiece is just a good looking statue/diorama for $20. I'm actually really surprised that this was still in the store, everywhere else around me the Darth Vader centerpiece sold out even at full price.

Someone could give me the black series TIE fighter for free and I would probably still not keep it because it is just too damn big to put anywhere practical.

Picked up a set of wind-up Gladiator Droids at Disney Store for $9.99... They scale pretty well with the Black Series figures. Also a nice way to add some robot filler to a Jawa or junk shop dio.

Those droids are pretty cool, espesh for ten bucks.

SlamSlayer · 06-28-2018, 10:11 AM

More Inquisitors!?

No, no these are something else.

MeLikeJinx · 06-29-2018, 03:40 AM

^ Nice. I miss Ahsoka... not Rebels Ahsoka though... Clone Wars Ahsoka.

Saw the Black Series AT-ST at Ross for 15 bucks... couldn't resist at that price. The thing is kinda hard to stand on its legs, but the figure it comes with is pretty awesome. Gonna probably get another one just for the fig. And wish the AT-ST wasn't the Endor version with the brownish yellow highlights... prefer an all clean gray version.

I don't miss Ahsoka. In fact, I rarely ever miss at all...
