I approve of all the Clone Wars goodness! Just my opinion... but 2008- 2011 was the best time to be a SW fan... just a magical 3 years if you happened to be a 3.75" scale collector.

That was an awesome episode.

I wish stores would stock sw black stuff. Like 2 or three waves have come out but the only things on pegs are the unsellable jahna and yavin luke and reys. Never saw bly, clone commander obi, ep 2 anakin and dooku waves. Wanted bly dooku and anakin but stores are barren wastelands of useless garbage and all online places are on perpetual pre-orders or sold out.

Distribution of product at retail stores is a crap shoot. Between distribution centers losing orders, employee theft, Hasbro shipping and ordering system that is horrible it is amazing that we find anything at all. Sometimes I order from multiple places if I really want a figure. If I end up with doubles, I keep or return it. If by some miracle I find it at a retail store, I will cancel my order so the next person in-line gets it. This is a new world. Gone are the days of Toysrus and other stores having massive amounts of space dedicated to Star Wars, GI Joe, He-Man, Transformers, etc. Now it is about allocation and turning product to some extent. Last year I was in Michigan in a small town for a family event. They had Marvel Legends and SW Vintage figures that I had never seen in my area but I had already bought on-line and got free shipping. If these figures were at my local Walmart, they would have been bought in 1-2 days.

Padme: Go back to the ship and call for help.
C3P0: I regret the transmitters on the ship are out of order.
Padme: WHAT!?
C3P0: The ship has been destroyed.
Padme: Battle Droids?
C3P0: No. *sad tone*
Padme: Jar Jar?
C3P0: Jar Jar.
