Cheers, Double D! :)
It was only by luck that I decided to drop in and have a quick look. My local RS a level below where I work had absolutely 0 SW stock in when I checked yesterday, so it looks like some stores are getting deliveries later than others.
R1 W2 '16 Figures for those playing at home

Let us know if you guys spot any different figure assortments :)
W2 40th's at Big W Liverpool
$32 each. :rolleyes:
Pass. I liked the $17 Target was offering much better. :D
Say whaaaat?!Quote:

Slim pickings today, but for $13 can't complain too much.
The Inquisitors card does have some damage and slight cracks on the plastic shell, so that's a bit of downer... Still, this was the only time that I was able to see one in the wild on the FA card and decided that it better than nothing.

MYER are also taking a further 20% off the marked prices of their Clearance Star Wars products.
Did you happen to notice if the Black Series Death Trooper helmet was on clearance?Quote:

Went into Tea Tree Plaza today. Apparently all the BS figures sold the morning they got them in from the same person.
Yeah, I've heard a few stories of how stores are being cleaned out like that.Quote:

I didn't expect to see Wave 3 (Wave 1 2017) figures in stock. The factory case was sitting on top of the shelves, so I just helped myself to it :p
Admiral Thrawn was long gone :( but there were still a few Leia's, Shore and Deathtroopers in stock. It's a balanced case (2 of each) so finding Thrawn shouldn't be that difficult...
/wishful thinking.

Been all work & no play this week. I'm gonna go toy hunting today so looking for BS 6" & that 3 & 3/4" Grand Admiral Smurf.
I'm sure I saw Thrawn the other day at my local (they only had the smaller figs, no 6 inchers).
Let me know if you want me to grab it.
Toyworld is also offloading the same BS 6-inch wave (wave 9?) as The Reject Shop (Obi, Leia, Wren, AT-At pilot, Snowtrooper & the most elusive Darth Revan). $17.
Got the Grand Admiral Smurf! Appreciate the kind offer though. :)Quote:

And toyworld highpoint has many sarbines, obi wan's, leias...one at-at pilot, I'd love to meet the person who took the snowtroopers unless I'm mistaken, don't bother asking the staff either, already asked (for once the girl actually looked up the back rather than the usual "yeah nah sorry m8" response.
Out of 4 reject shops in the west I'm aware of only tarniet had any black series and its just 2 obi wan's and 2 leia's, werribee plaza didn't have any last thursday I checked (didn't check today ran out of time), altona gate and its 6 pegs were bare, highpoint didn't even have a spot.
There is a known scalper around highpoint so I thought I'd ruin his day before he found the black series figures, perhaps it was him who took the "sand people" figures as I'm sure they're meant to be part of this wave
Ehh, I wouldn't be lambasting the scalpers without laying some of the blame on Hasbro's case distributions also, creating a market for scalping.
1 40th Anniversary Stormtrooper figure per box, like the Tusken's, is just asking for trouble. It's the same with R2 and Han in the first wave also, considering the last time each figure was available in 6 inch form.
Ahem, and what would you like to tell that person? ;)Quote:

So as I mentioned long time ago here I just shoved my way into the pegs (kids would just be glancing while parents kept saying "let him finish dear" even though he was there for a good 10 mins in between his rummaging, no idea why he would shuffle to another section of the store just to toss out "bad" figures out) and started fist punching...literally punching boxes to reach into the back of the pegs and giving boxes a bit of a squeeze, after that he up and left, tossed out a nice k2so on the way that just had a window blemish but the nicest paint apps out of them all, and left, trolley half full of what he did find "ok".
I swear tru need quantity limits, always thought the trolleys of transformers mp's by the trolley load were a myth, after encountering him its more than believable since I still see him from the few times I visit highpoint (wish it was down near my way, kids would naturally ruin boxes lol)
I have a kid who really REALLY would like one to pair with my first order one :(Quote:

Snagged a Darth Revan, AT-AT Driver and Snowtrooper over the past couple of days from Reject Shops in WA.
Good stuff. :)Quote:

I'd keep the 40th Leia sealed and crack open the Black.
The Little Toy Company have Revan $40, AT-AT Driver $35 and Hera $30 up again.
Hmmmm.... i do need a Hera for my colleciones des rebels & LTC have been muy bien so far.
Thanks to board member KaRNiV8L PRiME for the Big W toy sale catalogue (22 June - 12 July). 40th anniversary 6-inch figures on sale for $25 (from $32).
Wonder if they will be Wave 1 and/or 2 or if there will be any left for the sale period.
Big W Catalogue
Picked up the TIE Fighter at TRU with the 20% FAMILY discount code. $160 felt like a decent enough price. No idea where I'm gonna put this thing.
I keep coming across the 40th anniversary wave 2 figures (1 Toyworld, 1 Big W and now 1 TRU) but it's always Jawas and Death Squad Commanders (of course, I got them at Toyworld a week ago and have consecutively seen them at cheaper and cheaper prices... how do I have this power??). TRU Cannington had THREE Jawas... how many were in a case??
2 Jawas
2 Death Star Troopers & 1 each of Chewie, C3, Tusken & Stormtrooper.
Guess it kinda makes sense given those 2 are new and the Tusken Raider is in the next wave.
I went in there about 8pm and grabbed a Jawa and the last Death Star dude. I already have 1 each but these are to open. Took advantage of the 20% off and VIP points so $25 each.Quote:

I almost felt sorry for the poor little bugger & bought him.
No restocks of the Blacks at The Reject Shop either.
I havent seen any of them yet :eek:Quote:

Zing have stocked 40th ann. 6-inch wave 2 figures. $38 ea.
lol good luck to him with that. I mean it too. Apart from the scraps of leftover figures, I haven't seen a solid case of figures at Big W for a while nowQuote:
