Full wave 2 40th minus sand person at TRU Joondalup
Well went for a drive today and found Sabine Wren in a Reject Shop.
One happy camper now:D
These are meant to release on the 22nd of this month. But the nice employee opened the case for me and let me buy a couple. http://https://www.instagram.com/p/B...y=gerardbrudda
Found at Mt Ommaney, BRISBANE

It’s a significant part of the reason that we’re seeing The Vintage Collection front and center again in the mainstream market. Stay tuned for more details as they emerge.
I quite like the 5POA that's been on offer lately -takes me back to the little Sinnertwin years playing on the floor- but I don't mind if they bring back more articulation either.
Even when using IMG tags unless the link ends with an img file name ie .jpg .png it won't.Quote:

My local BigW at Brisbane, Brownsplains had 4 jawas (Now 2 thanks to my army building addiction) 1 stormtrooper, and 4 death star commanders. No c3-po or chewy :P
Also, anyone heard the wave 01 40th SW BS got put of out production? damn :C
Went to my BigW tonight with the hope of finding a Jawa. And I did! I got 3 Jawa's now. 2 to open as you need 2 and one to keep sealed.Quote:

I already have a OG bs han solo. But, i liked the card
Just completed wave 02 by purchasing in store. (Should add up to $180 from bigw) Yay! But man is c-3po hard to get.
50% off Star Wars toys at Target starting tomorrow.....if you can find any.
Target Liverpool had stocked up on some 3.75 figures, nothing else worth mentioning.Quote:

Target had bugger all. Got TFA Admiral Ackbar 3 & 3/4 inch figure. $3 too.
Got a couple of 20inch Stormtroopers $14.50 each. And a R2-D2 interactive for $69. It's in the current BigW catalogue for $148.
Was C3PO ever released here in 6 inch size?Quote:

The wave with red arm 3PO had very little release here. I found one at Toys R Us but it was a sneeze and you missed it wave.
Thanks for that!Quote:

Booragoon Gamesworld also had 20% off everything when I was there on Sunday. They have a few Hot Toys as well and Artfx+ figures. Though my wallet cannot take anymore hits :)
There's the Nexus toy fair this Saturday at Vic Park at 9am as well... bigger hits to the wallet! BAM!!!! Lol :D
Hopefully some decent stuff. Occasionally get some good deals there. Scored a $20 BS Anakin at one last year.
Yep. Gamesworld in VIC too.Quote:

Living SOR sucks. Just one TRU and if you don't hit them in the 48 hour period they actually get new stuff in it's gutted. They never have any new stuff when I'm there frequently and then I miss the restocking. And Big Ws just never have anything at all unless I travel to Belmont, but I'm counting that as north. :P
SDCC Luke and Rey Skywalker
http://i.imgur.com/Vtjrnud.jpg
and on ebay already starting from $250US :D
https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...+luke&_sacat=0
Hopefully they're like the last couple of SDCC "upcoming movie" releases and just fancy box versions that will be in the regular line (like the FO Stormtrooper in 2015 and Jyn Erso in 2016). Otherwise, we riot.
Anyone found the TRU exclusive Clone Commander Gree? Facebook groups are reporting him being found all over, but in limited number. Nothing at my local TRU here in WA, though (surprise surprise).
One box per store only, most of NSW has already sold outQuote:

Try tomorrow. :mad:Quote:

What's the best group for sightings?Quote:

there is a black series australian group on FB if anyone is on there, quite a few people are posting sightings in Vic and other places. I saw a couple at chadstone TRU last night and went back this morning to grab one for another collector who wasn't able to get around to the stores. A couple of people have likewise grabbed some to pass on to other collectors.
Saw this on TRU Oz's ebay store.Quote:

How does this happen? Just bought one from a Facebook group this morning for cost plus shipping. :P Ah well. Cheers for the heads up though!
What's the specific name, is it the "Australian Black Series Collectors"?Quote:

^^ That'd be the one. Why paranoid though?
On a side note, I FINALLY came across a Tusken Raider in the wild at Zing Carousel. Did not expect it, so that's always nice. It's the worst feeling when you look and look and come up with nothing.
Price matched to Big W, unfortunately their sale is over (of course) but still, $32 is better than $38.
