    I looked at the figures and went 'Meh'.

    Rather order the SHF Stormtroopers than pay for the Hasbro crap. Im waiting for Phasma and the riot Stormtroopers so I can order them too.


    Oh BTW........Let the scalping begin

    Well as a life long Die hard Star Wars nut. I had a great time. Spent an insane amount. Met a lot off great people and was a real party happening while waiting. We all had fun shopping and helping everyone find what they wanted. It continued even after we all left the store. Had never met most of the people before and was a fun night. If the opening night is like this its going to be one hell of a party night. 3/4 inch figures. Vehicles. 6inch Black and Lego for all. Could not have asked for more.

    Pleasantly surprised today to see Kmart stock x-wing (redeco) & tie fighters. $59 & $79, respectively I think.

    They are not redecos. The new versions are different but similar to the old vehicles. X Wing in hand not so good. The Tie is awesome.

    Launceston was a complete bust for Force Friday - the only new thing out of all the stores was the new Hasbro Tie Fighter at Kmart - that was literally IT out of Kmart, Target, Myer, Toyworld...

    Saturday morning everything showed up but it was too late, I already ordered every lego set off shopforme for 20% off...

    Went in to my local TRU today to check out the new SW stock, about a year ago I picked up some extendable light sabres (Obi and Vadar) for the kids to have some fun with, anyway noticed that they released Luke's light sabre as part of the new merch so thought that would be cool to pick up, but when I extended it I found out that it's actually 10cm shorter then the two I already have... Why?... Seriously why?, I know I may be a bit OCD but what was the point of making the new sabres shorter?, they look like daggers now not swords
    My wife asked me why I carry a gun?, I said "Decepticons"... She laughed, I laughed, the toaster laughed, I shot the toaster. It was a good day.
