Hey I dont understand why despite metro restocking, we ( or at least I )
have yet to see a SINGLE shocktrooper or black pilot. ( I know it is shortpacked bla bla) Even if scalpers got it, Im sure there should be no problem finding a stall or two in csc selling them.

It pains me if these jewels actually land up in th hands of 5 yr old kids! Argh imagine what will happen!

actually, I would rather they end up in the hands of kids who play with them.... rather than opportunists who have no interest in the toys and collectibles but grab them just so they can resell them.

I agree with Dranoel, the look on the face of a little boy who bought my a lego set from my friend was priceless. He didn't want a plastic bag, he was all smiling , hugging tightly onto the box, and running back into science center . Totally priceless...

Then and again, i would be jumping up and down if a kid opens some really valuable piece

ARC, they appeared at Suntec TRU opening. Few places had the cases with the variants. I read that americans bought 50 over for themselves to open, my piece is from a member here, he brought in from USA. So... i think... just use ebay

Normal figures $6.90 + 20% off = $5.52 ( many... 30-40 pieces? )

12"figures $19.90 + 20% off = $15.92 ( Emperor Palpatine, Shaak Ti, Barris Offee - few more left )

Arc-170 $49.90 + 20% off = $39.92 best deal of all! ( came still got 4 more but all reserved...anyway I have it already )

All others 20% discount off retail

I couldnt find R4-G9 or R2D2s for my sons's ARC-170...but got myself the 12inch female Jedis...so quite happy

Would appreciate if anybody knows where to get those

Gotta look bro, see a astro droid, don't wait, just grab em

Hmmm Paragon have not restocked yet, perhaps all Metros have not restocked, OG just restocked on Thurs or Friday. Try your luck at Metros

God knows why TRU have not started the clearance yet ... hope they throw out all their figures
