Well, with last nights case of Knights of the Republic, I crossed over the halfway mark - at least according to the Bloo database - for my collection. 51.37 percent to be exact. The only sets I don't have at least some figures from are Universe, Champions of the Force, Bounty Hunters and Clone Strike - and those sets are pretty much impossible to find anywhere (at least reasonably priced). And of course with my job wrapping up at the end of the week and no prospects on the horizon that 51% is where I'll stay - well, aside from the odd off trade here and there.

Not too shabby for picking up the game in August.

(Now I just need someone to play against. :) )

If you only get one figure from Champions of the Force get Ugnaught Demolitionists. Lots and lots of them.

I started the game in January but only recently starting getting lots of figs since I actually have a full-time job now. I'm at 48.9%, and am pretty satisfied with most of my collection, though I'd always love more Mouse Droids (I have 12), Uggie Demos (I have 28), Rakghouls (I have 6), and Clone Troopers (I have 30), but besides that, I'm pretty good. =)

I had well over 50% with sets from RS- LotF Then in a horror story I lost all my stat cards and all but my huge minis. Had to start all over again and after 2 years am now at 56.83%. I was lucky I got a case of CS got 110 when I did. A few week later the price sky rocketted and they sold out for the most part. One can still pick up boosters of CS on Miniaturemarket. $25 though.

At this point it's probably easier to just buy the singles of what you actually want instead of buying blind. Between later sets and selective purchases, there's nothing in Clone Strike that I'm really missing (perhaps a Jango - but that's it)

I got myself two cases of cs for $350, awaiting them turning up, considering they aer worth about $500 for both for the single figures seems like a bargain to me!

Well, thanks to that screamin' deal that I found on Craigslist, I jumped from just a hint over 50% to nearly 70%. Suddenly I find myself only two figures short of a full Rebel Storm set, half way through a Clone Strike set and a whole bunch of Bounty Hunters and Universe. The only early set that he didn't really have a lot of was Champions of the Force.

So who knows, once I get a job again, I might actually shoot for a 100%. (:

With my 3 boosters of CW and several trades at the Pennsylvania event I went to yesterday, I'm now at about 51%. YAY! =)
