What was your happiest moment in Star Wars Minis??? Getting a Boba BH? Mine was just today when I got my first Cortosis Gauntlet. Or it was maybe getting the Emperor on Potty.

I was pretty pleased at getting Imperial Governor Tarkin in my first ever booster, coz he was a rare :O Ah, those were the days.... Now it would probably be either be getting Darth Bane, Exar Kun, Darth Maul, and Darth Nihilus for NZ$9 each ( plus $4 shipping total) or introducing one of my best friends to the game :)

My happiest moment must have been when my Roan Fel quad oppertunist attacked (with the help of Tarkin) my brother's General Obi-Wan Kenobi , with the original Soresu Mastery, and he failed every save including two rerolls, with mettle, and I did 120 damage and ROFL STOMPED insta killed him. ^_^

Beating R5Don4 after years of trying. Only done it twice, and the first time was through the Imperial Entanglements release tournament (I pulled the Vader and his power piece was Arica), and then I more legitimately beat him at a constructed event.

Mine was going 3-1 in the 150 Jedi Challenge at 09 Gencon. Almost went 4-0 but I lost to shinja on the last iniatiate roll. His Kol put my Han, Smuggler out of its misery. For that one moment it was all worth it. I pulled a Jedi Exile in my prize pack.

My happiest was when you beat Tint after he beat me.

When I won my first local tourney.

When I emptied 4 boosters on my carpet and my son crawled for the first time over to them, I couldn't stop smiling and my wife was crying until he almost swallowed the revan I got then I almost cried

Mine was opening up my Dark Times case, as it was the first case I ever bought. That was when I really felt like a SWM collector.

When I saw the stack of printed cards for v-set.
For real... this game has kept my mind occupied through some rough times. It was such a bummer when wizards dropped the line, and seeing the cards made me really feel like the game was not dead yet.

I have 2.
1. Winning the Atlanta regional this year was pretty awesome. I never would have thought a year ago i'd be able to do that.
2. Seeing my friend Echo24 win Gencon. He's a great guy and just straight up outplayed everybody.

I suppose mine would be my son's reaction at the LGS when Boba BH came out of a free booster (was bought with prize $). Really wish I'd had my video cam with me.  Or when I handed him $15 and sent him to pick out a Legacy booster with Cade in it, and he did.

Beating a Vader JH/Sith Witch 100pt sealed squad with a Reek and General Kenobi. Then being one failed block away from doing it again in the 3rd round of the same event. That convinced me that "pulls" don't completely determine sealed events, and that there was a great deal more strategy to the game than I had realized before that time (Universe release at Gencon) - which in turn got me into the game in a serious manner. The rest is history :)
In case anyone is curious, I finished 5th in that event, behind 4 Vader JHs and ahead of 3 lol. If I had won the second game, I would have played Vader JH/Dark Trooper that won the event for 1st with total garbage.

Cracking open multiple cases on every set from UNIVERSE on. Even though I know I will be able to trade for (or buy) anything that I didn't get, I still loved the thrill of seeing what I DID get.
Or possibly the realization that there was a thriving community of stat customizers.
