Until now, I've been needing Kanos, Pavan and K'Kruhk from Dark Times. Now I only need K'Kruhk!  hey! I have a kkruck up for trade...BM me if ya need it =)

I was able to talk to my store's Excell rep personally and learned that she's now trying to get us as much SWM as possible as it is selling exceptionally well. Part of that would include one of the trading card fast racks in toys being converted to pure SWM (If corporate gives permission it would consist of 6.99 boosters, primarily KOTOR). I also learned from her that she just delivered some JA to my local Target as well, so I'm probably going to swing by tomorrow.
I did grab a GaW booster for the heck of it on my lunch break today and pulled a Wat, leaving only Vebb and Ohnaka left to complete the set.

Yeah, I use it more than I would Ahsoka or AniSTAP anyway. My friend has one too, so I'm looking forward to using them with my new General Skywalker or Flobi.......

The Gelagrub is one of the only ones i need to complete the set. My brother has one waiting for me thankfully, but it is silly that it has taken me so longto get hold of one.

I went back to the Target that I bought the 5 discount boosters from yesterday, and they loaded the shelves with more discount booster goodness in response to yesterday's purchase. I left the store with three FU, three SSB, three GaW, and two Imperial Entanglements. I netted a Felucian Warrior on Rancor, Boba Merc, Han Solo of Hoth, Cad Bane, Hondo Ohnaka, General Rieekan, a Star Destroyer, Commerce Guild Destroyer, Millennium Falcon, and a Rogue Squadron X-Wing! That's a ridiculous amount of luck! I now have a ridiculous three Cad Banes!

Well, I live in Minnesota. The motherland of Target. There are at least 20 stores in a 60 mile radius of where I live. About 99.9% of them have upgraded to Super Targets in the last 10 years. Everyone I have been to that is a Super Target has minis still at full price. I did find one regular Target in a smaller town that had 3 TFU boosters with the special 50% off sticker and a bunch of Jedi Academy boosters with the special 40% off sticker on them. They also had about 10 Dark Times boosters that had no sticker and showed full price still, which I thought was weird. So, it looks like you have to have the special sticker on them from the distributor to get the discount. I think I'll wait and see if they go cheaper as while I was there I picked up a ton of GI Joe action figures for 88 cents a piece.

That's kind of funny because I live just over the border into Wisconsin and the Target I went to is in Hudson. So rather close to the twin cities And I'm lovin the trade bait

I was too tempted, but remembered why I buy by the case.
3 boosters of IE = 3 useless rares, no mouse droids...
I am glad everybody else is getting cool stuff. I just think that I am done unless I see some Starship battles on sale :)

Blah, I picked up 2 boosters of TFU from Target today at 50% off. Got a second Leia of Cloud City and a second PROXY, along with a Rebel Troop Cart and Telosian Tank Droid. I'm still missing a fair amount from TFU, so I was hoping for something I didn't already have, or at least a VR. Oh well, at least they were cheap!

I went to Target to see if they had any, and I was surprised to see 10 IE boosters, 4 GaW, and 1 JA. I bought 2 GaW and 1 IE. My IE had Logray (meh) and a MOUSE DROID! Then my first GaW had Grievous Scourge and an R7! Yay for R7, lol. Then the 2nd GaW had a Clone Trooper with Repeating Blaster and CAD BANE!!!!!

Cad seems to be abundant at Target right now (see above). This reminds me of when the Battle of Hoth battle packs came to the local Base Exchange in Misawa. Of the 10 or so Battle of Hoth packs that arrived, between my playing friends and I, we opened four of them with Boba Fett, Bounty Hunter inside the bonus BH pack (two of them were in mine.  )
