um...I bought one booster at borders, there were only 2 left, it was of Force Unleashed. I got VAU. Thought to myself, I'll go back and get the other since I had such good luck with the first one, i picked up the box and the figs fell out, the back side had been slit open and the person left it, because it was a rebel troop cart lol.
my first booster ever was Captain Argyus. i'm still at about 80% on opening VR's when I buy single boosters! The force is with me. Luckily I have yet to open a booster and get the same R. My cases seemed to be cursed though, no Captain Rex in CW, and BH was the worst, No Boba, no Jango, No Vader, No Han solo, No Nikto, No Mandalore :(

So I went back to Borders and got another IE booster. Was a little sad that it was only a Rare, again, but at least it's one I don't have: R2-D2 with Extended Sensor. Then, lo and behold, there's a Mouse Droid in the booster! YAY! Recap for my in-store vs. online pulls:
In-store
LotF #1 - Deena Shan
IE #1 - Lobot, CLO
IE #2 - R2-D2 with Extended Sensor
Online
LotF #2 - Cade BH
IE #3 - Mitthrawn
JA #1 - Darth Maul SA
And I'll be getting a CotF booster in the mail soon, so hopefully it's got a Bane, Kun or Mas, an Uggie Demo, and a Jedi Weapon Master! lol

Haven't bought packs in a while: at this point, I am pretty much content with my collection. One of my most epic pulls was a Boba BH out of a case of Bounty Hunters I got when I was a rookie in this game; at the time I yanked Fett, I could count the number of matches I had played on the fingers of one hand. Beginner's luck, eh?
Also knew a player at the LGS who, from buying boosters from the Internet and other game shops, got five consecutive Deliah Blues in his LOTF packs. Fate is cruel...

I pulled two of her. I was pretty annoyed because I think she sucks. But then I have been looking at her more, and might be able to find a use for her...

one time at my LGS i found a pack that was bulging out it was an IE pack so i thought it might be Palpy on throne. so i buy it and rip open the top only to find its a bacta tank i was so mad i almost gave away the pack to a little kid, but decide i should see what the VR/R is so i open it some more and at the bottom of the pack i find a Palpy and right next to him is a tiny little mouse droid. BEST PACK EVER

I bought a KOTR Booster at Borders about a month ago. I hadn't seen any for sale in a while and I was like "Why Not?" It was all uncommons and commons. The booster was missing a r/vr piece, but had the correct total number of pieces. All were sealed in bags and the cards were still sealed in plastic. Lame

Yeah, she's not that bad, but I can understand the sentiment of not being happy pulling her, lol. She is just an ugly looking mini. I LOVE Asajj, Separatist Assassin, as a character and a figure. My latest pull story is from last week. Everywhere where I live has stopped selling boosters, so I was amazed to find a lonely looking KotOR booster for £10 at my bookstore (usually £12.50 there). I bought it quite excited at how this could make a great pull story. Called my brother so he could be part of the experience and opened it up, at which point the cards were on top and the top one was Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. I was quite disappointed as I had been hoping for Darth Sion or Master Lucien Dray or something.

Jedi Academy gave me a strange run of boosters. I pre-ordered a case, but is was going to take a few days to deliver, so I bought a booster to tide me over: Darth Plagueis. Not a piece I was particularly hoping for, but a VR nonetheless.
A few days later my case came, and one of my 4 VRs was... Darth Plagueis. Trade bait, so still not too bad.
That weekend, at the sealed deck tournament, the LGS opened two cases and randomly distributed the contents. My two boosters... BOTH Darth Plagueis!
Yeah, I haven't bought a JA booster since. I don't need any more Plagueis'!!!
BTW: I have been able to trade them all away, so they've found good homes elsewhere.

A week or two ago I was at borders and they had a JA and DT booster there. I bought both and In the JA pack I got Naga Sadow and I was like "YES! This already pays for both!" also I got a JBmaster and Sith Lord and Antarian Ranger. I then oppened the other Pack and it had Zuckuss BH, Elite Sith Assassin, and Jedi Watchman and a Talz Chieftan. That was some pretty darn good pack luck IMHO.

I once bought a pack of Bounty Hunters and The Force Unleashed online. When they arrived I got Djas Puhr and a Corporate Alliance Tank Droid. I was so disappointed that I didn't bother opening the Force Unleashed pack until the next day. That next morning I opened the Force Unleashed pack. I pulled Darth Revan and a Wookie Hunter AT-ST.
All was good in the world again.

I had never played the game before. I'd seen it played a bit, and I'm a SW fan and a RPG guy, so I let myself get talked into buying into the Legacy of the Force release sealed event to even out the players. Pulled Krayt and Katarn... and won the tourney. I've been a hard core player/collector ever since.

I guess, but there are SO many better pieces from CotF that I could've gotten. Not to mention Atgar has ZERO playability value, so I'll need to find someone who needs it for collecting purposes so I can salvage some of the price of the booster. That said, I did get RC Boss and an Uggie Demo, so it wasn't a total wash. Still, I haven't pulled a VR or a useful R (that i don't already have) in a while, so I'm getting a little disheartened. =(
