The Fred Meyer coupons flyer they have at the entrance's have coupons on it for an extra 15% off toys and games, I checked and this includes star wars mini's! I bought a couple packs and the guy said with all the holidays coming up especially Thanks giving when they do the days where they have events like an extra 10% off between 1pm and 5pm this includes Mini's and you an stack so with coupons and the events that's another 25% off!

On the bright side, my luck balanced itself back out by getting two hats in random item drops while playing Team Fortress 2 today. The Positive with the Luke LotLS is you can be head him and rposition arms, add a blaster and switch head with Utapau trooper and you have a possible Rebel Marine, if you switch it with a human blaster for hire you can make the sector ranger and has potential for an infiltraitor as well (from the Saga RPG books). A couple of good customs anyways not to mention Deena can work too.

the local Target has CW boosters down to $4.99. I really considered it until I stopped and realized that there is only one worthwhile trade character in the set. So I passed. (they had about 2 cases worth...but no Unleashed)

I got a pack of IE that I swear had a Palpatine in it. Instead, I got Bacta Tank number 5. Logray was the rare. But I did get a mouser, so it's not a total wash.

How much were the Legacy packs going for? I haven't seen those in a target yet.

$6.40 or maybe $6.99 Clone wars and the starter sets are the cheapest I've saw at $4.99 and $2.59 for the vader/obi won starters

And some of the uncommons/commons/non-unique rares as well such as Battle Droids, ARC Trooper Snipers, IG-86s, Star Corps Troopers, Chameleon Droids, Gelagrubs, and Galactic Marines. I'd hardly call CW a worthless set. If they had that much CW here, I'd be hard-pressed to not buy them all, lol.

Bought 2 IE for 7 bucks and got crap. Bought 1 for 5 bucks and got crap. Even when they are cheap I pull nothing and yet I keep buying even though I have them all. It must be a disease CRAPPULLITiS

My local Target finally restocked, picked up a bunch of $5 Clone Wars boosters (I didn't have any minis from that set). I was having such a crappy day too, when I saw nearly two cases worth of CW boosters on the rack, I flipped out! Totally brightened my day. Here's what I got, if you care:
Durge, JH GGDAC Captain Rex Anakin on STAP Padme, Senator Anakin, Champion of Nelavaan (sp?) Bariss Offee General Aayla Secura Chameleon Droid Gha Nacht Odd Ball
I am pretty happy, I have been coveting GGDAC and Durge for awhile. Now, I just need Yoda on Kybuck.

I bought a case of CW from fleabay to open with my daughter as well as a case of MotF and GaW, the cases cost me around £60 each which is pretty good in the UK.
So far we pulled
Durge Kybuck Rex Obi Wan Jedi General
Also ordered two cases of Clone Strike off the net, cost me around £200, but I figure this is theory actually worth it as many of the figures in that set were expensive.

Expensive, but obsolete. Not counting any that are resurrected by the V-set, only about a half-dozen minis are still useful in today's game.

Today was pretty good - I had somehow wound up with a handful of those Star Wars punch-out cardboard ships (like that pirate game, but with Star Wars), so I returned 'em and got 22 bucks of credit that I turned into a couple of Legacy of the Force boosters.
Wound up with my second Darth Nihl (have to see about trading him someday), a Cade Skywalker (my first - yippie) and a Jariah Syn. Two more down, seven left to go.

Of course...now you pull a Caedus, right after I get him! Where did you buy the boosters? I haven't seen anything other that TFU, CW and JA...

Bah - that coupon expired yesterday (the 16th). Ah well, have to keep an eye out as Christmas gets closer. . . .

A friend let me know that his Target had tons of CW packs in the X-Mas section, so I checked at my Target, and sure enough, there were 17 CW boosters! I bought 5 and got Gree (#3, up for trade), Sidogram (#2, up for trade), Odd Ball (#2, up for trade), Ani on Stap, and Grievous DAC (#2, up for trade). Not bad at all, but I would've liked more pieces I don't have from that set (Yobuck, Rex, Durge, and Ahsoka).
