We might have something you don't have or a Cad Bane, you know how much you can get for him!". So, I finally gave into temptation and bought them. Obi-Wan, JG and General Skywalker.  Two pretty good minis, but I'm taking it you have them. I've seen some packs of LOTF for 8 bucks at some stores around here, but haven't bought a one yet.

Yeah, I'm only missing Hondo and Vebb so there's not much point in buying more boosters, but the fact that the last two boosters I got contained 2 of the 4 pieces I was missing (Mar Tuuk and Wat), and that I'm constantly passing by the boosters over the course of an 8-hour shift, 5 days a week just made them too tempting. I just need to tell myself to wait 'til LotF, KOTOR, and JA are restocked. Then I can get my fix.

Well, my wife this morning cherry picked a FelCor(number three will trade him for a Univ. Rancor). She makes me proud. I also went ahead and got the CW starter set for $5.00. It never hurts to have an extra map.

Went there today. No TFU left on the shelves.  Passed on JA and GAW for the last 3 IE packs they had out. Pulled Kyp/Mouse, CLObot, Leia BH. Other than the mouse, not too thrilled, but certainly could have been worse.

No liquidation sales here. The product is just sitting infront at me at £10/£11/£12 a pack.
So not brought anything, considering quitting to be honest considering I've only had a handful of real games this year.

LOL, I tried again today with one TFU. Pulled an Uggernaught and K3PO. Doesn't sound like much, but I was happy since I didn't have those two and I'm trying to complete the set.

You know, buying some TFU, it made me appreciate the 40 piece sets more. I have nearly a complete collection, so the R/VR aren't such a big deal. But my god, the C/U are terrible in TFU, at least in most of the 40 piece sets, there is a good deal of C/U I want more of (sadly, the dejariks to bring down MOTF, and I LIKE the dejariks).

I've tried 2 Targets here in Utah... full price Dark Times...that's all
However I did a buy 2 get 1 free from my local game shop. I got Dark Times (it was that or Alliance/Empire) And I pulled Merumeru, Kir Kanos (already had him, traded for Cay Keldroma) and Ferus Olin...Not bad for $30

Went in on last Thursday and found (after checking three times) that they finally had boosters on sale. Picked up two TFU and two IE. Decided Id go sit on one of the benches inside the mall and open them, as I was having the Mos Eisely Meltdown maps laminated, so I decided to keep killin time. TFU: Vader Unleashed and Apprentice Redeemed, Knobby Spider, and another UC huge. IE: Palpy in Chair and Leia Bounty Hunter 3 VR out of 4 boosters for $40. not bad. So, I threw out my trash in the can sitting next to me, put the figs and cards in my bag, got my maps (all four laminated for less than $20 total) and went home. A couple hours later, I decided to actually put the minis away. the vader set of cards was missing  I went back to town (20 miles, 25 minute drive) back to the mall, and go inside just in time to stop the janitor from getting to the trash can long enough for me to pull the cards from the booster.

Agreed. Aside from the Camasi Noble (maybe), Evo and Raxus troopers, 1-2 is plenty of everything else. Well, except the game-changing Snowtrooper. :P Now, if the Golan Turret had the trooper SA, I would use 3-4 of them in a squad.

Amazing story, I bet you breathed a sigh of relief while walking out to your car with cards in hand! I can only imagine the gut punch feeling of realizing your cards are missing too. What an emotional rollercoaster, LOL. I'm glad you got your cards back. Great pulls, by the way.

Since i don't have a target in my hometown, I decided to take a short drive to one of the nearest Targets. Sure enough, they had plenty of IE, JA, GAW, and Force Unleashed boosters. I bought more that I probably should have so I won't go into every r I got but here were the highlights. 4 mouse droids 2 General Reikenn Palpatine on Throne Luke, Rebel Commando Xizor. From my 3 TFU boosters I got an uggernaught and . . . . . Darth Revan.  All in all, a good day of opening minis.
