Went to Target today and ended up seeing 6 TFU boosters where previously there had been only GAW, JA, and DT. Needless to say, I saddle up to the lot and start picking them up 1 by 1.
1st one- Rattle it: Telosian Tank droid (I've bought enough of these trying to cherry pick a felcor to know).
2nd one- TIE crawler (look at above post).
3rd one- Troop Cart (ditto).
Couldn't tell what was in the the 4th or the 5th one.
Got all the way down to last booster on the shelf, dejected, and about to walk away picked it up and man was it heavy.
Bought it.
Felcor!- Woo Hoo!
And Maris Brood!
-not bad for a $10 booster.
By the way- anyone interested in some Boba Mercs or the Maris? Pulled 3 Boba's trying to cherry pick that darn felcor over the past couple of weeks and only needed the 1. Check out the trade thread and send me a BM-I'll accept anything approximating their rarity and value that I don't already have or most nonunique VR's.....trying to trim down my dupes. On the bright side, I now have enough Wookie Hunter AT-ST's to have that large scale battle I've been wanting to have for a few months now.

I finally pulled a revan (WOOHOO! I now have a complete set of TFU). Every IE booster I buy contains Logray (booo! I now have 5) and a mouse droid (YEAH! I now have 5).

hey guys!
i bought 2 more boosters by returning two DTs at full price W00T! returned them both for 14.99 a pop!)...i bought 1 TFU after feeling x7 of them at our supertarget...finally found one that was REALLY heavey!!!! BUT...im not sure the difference betweena tie crawler and felcore (ive felt a felcore but not a crawler)...is there a really big difference in weight between the two?? im like 95% sure its a felcore...
the second booster i bought was an IE...i shook it and it didnt shake much...felt it, didnt feel a bacta tank...maybe it has a palpy throne??
im opening the boosters soon! keep you posted ;)

I just got back from running an errand at my local Target. They had quite a few TFU boosters, but no Felcors. I grabbed 2 TFU and 1 JA and pulled Shaak Ti JM, VAR, and GMLS. While only Shaak Ti was new, all 3 boosters had a good assortment of Cs/UCs, so I'm happy.
I did find another nice surprise there as well. Apparently they were clearancing out a bunch of toys so I decided to take a look, and I saw something that I had never seen on the shelves before, but there they were, and on clearance no less. I grabbed two of them and now on my shelves there sits action figures of Alpha 5, Zordon, and the original Green Ranger.

Really disturbing thing at Target today. Somebody opened a FU booster and swiped the rare. I dunno which one it was. I saw it was open and figured I might as well see if it was worth buying. TIE Crawler and nothing interesting in the C/UC, but the rare wasn't even there. Ended up buying an IE booster.

How can you pull zero imperial troopers from an IE booster? Pretty amazing feat.

It was already open and I checked the contents. The cards were still sealed and the rare was not on the outside.

I also looked inside to see what was inside. However the rare was still there and it was cad bane, i quickly picked the pack up and bought it. I wasn't going to buy it because it was open yet i saw cad and my mind changed. All seven figures where in there with there stat cards, it's wired it was open, but it ended up working for me hahah

I've been buying TFU boosters at Target for the past couple weeks... nothing to write home about, until tonight! I'm the proud owner of a Felcor and Maris Brood from one booster. There was even a Rebel Vanguard in there yay!
Sad it wasn't Felcor and Revan though...

The Target sale finally made its way to Oregon and the shelves are overflowing. Today I bought 1 TFU and 1 KOTOR. It was a bust. The only piece I liked getting was another WEW. If anyone wants an Uggernaught or Mission, please check my trades. I may have a go at more TFU as I am missing about 8 VRs from that set. Does anyone know if there is a way to cherry-pick/identify Luke's SS?

Hit a Target this morning and grabbed 2 TFU. Pulled 2 rares I needed. Admiral Ozzel and Rebel Trooper on Tauntaun.  My huge mini's were Junk Golem and a Golan Battery. That gives me 4 Golan's, 3 Rebel Snowspeeders and Luke's Snowspeeder. Which is cool, because now I have all that to beat up and AT-AT.  I'll have to re-create the Hoth battle!

I would like to retract my earlier statement. The opened TFU booster I saw was in fact complete. I made two mistakes... 1. I thought the huge boosters had 7 figures plus huge, but it's 7 including the huge. (At least according to the Bloomilk 'open boosters' option.) 2. I didn't realize the Trooper on Tauntaun was a rare. When I didn't see a unique and I only counted 6 non-huge figures I thought someone had swiped the rare. My apologies.

Well, I thought the booster I opened with Felcor and Darth Revan would be my last (see above), but I went to another Target yesterday and found another particularly heavy TFU booster and decided to take a chance. I'm happy to report it contained another Felcor + Obi-Wan Kenobi, Unleashed. Not as good as my last TFU booster, but still very worthwhile for $11.00. I'm in the process of working on a few trades that may or may not work out, and will update my list in the next day or so. So, take a look then if you'd like either of these extra figures. My most up to date trade list can be found here (I also have several promo figures and maps I can trade): http://www.miniaturetrading.com/user/tonythetoyman
