So yesterday, my Buddy decides that hes gonna go to our LGS, and drop 250$ on minis. he gets a case of Bounty Hunters. anyone who has ever bought a BH Booster, knows that 7 out of 10 times, you will get yer heart broken. first couple of boosters, he pulls the ever so horrible utupaun on dactillion, the not so bad, but not that great Mustafarian flea rider. The 5th Booster has Lord Vader, not bad, but definitely not worth 120$ for the case. the 6th Booster?  Boba BH!! Yay!! Whoo Whooooo!! blah blah blah.  out of the other boosters from other sets, the most notable pull was DoomBot from IE.  So my other Buddy, who has been dying to get a Boba BH for the longest time, gets a wee bit Jealous. i say to Him "Just go on ebay and drop 65$ on him, it wont be as bad as dropping 250$". My friend by the way is ever so Frugal. but he listens to me, and searches for the Fett. It just so happens that he came across a Fett that was listed incorrectly, the bidding had 35 seconds left on it. make a long story short, he gets Fett in 2 minutes time, at 35$. My other Buddy, we will call him money bags, was SoOoOoO

C'est la vie.

The first pack of minis I ever bought was a Bounty Hunter pack. I got Boba BH for roughly $21.99, and that's what got me hooked on the game. It's not just the thrill of the game, it's the thrill of opening a pack and seeing that little circle with a star in it, and a Sith insignia on top....oh it sends shivers down my spine!

Yeah, nice post man, I was the guy that dropped to 250 on figs yesterday. I was so excited I was nervous when I pull Boba Fett, BH! Then last night to add to the excitement, I won a Boba Fett Mercenary Commander on Ebay! To top of it all with the story of the fett. I played my girl in a draft last night, my bfbh disintergrated both Yoda, Jedi Master, and GOWK.. It was pretty nice!

Wow he got a nice case. On a note for those wanting Boba, BH you can find it regularly on ebay for prices much lower than $65. You just have to be patient and watch the auctions.
