That CHEERS15 code expired, unfortunately... Oh well, at least I know where to find white Boba!

Just picked up the Yoda/Tie Fighter Pilot/Clone Sergeant wave at TRU today. The Tie Fighter Pilot is the hands down winner, in my opinion. He's just sleek and sexy in black, and he has a surprising range of head movement given the tubes.

Yoda is a bit too fiddly, and doesn't have a knee bend. Then again, he is Episode V Yoda, and is a bit older/saggier looking than the more recent prequel trilogy/Clone Wars series self.

Yeah, the TIE Pilot is really nice. I like him a lot myself.
As for the Clone, has there been any indication that there will be multiple Clone repaints? I may have to get one if there are going to be others, but for some reason, if it's not going to be repainted, I think I'm going to pass on it.

Really? All clones/troopers are must buys for me. Even if you only get one to command your regular troopers, he'll be worth it.

They are for me as well. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'd prefer to have multiple Clones to buy instead of just one, so if they were planning on putting out a couple Clones, I'd be more inclined to buy them as opposed to if they just released one Clone.
I guess I want to "have to" buy many different Clones instead of just a Clone. Like if they did what they usually do in the 3.75 lines, where that Ep. II Clone comes out in red and blue and yellow and some kind of green.

They've already released vanilla Clone Troopers, so you have the ordinary ones to collect (although I've never seen one in the wild, apparently they exist on BBTS, etc.). I can't see them not doing particular variants; it seems like an obvious way to capitalize on the Clone Trooper mold. I'm sure we'll get ARC Troopers, Commanders Cody/Rex, etc.

I've seen one plain Clone at a Target. Again, if they put out multiple variants, I am all in on them, and will get any/all of them. If it's just one Clone, I'm not certain if I'm going to go to any real trouble for it. But if they do ARCs and commanders, god have mercy on my wallet....

I got the 3.75 Black Series Darth Malgus today.

I preordered Vader. The base looks cool, and the Black Series Vader's brown eyes big me.

Seriously? I hardly think that the same old Luke/Obi Wan/Vader/R2 run of figures are worth $15. And the five points of articulation Rebels figures certainly aren't worth that. Boo Walmart.

I'd like to find Yoda and Anakin. And Vader. I haven't seen anything new in-store outside of a single ROTJ Luke in several months.

Vader's long gone - I had to pick mine up on eBay.

It went from quite dead around here, and by that I mean Greedo and Leia shelfwarming up the wazoo, to being inundated with the Clone Sgt/Tie Pilot/Yoda/Obi-Wan wave.

No Clone Troopers, Storm Troopers, Anakin, or Vader to be found. I love the 6" Black Series line, but man is it annoying to backtrack (and find acceptably mint boxes).

Yeah I know and it looks really good I'm just not sure if CB means that one or another Solo. Technically there could be 3 different ones on a shelf at some point.
