For those of you who collect stuff loose, what did you do with all of your old boxes? I kept all of my black series boxes but today I realised I have too many taking up space so started a clear out. I think I'll keep some like Boba Fett, Yoda and my favourites but I may just throw the other boxes away (or recycle them I should say.) Got quite a few Lego boxes I could lose too. Do you have boxes left? I kept a few, mainly ones of characters that I like most and the ones that I spent more on. Such as Boba, Palpatine and Yoda. Got rid of most of the red and black current boxes with the exception of Leia, Obi-Wan, Kylo Ren, Rey and Jyn.

After not being able to get R2 or Gree, I am starting to lose interest. Hope something good comes out on FF.

Those are being sold by Kokomo Toys. They have em up on ebay as well. I shop at their physical store a lot, the best toy store in the US IMO. The prices on their ebay are a little high for some of them but they are the first to have em and they wont be out for another month or so according to other reports plus theyre selling some of them for retail price and even under on a couple. I was able to pick up all of the ones I wanted today luckily. Nice surprise to see these out this early.

Worth the tiny bump in price.

I noticed that Gentle Giant will be releasing a 12 inch version of the Early Bird Kit in January. 4 large figures for $280.

I very much doubt I would have sold them anyway if you're in the US. Hell, I don't even want to deal with the hassle of selling stuff in my own country!

I really thought I didn't need THAT much on Force Friday, but then all the exclusives started popping up today and I'm pretty sure I'll be poor tomorrow. Especially if wave 2 pops up in some stores.

I am getting slightly irritated with Hasbro and this line. The sculpt looks great, but he clearly has a huge scar on his face on the carding... yet none on the figure... come on! After the last 5-6 sets of Marvel Legends that have come out we know its possible for them to up their game and produce quality figures. The Star Wars line they have gotten so f'n lazy on lately it seems. Repackaging same old crap like Jihn and Cassian for 3 seperate releases and flooding shelves with them. Horrible distribution on NEW figs people actually needed like Imwe and Baize. I'll probably never get Lando, Royal Guard, Tusken or Qui Gon because they virtually are non-existant in stores due to stores being filled to the brim with the terrible Rogue One figures that no bombed. I think they would have had better success with them if the likeness was actually more accurate. I see some quality in these new figures, but then I also see some giant turds coming out like the new Rose action figure where her face gets the Jihn treatment. Accurate uniform, but the face is pale, lifeless and no detail to it. Maybe I am just spoiled by Marvel Legends lately but I am getting fed up with this series and I really dont want to be.

After the last 5-6 sets of Marvel Legends that have come out we know.... The new face scan tech is coming to Star Wars Black next year. Which is cool, and means we can buy all of these figures all over again with better likenesses! There is a Walmart exclusive coming that appears to have the scar.

Hit Walmart and got Thrawn and Hera. Picked a chase Funko Pop Porg but gave it to a Pop collector. Then hit Target and my good karma paid off as some guy gave me the only Target exclusive FO ST Executioner they had left.

Another pathetic Force Friday showing local Target had no Black series figures. Only 3 basic Hux. The same exact scenario when the Force Awakens stuff came out, nothing in the store.

If last year was any indication then don't sweat it. Here we are a year later and most of the first release force Friday items are still warming pegs. No doubt everything that was released today will be pretty easy to obtain in the upcoming months.
