Got my 2nd series of Archive figures today from EE. Very happy with them!

I bought two Target Lukes for $5.99 and a Target Han for $3.98. Those two figures went on clearance very quickly. I never replaced the Luke I returned, so this worked out well. Cheaper and Luke's nose looks much better than the first one I bought.

Anyone still finding Retro figures at Target? I was only able to get Tarken with the board game.

Gamestop had the two droids from the newest wave. I think that's all they're getting so far.

Amazon delivered Yoda on Tuesday. His face printing looks great. I got Obi-Wan today from Hasbro Pulse. He has 45 degree hip joints like Padme, which are kind of disappointing. Good thing Hasbro designers stay relatively anonymous. Imagine if Bill designed an Elite figure with 45 degree hips. Tomorrow's delivery will be Anakin from Amazon.

Scored an Archive Anakin at Best Buy yesterday, which is quickly becoming my go-to for Star Wars figs. Everytime I go in there, they got something I want!!

Im not really a Star Wars fan but I saw a black series Anakin & Darth Maul at Walmart yesterday. They looked pretty cool (even though easy passes for me)...but you star wars fans have some cool figures to collect.

are these archive figures exactly the same as the previous releases just with the heads tweaked a little? I saw Anakin and Maul at my comic shop but I really couldn't tell much of a difference.

Yeah, just the photo real tech applied to the paint, not just the heads, the whole figure. Ig88 also now has a gold glow

Found the newest wave of the Black Series at an unlikely place - FYE. Grabbed only Obi-Wan, as I don't know the other characters, since I only watch the movies. They're $24.99 there, but I have Backstage Pass, so I saved 10%. Still higher than regular retail, but considering I never saw Mace Windu at retail, I figured I better get it. I also bought the Anakin Skywalker Archive figure at Target. Just looking for Darth Maul now.

BigBad is processing the 2nd wave of Archive figures got the notification for Maul. That might be one of my last black series purchases for a while.

I saw the entire Obi-wan wave today at Target. I have Ezra and Chopper ordered through Walmart. So I’ll just wait for those to save a couple bucks. I really liked the Obi-wan. I’ll probably end up picking it up. It felt like buying it would have totally ended the possibility that I ever pick up those anniversary figures. I wasn’t ready to close that door today.

I picked up Mace the other day at Walmart Sunday and I picked up Obi-Wan today at Target.

I caught an unopened Obi-Wan case at Target. The guy stocking toys was going to take it back to the stockroom because they have so many old figures on the pegs. The same happened with the Windu wave. I'm surprised they're getting anything new because I thought the general rule was no new figures until the inventory goes down.

Don't you dare put the new stuff that people actually want and/or need out until the figures that haven't moved for over a year and we won't clearance out finally sell.

I went back today and noticed there was space for at least four new figures just by pushing back some of the older ones that were on the pegs. They also have 3.75" figures hanging on the 6" Vintage peg. Probably why I haven't seen the latest of that wave.

Besides the 6 inch Boba Fett SDCC exclusive, what else will be released from the Black Series line?
