Awesome ACBA pic, Haggar! Way to be creative! Sorry to hear about your Boba Fett though.

Well it looks like that eBay seller who posted the in-hand pictures of the scruffy early production factory reject Bespin Luke + Stormtrooper has posted some pictures of Obi-Wan. news.toyark.com/2013/12/10/black-series-6-inch-obi-wan-hand-images-109492Its not the prettiest thing, but it is a factory reject/early production figure, so I expect a much cleaner, better version of Obi-Wan when the figures are officially released. |

I saw 4 cases of series 2 today at TRU I hope they stock Series 3 like this and it doesn't suffer from the "after Christmas grinding halt" that most stores suffer from with stocking toys following the Holidays bc of inventory and whatnot. Because I want to buy like 15 stormtroopers, lol. |

Hollow the heads or sand the pegs of the stormtroopers down? I would think sanding the peg would be easier, but I may be wrong. |

Has anybody come up with a solution to fix Boba Fett's stiff pouches? I was thinking about using an exacto knife to cut a slice in the back of them so they could have a "joint" to bend.. or maybe cut them off entirely and put them on the back of his belt.
I've never customized figure before so I'm open to any ideas! haha

Amazon has some of the 6" figs on crazy sales again. I snagged Slave Leia for $13.xx and another Greedo for $9.xx. Amazon's prices are the main thing keeping me in the line at this point.

It could have rivaled Han as the best figure in the line for me but he drops to 3rd behind Han and the Sandtrooper because of the hindered articulation. That series 3 Stormtrooper looks great. |

When I was at Target the other day they had a ton of everybody from series one and two but not a single Bobba Fett. Fortunately I already got him at Barnes and Noble a few weeks prior. It was an extra $5, but I think it was worth it since he is apparently almost impossible to find.

I've seen Boba Fett 4 or 5 times locally. Unless because of the holidays I expect to see him become easy to find (just like series 1 Sandtrooper became after the initial month at retail)

On Amazon, some of the 6" figures are anywhere from 3-10 dollars cheaper. Super saver free shipping on orders over 35 bucks, too.

I was going to try shaving down the peg first. When you do it, let me know how you do it and how it works out. I was thinking I would hollow out the heads more to put on the pegs, that way I can swap the heads and the helmets, rather than shave the peg and hollow out the helmets. Not sure what I want to do yet. |

I was thinking the other way this way if they release better looking versions of them in Stormtrooper disguise or I screw it up I can put them back on Han's & Luke's bodies and glue the Stormtroopers head back on and just use the Troopers as extra army builder display figures. |
