Whatcha got?


Admittedly, it's a bit of a hard line to collect for me- shelf space aside, my Targets rarely seem to get new stock, and when they do, it's only ever a common. With a few exceptions, it'll also probably end up pegwarming for the longest time, which I'm sure plays a part in the store ordering more. Heck, I just now started seeing ships other than Anakin's Naboo starfighter on the pegs for the first time in probably a year or so. No WalMarts convenient enough to get to, but when I'm able to visit one elsewhere, I usually have luck there.

That said, I've cherry-picking the line for a while (unfortunately most of my wants are the hard to find ones like the Jedi starfighters). Just ordered the Grievous and Obi-Wan 2 pack for store pickup at Target. Been after both Grievous releases for a while to no avail, so I'm glad they finally got around to re-releasing him. Just gotta find me that wheelbike for a decent price and I'll be happy as a clam.
 
I go into a target maybe once every six months, and that happened the other day and I saw they had one of Kylo Ren's TIE Fighters. I didn't even know that was getting made!

I only have Andor's U-Wing and man, every single day I see an ad for these and want to get a few more. The one that really stays on my radar I haven't pursued is the crew of the Ghost.
 
I've been trying not to go too heavy into this line, then I'm finding the second blue U-Wing at Target for crazy clearance prices. Same with the Naboo fighter and Maul's Sith Infiltrator. Grabbed the AT-TE on a really good deal as well.

I did recently pick up the E-Wing from Amazon and it's very nice — I like it a touch better than the recent Hot Wheels release. I almost picked up the V-19 Torrent at Target on Friday but held off for another day. It looks good.

I can't wait for the ARC-170. Been a big fan of that ship since Revenge of the Sith. I was always drawn to this image in the art book released with the movie.

The Ghost is really nice, I will say. I tracked it and both Phantoms down (even managed to snag Hera's X-Wing, the only time I've found a rare in the wild), and I really do love them all, but I don't know if I'll end up keeping them. The larger ships are tricky with how much room they take up. I still do find myself drawn to the Tartakovsky Clone Wars deco gunship, though; it calls to me like the Green Goblin mask.
 
What is the newest Series showing up at retail? I know Series 8 is out, but is Series 9? Also, has anything been revealed much beyond Series 9? I got out of the loop on this line for a bit around Series 6 or 7 and am jumping back in and catching up. So, I need knowledge.
 
That Ghost set is discounted 25% on Amazon today. Been sitting in and out of my cart for like six months so I caved and picked it up. I know is's over a foot long, but four ships for that price felt worth it. They also have the Bad Batch ship at 35% off.
 
I picked up a couple of these recently. I got the "Armada" Luke's Snowspeeder and Lt. Callahan's E Wing. I already had Luke's Snowspeeder from Series 2, but it's awesome. So, why not have another.

The E Wing from Ahsoka is really cool though. I love these little ships. Since we can't get most ships for Black series due to size, I just like getting these to have ship representation.
 
I picked up the Marauder super discounted and wish it came with the rest of the Bad Batch but otherwise it's a very cool little ship. I'm debating WHICH X-Wing I want, and man that Falcon for under 50 bucks is so tempting...
 
After watching and loving Andor, I'm kinda tempted to pick up the U-Wing with Cassian, K2, and Jyn. It's one that really grew on me. Of course, it littered the shelves before, and now I can't find one in person anywhere.

It's pretty cheap on Amazon, actually, and was the first in this line I picked up. It's really fun. Plus: TINY K2SO!
 
I picked up Mace Windus Jedi Interceptor and Saesee Tiin's Jedi Starfighter today. Both of them are really nice. I do love Jedi ships the most though. Yesterday I picked up the TIE Striker from Rogue One, and I really liked it too. I was psyched to get it, after watching Andor and Rogue One over the last week.

I was totally in the mood for anything from Andor/Rogue One
 
I bought more Micros. I went in a Wal-Mart, and they had Kylo Ren's TIE Silencer. Then, I went to Target (that is supposedly safe and secure and will NOT be sliding off the edge of a hill into oncoming traffic) and I got the Grievous Final Battle Pack with Grievous' ship and Kenobi's Jedi ship.

I'm so happy to have Grievous' ship. I never saw the Rare/Chase version. So, I'm glad they are letting stuff out in packs or the Armada releases that give us another chance at Rare and Chase figures. I wish they'd Armada the shit out of Antoc Merrick's X-Wing
 
I had no idea Merrick's fighter was so rare and now I'm bummed - he's one of my favorite tertiary characters.

I'm debating picking up the Falcon and regretting not getting into the line early enough to get that combo set they released a while back.
