Well, when it comes to the final wave of vintage figures, I'm diggin' the Emperor's Royal Guard and Ahsoka. I really want to pre-order them, but BBTS has yet to get them.
Pruneface isn't in the Bespin Leia wave. That's the Lost Line wave with the variant cardbacks. And yeah, the Sandtrooper is always a nice pick up, made even better with the first ever 3 3/4" scale blaster with folding stock. The wave is 1 for each film: Jar Jar, Clonetrooper Lt., Shocktrooper, Sandtrooper, Bespin Leia & Final Duel Vader. 2 per case, 1 of each card back design.
I found the wave with Bespin Leia and Co. at Walmart today. There was a whopping ONE case put out (and this time there were NO Phantom Menace figures clogging the shelves, so it's not like there was no room). Had everyone there except prune face. I had Leia and a Sand trooper in hand for a long time before I though about how I was about to be $20 poorer on figures that I already own a different version of. Don't get me wrong, they looked great, but I left them for someone else. Maybe I'll regret that later...
It reminds me of the Transformers somebody out there thinks that Bumblebee is the best seller so they clog the cases with it and then it clogs the pegs
In the Star wars version its the prequel figures
I'm sorry people still like the origional characters and if they want prequel stuff go for the Clone wars figures
Wait a minute.Malgus,Star Killer, and Shae Vizla and Nom Anor are the ones that don't last long.I do agree abou the Prequal trilogy figures no lsating long but Expanded Universe is a different story.
Yep..You see its the crap new trilogy figures that waste space on the pegs right now
I bought this wave off Amazon.. which was where I got the previous few waves of figures from, except for Aayla, since they are no where to be found. Those I could justify paying a bit higher on to save on gas money hunting phantom (ha..ha..) figures, but this last wave I just REALLY want.
I finally picked up the Vintage Bespin Han Solo figure off Amazon cause I finally gave up on ever finding it at retail.

Until I see something like maybe figures I want like Grand Moff Tarkin but i'm so tired of the figures of the new trilogy.
So I guess you guys are done with collecting then?
I just can't bring myself to spending $10 on figures any more.
Same here
They would have to be special for me to pick up
Yeah, I third this.
I'm also writing off 6" figures at $20 +, all done with those , too.
For SW I'm gonna fucus on finishing my POTF2 collection, then call it all good for this particular brand. I don't have many left to go, and most can be found at $5 or less. You know, what a 3 3/4" figure SHOULD cost.
