Colin, those TVC ships are VERY cool indeed. I picked up a Y-Wing when they were out but couldn't justify anymore. Think the Y-Wing had been knocked down to a silly price of 25 quid or something so couldn't say no.

Trilogy Collector, that is a very nice display indeed. Looks like those shelves were made to measure for them.

I brought back a couple of Elite Series figures from the US yesterday. The palaver they caused at security on the US side :shock: They didn't like the fact that action figures were made out of metal. Humourless morons. Pulled everything out of my very well packed hand luggage including a trilogo Squidhead MOC and some Sigma stuff, left it spread around and then said "do you want to repack it?". Damn right I did. Have some muppet stuff it back in? I think not. Sadly the Squiddie picked up some bubble dents as did my POTJ FX-7 MOC which I'd picked up for my FX-7 focus. All had been very nicely packed, too. Grrrrr.

Great display trilogy collector, they all look cool in the cabinet, and nice score rob, hope you get the prototype for a good price also
Went to the Disney store today and snagged the last R2 they had, no sign of threepio but I think I prefer him without the red arm anyway, on the way home popped into Tesco and the had buy one get one free on the 12 inch figures at 13 quid, thought that was a good price so snagged finn and rey

A couple of great pick ups there Adam nice one.. 8)

My local Asda have had around 7 different Rogue One figures on their pegs for the last week or so everytime I pop in on the way to work I try and buy a couple but their system won't sell them....keeps saying 'not to be sold before the 1st October' I keep mention this to the assistant and they keep taking them off the shelf but the next day they are back on the shelves again :roll: ...

I popped in again this morning for my usual paper and they were there again on the shelves ......I mentioned it again the the assistant and she started to take them off the pegs again....A few days ago I tried to get the floor manager to sell them but not as the figures but under something different....he tried but their system just wouldn't have it.....

Adam how did your Asda manage to bypass this ?

I went through the self checkout and when it flagged up 'set item aside...' the lady came over and scanned her badge....
It then came up with the 'Do not sell until 1st Oct' message but when she clicked 'Okay' it still added the money to the bill but with no item description...
So she just said carry on with it and let me pay and take them....
They also went through at £1 less than they were advertised on shelf so that was a bonus too! :D

Popped into local Disney Store and bought these:

TBH they are the only 2 decent Elite Series in the wave....facial models are still poor and they've even made the Death Trooper look bad!

My little haul from Rogue Friday...

Managed to pick up an Elite Series C2-B5 droid mispackaged/sealed with his head facing the wrong way :D
The question is; to open or not to open???

And as I was in the first 50 customers in the Disney store I was given this lovely little set of trading cards.
They even have today's date on the back!

I only went in to TRU today for the four Rogue one 3.75" figures, but decided to buy all seven. I think the packaging art looks great for this range. Also got one of the trade boxes which are excellent to store them in.

Some great pick ups guys - well done on a successful Force Friday

I got the one thing I wanted, the new Stormie figure. That thing is perfect, great sculpt especially the helmet, it's just so similar to the original vintage, I love it so bought two.

My daughter on the other hand went a bit ff crazy and bought lots of things - we've spent the night unboxing quite a bit of it and will get it on display tomorrow
