I've got my 'SWFUK-reaction-to-non-vintage-items' bingo card at the ready.

Its ultra cool, and makes me excited for the film.. end of.

I'm not into the modern stuff, but my lad has cornered me into taking him to Warrington TRU tonight for the midnight madness as he wants one of these BB8 s :roll:

Dads Taxi again :roll:

 

[Mr-shifter]

So, I saw all the other **** that's being sold tonight. Super armour figures and build your own barbeque accessories and it all reminded me of why I got rid of 220+ modern figures and stuck to vintage.

Then i saw this and remembered why I love Star Wars. The worst part of it is I don't have £130 at the moment but the Mrs now knows what to buy me for Christmas.

 

[theforceuk]

Very cool and not a bad price really. I'm not going to open mine.

 

[edd_jedi]

At least this stands a chance of one day becoming collectable, not many people are going to be able to resist opening the box :lol:

 

[robpmarsh]

Info comes a day too late....just bought some vintage items.

Always next month though

 

[Dfran8]

I'm getting one for sure. Only don't know when and where. Tonight perhaps?

 

[elcroz]

He's so damned cute! I want one!!

Great minds think alike!

:shock: :shock: :shock: That's ****ing amazing! £10 in Tescos? Could be this years must-have toy for Christmas :idea:

 

[Lom]

I just mentioned to beloved that I need one of these in my life and she has corrected me by saying that I couldn't possibly NEED a toy.

She is of course, wrong.

 

[Tenebrous]

TOY?!?!?!?! To quote the advert " this is the droid your looking for"

Well in fairness I'm not going to be using it to make the would a safer place or cure disease and stop hunger... More likely to use it to entertain me and the boy and freak the neighbours cat out.

 

[Mr-shifter]

Nah, this ****ers coming straight out the box when I get mine. It's too cool not to use.

 

[Andyclarke]

Might nip to the Disney Store at lunchtime tomorrow. What do you think my chances of a landing one?

Going off all of the hype, I think they will be thin on the ground, and being flipped for daft prices on ebay

So tomorrow in the Disney store you may be Donald Ducked :?

My thoughts exactly. Might head out at 11:00 and have a look.

Too right! 8)

Get in!!! Just showed the wife the advert, and she went "eeee, that's really good"
Translation.....get yourself one as quickly as possible, and feel free to lie about how much it was....and if I get mad or won't talk for a bit, it'll be jealousy, not fury!
