Picked up a few wave 2's from Smythes just now. I don't think these are gonna be on the shelves too long as they are awesome, colourful, detailed for a change compared to the drab looking shitty modern cheap looking figs weve had to put up with in the past :lol:
I especially love the PZ-4C0 droid and the cards on the Inquisitor and Guavian Enforcer look great on display.
I'd grab thses quick if anyone is thinking of getting some in for xmas as, compared to other modern figs, i think when TFA comes out these are gonna be like rocking horse **** pretty much like the wave 1 Kylo and Phasma are now.

Very nice pickups mate, they do look the part don't they, i saw a couple of the new wave at TRU but didn't pick them up, i'm having trouble with finding space for them all, maybe i'll get a few of them.

 

[Cazza]

They are great! Personal favourite is Sarco Plank- awesome!

Well i managed to pick up a modern grail item for me, the 30th anniversary coin album, complete with all 60 coins, i had started with the basic album and managed to pick up 12 coins, but i never expected to get the whole collection together, i paid a wodge of cash for it, but glad to have the set

anyone after the album with the 12 coins let me know, selling it on now

 

[chiffy]

Beautiful mate. Not my kinda thing but a gorgeous piece all the same

 

[grinchy]

Cheers mate, i know its not for everyone, but yeah i like it, never thought i'd pick one up complete, so thats the cool factor for me, i'm sure theres tons of them out there, but just glad to have one

Went to tru today, they had a few new figures in, picked up this guy Poe dameron, looks a decent figure though the headsculpt isn't the greatest.

Chiffy - wave two does look bloody good mate, I swore I wasn't going to buy anyone in a pathetic protest at the rip off UK prices but they do look nice. Can see me cracking when I see them in a shop!

Grinchy - really chuffed you've got the completed anniversary coin set, looks amazing and very collectible, all the better as it's something you've been after for a while.

Nice pick up with latest 6" - he does look a bit Parkerish from Thunderbirds

 

[grinchy]

Parker, thats who he looks like,
Cheers mate, i haven't recieved it yet, should be here soon, i'm really happy to have the set

 

[db94]

This arrived yesterday - bought for my daughter but when I see it I quite fancy one to keep boxed!

If she decides to open it I'll post up pictures so everyone can see how bad the bendy nose cone/cannons are

 

[grinchy]

looks great in the box mate, yeah i've seen a few of them with warped cannons, might be able to straighten them with hot water not sure though, great pickup anyway

Ginchy, do you realise that there are 80 silver coins plus 15 gold and 1 black coin in the set?

 

[grinchy]

Hey bud, yeah i figured there was room for more, it arrived on saturday, i have a few of the extras allready, but the main set of sixty is done thats what i'm most happy with,

 

[Carl Waterworth]

Nice one mate! good luck in getting the rest of them!
I managed to get them all and had a custom built frame for them. 8)
