Pre ordered a set of these on SAF. Wish they'd knock the retro sticker on the head.

Just open them, voila, no more sticker issue

By pure luck I managed to order a Trapper Wolf on Pulse yesterday evening. Collecting is becoming far too stressful!!??

It's great for Hasbro and the retailers as they rarely have dead stock but, and this is probably quite old fashioned, I'd like to be able to walk into a store and pick something that took my fancy, I have preordered a few bits but I'd probably buy more if I could actually pick it up on random trips to shops

I need help! (not the first time that's been said! )

In case anyone hasn't spotted my post in the 'Most Wanted' thread (https://starwarsforum.co.uk/threads/the-earth-action-figure-stands.43266/), I am trying to get hold of some of the grey modern Star Wars action figure stands made by 'The Earth Collectible Toy Mall'. I need hundreds of them, but any quantity will be considered! Sadly, the Mall no longer seems to sell them .

These are the ones I'm after:

Thank you.

Jeremy

a sneaky order that seems to have appeared with little or no awareness: Amazon product ASIN B09K1TT386

 

[MrGudz]

I.D Toys have got a pre order in for these but they'll be import stock. No idea if Amazon U.K will be getting these.

[monkey_roo]

All this weeks pre-orders are up: https://www.indemandtoys.co.uk/product-category/star-wars/

I have to say (not that i am not buying them) - but modern collecting is now almost all about click and buy and if you're not quick enough it's off to evilbay down the road - the thrill of the hunt and finding gems in shops has all but gone... Anyway like i say I'm still clicking and buying... for now

 

[monkey_roo]

OK this one is odd but lovely looking and seems only on Amazon.com -

STAR WARS MICRO GALAXY SQUADRON Assault Class Millennium Falcon - 7-Inch Vehicle with 1-Inch Han Solo, Chewbacca, Princess Leia and OBI-Wan Kenobi Micro Figures

Amazon product ASIN B09PMPQDFZ
Also the new retro wave up everywhere as normal

Theses do look very nice.

 

[monkey_roo]

Anyone else really struggling to pre-order off In Demand tonight?
Erroring out all over the place...

WOW - lots of fails and now out of stock - modern collecting is no fun at all sometimes.

Last update - for those that missed the Obi Wan 3 pack - Amazon.com is selling and will ship to the UK for 10 buck: Amazon product ASIN B09SBL687Z

 

[MrGudz]

Amazon product ASIN B0B46SY68R
Available on Amazon U.K now at the slightly cheaper price than I.D.

 

[monkey_roo]

Latest pre-orders are up
OMG - look at the price on the Slave 1.... £234..... was expecting maybe £140 - but that is a lot of cash for a repaint....

 

[lejackal]

I know the cost of energy, materials, fuel etc has all gone up but Hasbro really are tearing the arse out of it. Take that Slave 1, there's not even any new tooling costs

 

[monkey_roo]

Totally - I have no idea how they can justify that price - it's only 100 less than the Haslab Razor Quest - which was all new.
Also - how does the Black Series credit collection wave have 5 figures at 3 different price points, when there is nothing majorly different size wise between them - £50 for the Dark Trooper is insane...

I ordered the retro and 3 TVC figures - the Luke Mando looks amazing - but sadly i can see the end of the line collecting wise here with these prices - or a need to really get selective.

 

[MrGudz]

Hasbro are really taking the piss out of their collector market now. Two of the BS series on Pulse are £35!!! I know they're exclusives but that is ridiculous….

 

[monkey_roo]

Seems to be a price drop across the board for the Slave 1 now - 198 - https://www.indemandtoys.co.uk/prod...ection-book-of-boba-fett-boba-fetts-starship/
