Yes they are the action clix figs and yes I too got them for $1.24. I looked at my receipt after seeing your post. So I made a mistake in my first post about these.

$1.24 works out to be the 75% discount that is the max for Target. Originally this was free when pre-ordering, and then I guess they tried to sell off the others at $4.99 afterwards. This is too bad. If I'd have known I could have got teh ActionClix now, I'd have bought my game from somewhere else.

Well, at least now I can finally take off card those two figs.

WM Haul:
Speed Racer Mach 5 & Speed Racer figure - the $10 sawblade-shooting one. It's not very good, the car is ok but a little plain, and the figure has decent articulation, but he's like twice as big as he should be so it's a Speed Racer go-kart.

Saga Legends ROTS Clone Trooper (clean) - it had the mail in promo thing, and I didn't have ANY of the totally clean versions so I figured what the heck.

I haven't quite memorized them yet (I've only listened to it once but I knew several of the songs already). It was really damn good, though. My head exploded around four times due to the sheer awesomeness, which isn't quite as many times as it did during A Night at the Opera, but still pretty swell.

Now I need to go through and take off all the "1991 Bonus Remixes" from the album tracklists in iTunes since the redo of Dragon Attack is almost as bad as the redo of Seven Seas of Rhye from Queen II.

Comic Packs:
1X Mouse/Basso
2X Commando/Super Battle Droid
3X Luke/Shan

(Still need two more Commandos)

10X SA 501st troopers. Whew got those all in one fell swoop. Originally I was going to get 40 of them, but I have approx 70 other 501st between the different previous releases, so with these 10 SA version I've got around 80. That's good enough for my needs I think. I think I've really kicked my army building habits.

While I do look to get 40 Kashyyyk troopers, I'm just not in a panic about it now like I would have been in the past. I only have 2 of those now, but with the lull, I hope to catch up on them in the next 4 months. So with exception to that one, I truly am down to buying just squads of troopers! Whoo-hoo. Money SAVED for a change.

03-05-2008, 09:38 AM
I said essentially the same thing in another thread, but you are the only person I know who says, "I'm not really building armies anymore. I just need 40 Kashyyyk Troopers. I'm saving so much money this year!" lol

Well, I'm saving money in this respect, on average I bought 20 or 40 of a specific type of trooper. I've long maintained that the Kashyyyk trooper was going to be my last big army builder, so I don't count that one. Looking at what is out there though, I am saving money by not building big.

For example:
SA 501st (was planning on 40 before downsizing-got 10 and I'm done. So I save approx $210 on that figure alone).
EVO trooper (TFU) would have bought 20, now only getting 5. Saving approx $105.
Jump Trooper (TFU) would have bought 20, now only getting 5. Saving approx $105.

So on those three examples alone I've saved myseld $420...hmm $420, coincidence, heh heh. J/K

Anyway, take this example further:
Shadow Stormtrooper: Was going to get 10, only going to get 2 (saving $56)
Commander Neyo: was going to get 20, now will get only 6 (saving $98)
Covert Ops Clone Trooper: was going to get 5, now only 2 (saving $21)
Utapau Shadow Trooper: was going to get 5, now only 2 (saving $21)

So with those 5 I'm saving an additional $196. Add that to above and that's $616 saved.

Now that you know the fuller picture you can understand where I'm coming from when I say I'm saving. As I said above, I didn't count the Kashyyyk trooper in this because I knew I was going to army build that one.

I saw these two sets at Wal-Mart with the Max Rebo band, and the other with the dancers. There were 5 figures in each set, and the sticker on the box said "Wal-mart exclusive". They retailed for about $25 each. I passed on them for two reasons 1) repacked figures and 2) the Max Rebo band box had some damage.

Greivous Starfighter
Po Nudo

Transformers:
"Big Daddy"-Wal*Mart exclsuive
Overcast-This didn't ring up at first and the lady at WM claimed it was a recall toy and couldn't sell it too me. So I just went back to the aisle, got another one-with another deluxe fig, I think Brawl. I rang up the brawl at the self-checkout aisle, but put the Overcast fig in my bag. Problem solved. (Anyone think I was wrong to do that?)
Stockade
I did see Divebomb and Jolt, but didn't get either. I'll pass on Divebomb, but will eventually get Jolt. I'd like to see Grindcore in person to decide if I want him. Can't wait to find a Stealth Bumblebee! (If anyone see that, please get it for me, if you're not getting it for yourself-thanks to anyone who can help)

Halo3:
Brute Chieftain
Jackal
Spartan (Red) Mark VI
Ghost
Warthog
Brute Chopper
I like those vehicles, I think they'll fit with the HaloClix figs nicely and I may get around to doing a custom with them.

won from eBay:
Target CLONE won for $6.52
AOTC Clone won for $2.02 (no weapons included)
Total shipping for both is $3 since I won them from the same seller. So total was $11.54. Not bad considering the initial cost of the Target trooper ($12.99 IIRC)

That's it for now. Big enough haul.

Sal, I'm waiting until Transformers Animated toys hit before buying TF's again but I'll help you look for the Black Bumblebee.

I have a total of 8 SA 501st's and I think I'll stop at 10. Now if only I could find 6 more Kashykk Troopers to make a total of 10 for those. I think the only other army builder I'll be amassing this year will be the Animated Clones.

Cool. I was fortunate enough to get 10 SA 501st already and I think I'm done with those. I still need MANY Kashyyyk troopers though. Saw f-b, when you're done getting what you want out of those Kashyyyk trooper, could you possibly help me out in getting them? No worries if you can't.

And thanks for keeping your peeps out for the stealth Bumblebee.

They're machines and therefore "race" does not apply to them :p

Kal, don't worry about it, Chux posts the exact same thing whenever anyone talks about the "all clean" sandtrooper variant.

Sal, sure I can help you with Kashykk Troopers once I reach my goal of 6 more. I haven't actually seen any at retail as the 4 that I have came/will come from HTS.

Chux, you just watch...I'm going to go into the current thread about the band with a lead vocalist/guitarist named Jack and drummer named Meg and drop the racist card on all of you. :p :ninja: :twisted:

I hear ya on that. The 3 I have are from the same source-soon to be 4.

I wish those troops would have been in a battle pack. It's likely they still will, but I'd imagine the set to be Yoda, Gree, three Kashyyyk troopers. For $20 it would be decent enough even though I wouldn't need the extra Yodas or Grees.

I'm crossing my fingers for that one as it seems to be a no brainer.

That's because Bruins and their fans (and it should be the same for Tarheels as well) have their eyes set on a bigger prize. Also, I figure that if they don't advance very far into the tournament, I won't want to wear a measly Pac-10 champs shirt. I imagine that should they go far enough to face Duke, you'll be pulling for them as well :p

Cactus Jack figure for a friend
Mick Foley autograph on said figure
Saga Obi-Wan (gift)
G.Heroes 4-LOM & Zuckuss (gift)
moderate swag (saturday)
a correct SW trivia answer which netted me a spin on the Wizard Wheel of Doom that landed on "advice", which I might add I did not get, but I did get 4 comics.
Angus Oblong SW-themed magnet, which I got him to sign
Angus Oblong Trek-themed print, also got him to sign
a surprisingly good time at the showLogitech PS2 headset (to replace the other one that broke, POS)

TAC wave 2:
Juno Eclipse - not as bad a figure as I expected, but head is too big, face isn't so great.
Maris Brood - interesting, better than I expected, didn't realize she was a Zabrak. No knee articulation does hurt, but ankles allow for a few good poses. I like her mid-torso articulation, it's right under her bust line which allows the exposed midriff to look natural while still allowing for a fairly realistic range of motion out of a standard swivel. Tonfa lightsabers are alright, wish they had included "off" versions but she couldn't put them anywhere anyway.
Shadow Guard - figure is exactly what I expected since it's a black repaint of the ROTS guard (though I did forget he has swivel elbows, they should have changed it here). Saber pike is kinda cool.
Battle Damaged Vader - pretty good, some issues but I think it's nifty. Yeah, his exposed foot is big, and his helmet doesn't line up with his eyes (this is not really an error, it's just the limitations of the toy, the real helmet slumps down to align), but the sculpting is otherwise slick, the damage cool, the removable parts decent, and the tattered cloak is well done and quite big. All this and he's got good articulation and paint.
Imperial Evo Trooper - alright, not quite great. The head sculpt seems more like the McQuarrie Trooper than the Stormtrooper design it's supposed to be. There's not enough weathering (above the knees) which hurts a lot IMO. Articulation is good though.
Imperial Jump Trooper - a little better than the Evo, but still not weathered enough above the knees. Not including a jetpack was a huge blunder though.
Rahm Kota - better than I expected. Although his shoulder armor restricts some of the arm movement, he's still got a lot going on. His chest armor is removable, his bandolier holster is removable, and he's got good sculpting and paint. The holster is a cheat though, he's got no deactivated saber so they designed it to hold the activated lightsaber blade and just the top of the hilt, the rest of the hilt sticks out over his shoulder, but the blade remains fairly well hidden in his cloth elements - he shouldn't get away with this as well as he does really, though I wish they had included a deactivated saber hilt to go inside.

How many headsets does that make for you now, JT?4 - the Plantronics USB headset that I already had and doesn't work with the PS2. The original Playstation Logitech headset which died. Then I bought an off-brand one to replace it which didn't work and was made of pure suck. And finally this new one which is missing volume and mute features of the previous Logitech but is the only one I could find in stores.

Latest Titanium Series wave from HTS:

Rogue Shadow flat-out sucks. This is a lame entry, minimal detail, overly fat, moving parts are uninspired. A real loser, expect this sucker to pegwarm.

Anakin's Podracer is very good, more metal than expected, has a movable part on each engine (slide the slider and both air brakes on the side open), looks good. Middle plastic is floppy though, and the wheels on the underside are crappy, but this one works.

Mon Cal Cruiser seems to be the Liberty. Weird tail color and underside color are just distractions. It's an ok ship and in scale to the Titanium ISD, but not very interesting on its own.

Luke's X-wing is amazing, an all-new version that has opening wings, landing gear, and an opening cockpit. They really nailed it with this one, the only flaws are that the cannons aren't glued on, and the wings don't lock centered when closed (a flaw many X-wing toys have).
