I saw a Yoda this morning at K-Mart in Banning, so that's another one I can say "it does exist" about.

Four days? Really, no one's finding anything?

If anyone considers the Palm Springs area to be part of the greater LA area, I found one each of Kup and Scourge at TRU in Palm Desert, and several of the wave 2 (I think) cartoony DC figure 2-packs across the street at Target. I also saw what I think were new Galactic Heroes at Wal-Mart in Beaumont. The only one that stood out to me as definitely being one I hadn't seen before were Quinlan Vos & too-young Barriss Offee.

(Really, did anyone read The Approaching Storm or at least consider the age of Nalini Krishan in 2002? Yeesh. Older than Anakin, folks. The cartoon is a retcon. A retcon, say I!)

[Tycho]

Chux, I'm retconning in my own mind to make it fit: Bariss was always younger than Anakin, but since he started his training 9 years late, she was more advanced and seemed more mature than he did. On top of that, Obi-Wan pushed for his becoming a Knight (in the Gennedy cartoon) early, because of the war. I take it, Luminara was much more conservative with her padawan.

But yeah, that's a sloppy fix considering how you do point out what is a big goof.

Found all of CW Wave 10 except Cmdr Wolfe at Super WM in Valencia. The Aqua Droid is very cool. A must have!

[Jango Speck]

Saw a lone vintage Ackbar at Burbank Target last night. I was very tempted since the figure looks so nice, but the card was kind of jacked. If any of you guys have a mint one, I might break my 2 year Hasbro retirement just for that one. "It's a trap!"

sorry for the lateness (got back early this am & knocked out):

Fox hills/CC Target - SW: 1 senate guard (which i picked up); no other wave 4 or beyond. Some wave 3 commandos, CW -- xanadu blood ship, Mando 4 pack, 2 or 3 Waxer/droid packs.

TF: cool dlx stuff - at least 5 RTS Tracks, a couple rts BB w/jetski, 1 RTS Prime. Banzaitron & prime voyagers too. Loved the tracks, but want a G1 version.

GI Joe -- newest Duke figure

Also went to CC and rodeo Targets - nothing great. CC/jefferson target had a 4 or 5 more of those RTS BBs/w jetski. Pretty cool.
CC TRU - nothing good.

Wonder who else is in CW wave 10? hafta look. Quick reminder - you have till the end of the month to mail away for TVC rocket firing Fett. I'm gonna send in for another. Hopefully get a clean card.
