Ouch, hate it when just simple shotty putting items in boxes results in damage. Glad most of it came through ok. I don't think anything vintage got hurt did it? Not that it won't burn you on all your items, but I absolutely go bonkers when vintage carded stuff gets ruined.

Well, the card of the Tank Driver fortunately only got "curved", not bent! And the card of the Range Trooper came with two minor dents along the edges...still okay for 10 GBP...I'm happy especially because those go between 15-22€ here at the moment...

The Entertainer listed new items, some of which are 3 more vehicles of TLJ!

I still shake my head about the MRSP. Nobody here in Germany was willing to pay 69,99€ for Kylo Ren's ship. And apparently it was the same in the United Kingdom...

Also the TBS (former exclusive) Imperial Stormtrooper for a mere of 14.99 GBP and other 4 & 6 inch Black Series figures starting at 3.75 GBP are still available!






Also two of the more sought after SOLO 2-Packs are BACK IN STOCK!






I ordered two of each of these 2-Packs just for the accessories...and the figures are okay as well - good custom fodder...

For all in the UK who missed the SOLO Force Link Wave - The Entertainer got them for 6 GBP!

Here's Rio Durant: https://www.thetoyshop.com/action-toys-figures/action-figures/Star-Wars-Force-Link-2-0-Figure---Rio-Durant/p/533081_E1192

Or all Star Wars items: https://www.thetoyshop.com/brands/star-wars


UPDATE: They had the entire wave. Han as Mimban Trooper and the Mimban Stormtrooper are both out of stock, but coming back. I requested a stock alert this morning, received a notification at 1 pm, 8 minutes later, Mimban Han is sold out, again...wow.

It gives me a hard time to see that some TVC figures, that we had waited for decades to get done from Hasbro, are now sold for less than 5POA figures back in the days.
The Entertainer has all the good stuff up to 75% off for you guys in the UK.

I got nothing. I can't explain some of this nonsense.

You mean you haven't gotten any of those TVC figures, yet? I guess it has to do with the case assortments by Hasbro that make no sense to me.
I mean Bib Fortuna, Lobot and that blue man are all amazing figures. I bite my tongue that I overpaid for them from TungHori and they came with some obvious errors. TungHori takes 15 bucks for factory rejects now. Prices fly now even on the black market. And these discounts are quite a contrast to that insane price development.
Can you believe that the Speeder Bike sold right through once the pre-order went live on Hasbro Pulse Europe? And its price tag is 54.99€ while Pre Vizla is 39.99€! This hobby has become what Sideshow used to be a decade ago.

Yep. You are correct Philipp. It does make one wonder about the future of this.

I know I just get ones I really, really like now. And even then, some like that new overpriced Fett I just forget about.

It is and the parcel almost got lost as the delivery service just dropped it on the sidewalk although the entrance in on the back of the building. It was raining so the box was pretty soaked up. Fortunately the figures were still okay. It's funny that the cards inside the extra box are more warped than the other figures that were just tossed in the big box, which was in the rain.

I'm glad it wasn't stolen and am very happy about the Bespin Guards. Val is going to become some female Rebel Sharpshooters from Battlefront II. I really admire your latest kit-bash using Val's body, Jeff!
