Good news on this Thursday night, Tamer! It's good to know that Hasbropulse is able to ship their stuff in excellent condition! The Endor Set and the Armorer are amazing sets and I'm really glad you got them. Also no bent cardpacks for the GONKs - if they're "only" slightly curved, I'm positive that you can straighten them. Congrats to so much good stuff! It's a pity that Hasbro just won't meet demand when it comes to Convention Exclusives...I think I won't be able to find both sets for the MRSP.

I forgot to send pics so here they are recuperating



And yes the exclusives seem to be so hard to get. I wish I could just ignore them sometimes, but they always make the exclusives cooler with more stuff, etc. to make folks go nuts for em.

No worries. Well, your Power Droids look good as far as I can see. So does your Battlefront book! Is that another concept art book?

Not sure. I will have to go look. That is my overflow area for my books. I have a big bookcase downstairs, but I have it filled up. I really need to go through some of my stuff.

Just saw it's the Battlefront novel which RC-1136 just shared on here yesterday as well!
While looking for an artbook of Battlefront on Amazon I found out that this novel among other Star Wars books are available as audiobook for FREE with an audible trial:

Darth More thanks for that news. I will go share it.

That is a good book.

Kinda crazy it is the same one I have that I use to stack for my warped cards.

Thanks Tamer! I decided to buy a few more 6 inch figures. I'm glad they become available loose in higher quantities on the secondary market. As a loose collector, this is the time I was looking forward to:

- Mando, off-world Jawa, carbon Boba, carbon Stormtrooper: 52,87€ (~$60)
- Purge Trooper, Sith Sister, Kal Cestis: 80€ (~$90) shipped (the seller included some custom fodder for 3.75" Ewoks as well)

I might have to find that silver Stormy. I like the looks of him. Nice additions.

I hope you can find it cheap! I so wish Hasbro had waited for all these variants of the Stormtrooper and used the new mold for all the repaints...oh well. I'm going to sell the Carbonized Stormtrooper again for 25-29€. Unfortunately the box has quite a few scratches and a dent.

I just signed up for the free audible trial. Now, I can stream the audiobook. The quality of Battlefront: Twilight Company sounds great so far! Now, I'm going to listen to it for almost 14 hours while waiting for Season 2 of The Mandalorian to air!  0/

This wasn't a purchase as Hasbro send me this gift box to commemorate Mando Mondays and it came yesterday on my birthday!

Got the Mando from Best Buy and the trio from target. I believe that case also held Cad Bane and the Incinerator trooper but they were not to be found
