did you (Hasbro) loose a full container load or more in the big blue ocean?

Things are very dry in St.Louis.

I have been eyeballing about 15 at-sts in a discount isle with red stickers that have the regular price.  :(

The dust is very noticable !!   :D

What I would like to know is where all the Legacy figs went. Mine just disappeared and were replaced with one wave of CW figs that walmart must have bought tons of. Its all obi, ani, echo, cody, bane, and that wave.  Surely they are getting in some of the new vintage stock. Surely.

Here is what the star wars section looked like at my Blue Springs walmart yesterday.
Yep, that's right folks, multiples of one peg warmer and a bunch of empty pegs. Good job walmart, you really keep us star wars collectors satisfied.

They really did pack in too many Obi's and Ani's in all the waves.
I think I have about 5 of each and 3 or 4 are identical thanks to multi figure packs and lowball EBay bids won .... right after buying them in store.
They did have the Snow Obi at least. My son finally got that one just tonight.
Our stores still have the helmet pack CW figs and helmet Legacy figs.... from like a year and a half ago at least.

Both my locaol walmarts have the same looking pegs. I don't think I am gonna see the vintage stuff for quite some time due to CW clogging the pegs. I don't know how they are gonna ever put out new CW figs either. I also wonder if they will just raise the price back up to seven bucks or so. I keep hoping by accident I will go in there and see new vintage stuff at the four fifty price tag, but I know I am dreaming.

Wow, its been awhile since this has been updated.

Well I went looking for the new vntage wave today and came up empty handed, but I did see where Saga Legends are now $4.50 on the pegs.

I think the saddest thing was the fact that there was almost side by side a vintage rots clone trooper, a vintage 212th clone trooper, and the saga legends clone trooper at $4.50. Both of the helmets on the previous two were yellowing and the saga legends trooper, almost half off the price of the other two, looked better with a whiter helmet and general armor. I don't know what plastic they are using for some of those early Clone piecies, but I hope they have gotten rid of it.
