I saw one of the vintage carded Piett at Gamestop. but didn't want to spend that much on him.

I still haven't bought 6" figures from any line. The first one I've actually considered was Rock & Roll because he was my first GI Joe back in the day.

The onslaught of retro figures finally got me. I picked up Marion, Belloq, and Temple of Doom Indy from the Retro Indiana Jones line that were on clearance for $3.50. I'd like to get Sallah, but haven't been to a Target in a couple weeks.

so far, i only have "Din Djarin and The Child" (the Target exclusive, basically this one with the addition of the hover pram, Grogu, some beskar ingots and the bounty tracking fob) and the RotJ Boba Fett (this one but not on the vintage style card) black series 6" figures, though i'm looking at a few more.

i was searching to see if they had a Baylan Skoll figure announced yet (which it looks like "no") but the Ahsoka (although this looks simply like a reissue of the one from Mando s2), Sabine, and Marrok figures from the series look awesome.

i currently have Reva and Obi-Wan (Wandering Jedi) in my cart at amazon since they're on a slight discount, and am looking at Aayla Secura and Mara Jade as well.
Life is short. STUNT IT!

Found a Classified Snow Serpent today. Deluxe price & no window box kinda tick me off, but this was perhaps my very favorite vintage Joe figure as a kid. 0 percent chance I was leaving it on the shelf. Gamestop for those shopping - someone apparently declined their preorder to my benefit.

Snow Job arrived in the mail from hasbropulse. I was a little pissed they didn't wait the week to ship him together with the Jabba's Denizens 3 pack, but they promised me the total I was quoted for shipping them both won't be exceeded. The figure is pretty cool - I was scared there would be a part missing or broken because I didn't want the hassle of having to return him but everything arrived safe & sound. He's in the larger box to match the Snow Serpent.

Michael Keyton Batman from the Flash Movie line. Target had the Flash figures on clearance for $2.50. I have the Danny DeVito Penguin from the Multiverse line, so I figured I need a Batman to go with him.

Big Lots have some Retro Marvel figures for $5. Grabbed Green Goblin and Spiderman in his black outfit.

I received my HasLab Jabba's denizens 4 pack. Ree Yees is a Ree-pack but the other 3 are new. Squid Head is comedically orange - I honestly think the vintage figure from 1983 is still the best version we have ever gotten of that character.

I picked up the new Target Exclusive battle damaged Darth Vader from Obi-Wan.
It's a gorgeously sculpted figure.

And today I found Shipwreck & Torpedo for 25 % off at Toys R Us. Passed on both though, after having a look at them - so guess what?

My collection remains 100 % Seamen free.

ROJ 40th Black Series Vader w Removable Helmet - like Chewie this is carded on the updated, movie correct photo card. I love that & I love the figure.

Classified Tunnel Rat & Firefly - it feels very early to have these in hand so I'm pretty stoked. The Firefly/Storm Shadow combo remains deadly as fuck.

I got 2 new figures off the pegs for the first time in ages - Klatoonian raider from Mando & Tusken Robe Boba from Book. Any guesses on the final price for 2 new figures in Canada?

$51 & change.

Vintage Collection Lobot for $10 and an old Action Fleet B-Wing. The B-Wing had the pilot, but not the base.

I also bought a 6 figure lot of McFarlane figures from the Goodwill website for $15+shipping. 5 NHL: Jagr(Caps), Forsberg, Pronger, Brodeur, Messier,(NYR) and 1 baseball: Roy Oswalt.

Goodwill has 2 websites. goodwillfinds.com lists a price (more like Amazon). shopgoodwill.com is an auction site.

Toys R Us had vehicles on for 25 percent off so I purchased the Speeder Bike with carded Biker Scout (ROJ 40th, not the Mando one). I also grabbed Mando s2 finale Jedi Luke because I love the face sculpt & card. Not sure that I need the figure at all, but the overall item was too much for me to leave behind.
