The TAC figures (and remaining Saga 2) went on clearance at Target out here. I bought an Imperial Officer with a head variation that I didn't have for $4.64. This is the first figure I've bought since 2-1B back in March.

Sweet, I might have to get a few more Biker Scouts, then.
Shit. I can't think of a good signature.

At my Target all the 3 3/4 SW figs are on clearance, as well as the Order 66 packs and the glow-in-the-dark spooge covered Rancor.

I like how Hasbro issued a big "buy the Order 66 sets now, since they're not going on clearance EVER!!!" statement, and then, well . . .
Shit. I can't think of a good signature.

.... they humped you in the bum?

I'm doing MAJOR downsizing right now. I've put up for sale a ton of loose prequel vehicles and playsets from the whole saga (who's got room?), and it's actually been moving not too badly. Tightening the focus to mainly OT stuff, much like R2.

Holy shit, wait 'til Mabs gets a load of this!!!!

I think that almost warrants a new Cash cover act called "Dengar Management" who's first album would be entitled "12 Steps on the Line". :lol:

I SWEAR someone posted a pic of the "real" Dengar compared to Johnny Cash elsewheres a few years ago

The similarities in the noses of the two are fuckin striking :mabs:

Maybe Dengar in the FU is getting a character update....
Vince, NO!!!!!

The Dengar/Cash thing was brought up in Wizard or Toyfare several years ago.

Noone mentions the Ellen Degeneres lookalike in that Imperial Officer SW 2-pack that came out last year?

Dengar shot a man on Dantooine, just to watch him die.

Kinda funny they left out the two Quentin Tarantino lookalikes (Veers and the Honor Guard), 12" Han resculpt/David Duchovny, and Han from the Jabba's Palace diorama/Lyle Lovett.

The odd item I have packaged, but not very much at all. A few exclusive items (Jorg Sacul, talking Vader from CIII for example). I open pretty much everything.

This morning, I wandered into one of my local Targets. They had all the new figures out. I grabbed the Ewok, Yarna, Bane Malor, and Ak Rev. They were $8. They had that Clone AT-AT thing. It looks huge. They also had the Galactic Hero Jabba set (which I probably should have picked up for the kids...oh well).

It has been a while since I've seen the list for what else comes out, but I'm pretty sure this is all the regular carded figures I'm getting for the rest of they year. That will leave me with the legs and torso of R7-Z0 (whatever that is from) and the torso of the black R4. Looks like my Jawas and Ugnaughts just got themselves some spare parts.

The only thing I'm interested in getting is the Rebel Pilot Evolutions.

I saw some of the stuff at Target also and they would only let me get the GH figs. I saw the Jabba set which I will get this time around. I did get the newer figs.
