Noticed that Target marked down the TVC Krrsantan to 50% off, so I grabbed one. The deluxe range is finally vanishing from pegs with these clearance sales, though I do wonder if they'll ever return, because of the inflated pricepoints. Now to find a Sabine - is she on sale anywhere else besides Target?

I've been searching for Piett at retail since its release, and never spotted it. With the surge in secondary market price and apparent scarcity, I decided to check stores I normally don't shop at - sure enough, I stopped by a Gamestop that I've never been to, and they had one TVC figure - Piett. I couldn't help but laugh at the chances of that, but happily bought him, even at the $17 pricepoint.

I have not seen her on sale anywhere else.

Nice find, he's indeed hard to find now. Also the 4pk is a great buy at Pulse right now for $41.99

While on a solar eclipse road trip with my daughter, we swung by a Walmart afterwards in rural Missouri. I knew this wave is getting marked down at some Walmarts, so when I saw these two on the pegs, I scanned them on the Walmart app... $8.00 each, I happily added for my army building. 😀

Great find. If only the stores around here had any figures besides Lando. The store ten minutes from home still has 17 Lando hanging on the pegs.

Each store around here has 2-4 Lando. Can’t believe how over produced he was, and how long he stuck on the pegs.

I’m still on a buying freeze, but was looking at the Hasbro Pulse Imperial officer pack. For $40-ish, it’s very tempting to get another. I’d eventually like to do a Star Destroyer bridge diorama, so I would need an officer staff…

I just wish they would have updated his armor and costume changes to reflect the picture they used on the cardback. :(

I ordered Dooku off Amazon because I was afraid I would never find it at retail. What a fantastic figure. Easily one of the best ever made! I usually hate soft goods, but even the cape is excellent.
