Week of: Aug. 23rd, 1999

Sunday, Aug. 29th:

6" Anakin Wave

Greg L. reports finding a couple of the 6" Anakin figures at the TRU in Northridge. All of the other figures were gone, but it looked like they had gotten two cases.

Target Sale

Target has some EP1 stuff on sale. The things that come to mind are figures for $5.99, Droid Fighter for $12.88 and the Beast Assortment also for $12.88. Remember that you can get most stores to match Target's price if you bring along the add.

Tatooine Showdown 3-Pack

Dave P. informs me that he found the 2nd EP1 3-pack yesterday at Electronic Boutique in Eastown Mall in Madison.

Classic Assortment

These continue to show up, this time at TRU east in Madison and (Dave P. reports) at K-Mart east in Madison. The first ones that I have gotten have not had any peg holes in the Jawa's feet. I did get one with peg holes at some point. The Jawas at TRU this morning all had the peg holes, so they fixed this mistake pretty quickly.

Galoob Action Fleet Mini-Scenes

The 2nd wave of the Action Fleet Mini-Scene playsets are now out. These are numbered 5-8 and were seen at both Wal-Mart Sun Prairie and Stoughton.

Thursaday, Aug. 26th:

Classic Assortment

More of these hit Madison area Wal-Marts. Both the east side and Sun Prairie had some today.

Anakin Naboo

Wal-Mart Sun Prairie also had in a case of these today. To give you an idea of how hard they are to spot, all of the Mauls and Queen Coruscants were gone while Anakin Naboos remained with the other two Jedi.

Jabba Beast

The Wal-Mart in Stoughton (yes Stoughton) had in a case of these today. They come 3 to a case and these were all in .0000 boxes.

Wednesday, Aug. 25th:

Theed Generator Complex Playset

Found these at TRU east in Madison. It cost $19.99 and comes with a Battle Droid figure. The Battle Droid figure has less articulation than the carded ones and is similar (I understand) to those that can be found in the Taiwanese 2-packs.

K-Mart Posters Update

K-Mart east in Madison had put the 4th poster out a week early and had sold out before Sunday. South got theirs in a little late and has them now. I have no idea what is going on at the west store. Thanks to Ray and Dave P. for helping unravel this mystery.

Boss Nass Can

I found the Boss Nass can in 12 packs at Shopko south in Madison today. Ray reports finding these at K-Mart south in Madison yesterday. One thing to note is that some of the 12 packs out now do not have Star Wars on the case, but still has the Star Wars cans inside.

Taco Bell Posters

The Taco Bell in Sun Prairie is selling all 4 posters for $1. Again, thanks to Ray I picked up some cheap stuff. I do not know if other Taco Bells are doing this or if it is just this one.

Monday, Aug. 23rd:

Classic Assortment

More of these hit Madison area Wal-Marts. Both the east and west side stores had a case of these today. It may have been more than one case at the west side store since there were some figures left yet at around 2:00 this afternoon.

Darth Sidious Pepsi Can

This can is now out and was seen in 24 can cases at K-Mart south in Madison. That leaves Boss Nass on Pepsi One as the last can to get.
