Leia General Wave

Thanks to a chance stop at K-Mart south in Madison, I was able to pick up this wave. Beth reports that the TRU in Green Bay also got these in and I believe that Target west in Madison had them earlier in the week. Leia General is OK, but has too wide of a stance (because they used the torso from the Leia Speederbike figure) and I think her eyes are too small. She comes on a .0000 card with .0000 Force File. The new Qui-Gon figure is better, but looks a lot like the one that came with the Eopie (if you were lucky enough to get one). He has a cloth poncho and comes on a .0000 card with .0100 Force File. Neither are bad figures, but they seem to be following in the footsteps of the rest of the collection 1 figures.

Mega Destroyer Droid

I was able to get one Mega Destroyer Droid at Target east in Madison. Hopefully I can get a second one soon to see if it is as cool as some people say. It comes in a .0000 box and is supposed to be able to fold up into a wheel.

TRU West In Madison

The new TRU in Madison is set to have their Grand Opening Nov. 19th. They will be having their test opening on the 16th. This store will use the new C3 style having "worlds" instead of isles. So far nothing too exciting is being stocked, mostly clearance stuff. Thanks to Necklace for the information.

Saturday, Nov. 11th:

Sebulba Wave

Wal-Mart east in Madison got in some of the Sebulba wave this morning. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get some of the figures that I wanted. I did snag a Sebulba, but missed the Fode & Beed figure. Also in this wave are Porkins and Boss Nass. Gungan Warrior may be in there as well, but I didn't see him. All of the figures in the case now come on the new .0100 cards that have an updated figure listing on the back.

Leia General Wave

Don M. reports that TRU east in Madison had some Leia General and Qui-Gon Jinn figures this morning.

Porkins Wave

Don M. also reports that Target east in Madison had some of the Porkins wave this morning.
