Farm & Fleet Report

Farm & Fleet (Fleet Farm in some areas) opened their Toyland area today. The Madison Farm & Fleet had two pegs of Darth Vader (Emperor's Wrath) wave and two pegs of Ketwol wave. The price on their figures is $5.49; too bad they didn't have them in their ad so that we could price match. One thing to note is that they tend to get a lot of just one thing. I expect that they will not get any other waves except these two. Otherwise, sometimes Farm & Fleet carries a slightly different selection then Fleet Farm.

12" Luke Speederbike

It looks like the Target west in Madison was the place to be this morning if you were looking for this item. Both Ray H. and Ian reported seeing two of them on the top shelf there. This Target exclusive cost $49.99. Both Ray and Ian passed on buying one today, that probably tells you something about them.

KB Clearance Figures

Gary S. reports that KB west in Madison got in a fresh batch of the Dagobah Vader wave. These figures are on clearance for $2.99 right now.

Deluxe Figures

Joe Y. reports that www.toybliss.com has some of the new POTJ Deluxe figures for sale and in stock. Their price is $12.99. This is higher than retail, which should be about $9.99, but terribly so. Here is a direct link to the figures; I have no experience with this seller. Since they have them in stock, it shouldn't be too long before we start seeing them on the shelves.

Farm & Fleet Toyland

Farm & Fleet (or Fleet Farm depending on your area) will be opening their Toyland this Saturday at 7:00am. Their ad flier doesn't show any Star Wars items, but I would bet that there are some.
