zskid00 Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 The TIE Striker, U-Wing, and AT-ST are calling to me. I may need a couple of each. Quote

lazuli16 Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 That U Wing looks like it's Pre Visla's Mandalorian Fighters distant cousin. 2 Quote
California92563 Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 I have a bunch of tru giftcards saved up so I'm honestly thinking of going buck wild this year and buying all of them at once. It sounds like a lot of fun since I'll have at least a weeks worth of building from them. 1 Quote

HandyHand Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 Since Disney took over from Lucas Arts the bad guys all wear black and fly in black ships. It's so cliché! Yes, of course Darth Vader was clad in black, but the stormtroopers were in white, the imperial shuttle was white... Now we have Kylo Ren in black flying a black shuttle, and this Krennic shuttle in black with undoubtedly Krennic, whoever he may be, also wearing black. Come on Disney, it's not a black/evil vs white/good children movie! Where are nuances and shades of grey? Quote

You might want to back track on this a bit there, this is Krennic: His trousers look black though, I will give you that Edited August 9, 2016 by Sprocket77 2 Quote

Last year on Force Friday, TRU had all the sets originally set at retail cost until about a month later when they did their typical markup. Last year the initial 7 sets would cost 570 plus tax at retail. This year the 5 initial sets will cost a more tolerable 340.00. If you can get the entire wave at a decent discount, i'd go for it! Buying an entire wave at once would be a fun day. Quote

Buying an entire wave at once would be a fun day. I walked out of TRU with 2 action figures and I was fine with that. I did buy a few Black Series from Wal-Mart. Some local (old KB Toys) guy had a cart full of action figures at Wal-Mart and took all the Phasma, etc. He seems happy with those small margins. I didn't buy many TFA sets until after Christmas I believe, but only the MF from TRU and $19 snowspeeders. I did buy some XMas clearance Poe's X-Wing from Sam's Club and flipped a few then and held the rest. Quote
ISO8T0 Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Yeah the price on those Poe's was sweet. Wish my Sams had them. Quote
fossilrock Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 I was lucking out at BAM. They were having a BOGO50% on all lego sets last year for black friday and star wars sets were included. That's where I picked up most of my force awakens stock. It will be interesting to see if they do that promo again, because I cleaned them out. Quote
zskid00 Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 I also picked up some Poe's X-wing at Sam's Club for $49 right after Christmas and flipped them all. I have added some to my longer term inventory this year when the price has been right. For TFA, the Kylo Ren Force FX lightsaber, Black Series Phasma from Kohls.com, Target BB-8, and for a hot second the Sphero BB-8 were great to flip. All with discounts of course. Quote
