Rogue Friday Recap

Sorry for the long delay in posts everyone, was off on a grand trip out west with Rey here. But now I'm back and we have lots of Rogue One loot to cover! Let's start with a look at how the weekend release went...


Walmart, nearly as expected, had no idea Rogue One was even a thing. 3.75 figures were put out though, and managed to get my priority- Sabine, along with K2-S0. Along with a whole group of various collector of all sorts hanging around, we waited until Midnight. Finally some employees were nice enough to go through the back and pull some stuff out. You guessed it...Chewbacca masks. And one box that some employee had tried to hide the Black Series in. Stuff was found, but the mismanagement of the Walmart distribution of toys still boggles my mind. 


The next day however, as hoped for, Target came through! A huge amount of goods in plentiful numbers were snatched up in moments. With the awesome $10 or $25 coupon happening yet again, they have established themselves as the best place to buy Star Wars toys on release days. 




And with a display like this, who could doubt it!


Disney Springs World of Disney was an unexpected pleasure island! They had everything...EVERYTHING.




Once Upon a Toy's stock was faster moving, but equally impressive...





And a big hooray for those who don't yet have it...The Starspeeder 1000 is back!



The new Rebels Speederbike repaint...


More display goodness...





And finally, my Rogue Friday loots!


That's about it for the recap, though the hunt for more new stuff continues. Look for reviews and pictures coming later, with more store reports! Until then, happy playing and May the Force be with you!
