Picked up the Starkiller that dropped recently, since I never got the original run, and he's pretty neat. Never played the game but I've always wanted one for my TVC collection. Got Cad Bane waiting in my Pile Of Loot, and a few pre-orders I can't wait to get in.
There's a Piett that's been haunting the pegs at my local Target that's probably going home with me soon, as well. Sometimes it can be hard to pay full price for regular dudes like that, but at least it's not as rough as paying a Boba Fett tax on all of those Variants I've been seeing around these days.
@nik That Piett looks funny in the package with his hat all skewed up. But if you get one and open it, you'll find the best 3 3/4" Imperial officer you've ever held in your hands!
Found the comic art (green) Boba today at Target on Balboa in San Diego. Was hoping to find one since I missed out on pre-orders. Have not got a chance to open it yet as I found it on my way to work.
I nabbed both of the comic Bobas but I think I'm leaving them in package. They look nice but not sure I'd wanna display them out. And they're not accurate to the artwork. Neither of them have a pistol holster for the pistols they have, even though the artwork for the comics he does have the pistol holster. I'm also not a huge fan of this sculpt. I got the other Target Boba they did with the really light blue and red rocket and I do not like the hips. And the range finder doesn't move. So keeping them in seems better to me.
Nomad Boba shipped out from Amazon. Cad Bane should be shipping out soon too.
I don't know why TVC even switched to removable helmets when they were already doing removable heads, and coming back to them again. Boba is the only one that looked good with the removable helmet, but that was because he's bald. Axe Woves looks bad with the helmet on. Sabine does too. All the clones do as well.

Really great interview with Emily, the lead designer on TVC a couple days ago. She mentions that they've heard the response from the community, and they're planning to lean into swappable heads going forward.
Yesterday, Amazon delayed Cad Bane and then shipped within four hours.
Cad Bane and the N-1 Starfighter arrived from BBTS yesterday. Both are TVC at their peak, just excellent!
N1 already??? Oh man, mine is paid for at Amazon, I hope they get theirs in soon too!
Just shipped all the 6" stuff out of my Pile of Loot -- N1, Cad Bane, and Piett are still in there. Waiting for a couple more TVC to arrive before pulling the trigger.
Can't WAIT to get that N1!
Last week I found a lone Admiral Motti at Target but I've been wanting to save money lately. I was "that guy" and hid him behind a Barbie espresso machine. As of yesterday he's still there.
This has been a Star Wars update.
Hopefully this presents for y'all. I made some upgrades to my Clone Wars General Kenobi by grafting in the D+ head and neck, and some MarauderTaskForce hands for the added hinge joints. I hard-surgeried an MTF Valkyrie's torso/hip engineering into him, for ball-motion waist joint and proper ball-motion hips that *don't* spin the thigh armor to the outside.
Nice work Adrien!
