Some new grabs
I was thrilled when I got home yesterday to find a box on my doorstep. Boxes are always nice. There's always that feeling of anticipation as to what's inside. Basically, I knew what was inside which made it all the more hard to control myself from jumping out of a moving car as I pulled in to the driveway.

The box was from none other than DEEJ himself. A key player in the finishing up of my McQuarrie Concept Figs. There are indeed other to thank as well.

So I grabbed the box and immediately went in to open it up.

Inside I find a C3-PO PEZ dispenser and a few Vader heads filled with candy (somewhere between a Spree and a Sweet Tart)....DELICIOUS! But the main booty was there and it consisted of THE FINAL THREE McFigs that I needed. Way too cool for words. I looked and I really think this rounds out the collection. Thanks WAY SO much!

Then, I went out and about and decided to stop off at a couple stores to see what was what. Thinking that with Indy figs hitting shelves, and y smart store would make an Indy/Star Wars aisle the likes of which could not be stopped. Well, nobody around here has done that.

I did, however, find some really great figs none the less.

ZEV SENESCA, responsible for locating Solo and Skywalker on Hoth "I found them. Repeat, I found them."

I'd looked at the MUSTAFAR PANNING DROID several times and finally broke down and purchased one. Then as I was about to leave the aisle, I was commanded to return by NEYO and GREE. I don't recall NEYO in the movie but I do recall that being an early graphic for a lot of figs and toys. A graphic of him running toward the "camera" or "out" of the packaging. Cool fig. GREE is also a pretty groovy clone. I say it all the time, you just can't have too many clones. Not at all. I believe DEEJ is with me on this one.

Finally, some things that I will blog about in the not too distant future. My trip to ILM back in February, the joys of being a lower middle class kid and having to find ordinary things to become my Star Wars stuff.

Nice! I have the Han Solo figure and passed by the Starkiller one. I not a huge collector, I just get the figures I want.

Nice find! I can't say I've ever seen one of those.

I'm looking forward to the next couple of blogs.

You're very welcome dude, so glad, as always, to help a fellow Geek In Need!

The Great McFig Hunt was fun yet frustrating, Im glad its over!

I found Neyo the other day and was SO excited! I had a spot reserved for him for ages under my Order 66 print; he was the only fig I had missing of the clonesfeatured in the print LOL.

and yeah, Im with you...cant have too many clones! be on the watch dude, there are more hitting pegs including rereleases of the Shadow & Covert Ops Troopers and an Shadow Stormtrooper! :D
