Picked up SW Legacy #5 tpb at 30% off in a bookstore local closing-down sale on Saturday. (I'm going to miss that store. I bought a lot of SW books there).


I got a Scout Trooper action figure the other day. I saw a awesome Vader, but I have to get 5 of the figures with the Darth Maul sticker on them!

Anyways, Fett is it Walden Books? Because that is closing down here in my town.

No, though I used to shop at Waldenbooks when I lived in the US. This was Books Etc, part of the Borders chain here in the UK.

Oh. Waldenbooks is part of the Borders chain. I wonder if a lot of book stores affiliated with Borders is closing down. (Which really sucks, because I live in the middle of nowhere, and it's the only book store around.)

Luckily the town I live in has a Waterstones, which is a similar bookstore. I liked having both though - if one didn't have the book you wanted the other usually did.
I think quite a few of the Books Etc stores have closed here in the UK. I've seem rumors that all of the Books Etc stores might close early next year but I haven't seen any confirmation.

I just picked up Star Wars: Dark Lord: Rise Of Darth Vader and The Clone Wars comic #9.

My WaldenBooks is closing down in January. cry It's the only place where they sell SW books in my city. My Walmart sometimes does, but I guess I need to order from SWshop.com for now on. That is why I am getting as many SW books as I can before it closes. I want some more SW figures too. Especially the new TCW line and the new Legacy Collection line coming out. And DarthBane, I'm working on getting figures with the Darth Maul sticker too. I want that Qui-Gon and Eopie figure so bad.

Before you order any books from SWShop check their price against Amazon's. Amazon usually discount their books and they do free shipping if your order is over a certain amount. This applies to Amazon US as well as UK.

Coruscant Clone Trooper
Clone Commander

Almsot got that figure you can turn on a pedestal, too (got the stormie of those already) and am still eyeing the Illusive Fetts.
Not to mention that I promised myself I could buy the life-size Fett in February, if I still want him then. blush

I've got that electronic Fett - it's pretty nice.

And I assume you mean the Epic Force Boba (the Fett on the pedestal). That's one of my favorite Fetts for display.

I have a 'talking' Jango already. Maybe they have something to say to each other. laugh
Though the Jango is all plastic where as the Boba seems to have some kind of cloth...

I would look it up but I have my stormie in- Wiat, there's something called the internet. doh!
Yes, Epic Force is it.

Oh well, some other day.

Yeah, I have two talking Jangos. One is the Jango Fett Room Alarm and the other is the Electronic Jango.

Got an Amazon delivery today. It had Season One of CW on DVD and a 2010 CLassic SW calendar.

I just picked up Lieutenant Thire and Luminara Unduli figures. They are both very rare where I live, so I'm glad to have picked them up. Still looking for the new Episode VI wave and the wave with Commander Cody from the Legacy Collection line.

Okay the 12" Fett figure that makes noises and speaks sentences arrived today. I found where to insert the batteries, but not how to make him speak. Any suggestions?
I didn't get a manual with it... blush
