Darth Maul vs Obi-Wan 2-Pack

TRU in Madison had in a few of these this morning. Most were on really beat up cards.

12" Qui-Gon & Amidala 2-Pack

MosEspa.com has this limited edition collector set available while supplies last. They will set you back a hefty $79.95 plus shipping. Here is a direct link. Thanks to Beth for the heads up on this one.

Update: Entertainment Earth also has these in stock for $79.49 plus free shipping "Guaranteed Mint". Here is a direct link for them.

Ammo Wagon & Scout Sub

I had ordered the Ammo Wagon with Falumpaset and the Gungan Scout Sub from Planet Action Figure. This was the first time dealing with them and I wasn't sure what to expect. Well, I am very happy with them. The Ammo Wagon is $24.99 and the Scout Sub is $15.99 (they are still available). I am sure that this is higher than normal retail, but still reasonable (especially considering how hard it is to find anything as of late). They both arrived in good shape and in .0000 boxes. I thought that the Ammo Wagon was going to be a Wal-Mart exclusive, but several online retailers have had them. The Ammo Wagon looks pretty good, but there isn't much for articulation. The figure is molded into the basket and is not removable. My Gungan Battle scene is now starting to take shape, now all I need are some generic Gungan warriors. The Scout Sub has a 'snapping defense claw" and is shown grabbing an Opee. The Obi-Wan figure isn't too bad, but has limited articulation when compared to the carded ones.

Mynock Hunt

TRU in Madison got in two cases of the Mynock Hunt 3-packs today. All that was left by the time I got there after work was a single Jabba's Dancers 3-pack. Thanks to George for filling in the details.

Hallmark ESB Lunch Box

The Hallmark in Eastown Mall in Madison has in the new ESB mini-lunch box. They are about half the size as the original. Pretty neat, but it will cost you $10.99.
