Hey Paul,
Hope you are well and looking forward to a nice holiday season. I just wanted to report in from two Targets in my area North of Boston. I found a plentiful supply of TBS Exclusive Shadow set, for those still looking. Also wave five of TBS 3.75" including Ree-Yees, just no Jabba's Skiff Guard. Plenty of TBS 6" Deluxe as well. What got my attention was the 12" shampoo bottle figures. Although they are of little interest to collectors, they had the Rebels characters in new Rebels packaging. I'm thinking this may be a sign that other Rebels stuff is on the way in this area. So far all we've had is that horrible Target set of 12". I must admit I caved and got the 12" Rebels Style Stormtrooper and Agent Kallus. They also had the Target exclusive Hot Wheels set and TCW : The Lost Missions was released today on DVD and BRD, though they were almost sold out of the DVD and had none left of the Blu Ray. They are on sale this week at Target as well. I grabbed the DVD marked $29.99 for $24.99(which is what the MSRP is anyway). I'm heading to TRU do I'll let you know if they have anything of note. Have a good Thanksgiving this month! Btw, the RDRs on the older neo-classic toys are much appreciated!
Happy to report that my local TRU has the Rebels vehicles in for the first time. They were only $22.99 as well, which was a surprise as the SL vehicles were still $26.99. They also had the deluxe shampoo bottles of Kanan and Inquisitor, for anyone that cares. My cable On Demand has been showing new episodes of Rebels a week early. It seems as if the deluxe 12" Inquisitor's mask and all black outfit are what he wears when piloting his TIE. Take care. :) -Mike(Darth Janus)
