I was looking at the Tie-Fighter for so long wondering whether or not to buy it and in the end I put it back.....which is rare for me hahaha I'd like to track down the AT-AT though.

I couldn't ever sell one if my kids for Star Wars stuff.......I asked the Warehouse but they refused hahahahaha

An AT-AT! You had me searching the web to see what is in the range. An X-wing and and AT-AT would be great.
The Hasbro site isn't really helpful but found on the Jedibussiness site, their review of the New York Toy Fair 2020.

Mission Fleet Series

BARC Speeder (with Obi-Wan Kenobi)
Speeder Bike (with the Mandalorian and the Child)
AT-RT (with Captain Rex)
Jedi Starfighter (with Anakin Skywalker)
Vader's Tie Advanced (with Darth Vader)
X-Wing Fighter (with Luke Skywalker)
Millennium Falcon (with Han Solo)

No AT-AT as yet. Fingers crossed.

With Auckland remaining in Level 2.5 for another week, I'm sorry to see the Auckland Hobbies Show has now had to be cancelled. Meaning I now have some spare cash to splurge tomorrow on an X-wing. A real shame about the show. I know how hard it is AND how disappointing it is to try and get a show like this across the line in this current environment. Being an Event Coordinator myself, planning shows like this are going to be difficult, REAL DIFFICULT !!! Good Luck for Armageddon next month.

I'm the first to admit when I'm being a complete moron lol.

I got my wires totally crossed....its the Micro Force At-At I was searching for, not a Mission Fleet one :blink:

Fingers crossed though.

I don't really buy a lot of Black Series figures but I had to grab these two from the Warehouse.....mainly because I love Ewoks and secondly for the fantastic packaging.

Is The Warehouse stepping up its game a little?!

Found this box today in 3 Warehouse stores for $60. Managed to put it back on the shelf (3x) but I'm guessing I'll be back tomorrow to purchase it after by buying Darth Vaders Mission Fleet Tie Fighter today, a HW Phantom and HW Tie Fighter.

I don't really see a lot of NZ Star Wars products made just for us so I'm really liking the stationary that's available at The Warehouse.

With Disney closed for such a long period, the containers of Galaxy's Edge stock must be mounting up.

Disney has opened a Trading Oupost outside the park grounds and certain lines have started to appear in other American retail stores.

Saw DJ R3X at The Warehouse today and had to take it home. It had a sticker on it "Transported from Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Trading Outpost'. Hopefully we'll be lucky enough to see more heading into Xmas.

Toyco have The Mandalorian Retro Collection figures up for pre-order.

I'm not sure these will be a must for me and I've only purchased The Mandalorian to display next to my Retro Collection Boba Fett.

My local Warehouse just stocked the shelves with a heap of The Mandalorian with Child Vintage Collection figures.

Great to see Pedro Pascal gets his action figure with no helmet (interchangeable helmet/head)

It was only a matter of time that The Warehouse marked down the pile of Falcons they had on permanent special at $99.

They now have them at $60. Still $10 to much BUT I purchased one anyway.

Shame its not the real Falcon with the round dish!!!!
