Not that I collect Pops but I noticed this evening that Toyco in Auckland has a small range on special (Clearance) at the moment. You'll find them on line, some down to $10.00.

Thanks so much for that.....I never thought of using Tyco because we don't have them here.

I picked up a Sandtrooper and a Gold Princess Leia to add to the collection.

I had a bit of a buy up on the Toyco online store while they had their sale on.....

I was so happy to get the Mandalorian Flame Throwing figure and the Sandtrooper Pop is also really cool. I've been wanting the 'glow in the dark' Force Lightening Vader for a while now so grabbed him as soon as I saw him and the Wicket Pop was also an easy buy. I needed Tobias Beckett for my Solo collection and I was going to grab a few of the gold Pops but the Princess Leia figure was the only one I really wanted.

I'm so happy to have all eight Pops but my favourite out of all of them would have to be Dryens Gangster.....his armour looks amazing in person and his head sculpt is dead on for the film.

The Young Jyn Erso Funko arrived and it's a really nice Pop.

I got this one to add to my Rogue One Collection and am impressed with the detail they put into her toy Stormtrooper. It sets off the figure nicely....really glad I brought it.

I added two more Funkos to the collection today,

Jyn Erso in her Imperial disguise which is a really cool figure.....it would be even better if it had a removal visor but that's just me over thinking lol.

And.....

Guavian from Episode VII, He's again, not a figure I was actively chasing but so happy to have him once I had him in my hands.

(I purchased these Pops off Trade Me so can't comment on the totally wrong First Order Cog backing cards as I'm not sure they're original lol)

I'm getting really close to my number of Pops that I don't want to go past so have been a bit more selective with my purchases.

Jabba the Hutt is one Pop I couldn't pass up. I'm really happy Funko went with a more 'cutesy' look instead of a more vile one lol. He still looks like he could grab Leia by her chain but fits in well with the rest of my Pops.

I recieved my first delivery since the Corona Virus lock down and they were worth the wait....

I got the the Gold Chrome 157 Darth Vader 2019 Galatic Convention Exclusive which is a great Pop....the gold looks amazing and really looks good on the shelf, it really stands out in the sunlight.

The second one is the Red Chrome 157 Darth Vader 'Target' Exclusive.....Im happy to add this to my collection, he doesn't stand out as well as the gold version but still looks cool.

The boxes are pretty much identical except for the Gold version having the Star Wars Celebration logo and the Red one having the normal retail picture.

I finally got the Funko I really wanted.....

The 'Holiday Special' Boba Fett. The colours look amazing and I couldn't be happier with him.

The 10" Wicket pop arrived as well and he's awesome.....Im so glad I went with the larger version and I really like that his backing card is a forest scene instead of just the red that nearly all come with.

The Scarif Stormtrooper from Rogue One would have to be one of my absolute favourite Troopers. The colours look really cool and really suits the overall design of the armour.

The Funko version is really well detailed and is one of the first pops I had to add to the Funko collection.....not only to put by my Rogue One figures but because I'll buy any version of the figure I can find lol.

I'm so happy that the Death Troopers from Rogue One made an appearance in The Mandalorian......theyre too great of a design to only use in one movie.

I really like how theyve kept the green eyes and helmet accents subtle on this Pop, it keeps the sinister look they have on screen.

I must admit I am a bit surprised they've kept the Death Trooper name on the toys as its not very 'kid friendly'.
