Yep, basically Titaniums 2.0, though with funky finger mount stands and simpler paint aps.

It looks like The Warehouse now also has the buy-one-get-one-half price promotion on Hot Wheels cars and die-cast vehicles. They seem to have more and more variety in stock these days, right down to satin boxer shorts. Here are some photos from around our local branch.

Just spotted the 6" black series Han & Luke Stormtroopers at my local Farmers. Has anyone else seen that wave outside of Whitcoulls?
And any idea when the next Farmers toy sale is??

The next school holidays are coming up at the beginning of July so there's a good chance we should see some toy sales in a couple of weeks.

The Warehouse has added even more boy's t-shirts for $10 each, available in sizes 8 to 16 (I would guess the size 16 would be close to adult size)

Had a little look @ Whitcoulls Lambton Quay today.
Kinda feel a little let down by this wave...or maybe I'm being too fussy..?

Stormie Luke looks to be exactly the same height as Stormie Han...anyone confirm?

...and lots of extra unneeded foreign translations all over the box, and no character quotes!

Palpatine did kinda look cool though.
