Thanks everyone for the updates. It's a lot easier tracking down figures than it was in the pre-SWNZ forums days
Can confirm that these latest Black Series waves have hit the Cuba Street Farmers in Wellington. Got me a Rex, Thorn, and Doom to add to my Clone Trooper collection!

Cool, we've been waiting for these...they're from from Aussie company Park Avenue, who did a lot of the Easter products we saw a few months back.

Don't feel bad. He's pretty obscure, having only appeared in one episode of the Lost Missions. I think he comes to us as a figure by virtue of his easy and eye-catching repaint status (which, it turns out, is inspired by Dr Doom's classic costume colours).Harvey Mushman wrote:I'm so out of touch!
He's got cool armour!
Yeah, the heads-up to Wave 8's arrival this week was amazing. I doubt I would have even checked the stores this weekend, had Stylie Steve not tipped us off. Sincerest thanks, mate!

Re: Store Reports / Latest Finds (2015...)
Its a shame so many more figures from the same episode were ignored for a mere repaint on a body that is far subpar to vc-45.

I do hope it means there might be more clone wars possibly but i'd prefer they do them in the cartoony style if they do them, i will hope farmers in chch will have some today.

Woo! Have been keeping an eye on supermarkets for a few months now after seeing a friend in Australia mention them (they're from the same company as other licensed cookies sold here) - happy to see them finally show up, thanks for the alert!Michael_Lee wrote:And the Star Wars goodness keeps on coming.

Yeah I will pick up a few packs later in the week for the kids school lunches I've been keeping an eye out in case we get any Star Wars related breakfast products.

Re: Store Reports / Latest Finds (2015...)
Saw the same wave of The Black Series at Farmers Dunedin, picked up Thorn and Doom - my first SW purchases since late 2010/early 2011
At $12 each, I think I see a few more purchases over the next day or so.
