Cool.

And oh yeah, a special thanks to Matt for sorting out the Toyworld discount! I ran into you at the perfect time to grab a coupon after totally forgetting to print one out.
Meant that my 6" Stormtrooper was a very similar price to the out of stock Warehouse. :)

This is awesome guys. I went to the local Warehouse after work yesterday in the hope they'd broken embargo....I found maybe six SW toys in the whole place! Will pop in after work to see everything.

I've just looked through the Albany gallery and....well...I wasn't planning on buying anything but some of those toys look really good!

I'm so glad the community and shops got in behind it this morning.

Hi Guys, check out the warehouse online quickly.
I just purchased the Class III X-Wing and Class II Tie Fighter from The Warehouse Online.
These wasn't at the warehouse last night. Same Deal, Buy 1 and get the second at half price.
Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.

Just hit the Wellington CBD Warehouse and Farmers at opening. The former is drastically understocked (see attached image). No 3 3/4" Rens or Phasmas, and only two of each of the other figures. Farmers was looking much better, with a full range of Black Series 6" figures in stock. They're much better supplied for 3 3/4" too - though they only had one Ren and two Phasmas, all of which were snapped up as soon as doors opened.

I'll head back to the Wellington TW to assess the damage and report back later on today.

It seems Te Rapa Warehouse was a bit slow on Force Friday this morning. They are only just putting stock out now at 10:30am

Am a bit sleep deprived...can't remember if I've posted these yet...photo albums from Albany Toyworld and The Warehouse respectively.

Not in Wellington. Toyworld is the only store down here with them - not sure about elsewhere.

None that I spotted when I was just at Farmers a minute ago in Kilbirnie. Speaking of missing stuff, I have yet to see any leaked early releases of the Mission series 2-packs overseas, leading me to wonder if that range has been delayed worldwide?
