The the to be released in the US Scarif Trooper and Cassian Andor figures were present, along with seemingly most figures from past waves as well. As always, compared to the US, the pricing sucks, but their presence would seem to shine a ray of sunlight on the hope of these being sold in NZ as well. Perhaps there's still hope?

yeah the pricings a bit up there, and hope thats a large ray of sunlight

They are currently AU$6 of thanks to a Big W toy sale in effect this week. AU$19 is a lot better than AU$25! If you have any Aussie trade buddies, now would be a great time to tap them. I have my step-sister on the case.

Feel free to buy extras and sell them to us for some profit
Looking at around 20-30$ nzd to buy them loose, i'd sell a kidney for some royal guards lol.

I'd happily offer any extras here for my buds, but I am honestly not expecting her to find any. I suspect the local Australian fans have snapped them up already, and, in fairness to them, probably rightly so.

Indeed the whole wave is good i managed an Ahsoka from it for 20$ish and if i see lando for a good price/combined shipping i'll grab him because its his best figure though i'm not a fan of his character nor a "good guy collector" though i imagine because of the royal guard being in the wave we'll see plenty of left overs of the others.

There have even been knock off first order stormtroopers online, in the 4 inch scale i've encountered a couple of fakes in the 6 inch but never thought they'd get into the smaller figures but at $10 a pop i thought i'd grab some to see. - but i'd much rather pay reasonable retail for the real thing.

Oh my goodness, she came through! My amazing Melbourne-based step sister lucked onto a fresh case at her local Big W. Shore and Death Troopers scored. I owe her a huge favour for this one. I will have her keep her eyes open in case she finds more while the sale is on, and share any extras at cost + shipping here.

Thanks i'm sure any extras you can part with will be greatly appreciated by myself or others who'd had a hard time getting these figures.
long live the 4 inch! lol

Might be worth signing if your interested Hasbro do need to be held to account they promised better figures in the 3.75 line then never delivered then reduced them to exclusive completely.

Thanks for sharing that Dawfydd!

As many as you may have, or may not have heard.

The Vintage 3.75 inch line will return in 2018.

For those who couldn't move on from collecting the smaller figures and replace them with the 6 inch we will have option and they will no longer be exclusive as walmart made far too many mistakes not having enough supply issues etc that withheld them from many collectors (plus our entire country)

I'll include the video link from where i got the news and the previous request for signatures was made by.
