The Warehouse in Albany had an lot of stock, but only a selection from the ESB wave, including Zuckuss, Willrow Hood, R2-X2, AT-AT Driver, Cloud City Wing Guard. Not many of the R2-X2s (I picked one up), but tons of Willrow Hood (left him there...figured he'll turn in to a pegwarmer, and can be picked up later).

Something I noticed when looking for the new Legacy figures this weekend was that a number of the CW figs on pegs at the Warehouse had DVDs strapped to the back oftheir cards with shrink wrap. I believe the DVDs were labeled something like "great lightsaber battles" or something like that? I can't recall exactly (was too excited by all the fresh Legacy in front of me), but I don't recall seeing these DVDs before. Is this something I've only just noticed that'd been around for ages or something new?

They're fairly recent, but I haven't heard anyone describe the actual content.

Those bonus DVDs have been around for about a month. It's just another gimmick to try and get rid of old stock. FarmboyNZ beat me to posting about them in this topic back on 12 April ...

The Warebase Te Rapa didn't have much stock of the shelves, but i did notice some figures had a bonus DVD with them
DVD shows 6 lightsaber battles
3 from the clones wars cartoon and 3 from the prequels

Kmart in Albany (Auckland) is busy rearranging all their shelves / areas and hadn't got any Star Wars items in place on Friday, not that they had much before that anyway.

Thanks Buzz. Sorry I missed your earlier post.

Nope, not my post. FarmboyNZ beat me to it - I was about to post about the DVDs, but saw he had already done it a day or so before.

well have to say have been highly disappointed with the figure selction at toy r us i have visit in the last few weeks in singapore and japan

but on the bright side for the kids i managed to pick up a clone trooper voice changing helmet and gun for about $30 buck a set and a cool obi wan light saber spring opening action for $20

hoping i maybe able to pick up some star tour figures at disney land on thursday

Oops! Yes, I mean farmboynz. Sorry.

Oh hey and nice haul there farmboynz. Shame you didn't find more but at least you snagged some good deals.

The latest Farmers e-mail is advertising a 1-day sale on Thursday 27th May, which includes 20% off all toys

If anyone out there stumbles across the Galactic Heroes AT-AT at their local Farmers branch, do you mind snapping a pic or two of the back please? I have been looking but haven't found one at any of the branches bnear me this weekend. I wanted to check the back and see if it shows any of the other sets that are coming for GHs this year. There's precious little info out there about what's coming for this line so there could be a scoop or two to be found on the back of that box. Thanks!
