Only just discovered this thread when looking for anything Force Friday on Gaf!
I'm a Star Wars collector (Black series 6" mostly)
Finish work in the early hours and will grab what I can online (UK). Still can't make my mind up exactly what I want from wave 12 - Hera, Thrawn and stormtrooper are a definite but undecided on the rest.

Cool, will do!
Bonus pic: my Hi-Metal R Hikaru DYRL VF-1S Strike Valkyrie I pickled up in Akihabara during my trip to Japan in 11/2015...I couldn't get it at the one of the big-box retailers like Yodobashi Camera cuz pre-orders were already sold out on release day, found this at one of the other toy vendors nearby for a couple hundred yen more than retail.

Got notification that my Hot Toys K2SO shipped from Sideshow. Pretty excited for that one. Can't wait.
Lots of figures out this month. Along with K2SO I have Nendo Tracer and Figma Kat on the way and 5 figures in my pile of loot at BBTS.

I mainly collect villains and troopers from the Black Series 6''. Very well-made Hopefully there's some good new ones. Nice thing about Rogue One was I was able to get a scarif and death trooper which look super cool. I also have a Revan. Out of what I want I still need a Darth Maul, Jango Fett, and Boba Fett. Boba Fett is hard to get though, it's like a hundred bucks on Amazon. I just like 'em for my shelf since they look good and don't cost too much.

My Force Friday shopping list is right under $500, and then the UCS Falcon is only two weeks away. Being a Star Wars collector is hell at times. At least it's a good property to collect tho, unlike that Harley nonsense.

where/how can i pre/order the Falcon? teach me!
Any Hot Toys discounts? Also, are there any high end star wars vehicle line? I might legit be interested in that.

Go to Lego Shop@Home and sign up for a VIP account. Then it'll be going up on their website around 9 PM PST on September 13. It shouldn't be a crazy mad dash considering the cost, but it will probably sell out. A lot simpler than AmiAmi.
See Messi I saved for this though so I can afford it. And my bonus lands in my account in two weeks. Financial stability is still had. You should learn from my example.
HT discounts please what're those? Black Series has vehicles and Bandai does models but there really isn't anything that falls under high end Star Wars vehicles unless you like big LEGO sets.

I really hope GameStop and Walgreens have those on their site

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
The finish on the prototype of C-3PO didn't look anything like on the final product so I wouldn't get your hopes up. Maybe they won't make her terribly undersized this time.
I'm not collecting anything from the new trilogy and want to sell all of my TFA stuff.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Right now the high end is studio-scale models but those are mostly 1:24 scale, plus a little bit of 1:12, 1:10 and some really rare scales like 1:43. Luke's landspeeder is some oddball scale between 1:5 and 1:6.
There are at least two different BS ones at 6" scale, but I also saw one of them at 3.75" at Walmart last week.

Wait where do I go for the Star Wars sh figuarts assuming Bluefin isn't getting them?
Amiami.com or hlj.com

Just get the MAFEX RotJ Boba Fett. It's $51 on AmiAmi. Makes the BS one look like it came out of a Burger King kids meal.
Have they showed any new OT Figuarts stuff? Last I saw their old Obi-Wan needed a lot of work. It looks like Sarah Jessica Parker's dad.
