My nearest Ollies has pegs full of pure Snoke. No other VC figures at all. They have an asking price of $6 I think it was. Does Ollies do clearance or will these pegs-o-Snoke still be there when they one day tear down the building?

Oddly, they have one peg with all the old unsold Snoke Wave 1 (still not clearanced), and a separate peg with the new wave. Also, those Cardboard Chewey sets had been clearanced down to $20, didn't sell at that price and are now back at full price. You ever notice that odd Target strategy? They don't sell at regular price, then they don't sell at initial clearance, so then they try again at full price? I don't get it. A year ago I bought that blue A-wing on clearance for $7, and then a couple weeks later they had it back up to $30. It's just nuts. Anyone find that 6" Mandalorian in the Wild? I've yet to see that anywhere. That seems like another Hasbro screw up. They under produced/distributed that (it was even hard to find online at regular price). I don't collect 6", but I would have bought that one. Now I'm disgruntled about it and refuse. I'll wait it out for the Vintage Collection release. |

Yup, no redeeming qualities at all unless gold robes are your thing. Maybe if you really, REALLY loved Goldust from back in the day and wanted to make a custom. Or maybe a Ric Flair. Seriously, what normal use is there for that robe?
Maybe if the price gets down to $1 I'll buy a dozen Snokes and use the arms in a 3d-printed insectoid torso to create some type of nightmare creature. Other than that, the Snoke figure isn't good for anything I can think of at all.

My Target just got the new wave in also. I picked up some Shadow Troopers (But I'm not paying $13 for a Jawa when I just got em from Tunghori for like $7).

I almost got one at $20 then thought, it'll be at Ross or Marshalls for less than that. My goal with those is to actually see if I can copy the art and then make 3D prints of the card board stuff and put stickers on it. I just need to time to do it.

My Target got the new TVC case in as well.
I guess somebody wanted the Shadow Trooper. He was the only one missing. I had to have Yavin Leia, that was my most wanted from this wave. I also grabbed a Jawa since I don’t have a carded 3 3/4” Jawa in my collection and picked up a Sith Trooper.

There are no Ollie’s where I live, which is a shame. I would probably bite on one of those Saw Guerrera packs.

Your PM's are full. I saw a few at Ollies last week, so I could probably go back and get one if you want. Just PM me if interested.
