Up for Grabs

My buddy Josh at Paradigm Thrift picked up this comic for me, but I already have it.  Anybody interested?

Up for Grabs

I accidentally acquired a second copy of Star Wars The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels for the Wii.  Its the one where you wave around the wii-mote like your lightsaber.  Anybody interested in a copy?

Up for Grabs

I have an extra Star Wars Secrets of the Jedi (gold foil logo edition) if anyone wants it.  Hardback book in great shape.

ASWCC Second Meeting

The second meeting was held on Monday, November 5th at the East Cobb Library.  We discussed the Disney/Lucasfilm merger and how it would affect future action figures and merchandising, as well as the Expanded Universe.

We wonder whether meeting on a different day of the week or at a different time would make it easier for people to make it to the meetings.  Any thoughts?  Feel free comment below about your schedule.

Also, please tell your friends about the club!  Who else could commiserate with you on how difficult it is to find spare parts to your Millenium Falcon figure?  Even if you are not a collector, it is fun to get together as Star Wars fans to discuss the latest toy releases, books, comics, Clone Wars episodes, massive buyout of Lucasfilm, etc. etc.

For Sale

Matt noticed that someone in Georgia is selling his Clone Trooper armor on CraigsList.  Supposedly it is 501st approved, but I have always heard that you buy at your own risk from non-vendors.  Here is the link with the information:

Merchandise Sightings

Original A New Hope Poster at the Salvation Army Thrift Store on Alpharetta Highway.  Still in cardboard and sealed up but some wear and tear around the bottom it looked like.  I think it was $19.99 I think... so probably not that good of a deal:

Merchandise Sightings

I was at the Goodwill on Mount Vernon Road in Sandy Springs, and I spotted a LEGO MTT-set.  The box was open, but all of the LEGO pieces are still sealed in their bags.  It cost around $100 from what I recall, and it was kept behind the counter with the more expensive items.  Pretty awesome, but I don't collect the LEGOs.




I was at B&R Thrift on Roswell Road in Sandy Springs and spotted a couple of items:

Star Wars Creepy Crawler Oven.  It looked like it was in decent shape.

There was also a toy Darth Vader lightsaber, that looked something like this, for about $2:

Then, there was also a child's Darth Vader mask that looked something like this:

Today I was able to pick up, for my own collection:

Battlefront I for the PS2
Battlefront II for Xbox
Pit Droids for PC
Galaxies Expansion I for PC
Lego Star Wars for GameCube
Rebel Strike GameCube

and a handful of books, including a coloring book, two game guides, and Anakin: Space Pilot with 3D glasses.

I did not find all of these things at one store-- I hit up several Goodwills, Salvation Army stores, and other thrift stores on Roswell Road from Sandy Springs on up into Roswell/Alpharetta.

I only spent about $35!  I regularly go on thrifting expeditions with my good buddy Joshua Mullinax at Paradigm Thrift.  He has amazing thrifting skills and luck.
