I picked up a BB8, some die cast figures and vehicles, a couple of black series figures, a big xwing toy, a kylo saber (the $30 ultra fx one) and some clothes for the kiddos. The kids Kylo hoodie from the disney store is awesome! I wish they had it in adult size.
I also made my first re-venture into star wars Legos and picked up the massive Slave 1. Another expensive addiction...check.

Went crazy with stuff for the kids. Bladebuilders, action figures, a bike, puzzles, socks, underwear. The 25 dollars off a 100 at target was nice since they let us break up the order into two purchases. I picked up a Figuarts Kylo Ren and black series Kylo Ren for myself. Now if I could find some sabers on sale I would be set lol.

Ok, so after all is said and done my Force Friday Bundle looks like this:

3 Figurines (Darth Vader, Storm Trooper and Finn) - For the shelves
1 Talking Plush Chewbacca - For the baby girl (17 months old)
1 Force Awakens Monopoly set - For Family time
1 Obi Wan Kenobi Blade builder saber - For the baby girl (So she will stop trying to touch my SF sabers :P )
1 Red Diffused Day Blade from Vader's Vault - For Daddy's trip to Comic Con on Oct 8th
1 Novel (Aftermath) - For Daddy 'cause I likes to get my Star Wars read on
1 SF 12w+ Red Champion Weathered Disciple - For my lil man who has been asking for one since my first one arrived. *Not pictured here - the wait begins...

Here's the haul from the Afadir/ThylacineWings household:




That is:

- A Kylo Ren black series ForceFX saber
- An RC Millennium Falcon
- An RC X-Wing
- TWO RC speeder bikes (Thy's idea.. "because we have to have races")
- A Wookiee onesie for Thy
- A hoodie
- A t-shirt
- A pair of boxers (also for Thy)
- A box of cereal, and
- A preorder reservation for Battlefront

And, of course, there's still my Blood Orange Champion Bane (currently stuck in "shipped" limbo), and Thy's Hero Tier Reborn going-to-be Pikesaber on the way.

So, yeah... no responsible adults in this house. :cheer:

ya know... one of the ONE things I thought that I knew I wanted was that BB-8 Sphero, but then I just found out that the unit itself doesn't make any sound, only the app on your phone as you use it.

I thought that seemed pretty lame. I would almost rather have the "not as smooth" Target BB-8 thats half as much and DOES have sound.

Hmmmm.... what to do...

Yeah that was a little disappointing, but it is still crazy fun to play with.

i bet so... it'll be a tough choice!

looking at the Hasbro/Target one... it seems like it flails around a LOT, really unbalanced.

So, my son bought himself one of the new Lego Tie Fighters.

I had heard from previous posts that they were now two-man ships, but for some reason, I had it in my head that was two side-by-side. No sir! They are back to back, each with control over forward, and rearward facing lasers, thereby addressing an old, and obvious tactical weakness in a dogfight! Now, a rebel fighter that lines up for a shot from behind can be blown out of the sky trying! This would force pilots to attack from its flanks or directly from above/below. Of course with the maneuverability of these things, that could be a pretty hard shot.
Imagine what you will know tomorrow....

I envy all you guys and your Force Friday pickups. I'm sitting here... broke, for one, and for two, the stores in my area won't be getting any new SW merchandise for another week or two. Prolly until after the new year for items like the rarer Lego sets and the BB-8 droid... which of course are the items I want. lol

Good thing there's amazon for when I can afford it...
