I buy them by the case of 12 at EntertainmentEarth.com, have them shipped to the US then here, sometimes I don't keep all, specially this year that there are gonna be a lot of repacks (Hasbros way of makin money), so I sell them or trade them with other collectors, for example for these new ones, I purchased 36 figs in total and kept just 15. I also buy at amazon.com to get the Toys R Us exclusives and use ebay just to get figures from past collections as the current ones are more expensive there, at EE are about regular retail.

Nice collection. It's so bad I can't find thid figures in Turkey. I had Luke Skywalkers figure about 9-10 years ago but my mom give it to my cousine because I am too big to "play" with figures. I am still angry with her because of that.

Thnx.
I open them, theyre closed just for the pictures. Though from the last 2 collections (ROTS and this one) you can keep the boxes with the blisters almost intact and take out the figures, so because now I don't have a display I am keeping the figures in the case so i don't use more space.

First of all, the numbers, I just made a count of how many figs I have and it comes down to the number of 520 !!! between which there are:
25 Lukes, 17 Anakins, 16 Vaders, 21 Obis, 12 Yodas, 11 Palpatines, 10 R2s, 5 C-3POs, 14 Hans, 10 Chewies, 7 Padmes, 12 Leias, 44 Jedis, 15 Cantina Aliens, 18 Jabbas Aliens, 77 Clone Troopers, 11 Stormtroopers, etc.
The Army
George Lucas in Stormtrooper Disguise, to get the figure you must buy 5 other figs, mail the proof of purchase of each (they're different so you must buy the 5 different figs) and mail it with 5 bucks... i got it on ebay
Lucas Family Set. Starwarsshop.com exclusive, features Lucas and his sons in the characters of the cameos they made on EP III
POTJ Sandtrooper
Saga Rappertunie and J'Quille, the first one is from Jabba's Palace and the second from Jabba's Sail Barge
Stormtrooper Army Builder 10x
Utapau Clone Troopers, I already had 2 and bought this extra 3 here in Mexico, notice the difference in the box, this ones don't contain the backdrop and come in 3 languages
Bespin Vader and Tatooine Luke, from now on figures will come with red "holograms" instead of blue
Hem Dazon and Momaw Nandon who was already released but this is a new sculpt
Garindan (also re-released with a new sculpt) and Sandtrooper
R5-D4, new sculpt, if you twist its head an antenna pops out
X-Wing Power F/X, its an old ship, I've been wanting this for some years now as it comes better scaled and the sounds are pretty cool
Clone Wars Gunship, featured in the Cartoon Network series, its a Toys R Us exclusive.
