Again, I really loved the sculpt of the Luke; in the black outfit from that final lightsaber, he really looks better than any other incarnations of that figure.

I didn't realize sets like that could still be found in stores. Was that in a clearance section, or with the other SW toys?

Also, while I find it insanely difficult to deal with most people on it, the Faceook Marketplace is somewhere I've gotten some AMAZING deals. My most recent one was the Original Trilogy Collection Millennium Falcon, in its box, for a whopping $30. I couldn't believe I'd gotten it that cheap. I had a 1977 Falcon donated from a friend that I was slowly restoring, but this one is so much better with the lights and sounds. It is missing a few minor pieces, but with ebay, I should be able to track them down soon...and I think the 1977 Falcon's pieces fit right on this one, which makes it even easier to complete.

I might be getting ripped off more than I'm finding deals. From Target, my most recent acquisitions were: Black Series Luke Skywalker with base for $14 or 15. And the Rogue One 12" figures (six) for $25. Probably should have passed on the latter. Oh, and also Qui-Gon/Maul 2-pack (I think Force Link?) for $15.
From Half-Price Books, I got a 3.75" Anakin Skywalker (more a pre-Mustafar Vader) for $6.
And then I ordered some of the Dark Empire figures from Amazon, each around $14-16 (clone Emperor, Luke, and Leia), this week.
There were some other figures I ordered as "add-ons" from Amazon a month or so back. Holographic Emperor for around $5. 3.75" Rey and Jyn for about $1.50-$2 each. Funko Pop Director Krennic for $4 and change.
And from Best Buy, $3 Kylo Ren Funko Pop and $5 Sabine Wren in clearance.
The other figure I picked up was Black Series Darth Revan for $21. Maybe not a deal, but I wasn't sure if I should wait around and feared price would go up at some point.
So it sounds like Target is maybe a place I should keep my eye on for some cool SW stuff at good prices?
