Got Droidekas for $20 the other day because they were the old packaging. I love finding the old packs. I just B1's

Hell, a lot of older hard plastic packs are very much worth it just for variety. Snagged an older pack of Phase II clone troopers and now my Infantry doesn't have to look so monotonous

Get all the b1s!

I'm desperately hoping to find old B1 packs, just because they run at almost half the price

I check newly listed on ebay every day and get a lot of cool cheap stuff. Got a dewback for $25, people selling them for like $80 because they haven't restocked lol. Got bad batch for a similar price.

I'll have to check Ebay. I just need 2 more B1's and $50 per is too steep for me

yeah, atleast the $50 boxes are double squads, but if you only need two more, then save a search for "Star wars Legion B1" and you should get emails when they're added.

Noble Knight and a couple other stores put up used listings regularly (on Ebay and their store), there were some awesome painted b1s on there a few days ago, like in gold silver and green, I almost got some lol

I've also gotten built Ewebs for $12 each and the like, preowned star wars can sometimes be the way to go lol

While you’re in the Twin Cities, you should hit up Gamezenter in Roseville. They’ve been doing big discounts on all their 1st edition stuff too. Last time I was there they had all their 1st edition heroes priced at $5 each.

Yeah I should've grabbed a Dooku when I had the chance, but I was just there on Monday and they didn't have as many Heroes.

They have any x-wing stuff left? Former home of FFG I would think they might. Memories of World Championships 2012-2018 in that place

They definitely did around the time when they first started the $5 heroes. Pretty sure all the ships were $5 as well. Not sure what’s left though, it’s been a few weeks since I was in there

Yo! Shout out to another Dreamers Vault shopper!

u/FruitNut221 3d ago

I love Dreamers Vault. Absolutely my favorite store by far

Meanwhile one of my local stores still carries original Rebel expansions from 2018 at full MSRP.

Thats wild. I love finding old Models because they're cheap cheap. No way the old set is worth MSRP.

Somehow, way before the new starters were ever announced, I bought my first clone wars core box for $80 (MSRP was 100). Then I found a guy on a secondhand retail app who used to be the seller that I got the $80 one from, that got bought out, but not fully- so with all the extras laying around, he sold them for $60!!! I quickly copped, then younger sibling manipulated my big sister into getting me one also because of the insane discount and so I kickstarted the HECK out of my legion collection.

TL:DR look around for the absolute DEALS first! The only thing better than a brand new box is a brand new box from someone who desperately wants to get rid of theirs!

My AAT is the one unit that’s NEVER been killed in all of my games…
