... Do you really need the same exact one? How about "one without a broken hand?"
They can't guarantee I'll get a Gamorrean Guard back, instead, I might get a Besbin Pilot or some other figure I have no want for.

You can't just take it back to where you got it?

Damn, that's a terrible customer service department. I remember the good ol' days of 90's youth where sending a letter requesting replacement accessories for Jurassic Park dinosaurs would often result in multiple accessories or occassionally entire new figures or dinosaurs just being shipped to my house.
My GF bought him for me via ebay as part of an anniversary present because she knows I've been hunting for him. I have yet to see the figure in stores. She would be hurt if I sent him in and got a different figure in return. I decided to just glue his hand on and hope to find another, he needs a buddy to help guard Jabba anyways.

have picked up quite a bit over the last week or so...embo, undead genosian, fett, vos, sing, kit fisto, flamethrower troop and mandalorian warrior (x4). the clone wars line is kicking all kinds of ass right now imo. so many good figures coming out. really dig the added articulation on fisto as well.
Not sure if this has been posted yet but this morning I found Jabba the Hutt Throne Playset marked down to $19.00 at the Albany, GA Super Walmart. Not sure if this is just a local sale or nationwide. Might be a good time to pick up this OG!

Walmart is very hit-and-miss when it comes to clearance (prices and clearance status vary from store to store), but it's good to know that it's starting to be clearanced out.

Freaked Out
Wal-Mart makes no sense. They'll leave the pegs full of Iron Man 2 figures for almost a year, with no movement at all, but they reduce a playset that's only been out for 2 or 3 months. Don't get me wrong. It's nice to be able to buy the Star Wars stuff I want, cheaper, but don't you think it hurts the availability of inventory in the future when Wal-Mart decides to order SW stuff from Hasbro. You know, maybe some dude in an office somewhere says "You know we never sold those Jabba sets, so maybe we shouldn't order this new set coming out", when in reality the damn store never even gave it a chance. It just seems whacked out if you ask me...

The closest near me still has it at 38. Bastards.

Did you scan it? It should be nineteen everywhere.

Yeah, the one near me that still had them didn't have anything showing that it was on sale, but once you scan it, it should read as 19.00

Are you on the square?
More Vintage Target exclusive sets coming this spring. Pictures from Sandtroopers.com.

I just wish all three sets were from Star Wars.

Thanks for the heads up. Off to Wally World. Hope they still have it.

My local Wal-Mart (on the US side) has two AT-AT on clearance for $69.

Yeah, I found some for that price, I resisted though. Does anyone have it already? out of the box, how is it? Worth $69?

Can't imagine it wouldn't be worth it if you collect/like the modern 3 3/4" figures. I've heard nothing but good things about it.
