Wednesday's haul

I took the day off today since class was cancelled because the prof is going to play the trumpet in some parade lol. I went for a toy run drive today and it was great! The weather was awesome and it was just relaxing since I finally finished my three weeks of midterm with the last one being on Monday.

AND I FINALLY found the Ice-cream truck twins!!! I actually didn't even bother looking through the TF's for it because I've been looking for it for so long and I've never even SEEN it before. I dropped by Walmart today to pick up some vitamins (again) and checked out the toys isle as always. I was actually looking for some clone troopers. Then some lady that was looking at TF's asked me if Bumblebee turns into a car (he's displayed as robot mode in the packaging), turns out she's here to buy one for her son, so I ended up helping her out for a while. She ended up getting a Swerve, hope her son likes it! Anyways then I was like what the heck and looked through the TF's and there it was...a single Ice-cream truck on the whole shelf and now it's mine! Didn't find the Star Wars figures I was looking for at the first Walmart though, but ended up getting them at another one after. The R2D2 is really cool because it has an LED eye that lights up and has sounds when you press the button on its "chest".



Now my troop car is full! Okay fine, there's still enough side pegs for 2 more, but I've got all the clones I wanted that are available here now.

    The 501st trooper is a good one. Which Star Wars figures are you looking for?

    @Mario: Oh these were the ones I was looking for, I just didn't find them at the first Walmart I went to, but luckily both of them were at another Walmart I went to after. And ya I agree, the 501st troopers are so cool. Do you know if there's a single carded trooper with the orange paint scheme?

    There's the Utapau trooper from the Saga Collection which came out a few years ago: http://www.rebelscum.com/tsc026clone.asp
    And from the Clone Wars, there's the 212th trooper:

    Also, both animated and realistic versions of Commander Cody.
    Otherwise, I can't think of any more. There may be others, my clone collection is far from exhaustive.

    Thanks! Oh man I need one of those Utapau troopers, but I doubt I will be able to find one now. Hmm...maybe I could just paint myself one...

    I was so close about getting the ice cream truck on my last shopping but I didn't due to budget. Nice troopers. Where you get that retro looking car they sit on?

    @saruman: Thanks! Ya I was so glad I finally found them, now I think I got all I want from ROTF, at least until the new waves in 2010.

    @Leon: The troop car is from the Indiana Jones toy line. It's such an awesome toy and it's awesome that the clones fit so nicely in it haha.
