So Star Wars is awesome. When I was a kid and the special re-release of the original trilogy came out, I snatched up a bunch of the figures that were released along with it. Today a friend and I were out and about and we found a comic shop that had just about every one of those figures from 1997 mint and in box.
Of course we bought some with whatever cash we had on hand. I always prided myself, even as a kid, on having the less commonly known or less popular characters, like Grand Moff Tarkin, Dengar, Snoot, etc.
I got Ponda Baba and Admiral Ackbar today, my friend got Luke on a speeder bike and IG-88. Probably will go back and get others later. They had Porkins, Bossk, the rancor keeper, everything. They also had some other cool figures, like some He-Man and Thundercats, Star Trek, Dr. Who.
I guessed a lot of you had some Star Wars figures, or at least some other movie/TV show figures.
