So I stopped at wally world to admire the lack of Joes and when I checked out the SW section there were several packs of the Crimson Empire set with Carnor Jax and Kir Kanos. So I know I have been out of the loop on SW but I thought this was an EE internet exclusive, was there some point that they were anounced to be reaching retail and I missed it?

Anyway I hid one in the Barbies for when I have money :shifty:

This set is no longer an exclusive. You can tell it is a new run because the old ones had very cloudy visors while the ones showing up at retail have crystal clear visors (which, funny enough, give you a great view of the figures' foreheads as they are too high for their eyes :rotfl: ).

funny you mention this cause I got the new Snow Job(2 pegs in the stand) and it's visor is much more clear than the first release of him.

Hey Zed, if there's any extras could you snag me one?

Sorry I didn't get back to people yesterday, I had a trip all day and was really tired.

Anyway I did go back to WM and the packs were sold, unfortunatly my hidden one was found, so we are al SOL, but hopefully they will be appearing soon again.

I found these at Target tonight so it would seem that this isn't just a one off occurrence.

Awesome. I missed out on this pack when it was an EE exclusive, and I've been kicking myself ever since.

How much clearer does yours look? I picked up a newer one this weekend and can make out his facial features a little bit better, but not much. but it is clearer than the torpedo figure's mask.

Wow-- this is great news as I'd been debating the purchase of these for some time. Now, I can snag them at retail.
