I owe my friend Paul from Jedi Temple Archives a debt of gratitude. He reported that fiVe BELoW stores were resetting with a wheelbarrow display filled with wave 3 and 6 of the vintage collection. A slightly out of the way trek to my nearest fiVe BELoW store paid dividend. I did not find wave 3, so no cheap Gamorrean Guards, but I did find wave 6 and was able to fill in some gaps in my carded collection I never thought I’d fill.
One such hole in my cared collection is the 212th Battalion Clone. I never added that figure to my personal mix because of the disgustingly green discolored helmets. The one I found today was a pristine white. This other report from Jedi Temple Archives explains why the helmet was not defective. TRUST ME. You want to click through and read that. It’s borderline shocking in a good way.
