I'm not a massive collector of the modern stuff. Mainly because a lot of it is overpriced tat (3.75" figure range in particular). The Black Series and Elite Series are something else, though.
I'm currently in the US and happened to find myself staring at a large pile of Elite Series figures. I then found myself at the till with a Grievous, a Boba Fett and a Rey. I really don't like the prequels but the General Grievous figure is something else. The Fett is also an incredible figure. And how could I not want a Rey/BB8 combo?? Especially as it weighs over a kilo
I then checked out on disneystore.co.uk what else there was and whether it was worth buying more here. In short, for the common ones; no! They seem to be 20% off in the UK at the moment at £15.16 whereas to buy them here is $24.95 (about £17.83) and I'd have to carry them back.
What I did notice, though, was there was no Boba Fett, Darth Vader, Darth Maul or General Grievous in the UK stores. What's the reason for this and are then ever going to release them in the UK or is it a US only thing?
