For those of you who don’t care about my personal toy hunts, please visit your favorite internet pornography site until my next update. For the rest of you, I’m proud to say that my clone-less toy hunt streak has finally ended with the capture of two new troopers.
Lately, I’ve had zero luck finding any of the new clones. Today I just happened to leave work early (as I am sick) and I went to Target to pick up the finest sinus medication that money could buy. When I spotted a lone Padme Amidala as I approached the toy section, I knew that a new assortment had arrived recently. Had I gotten there on time? A quick search revealed the truth. To my amazement, I found two clone troopers that I’d never seen waiting for me on the peg hooks and not in the hands of some other greasy, less deserving Star Wars nerd.

Pictured left is the Elite Corps Clone Trooper, who is most famous for fighting under Yoda and then failing to gun him down. Chumps. The Clone on the right is the Combat Repaint… I mean Combat Engineer. I’m not sure, but I believe that the Engineer has already made an appearance in a Wal-Mart exclusive three pack when Revenge of the Sith came out on DVD. Fellow Star Wars nerds, please correct me if I’m wrong.
While I’m still hunting after a few more troopers, it makes me feel good that I actually was able to find at least two of them without having to resort to paying high prices from either an online retailer or eBay. Shewww. Next on the list: Clone Trooper Sergeant, Commander Appo, and whatever clone related figure Hasbro has up its sleeve.
