For probably about the third time, I’m buying up Star Wars Miniatures. This time it started with the LGS marking down the Rebels and Imperials boosters to $3. Then, The Force Unleashed was released, and then the Target exclusive Battle for Hoth search began. Originally, I was trading off anything that wasn’t Original Trilogy (OT) stuff, then I purchased the Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Campaign Guide for the Saga Edition RPG. Reading that, I got a refreshed view of Star Wars and I started buying Knights of the Old Republic boosters. It’s become quite the addiction and thankfully the (awesome) wife is cool with it. Unlike the other miniatures games I play, these are assembled, painted, and come with cards with the stats on them. There’s something to be said for opening a box and playing with miniatures right then and there. Still, I’m not sure what I’m going to do with the figures. I might play the game (after I laminate the maps I have) or I might just use the figures for RPG purposes. In either case, I do so enjoy opening a booster and pulling a Very Rare even if I have no idea who the character is (i.e., Jolee Bindo).
