After exercising great logic and control with Eldritch Horror, I have not been as successful with Star Wars Destiny.
The sales are coming and I have found some of the first three (black) blister packs for as low as $35au. That is about 15% of original or to put it another way, about 1 die and 5 cards for just under $1au.
So where have I ended up?
3 Spirit of Rebellion and Awakenings boxes and 2 Empire at war packs, 3 Draft boxes, 4 starters and a two player starter, several loose cards and some die from Big Orbit, that have already started to arrive totally about 400 dice and 1000 cards.
Wow, that was quick.
Only a part of it and more coming.
Did I win?
Still not sure as Vader eludes me but 5 of the boosters are still to come, so here is hoping. The two Awakenings boxes arrived (which makes 3 or to put it the other way, 108 dice, 168 cards), and still no Vader!
Need to stop.
Have enough.
No Vader is a shame, no actually, it is a lesson on the frutility of chasing single cards in this wilderness. Just happy I did not spend $500+ to get to the same place.
Ed. A Vader and a few other hard to gets have been found, all paid way too much for, but oh well swings and round-abouts. Also just orderred a Black Friday special Across The Galaxy blister box, with I guess about a 1:5 chance of getting that mean Vader.
