This morning I needed Nomi Sunrider to finish my set. Opened a booster today, and wouldn't you know it there she was. :atat:

Now to start working on KotoR...

I wish my luck was that good. Stop stealing all the luck Boris!

I finished Clone Strike like that. I'd made it down to needing only Yoda to finish the set right around the time the reprint came out. Finally made it to a store that had some and bought one booster. Pulled Yoda and my first pulled ARC Trooper.

Glad you were able to find her, sorry I couldn't be any help =o/

Well my luck this week has been crazy.... Ruthven sent the last piece I needed in a trade Luke Force Spirit..... For some reason he stopped in New Bedford Illionois for a 5 day vacation there.... Just crazy but he is back enroute and in the state of Missouri

I still would love to know what happened to it for those 5-6 days, Dean. figures the first time I have any issues with shipping a piece in a trade it is when I am sending to you

Awesome luck. I've never been able to collect EVERY rare from the sets, but i'm almost finished with the TFU set and Rebel Storm. Just need Jabba the Hutt and Shaak Ti Jedi Master. One time I got two boxes of TFU and I got 2 Darth Revans. Most people would say it's good luck but not when you've got 3.

Its not that bad. Revan is tradable for pretty much any other mini you'd want.

In a game involving dice, I will always take luck over being good. If you are ungodly lucky, then you can be an inferior player and still pull out games.

Anyways, good pull Boris, I used to be able to do that in the ole SWCCG. I named 3 rares back to back and pulled them in order in 3 boosters. My friend was astounded.

Good goin' Boris. I completed Rebel Storm like that. Bought 'one last booster' off eBay, and despite all the rumours of eBay shops taking out the VRs I pulled the one mini I needed - Boba Fett!

I'll certainly agree with emr131 on luck over skill. I normally play Dreadtech and we're evenly matched skill level wise, so luck (good or bad) almost always decides our games.

I had great luck in pulling the big name rares from Decipher's Star Wars and Star Trek games. Except Vader who i couldn't pull to save my life. I still can't.

I just got back into the decipher Trek game. Amazingly inexpensive, and just a riot to play. The game did creep into too many factions in my opinion.

I just need Boba MC to complete my set yet have had absolutly no luck! Sure, I'll pull multiple Cade Skywalkers, Darth Krayts, and Darth Caedus. Boba? Can't even pull one =o/
