Yakfinities #84 Continues

Our current Yakfinities Customizing Challenge is in full swing, and runs through the end of November.

The customizing theme this round is anything that fits into the idea of “Adventurers and Explorers” – so as long as your custom entry is a new creation and fits into the theme, it qualifies!

Head on over to the forums out the current submissions, and of course to submit your own!

GameStop Delaying Orders for TBS Duel of the Fate 3pk for the Third Time

First it was October 24, then November 4, then November 11 and now the latest release date for the Gamestop exclusive Black Series Duel of the Fates 3pk with Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Darth Maul is November 22.

Hasbro Reassembles Mash-Up Figure Line with Star Wars MixMashers

Hasbro will be revisiting the mash-up concept in 2025 with Star Wars MixMashers. As you may recall, they previously had a line called Hero Mashers which are essentially the same as these new figures. Parts can be mixed and matched across various figures and lines (Marvel and Transformers). Here is the descriptive copy to explain it further:
