Here is your reminder that the SDCC Exclusive Black Series AT-RT with ARF Trooper ($79.99) and the Vintage Collection Anakin Skywalker & Asajj Ventress Set ($51.99) release tomorrow, August 10, @ 1pm ET (Premium Members) / August 11 @ 1pm ET (General Public) at Hasbro Pulse.
UPDATE: Now available for Pulse Premium Members only.
The next release for Droid Factory Build-A-Droid Series 2 is now available with the release of R0-M1 and RJ-83 Droid Factory Figure Set from Star Wars Young Jedi Adventures.
UPDATE: SOLD OUT
In case that wasn’t enough, or Black Series isn’t your bag, plenty of Vintage Collection items are also arriving in the U.S.. If history is any indicator, the late summer and early fall will be murder on wallets and shelf space once again.
Since Hasbro cannot be bothered to provide realistic shipping dates, I’ll say that that all of these figures are now arriving in the U.S.. (Release date is supposed to be November.) Plan accordingly.
UPDATE: The Halloween Edition Black Series figures are all here also.
Disney has announced a new Droid Factory astromech, R7-D23 available later this month for D23 and Disney Store. Check out the link for info on this release as well as other D23 merchandise.
The annual Halloween-theme Droid Factory figure, R2-WRWLF “Werewolf”, is now available at DisneyStore.com.
Preorders now open for new Vintage Collection and Black Series items from The Mandalorian and Grogu announced last week at SDCC.

Preorders open at 1pm ET (July 27) for most of the Vintage Collection and Black Series items announced last week at SDCC.
In case you missed my post on social media over the weekend regarding SDCC news and coverage, I’m taking a step back from around the clock duties on Yakface and its social channels to focus on my mental health surrounding this hobby/Hasbro. I fear that if I allow myself to continue with this bitter attitude that has been festering for a while now regarding Hasbro in general, I’ll rage quit altogether. I’m not ready for that. Yet.
A heartfelt thanks for your continued support by using our affiliate links.
