ToyMan Collector Show Returns
The ToyMan Collector Show is back in St. Louis on Sunday, May 13. With over 180 dealer tables, you never know what Star Wars, GI Joe, or Transformers items you might find, and often at great prices. For more details, click on the image above.
Malgus Wave at HasbroToyShop
If you can afford to drop over a hundred bucks for five new figures and a lot of completely pointless carry forwards that are warming pegs at retail across planet Earth, TVC Wave 3 is up for pre-order at Hasbrotoyshop.com
The 10th Anniversary of SAGA
It’s hard to believe it, but a decade has passed since the AOTC line officially launched at retail.
Personally, I can recall a night of hitting every Wal-Mart in my area looking for that dang Royal Guard, and hearing some guy bragging about how he found two of them at a different Wal-Mart… only the next morning, to find that Toy”R”us had gotten in dozens of that assortment, and feeling relieved, but broke!
Feel free to relive the excitement of that launch in our forums or at the message board at Jeditemplearchives, and special thanks to forum member Darth Eddie for the reminder!
Suggestions for Hasbro!
Remember when the Legends lines were fun and Hasbro found a way to appeal to both collectors and kids? When we actually looked forward to walking into the toy aisle?
Collector frustration continues to rise, so we’re going to start throwing some new ideas toward Hasbro in the forums, and we’re starting things off with a bit of a rant with how they’ve handled Movie Heroes so far this year and how it could have been handled better.
Sound off in the forums with your thoughts, and even your own ideas after the jump!

Yakfinities #44 – Cloud City Denizens
Another new Customizing Challenge has just launched in the forums, and runs all the way through the end of June!
This gives customizers three months to create a custom for the latest theme, Cloud City Denizens… all you have to do is make a custom of a character that lives on Cloud City, or simply a traveler passing through — established or completely fan-fiction — it’s up to you!
So, whether you’re a seasoned veteran customizer or new to this great part of the hobby, join in the fun after the jump!
Upcoming Figures Hit eBay
Our friends at JediDefender.com and JediTempleArchives.com have shared information regarding an ebayer who has several auctions going on currently for upcoming figures of Nom Anor, Aayla Secura, Dr. Evazan, Kithaba, and the upcoming 501st Clone Trooper.
Other than Hasbro’s lazy effort with the ginormous helmet on the clone, this looks like some of Hasbro’s finest work. Head on over to Jedi Defender or Jedi Temple Archives for the auction links and share your thoughts in the Yakface Forums!
