Bring on the Blurrg

We’re getting closer to the premier of The Mandalorian series, and some more Hasbro related items connected to the show will be coming in the near future.

So… how about a Blurrg? Would you be interested in seeing Hasbro introduce this into their TVC lineup? Or TBS? Or… both? Share your thoughts after the jump!

Note: The toy Blurrg shown above is a 3.75″ scale custom sculpted piece by Owen Driscoll, circa 2002.

Yakfinities #74 Has Begun

Our latest Customizing Challenge is in full swing now, and the theme is Wanted Individuals (criminals, Jedi outcasts, figures you want Hasbro to make, etc.).

Head on over to the forums to check out the submissions thus far – and as always, we’d be honored if you would join us with your own customs entries.  Please remember though, only new customs for this theme should be entered.

Episode 9 TVC “Wave 2” Orders Arriving from Amazon

If you pre-ordered the latest TVC offerings via Amazon, you might be receiving them this week, so keep an eye on your inboxes for shipping notices.

Personal Note:  Hopefully it won’t be long before these begin showing up at retail too!  The more of a visual presence Star Wars action figures of all scales have in stores and in front of consumers, the better.  Kids aren’t going to ask their parents for toys that they don’t ever see… the hobby always does better when it appeals to a broader audience than just adult collectors who have to resort to ordering online.

Older Star Wars Stock Galore
