6″ Black Series Sabine Holsters and Legs Variant
It appears that there are two different sculpts for the 6″ Black Series Sabine Wren figure in circulation. One utilizes a peg on the back side of the holsters to secure into the side of the thighs, while the other version doesn’t not have the pegs and holes. Which do you have? Let us know in the comment section.
Thanks to Instagram follower Casey B. for bringing this to our attention.

Toyguide Update: BB-8 (Holiday Edition) Mini Bust (2016 PGM Exclusive)
The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today as we take a look at the 2016 Premier Guild Exclusive BB-8 (Holiday Edition) Mini Bust from Gentle Giant.
PROS: Excellent sculpting and deco, and the lights are a perfectly festive touch. LED lights are bright and the button batteries are included (preinstalled). 3 lighting modes give the collector options, although I suspect most will choose the solid (non-flashing) setting.
CONS: Must be a PG Member to purchase ($120) which will probably drive the after market price higher in the future. Fragile antennae could easily break if not handled properly.
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery (and our YouTube page for a video) to judge for yourself whether this bust is worth adding to your collection.
