Can you tell things are slow right now??? Click the image above to print your own to display with your Star Wars Rebels figures. They are toys after all, right? Hasbro, if you make a Rebels Lando figure, can you include a puffer pig, too?

Toy runs at places like Wal-Mart and Target may be a complete waste of time for most of us, but if you have Walgreens stores in your area, it’s definitely worth swinging by to see what the situation is.
