Forbes has posted an exclusive story revealing the Star Wars Hero Mashers line (along with several other properties).
Hasbro saw enough success with their IP-connected Hero Masher lines that they’ll be introducing toys from this year’s hottest films and franchises, adding Jurassic World and Star Wars: Rebels to the Hero Mashers universe as well as expanding the Marvel Heroes with Mashers from Disney’s Avengers: Age of Ultron.

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.
Most stores receive at least one delivery each week, and are often getting in a few Black Series figures with each shipment – just today, reader Darth Stringfield spotted at one Walgreens store a more interesting selection of figures than I’ve seen at all the local Target stores combined over the past year.
How are those Store Finds going? Let us know in the forums!

Thanks to Scott from Tulsa for the tip!
The Target Exclusive AT-DP with AT-DP Driver now has a placeholder page on their website. It is currently unavailable for order but its listing should give indication that we can expect it in the next couple weeks. Remember, this item shares a DPCI (087-06-1832) with other exclusive and non-exclusive Class II vehicles so a DPCI will not guarantee finding a store with this set.
Thanks to Jedi Temple Archives for the heads-up.
New images for S.H.Figuarts’ Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight) have been released giving collectors a better look at the overall sculpt, proportions and accessories of this piece. Hat tip to them for including swappable head/portraits for Luke giving the option of a natural or windswept look. Click on through for a few images and thanks to Sith_Fire30 for the heads up.
