Reports are starting to trickle in from around the country that Toys”R”us stores are putting out their latest cool exclusive out! Forum member Aaylasecurasman scored them today in Arizona, and I was lucky too and found them in St. Louis tonight… and with today’s one day coupon for Buy 1 Get 1 75% off any Hasbro Star Wars item there, the second one was only $5.50!
Hopefully things at retail this Fall will be better than the first 8 months of the year…?
UPDATE – Loose pics have now been added, including a size comparison to the old speederbike mold.

I headed over to my local (Minnetonka, MN) Toys”R”Us over lunch today to satiate my new found Fighter Pods addiction and lucked into a case of TVC/Lost Line figures. This was my first encounter with these at retail so with the new Speeder Bike, Ewok and Yavin pilots hitting, it’s best you too head to your local Toys”R”Us.
Our friends at Star Wars Action News alerted us to a great deal valid today only for Toys”R”Us Rewards Members. Purchase any Star Wars Action figure, playset or accessory and get a second for 75% off!
On Sunday night Star Wars Celebration was winding down, but the Collectors’ Social Area still had hundreds of people pouring through trying to complete their Star Tots collection! Marjorie, Arnie, Berent, Jay, and Steve were all there handing out Star Tots but as the line grew longer the Star Wars Action News team took a break to reflect on the end of Star Wars Celebration VI. In this final episode of Celebration coverage, Marjorie, Arnie, Berent, Steve, and Scott from Tulsa reflect on the high points of C6, discuss Celebration Europe 2 in Germany, the release of both Episodes II and III in 3-D in 2013, and the SWAG they got and missed.
Listen to this episode of Star Wars Action News, then share YOUR thoughts on Celebration. If you attended, what did you love? What did you see? Who did you meet? If you didn’t attend, will you be attending Celebration Europe 2? Are you excited by the expedited release of the prequels? What did you think of Detours?
