Last week, requestors for the Mailaway Prototype Boba Fett received notifications that due to the overwhelming popularity of this promotion an additional batch run of figures have to be produced in order to fulfill orders. Those that received this notification can expect to receive their figure(s) at the end of July.

After an anguishing drought, TRU has started to receive shipments of new figures… as always your mileage may vary, but in these troubled times it’s a breath of fresh air to walk into a store and know there’s a chance it could be stocked with new product!
