Toys”R”Us as posted their upcoming Black Friday Circular on their facebook page. Not a whole lot of “new” deals to be had on Star Wars merchandise as they are again trying to unload those Legacy Collection ARC-170 and Clone Wars Y-Wings, but if you still need them and your store still has them, they will be on sale for 50% off. They will also be offering 50% off select Legacy/Clone Wars Battle Packs and the Grievous Roll-Playing Lightsaber.
