SAGA TOYS in St. Louis
If you’re anywhere near the St. Louis area, I have to recommend you check out SAGA TOYS.
I’ve personally already picked up many items from this collector (and kid!) friendly store and will continue to make them one of my weekly stops.
This place has a fantastic variety of loose and carded toys across a variety of brands such as Star Wars, GI JOE, Transformers, LEGO and more. The prices are very fair too.
Be sure to check them out if you’re in the area, and “like” their Facebook Page!
New Enloe Trials Adventure Approaching
An all new story in the adventures of fan-fiction character Rykrof Enloe will soon be posted in the Yakface forums. Catch up on the most recent chapter before this one kicks off by clicking here!
Custom Kylo Ren/”Matt” Radar Technician Figures
It was only a matter of time. Since the hilarious Undercover Boss: Starkiller Base skit aired on SNL last weekend, customizers have taken the initiative in creating action figure versions of Kylo Ren as “Matt” the Radar Technician. SlashGear.com has posted an article that features an image we shared via social media last night and have posted another giving “Matt” the Black Series treatment.
If this doesn’t scream convention exclusive or at least cosplay material, we’ve failed as a fandom.
The Enloe Trials: New Previews
Another chapter in The Enloe Trials Photonovel Series is nearing completion and will soon be posted in the Yakface Forums. Until then, full size previews are available after the jump!

Fan-Fiction Photonovel Stories Update
All the attention is around The Force Awakens, but we’d be remiss to not mention that there have been some great new fan-fiction stories being shared in the photonovel section of our forums recently .
Forum member CloneCrazy has recently shared the latest installment in his Will Of The Force series, and Jodo has also posted a new chapter in his Era of Darkness saga.
With great special effects, custom figures, dioramas and creative storytelling, both of these artists continue to up their game – check out their latest efforts and other fan stories in the Yakface Forums after the jump!
Beware of Fused Joints on 3.75″ Black Series Finn
While it was a nice surprise finding Wal-Marts latest wave of 3.75″ Black Series today, the excitement quickly turned to aggravation once opening Finn… I picked up two of this figure, and both had fused right elbow joints.
The first one snapped immediately – the second one I was able to save only through my experience with customizing. Hopefully this doesn’t turn out to be a widespread issue… but please share your experiences after the jump!
