Tonight we spotlight the latest diorama by forum member Luke Sprywalker, which includes a custom made Gonk droid – this masterpiece looks like Sideshow quality to me and it’s a true shame they’ve never started making environments like this for the scales that Hasbro produces. Head on over to the forums and feast your eyes on all the pics he’s provided, including “work in progress” shots.
The current Yakfinities Customizing Challenge rolls on – Space Pirates! So far we’ve had many great entries and hope to see plenty more!
Entering a custom is easy – all you need to do is make a new custom of a Space Pirate of your choice, and share pics in our forums before the end of March.
Hasbro may be ignoring the diorama and playset market, but as we know, others are not – such as forum member Raylen, who is now offering up a great custom door that fits in great with many Star Wars environments, like Echo Base. He hints that more offerings are on the way, and I have a feeling based on this first item that those that jump on board with these items are going to be very pleased. Head on over to the forums to find out how you can place your order!
Not only is the Galactic Merchants team filling a huge void in collecting by creating great dioramas for collectors, but they’re also remembering the people who pushed to helped promote their efforts by giving a special thanks to us on their new packaging. It’s things like this that go to show what a great community Star Wars fans are.
For those of you that have received your sets so far, we want to hear about it and see your displays! Head on over to the forums and share your pics like others are doing. And if you haven’t received your set just yet, I know they appreciate your patience. This is a huge undertaking for these guys but they are really working hard to make each and every customer is happy with their order.

Head on over to the forums for the full report!
We’ve got another great Concept Series mockup by localgotal, which entails another great group of figures that Hasbro should release in a multi-pack. I can only wonder how much better the Star Wars brand might be doing at retail these days if ideas such as these were actually available at retail by the folks at Hasbro rather than many of the decisions they’ve made the past couple years. Head on over to the forums and share your thoughts!
The first Yakfinities Customizing Challenge of 2014 is underway! This should be a fun one, so get out those customizing supplies and show us what you’re capable of!

We’ve got another great Concept Series mockup by localgotal, which entails a group of figures that Hasbro should release in a multi-pack. I contend that fans of Star Wars would rather see sets like this than Geonosis Jedi packs. What do you think? Would you fork over your hard earned dollars for sets like these?
