Intel gathered indicates that the above clip is from a hand-painted prototype, and the actual production piece will be even higher quality than we see here. They are also in the process of improving the LED feature.
Preorders will remain open through the end of June. If you are wanting to ensure you have this piece, you can place your order here.
Yakfinities #79 ended in March, and we’ve finally gotten the Roundup Report compiled and random winners declared.

If you have a Gamestop store in your neck of the woods, it might be worth your time to see if they have any TVC X-Wings in stock – their Daily Deal has this item with an incredible markdown… only $18.99 + tax.
A new Yakfinities Customizing Challenge has launched in our forums. The theme is Interwar Characters.
For example, a custom of Obi Wan Kenobi after Order 66 as he watched over Luke on Tatooine. Or, perhaps a custom of Lando after he lost the Falcon to Han? What was Admiral Ackbar up to during his retirement? Or how about trying to make a custom of one of Luke Skywalker’s Jedi students?
Head on over to the forums to submit your custom, or see what others have already created under this theme after the jump!
Hasbro added a little feature to the TVC Tantive IV playset that is easy to overlook… an envelope containing ten (10) removable foot pegs is included.
The envelope is not very obvious, so make sure you look for it before disposing of any packaging. There are also slots under the floor panel to store them.
Collectors can now pose their figures in dynamic poses without interfering with the overall aesthetics of the set. Thank you to our readers / forum members for calling this out.
