Yakfinities #78 has begun! The theme is The Imperial Remnant. Let your imagination run wild with customizing ideas for any sort of Imperial holdout forces following the Empire’s defeat at Endor.

New Diorama / Playset to be Revealed Soon?
Rebel spies have beamed a secret transmission that preorders may be opening later this month that should be of great interest to collectors who focus on action figure photography.
If reports are accurate, this will cater to the 1:12 scale crowd.
Yak’s Top Ten: The Prequel Trilogy
We are well aware that Hasbro is starting to dabble in repacking some figures from The Prequel Trilogy into The Vintage Collection. We’re even starting to see some more attention on The Clone Wars. However, many of us want to see Hasbro actually deliver all-new product from the prequel films still, so we have started a new Yak’s Top Ten in our forums focusing on The Prequel Trilogy!
What are the top ten figures that you most desperately want to see made in The Vintage Collection from The Prequel Trilogy? Post your TVC wish list HERE.
You can also do the same thing for the 6″ scale line in The Black Series. Post your 6″ TBS wish list right HERE.
Note: Wish lists may also be posted in the comments section of this article. You may post both a TVC and TBS list, but please do not post your wish lists in this comments section AND in the forums. And please remember to indicate if you’re referring to TVC or TBS with each list.
TVC Freezing Chamber In-Hand Pics and Thoughts
Hasbro’s TVC Freezing Chamber has been arriving on doorsteps via Gamestop the past few days. I snapped a few pics of a quick setup in the forums that you can see by clicking here.
Do you love this thing, or hate it? I’ve seen some passionate views noted on social media from both angles. Since I’ve been begging for collector oriented displays for over two decades now, I’m pretty excited to have this in my collection now. So, I’m biased for sure. Let us know what you think!

Yak’s Top Ten: The Original Trilogy Winners
The results are in for the most recent Yak’s Top Ten, which is none other than The Original Trilogy.
There was a different top placement in The Vintage Collection vs. The Black Series. In fact, barely any crossover was present between the two scales at all.
Check out which figures Yakface readers said they want to see made the most in The Vintage Collection by clicking HERE.
We have tallies for the most wanted additions to The Black Series as well, check out the 6-inch scale results by clicking HERE.
Another Yak’s Top Ten has just kicked off in the forums. We’ll be posting those details soon.
BB-BOO20 Arriving
Yakface reader vikingrobot reports that he has received his BB-BOO20 figure from My Disney Shop, so if you placed an order you may be receiving yours soon. Head on over to the forums for a closer look.
Yakfinities #77 Has Begun

New TVC @ Target
You are probably aware by now, but the latest assortment from The Vintage Collection has been showing up at Target stores.
Pickings are pretty slim, but with some luck (and persistence), you might be able to score some great new figures. Let us know what you’re coming across out in the wild (if anything at all) after the jump!
Yak’s Top Ten – TROS Results
In June, we posted a new Yak’s Top Ten, for the finale in the Skywalker Saga: The Rise of Skywalker. And now, the results are in!
Think you know who the most requested figure is? I guessed wrong. As a hint, it was the same character in both scales… I was surprised! I think that chances are, you will guess wrong too!

Hasbro seems to be avoiding most sequel trilogy material right now… but, are any of these on Hasbro’s short list? Should they be? Share your thoughts here or in our forums!
