Stock, Sell, Restock, Sell, Restock…

The above retro wave has sold through and restocked several times in some areas.

For the first time in recent memory, I’m seeing a Star Wars Hasbro wave consistently selling and then getting restocked… and selling again. Are you experiencing this in your area? And how far down the Retro Collection rabbit hole do you want to see Hasbro go?

Personal Note: I’m still just lukewarm to the Retro line. It’s a novelty to me, and I pick and choose a few figures here and there. My preference is for the standard TVC line (though I would be interested in a mid-tier line that has modern sculpts, with 10-12 pts of articulation, and a lot more variety than what is offered today). However if the Retro line continues to gain momentum, it’s hard to see Hasbro deviating from this approach anytime soon.

Stay on target… almost there…

We just wanted to post an update on the status of the Yakface Forums. Due to some unexpected issues, we are experiencing delays in bringing them back. But, we are working on a resolution, and hope to have some good news soon (along with some new features).

Note: Yakfinities will return once we have things sorted out. Stay tuned for more information as we are able to make it available.

Thank you for your patience everyone.

Forums Update

Since we have transferred the site to a different server, we’re still working behind the scenes to bring back the forums. We apologize for the delay, but plan to have things back up and running sometime in February.

Things will look a little different, but we are hoping everyone who participates in the forums will like the changes that are coming!

Note: Yakfinities Customizing Challenges will resume, and the current theme will be extended due to the forums downtime.

Site News: Main Page and Forums Status Update

You may have noticed some instability (i.e. downtime) regarding the site and forums lately. We transferred the site to a different server with some backside “improvements” to support future updates and compatibility. We think we have the front page squared away but we are still working to bring the forums back online. We thank you for your patience and hope to have the issues resolved soon.

Thanks – Yakface.com staff

Yak’s Top Ten: Gaming Greats

Let’s break our own hearts by creating wish lists of figures that Hasbro will probably never make!

Yak’s Top Ten is back, with the focus now on Gaming Greats!

What are the top ten figures that you most desperately want to see made in The Vintage Collection from various video games over the years? 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.
