Five Below Strikes Back!
Just as we’re getting geared up for The Black Series figures to start hitting, Five Below now comes through like they did so many times in 2012… this time, with the Darth Malgus wave!
There’s some great figures in this wave, but as we all know, also a ton of TPM figures that Hasbro unfortunately decided they needed to pack into the first three assortments of TVC last year, which crushed distribution for anything past the first few assortments of TVC in 2012.
Anyways – be on the lookout for these if you have a Five Below store in your area and hopefully this means that more waves past this one are on the way!

The most recent Yakfinities Customizing Challenge, The Clone Wars, has wrapped up and we’ve got nearly 100 customs to show off in the Roundup Report made by Yakface forum members.

New Product at Target
Forum member darthmadonna ran into some new items at his local Target yesterday – check out his early find after the jump!
Site Maintenance: We’re All Fine Here Now…
Thanks to all that emailed and sent in questions regarding trouble accessing the comment system and individual news posts. The offending droids in the system have been dealt with and everything is back up and running trouble free.
More Wishful Thinking… :-)
We recently posted a wishlist for SDCC reveals in our forums, and now forum member localgotal has added some outstanding mock-ups for some Cinema Scenes that would sell like hotcakes if Hasbro would just make them like the pics he has shown. Check them out after the jump (but remember, none of this has actually been announced by Hasbro – but it should be!).
Happy Independence Day
We at Yakface would like to wish all of our readers and forum members a great holiday.
Enjoy the day with your loved ones, and please be safe.

Target Clearancing Hasbro Product Galore
We posted a lengthy rant last month expressing our recent frustration with Hasbro, and it seems like the folks at Target may feel the same way given their latest round of Hasbro markdowns.
It isn’t just Star Wars product either… it’s GI JOE and Transformers product too… and the trend here is that all the items are ones aimed at kids, and really aren’t of high quality… they are often gimmicks or Hasbro scaling back on quality. So what does that mean with the upcoming Movie Heroes line? Will they pegwarm like these have been doing since the moment they were first stocked?
Hopefully Hasbro has a much better plan in store for next year… share your thoughts here or in our forums.
Because this is a Democracy…
The next Yakfinities Customizing Challenge is right around the corner and this is your chance to make your voice heard – if you’re registered in our forums, cast your vote and help decide what the next customizing theme in the Yakface forums will be!
