In less than two weeks the biggest shopping day in America is upon us, and the stores are getting ready. And in this economy, many stores aren’t even waiting until Black Friday to offer deep discounts on the hot holiday items of the year. From several stores having the Hasbro AT-AT for $75 or less to Target already marking down its brand new exclusives to Star Wars Shop offering 25% off everything they have in stock, and more such as Transformers for $8 and Clone Wars Y-Wing for under $40, listen to this week’s Star Wars Action News as Arnie and Marjorie run down all the biggest bargains and what stores to hit for the newest Star Wars holiday items!
Among all the discounts are several Uncle Milton items, so this week the hosts of Star Wars Action News provide an in-depth hands on review of the Uncle Milton Death Star planetarium. With Uncle Milton toys always trying to provide both fun and education, some of their items are more successful than others. Is the planetarium something you should want under your tree this holiday season or would a lump of coal be preferable? Listen to find out!
And finally, our Sithmas Gift Exchange sign-ups are still open! Head to the Star Wars Action News forums now to register because the Sithmas Gift Exchange is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re gonna get!
