Today we update with a closer look at the upcoming Quinlan Vos figure from the Clone Wars line. Not much is known yet about Master Vos’ role in Season 3, but judging by his pack-in “speederboard” it looks like this Jedi will be in for some gnarly adventures! Cowabunga!
UPDATE: A few eagle-eyed readers have observed that the lightsaber looks to have the ability to attach to the included speederboard for extra play value. It is unknown if this is an actual toy feature or if we’ll see this functionality play out in the series itself. Click the mock up image above for a down and dirty interpretation of what this combo might look like.
Brian’s Toys would like to thank everyone who made it out to the biggest celebration on earth! It was great meeting everyone at Celebration 5 in Orlando.
Over at the site, check out the new Mail-Away Rocket Firing Boba Fett, now in stock. Plus, place your pre-orders for any Celebration 5 exclusives such as the Donald Duck as Shadow Stormtrooper for they will be arriving within the next week.
Our friends at JediDefender have posted several images of carded figures from the Vintage and Clone Wars Collections. Head on over for a look at the ROTJ wave, the shots of the Clone Wars figures shown last week at CV, plus confirmation of Quinlan Vos appearing in the Clone Wars Season 3!
Hasbro has indicated time and again that the vintage push is going to pull collectors back into the mix that they feel abandoned them recently.
Now that many of us have had a few weeks to take in the new product and gather our own impressions, how is the line doing so far at retail? Does it look like it’s going to be a success? Or has Hasbro missed the boat?
Our friends, Arnie and Marjorie at Star Wars Action News recently had a visit from their state newspaper for an interview regarding their passion for collecting and their involvement in CV. Today, the State Journal Register has printed and posted that story in their paper and on their website. Be sure to give it a read.
