The Star Wars Show has just revealed and new and exclusive set to Amazon.com: Darth Vader’s Castle (75251). This 1,060 piece set includes Darth Vader, Bacta Tank Vader, 2 Royal Guards and Imperial Transport Pilot. Preorders open tomorrow for $129.99.
If you haven’t heard yet, there’s news that the brand may be reviving itself in the United States.
Could this really be happening? Share your thoughts and what this could mean for our beloved hobby, and the toy industry in general!
Doing some investigating around my usual haunts, I came across some frightening details about a new assortment of figures called Story in a Box*. From what I’ve been able to gather, there are 4 different sets: Darth Vader, Jedi Luke, Chewbacca, and R2-D2 and should retail for around $10 each. Beyond that, I’ve heard that these figures are minimally articulated (the price point gave up that ghost) and should be available in late 2018/early 2019.
Maybe we’ll hear more about these at NYCC — or maybe not.

Personal Note: If the collecting community can’t fund this, we might have a very hard time finding future opportunity for such great items down the road from this small company or other entrepreneurs. Eric makes top quality product that is well worth the money. Let’s make this happen folks, it can open the door to even better stuff down the road!
As we’re hitting stores this week to take advantage of the new exclusives (officially) hitting shelves and pegs, Target will be offering $10 off of a $50 Star Wars purchase and $25 off of a $100 purchase via their app* starting on October 7.
