A couple months ago we teased what we thought was another SDCC exclusive, when in fact it was another convention exclusive. Robot Kingdom has posted the first look at that set showing a reworked Han Solo in Hoth Gear with Princess Leia in a cool Echo Base presentation/display box. Watch for an official announcement soon.
K & C Collectibles has received New: Star Wars Insider #183, Galactic Files Trading Cards, Darth Vader Doormat, Classic Newspaper Comics and Sideshow 12″ Action Figures. Click the NEW PRODUCTS link under the Categories Section for a complete list of recently added items.
Since we got Hasbro’s attention with the “Build the Barge” campaign, why don’t we let them know who we’d like to see fill that Sail Barge (along with Skiff Guards and Jabba’s Palace denizens)?
Rules are the same as the other Yak’s Top Tens:
Voting will end on September 10 – you can do so by posting in the forums or in the comments section of this article.
Finally! The 6” Black Series Stormtrooper (Mimban) has hit Walmart in the US. Instagram follower maur00liveira reports finding them at a store in New Jersey.
UPDATE: As it stands, currently the validity of this report is suspect.
Holeinthegroundpro will soon be launching an Indiegogo campaign to start offering even higher quality production quality diorama products for your 3.75″ collections.

This is not breaking news, but the new 6″ Enfys Nest w/ Swoop Bike has been showing up at various Target stores recently, including the St. Louis area over the past week. It might be worth an extra stop if you’re interested in picking up this set.
Forum moderator darthvlad is oveseas in Russia right now (Nakhoda, to be precise), and sent in a couple pics of the Star Wars section of a local retailer he visited. It’s worth the look to see what the selection is of Hasbro product that he has come across.
Personal Note: I will stop complaining about the lack of anything TVC related at U.S. Walmart stores for a while after seeing this sadness… but just for a while.
Hallmark is also taking orders for their Darth Maul and R2-Q5 Itty Bittys plush characters.
Thanks to Greedo Gus for the alert.
Walmart may be clueless how to distribute collector geared Star Wars action figures these days, but many stores have continued to stock the “kid aimed” Force Link waves with a hint of regularity (though in many areas, not at all!).
On any note, the latest wave is popping up at various Walmart stores (reports vary from $3.00, $5.00, to full MSRP), so be on the lookout if you’re looking to acquire them.
