Sideshow Collectibles is sending out notifications to those that preordered the Hot Toys Luke Skywalker (The Force Awakens) Sixth Scale figure. Originally solicited with an estimated arrival period between January-March 2017, it has now been revised to July-August 2017.
Entertainment Earth now has wave 3 of the 3.75″ Star Wars Universe/Rogue One assortment of figures in stock and ready to ship. You can order by the case (2 of each figure) or as a set of six (1 of each figure).
Released in the UK a couple weeks ago, reports are coming in that the Elite Series Die Cast First Order TIE Fighter Pilot is now available in the US exclusively at Disney Stores. This figure is not available online as of this post but if you’re interested you may wish to brave the post-holiday mall traffic to try to secure one of them as the die cast Elite Series line is on sale for $14.99 each.
Thanks to Pete V. for the heads up.
We are sad to report that Carrie Fisher has passed away after suffering a massive heart attack over the weekend. She will forever be in our hearts as Princess Leia Organa. Rest in peace.
The clearances continue as Target has started to mark down the 6″ Black Series Rogue One 3pk that includes Jyn, Cassian and Death Trooper Specialist. YMMV (Your mileage may vary) but clearances have been found from $41.98 to $29.98 all over the US. You’ll find the biggest discounts in metro areas that have the largest inventories on hand. Good luck and may the force be with you.
MedicomToy has announced the latest addition to their line of MAFEX (Miracle Action Figure EX) figures with the Rogue One Shoretrooper. Approximately 1/12 in scale, this figure includes the necessary components to convert the figure from standard Scarif Stormtrooper to the Squad Leader – very cool! It is available for preorder now from sponsor Big Bad Toy Store with an estimated availability of August 2017.
It looks like we may possibly see a running change to the upcoming Sergeant Jyn Erso (Imperial Ground Crew Disguise) figure as original solicitation imagery shows her wearing the commandeered helmet, while a new carded image as turned up showing it packaged separately. No official word on whether both will be available or if this is like the 6″ K-2SO “blaster/no blaster” production change.
Merry Christmas to you and yours from Yakface.com.
Hasbro’s latest highly coveted 3.75″ TBS figures are starting to arrive for those that ordered through Walmart.com, and Yakface staff member Jodo has posted some great pics showcasing the Scarif Trooper in all its glory… check out the pics after the jump!
Those who held off on pulling the trigger on the Rogue One AT-ACT, may want to start hitting Target stores as reader Mike M. found them marked down to $149.98 at his store. YMMV, but I’ve also heard that stores will be putting these on clearance December 26.
