Another midnight product launch has come and gone, but the news is not over as we are back this week to discuss the latest developments in Star Wars collecting. Rogue Friday proved to be a more subdued, but more satisfying experience for many this year as stores seemed to have a good amount of merchandise to satiate needy collectors. Flyguy and I discuss our experiences as well as several announcements that came in the hours before and after Sept. 30. Enjoy the super-sized, and wallet draining Episode 105 of The Realm Recap.

For over two decades now, many collectors have found themselves frustrated by a lack of playsets, dioramas, and basic environments to display their 3.75″ figures with.
But those days are coming to a close thanks to Galactic Trading Post, who is now offering some fantastic high quality plastic walls to satiate this need. To order these directly, click here.
If you’re on the fence about these, I can say based on the 6″ scale walls, their product is amazing. You can see a few pics of those in our forums.
Hasbro Italia, as part of Rogue Friday, has sent out a press kit to select accounts and included with the goodies was the 6″ Black Series AT-AT Pilot* (#31). Click the image above for a closer look.
*Note the packaging call-out designates this figure as a “pilot”, not “driver”.
Toys”R”us is running a Buy 1, Get 1 40% off sale through October 8 on all 3.75″ action figures and vehicles. This is a good time to stock up on army builders and some custom fodder this price… and even take the plunge on some vehicles, if you can get over the NERF features.
Now that the dust has begun to settle a bit, we’re curious how everyone’s toy runs for new Star Wars merchandise has gone since Rogue Friday.
