Images for a new LEGO Star Wars set have made their way online revealing the Rebel Combat Frigate (Phoenix Home) from Star Wars Rebels. This set includes 5 mini figures including Commander Sato, Ezra Bridger, Chopper, Ahsoka Tano and Agent Kallus.
Thanks to Realm Recap co-host Flyguy for the heads up.
A new series of ads created by Funko confirms one of the rumor POP! figures included in this month’s “Bounty Hunter” Smuggler’s Bounty subscription box. Click on through for the “spoiler”.
UPDATE: The second POP! figure has also been revealed via a Funko sponsored ad on Facebook.
Disney Store now has the Elite Series C-3PO and R2-D2 die cast figures available online for $24.95 each. These will also be available in store today as well. Select figures are also on sale for $20 each.
The official Star Wars Celebration site has updated today announcing the addition of Carrie Fisher to the guest list as well as writer and reporter Amy Ratcliffe.
All announced are the first Collecting Track panels covering: Palitoy, original props and costumes, one-of-a-kind collectibles, LEGO Star Wars, Vintage Coins and more.
PROS: The overall sculpt and size is good, making it manageable for most display applications and the pose is fitting for a bounty hunter in midst of battle. The carbon freezing chamber base gives it nice presentation while making it very stable for displaying. The best aspect of this piece is the addition of the light-up base – something that would have been great in the 2014 Darth Vader base. No assembly required.
CONS: Pricey for the size and its limited edition (750 piece) production run is driving up the secondary price on eBay with listings ranging from two to three times the retail price. Paint apps could be tighter, especially the silver weathering which borders on excessive.
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and judge for yourself whether this piece is worth adding to your collection.
