After Hasbro’s big reveal at SDCC with their massive 6″ TIE Fighter, we’re curious what our readers think… is this a “must have item” or are you disappointed that they are making this $170 toy after telling us for years that things like a Death Star playset, Sail Barge and other 3.75″ items can’t be made?
Sound off in the forums with your thoughts and be sure to take our poll in the forums too!
An up close and personal review of the Toys”R”us/SDCC Jabba the Hutt has been posted for your viewing pleasure at Mightyjabba.com
Be forewarned, for those of us that had been excited by this new slug for our 3.75″ collections may not be so pleased considering some of the news in the review (including the paint apps)…
At 1pm, Topps will be giving away their new Star Wars Galactic Connexions trading discs to 50 lucky fans. The disc features the First Order Stormtrooper which will only be available at SDCC in an extremely limited quantity of 250. Topps Star Wars Galactic Connexions will be on sale on Force Friday, September 4th exclusively in Walmart with 85 characters to collect.
Next up – Topps will be hosting Steve Blum, the voice of Zeb from Star Wars Rebels, at booth 2913 at 3:30pm. He will be signing Topps cards for the first 50 fans.
Also, Topps has oversized vintage style cards for sale. There are ten sets to collect, each with ten cards for a total of 100.
Did you miss the SDCC panel for The Force Awakens? Admittedly it kills me to have missed it but Disney/Lucasfilm did fans a solid and posted the behind the scene video for all to loop.
Hasbro has released images from their Star Wars SDCC Presentation. Click on through for a couple surprises.

Darth Revan (Fans’ Choice Winner)

New FX Darth Vader Lightsaber
New FX Yoda Lightsaber
From what I heard, much more was planned to be shown, but mysteriously wasn’t. The wait continues….
As a surprise to no one, Darth Revan has officially won the fans’ choice poll.
Take this for what it’s worth but we received info from a retailer that states (via corporate email) that the figures for The Force Awakens are not planned to be released in waves but in one mass shipment for September 4. In essence, everything we see on Force Friday will probably be all that gets replenished until after the film’s debut.
