Toyguide Update: Saga Legends Wave 1

preview_SL_wave1b

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with an entry dump covering the first wave of Saga Legends figures.

At this point, you’ve learned all you need to know about these figures and most collectors are in one of three camps: “hate’em”, “love’em” or the ever popular  “meh”. I’ll go on record again saying that I love them and can appreciate them for what they are – an inexpensive alternative play pattern for kids with a bit of nostalgia thrown in for collectors who grew up in a simpler time.

Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether these figures are worth adding to your collection.

You can also weigh in with your impressions on the figures we add to our toyguide on facebook and in our forums.

Black Series 6″ – How’s it Selling?

By now, we should be able to have a pretty good gauge on how well Hasbro’s new scale of Star Wars figures are moving.  In my neck of the woods, the first wave is starting to dry up, but Luke and Maul aren’t exactly flying off the shelves.

Thoughts?  How’s this line doing so far in your area?  Let us know by sharing your thoughts here or in our forums!

UPDATE: Amazon Exclusive TIE Interceptor Under Review

TIE Interceptor

It looks like the shipping condition woes that plagued Slave I have been prevalent enough for the TIE Interceptor that it has been temporarily taken offline as well and is “Under Review” as evidenced by the below message on their site:

While this item is available from other marketplace sellers on this page, it is not currently offered by Amazon.com because customers have told us there may be something wrong with our inventory of the item, the way we are shipping it, or the way it’s described here. (Thanks for the tip!)

We’re working to fix the problem as quickly as possible.

Thanks to AaylaSecurasMan for the heads up.

Update (10:35 am EST): It is now back up for ordering
