Next up in our Disney Star Wars Event focus are the die cast vehicles. Similar to Hasbro Titanium Series line, these vehicles consist of all metal construction, moving parts and have a price range of $9.95 for the smaller vehicles to $19.95 for the larger or “Deluxe” offerings. Note: yes the X-Wings engine are installed incorrectly – these are plastic/resin prototypes – the final version will be correct. Click on through for the gallery.
Next up in our Disney Star Wars Event focus are the porcelain character mugs. Each design varies in size and scale to reflect the character portrayed i.e. R2-D2 mug is short and squat, Chewbacca mug tall and thin. The outside design is also reverse embossed or “raised” to give even more detail to the piece. Each mug retails for $14.95. Click on through for the gallery.
Next up in our Disney Star Wars Event focus are the new plush items featuring R2 (with swivel dome), Jawa, Bantha and Tauntaun (no open belly – yet).

Pricing for R2 and Jawa is $9.95 each, the Bantha, Tauntaun and Chewbacca (not shown) are $19.95 each. Click on through for the gallery.

If you followed along via Facebook and Twitter on Tuesday, you’ll be up to speed on these but if not, here is a gallery of the 12″ scale line of figures coming to the Disney Store starting in May for $29.95 each. Things kick off with the Stormtrooper and then a new figure is released approximately every week there after. First for figures are Han, X-Wing Pilot Luke, Stormtrooper, and Darth Vader. Later in the fall we get Boba Fett and a 15″ Chewbacca. Click on through for the gallery.
The fan community was recently exposed to Hasbro’s upcoming Rebels line, which has been met with mixed results as so many of us prefer good articulation and more detailed sculpts with the Star Wars lines rather than what Hasbro revealed.
Soon after, we teamed up with Imperialshipyards.net to host a customizing event where fans can make their own Rebels themed customs and have a chance to win some cool prizes. While the number of entries has been somewhat modest thus far, the quality has been fantastic.
To check out the latest entries, click here – and remember, entries will be accepted until the end of April.
