Reports are sporadic at this point, but some collectors are finding the second series of Hasbro’s 6″ Black Series figures at Target stores.
Be on the lookout for these, as at the store I saw these, they were stacked behind a stack of Wave One Darth Maul and Luke figures… I almost didn’t realize they were there!
We talk to Ryder Windham, author of the Star Wars Death Star Technical Manual, review the rereleased Star Wars Frames books, and analyze Star Wars Episode VII production, release date, and casting news.
Star Wars Episode VII draws nearer! We now have a firm release date. On December 18, 2015 fans will finally see a cinematic vision of Star Wars post-Return of the Jedi, 32 years after Episode VI’s release. On this week’s Star Wars Action News podcast your hosts Marjorie and Arnie discuss this news and anticipate a holiday season full of Star Wars goodness!
We are happy to announce a new feature – the Concept Series by forum moderator localgotal!
Our intent is to show off the amazing concept ideas that he has put together, and to encourage discussion on the direction we all want Hasbro to get back to… which is making more collector focused products… and showing how easy some of these can be, because Hasbro already has a lot of the tooling for these!
Each week when we have a new concept to show, localgotal will be posting it in the Concept and Mockups section of the Yakface Forums for your viewing pleasure. Leading things off the first concept, the shadowy Arleil Schous from A New Hope!
It appears that TJ Maxx and Marshalls stores are gearing up for the Christmas season, as these stores continue to receive more of Habro’s older product at discount prices. So if you have one of these stores in your area, it may be worth your while to make a quick stop and see what you can find!
Yakreader Adam V. writes in with word that he too has found the 2012 Naboo Starfighter at his seasonal Toys”R”Us Express in Camarillo, CA for $19.97 each. The Naboo Fighter is also shipping alongside the green Republic Tank Fighters which say limited distribution as well.
Stay tuned for more information later this week.
