Angry Birds Star Wars is now available for download via the App Store for iOS devices ($.99 / $2.99 in HD) and Macs ($4.99) running 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or later.
Walmart’s Black Friday Ad has dropped and it looks like they are going to have an exclusive 8-pack of Saga Legends* figures for $25.00. This promo is available in-store only and after 8pm on Thanksgiving Day.
*As of yet there is no word if the 8 figures are this same in each set or just a cobbled together assortment of overstock. But it’s a sure bet there is nothing worth getting here unless you are looking for troop builders.
Forum member Scarrviper has shared some spectacular photos of some of the last figures from the TVC line in the forums.

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of Orrimaarko (Prune Face) (VC114) from the Vintage Collection.
PROS: Hasbro has done the inevitable and repurposed the 2009 Major Panno in to one of my personal favorites from the Kenner line. The deco and new head sculpt are very well done and the new soft goods cloak really gives it that nostalgic “Kenner” feel. Like Panno, he is loaded with articulation and includes his own signature rifle, blaster and tiny commlink.
CONS: The only drawback with this figure, and its casemates, it that it is an online exclusive – i.e. not sold in stores. : (
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.
