The Enloe Trials: Chapter 2 Approaching

Although it may appear that I’ve been just sitting around like Freelo pictured above, I’ve actually been working on a lot of behind the scenes prep work for the next installment in The Enloe Trials photonovel series. 

Click on the image above for a recap of Chapter 1, and stay tuned for some previews to the next installment as the adventures continue into the OT era!

Walmart Black Friday 8-Pack

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.

Last TVC Wave in all its Glory

Forum member Scarrviper has shared some spectacular photos of some of the last figures from the TVC line in the forums.

Many of us have gotten these figures already from some of our online sponsors, but for those who have not yet been able to enjoy these amazing figures yet, head on over to the forums and see just how great these figures are when situated in dioramas (such amazing photography by Scarrviper doesn’t hurt either!).

Toyguide Update: VC114 Orrimaarko

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.
