Target is having a sale on basic action figures (Star Wars, Marvel, TMNT etc.) each for $7.99. While this sale might not help clear out the peg warmers at your local store, bring the ad into Toys”R”Us and they should price match the sale for you.
During my circuit of stops today at TRU, it appears that many stores are receiving and placing their allotment of the Special Value Offer Starfighter 2-packs. One of my stops did have the Mandalorian Assault Transport, but in less than MIB condition. I picked it up anyway because that’s how I roll. Click on the image to check it out.

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of the online exclusive 104th Battalion “Wolf Pack” Clone Troopers Ultimate Gift Set from The Clone Wars.
PROS: For fans of the series, this is a nice expansion pack in order to get some of the additional troopers for the “Wolf Pack” squad. The deco for Clone Commander Wolffe (and his troopers) is much closer to the actual color as portrayed in the series.
CONS: Since this set is now an online exclusive (previously set to be a Walmart item), collectors may have to pay a little bit extra than if they were to pick this up at retail. Plo Koon only includes his double bladed lightsaber gauntlet whereas it would have been nice to get his standard issue Jedi weapon.
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this latest set is worth adding to your collection.
