Announcing the Build-A-Droid Galactic Swap Meet at Celebration V

Hasbro will be hosting the Galactic Swap Meet at the Hasbro booth at Celebration V! Bring your surplus Build-a-Droid parts and trade with us, and other fans, as our booth becomes the hub for some serious droid-part-swapping!

We will have a limited supply of complete parts available for 14 of the buildable droids from the Legacy/Droid Factory basic figure line (see attached poster for exact droids we will have). Just bring your extra Legacy/Droid Factory parts and trade them 1-for-1 for parts you need to complete your unfinished droids.

Even if you don’t see the droids for which you need parts on the list, bring what you have anyway….there’s always a chance that another fan will have what you need.

To ensure that as many people as possible can complete their droids, we ask that only 2 Droid pieces be exchanged per person per day.

CV Exclusive Camie & Fixer Comic Pack

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of the Celebration V Exclusive Camie & Fixer Comic Pack

PROS: “Wormie” finally gets his friends! Well articulated – perfect for Tatooine diorama filler or for fans of cutscene and/or concept figures in general. Plus, they make a great accompaniment to the Academy Biggs Darklighter and Floppy Hat Luke from the TAC line.

CONS: For myself, none but some might consider them a little obscure and difficult to track down after the convention. Accessories are a little light. I would have liked to see Fixer include a set of macrobinoculars.

Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this set is worth adding to your collection.

Thanks to Hasbro and Hunter PR for providing us this advance sample.

Yakface/SWAN Celebration V Fan Party T-Shirt

After a bit of teasing, today we reveal the exclusive Fan T-Shirt that we will be giving to attendees of our joint Yakface/SWAN Celebration V Fan Party next month. There maybe a few final tweaks to the design/colors before they are printed but shouldn’t differ too greatly from the above. A huge thanks to illustrator Kevin Graham for lending his talents to the design. Click the image for a closer look!
