Amazon continues its price drop on the Clone Wars Republic Attack Shuttle and it has now reached the low price of $29.99 plus FREE SHIPPING! Amazon Prime members can get it shipped to their house by tomorrow for only an additional $3.99. One wonders how much further it will go down, if at all, so you might want to pull the trigger now before it is too late. I did.
Update: Now $21.99 as a “Lightning Deal” til 1PM
Update 2: Now available for $24.99
Our friends at Echo Base News have learned in their latest QnA session with Hasbro, that Jedi Master Pong Krell is indeed coming to the Clone Wars line. An ETA isn’t given but one would hope/expect that this will be one of the few new figures revealed for 2012 at Toy Fair.
The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of the Walmart Exclusive AT-RT Walker with ARF Trooper from The Clone Wars Collection.
PROS: After a delayed release, this set finally makes it way to retailers just in time for Christmas. A decent, if not odd, deco on the ARF trooper – kind of the Star Wars version of digital camo I guess. AT-RT Walker is a great, episode specific, repaint of the ’09 mold.
CONS: Availability is hit or miss right now. The lack of a Captain Keeli or Master Di on the pegs (or in the foreseeable future for that matter) makes for a lonely ARF Trooper and/or poor retail planning.
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of the Walmart Exclusive BARC Speeder Bike with Clone Trooper Buzz from The Clone Wars Collection.
PROS: After a delayed release, the set finally makes it way to retailers just in time for Christmas. Decent deco on the trooper (which recycles the “Jesse” sculpt). Fits well on the speeder nicely due to the ball jointed hips. Look great with the other 41st Elite clones released thus far.
CONS: Availability is hit or miss right now. Some might not like the sculpt selection for the figure and the fact that the figure and speeder included does not match the sculpts shown on the back of the packaging.

Adam Pawlus over at Galactic Hunter confirmed in their latest QnA that collectors’ fears of the delayed Obi-Wan with Attack Shuttle and Boba Fett with Speeder Bike Figure with Vehicle sets, first revealed at Toy Fair 2011, have been cancelled or are “no longer in the line”.
Toys”R”Us as posted their upcoming Black Friday Circular on their facebook page. Not a whole lot of “new” deals to be had on Star Wars merchandise as they are again trying to unload those Legacy Collection ARC-170 and Clone Wars Y-Wings, but if you still need them and your store still has them, they will be on sale for 50% off. They will also be offering 50% off select Legacy/Clone Wars Battle Packs and the Grievous Roll-Playing Lightsaber.
