From Russia with Love

Forum moderator darthvlad is oveseas in Russia right now (Nakhoda, to be precise), and sent in a couple pics of the Star Wars section of a local retailer he visited.   It’s worth the look to see what the selection is of Hasbro product that he has come across.

Personal Note:  I will stop complaining about the lack of anything TVC related at U.S. Walmart stores for a while after seeing this sadness… but just for a while.

New Force Link 2.0 Figures Hitting Walmart

Walmart may be clueless how to distribute collector geared Star Wars action figures these days, but many stores have continued to stock the “kid aimed” Force Link waves with a hint of regularity (though in many areas, not at all!).

On any note, the latest wave is popping up at various Walmart stores (reports vary from $3.00, $5.00, to full MSRP), so be on the lookout if you’re looking to acquire them.

Exciting Diorama News!

What would be even better than Hole in the Ground Pro’s custom resin diorama props?  How about actual injection molded plastic accessories and playsets?

With the help of the collecting community, this can someday be a reality – keep an eye out on our main page for an upcoming crowdfunding campaign that you can contribute to,  which can help make your custom dioramas dream a reality!

Gamestop Toy Runs

A few days ago,  I scored the new 6″ Bespin Han at Gamestop (only 6″ Star Wars figure they had).  So, if you don’t feel like trying to track this down at a big box retailer or online, you might want to swing by your local Gamestop if you have time and try your luck!

Personal Note:  This is my favorite Han so far in this scale.  Truly awesome.  Pick this one up you see it, I think you’ll be a fan even if you don’t collect this scale.

Moloch Wave @ Walmart

It’s pretty easy to want to skip Walmart on toy runs these days for a lot of us given how badly they have handled anything Star Wars related the past few years, but they are currently stocking the Moloch wave in some parts of the US.

So if you’re looking for figures from the second assortment of Solo, it might be worth your while to make a stop to check out what they have on the pegs.
