Target stores are continuing to lower the prices on select items in The Last Jedi packaging style, including the Return of the Jedi Battle Pack set, for as low as $7.48. As always, your mileage may vary.

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.
Look Familiar?
My oh my, what an uninspiring time the retail scene is these days for Star Wars…
5POA for the Solo line is front loaded with non-Solo movie figures, 6″ TBS is a rare store find at all, and TVC has kicked off with carry forwards that Walmart is pushing to the clearance section (hopefully this stops with Wave 2 and we see true peg space dedicated to them).
The only place worth even stopping to check out the Star Wars section at all in my neck of the woods is Target, who at least seems to be trying (but even there, the scene is pretty sad) . How goes it in your area?
Meanwhile, in Mattel’s Jurassic World section…
More 3.75″ Diorama Goodies
Our friend Raylen continues to add more 3.75″ diorama greatness for collectors to fill in gaps in their collections. After all, emperors need a place to sit – and rebels to guage battle strategy, right?
Head on over here to place an order, and join in the discussion in Raylen’s diorama thread in our forums!
Target Display Shippers
If you have any Target stores in your area, you may want to swing by and see if your local establishment is receiving some new aisle displays that contain more TVC figures, and even the somewhat elusive Wampa w/ Luke Skywalker. Good luck and happy hunting!

New 3.75″ Diorama Stuff
Yakface Forums member and expert diorama prop builder Raylen has just posted another great item for all you customizers out there… it’s a 3.75″ scale throne that can be used to seat various super articulated figures, such as this guy.
Share your thoughts in his forums thread, and if you’d like to add one of these thrones to your personal collection, simply follow this link!
Solo Toy Launch
If you went out hunting for new Star Wars product on Friday, chances are you were pretty underwhelmed by what was on the pegs (i.e. lack thereof).
Personally, I found a few things I wanted after driving around a bit, but it was pretty sad to see just how little retailers seemed to care about having new product out for the April 13 street date (I could not find one single carded figure anywhere – I struggle with calling this as a “launch” at all).
If you did score some good stuff though, we’d love to hear about it and see pics in our forums.
New Enloe Trials Customs
Over the past several months, I’ve been working behind the scenes on a number of new custom figures that will appear in The Enloe Trials photonovel series. Check out the latest customs in our forums, and the most recent chapter in the series can be found here.
Target Enforcing Solo April 13 Street Date (kinda)
If your local Target store starts putting out Solo launch toys early, don’t be surprised to get a “denied” message at the register… except for one group of items that are being allowed for sale.
