Loot Crate’s BIGGEST Crate EVER: Star Wars Limited Edition Crate is Almost Big Enough to Fit Yoda
Loot Crate™, the company behind the Loot Crate and Level Up monthly subscription services for geeks, gamers and pop culture lovers, is making its Star Wars™ Limited Edition crate available for purchase online on Monday, November 30th.
No, it’s not as delicious as it sounds – actually it’s quite sad. As we discussed last night on The Realm Recap, Hasbro has repacked last year’s Digital Release Commemorative Collection sets into two exclusive “Epic Battles” six packs for Toys”R”Us.
This would have been a great opportunity to release a Ghost crew pack from Star Wars Rebels with an accompanying Empire set.
Nonetheless, it will make things easier for gift giving as there aren’t six individual sets to complete. These are hitting stores now at $40 each.

Dan Emmons from StarWarsCollector.com has posted word of a packaging variant for the Walmart Exclusive 3.75″ Black Series Darth Vader figure. He notes that the position of the lightsaber has changed and black hang tags have been implemented as well. Head on over to check it out.
Instagram user @toy.fiction shares an image of one of the Smuggler’s Bounty exclusive POP! figures shipping now. Check out the Special Forces TIE Fighter Pilot (#90)!
UPDATE: There is also a regular First Order TIE Fighter Pilot variant shipping in boxes. So completist will need to track down this one as well.
In the US, this item is exclusive to Kmart, but in Mexico, collectors will be able to score the 6″ Black Series Kylo Ren (Starkiller Base) figure at Walmart.
You might have missed this on our Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Periscope social media channels last night, but I was putting the finishing touches on the toyguide update for the Walgreens Exclusive 6″ Darth Vader (Emperor’s Wrath) and snapped the above photograph. This is not a Photoshop trick or filter, this is the actual figure “lighting up”. Find out how it was achieved by watching the video on our YouTube channel.
Vinylmation World alerts us to a new Darth Vader Vinylmation Eachez release on the way. The “unmasked” version will be released at a 9/10 ratio, while the “masked” version will be the variant/chase at 1:10.
