Hasbro has made available the Redemption Form for the exclusive Prototype Armor Boba Fett (VC61) online!. Any 5 Star Wars action figure collection UPCs will qualify for this offer. Head to Hasbro.com for the complete details and let’s hope the figures show up on doorsteps in better condition than the previous Mailaway Fett did.
UPDATE: Hasbro must have realized their mistake regarding the UPCs for the Prototype Fett as the website and form now specify the qualifying asst. accepted.
Collect and save the UPC codes of any 5 figures from these Star Wars action figure collections: Vintage (97568 Asst.), Saga Legends (21115 Asst.) or The Clone Wars (94736 Asst.)
So to further clarify, the valid UPCs are from the current Vintage, Saga Legends and Clone Wars collections shipping to stores.
No word yet if orders will be honored for those that already sent in their forms with now non-qualifying UPC.
Forum member combatJedi reports finding the new exclusive Droid Attack on the Coronet Battle Pack at a Toys”R”Us just yesterday – so might be a good idea to swing on by your local store to see if they have this in stock yet ($24.99). Hopefully this set goes over well and gets Hasbro to make a new OT Probe Droid set as well (who doesn’t want that anyway?)!
Note – some of the latest Clone Wars figures have been sighted at Toys”R”Us this week as well via pallet displays in front of the Star Wars promo sections at the front of the store (Savage Opress, Seripas, Saesee Tiin)… as always, your mileage may vary.

Our friends at JediDefender are giving away this year’s SDCC Exclusive Indiana Jones 30th Anniversary “Lost Wave” Figure Set. Head on over for the complete details and GOOD LUCK!
The crew over at BanthaSkull.com have posted a new list of Target DPCIs taking us from now through the first part of 2012. Head on over for the breakdown.
UPDATE: I hit up my local Target today to check out the new DPCIs and grab their corresponding prices:
PROS: Nice, crisp deco on the helmet and shoulder bells, even the soles of the boots are painted. For an exclusive, the price is comparable to the standard basic figure price. (Even cheaper if purchased during the current 2 for $10.99 promotion.)
CONS: Should have been designated as “Blackout” as identified by LFL and The Clone Wars Episode Guide. A bit light on accessories for a clone and maybe under articulated for some collectors as it uses the divisive “Stone” body.
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.
