Upcoming Exclusives on eBay
A couple of upcoming exclusive figures have turned up on eBay recently – Ysanne Isard and Geonosis C-3PO.
Both figures look great, and hopefully it won’t be too long before these are officially out. But until then if your patience gets the best of you, you can get them a bit early.
Clone Wars Nikto Guard Coming Soon
Upon visiting my local Toys”R”Us today, I managed to take a peek at the planogram been used to reset the aisle and it indicates that the exclusive Clone Wars Nikto Guard (Puko Naga) is part of this reset and should be hitting stores in the next few days.
Update: Damaged Boba Fetts Galore
Reports are coming in that collectors are receiving the vintage rocket firing Boba Fett… however so far it looks like most people are receiving these in very poor condition. Head on over to the forums to share your thoughts.
Update: Yakreader Jeff wrote in to say he contacted Hasbro Consumer Affairs Division (1-800-327-8264) regarding his damaged Fett. They offered to send him a replacement and a return label for his damaged one. Might be worth a call if you are in the same situation.

Rise of Boba Fett Ultmate Battle Packs Hitting TRU
Although still officially, “unofficial”, we’ve received reports that the exclusive Rise of Boba Fett Ultmate Battle Pack has started hitting Toys”R”Us stores ($99.99) in California and Arizona.

Jodo Kast (Bounty Hunter) (K-Mart Exclusive)
The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of the K-Mart Exclusive Jodo Kast (Bounty Hunter)
PROS: A major improvement over the first attempt back in 2008. Great detailing on the armor/jumpsuit and the sculpt selection couldn’t have been better.
CONS: None really unless you live in an area without a K-Mart. A bloodied face paint job would have really put this figure over the top. Helmet is a little snug which lends itself to deforming over the head (especially over the nose). Ships with the belt assembled backward but easily correctable if you are an opener.
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.
