For those that didn’t shell out the cash for the BB-8 Mega Playset, (or by one loose off of eBay) your 3.75″ Force Link figure collection has a glaring hole. Even though there is an all-new super articulated Supreme Leader Snoke coming in the first wave of the Vintage Collection in April, rumor is he will also be available as an individually carded figure in the Force Link/Star Wars Universe line. Look for him to possibly ship along side the Princess Leia Hoth and Maz Kanata (with jetpack) carded figures in the spring.

Our friends at Fantha Tracks have reported via Facebook that there have been sightings of the new wave of Force Link collection Emperor Palpatine and First Order Flametrooper (orange wave 3) at ToysRUs at Reading Gateway in the UK.
One of the listings that we posted last week for the Force Link 2pks for Solo: A Star Wars Story has been updated. It now includes the description: “SWU S2 Hermes and Perseus Guard” and, as we deciphered the other day, “Hermes” is the code name for “Lando Calrissian”. This marks the first Force Link character we’ve been able to confirm for the 3.75″ Force Link/SWU line for Solo. The pertinent info as been transferred to our Master UPC/SKU page found over in the right column of the site. Stay tuned for more details as we find them.
Retailers are wasting no time starting their post-Christmas/end of year clearances. I braved my local Target this morning (Plymouth, MN) and snapped a few pics and grabbed a few items as well. At this particular store, you can find the Black Series Centerpiece Vader and Luke for $14.98 (reg. 49.99), Black Series Rogue One 3 pk for $17.98 (reg. $59.99), Target Exclusive Era of the Force Action Figure 8pk. for $19.98 (reg. 39.99) and Poe Dameron’s Ski Speeder for $19.98 (reg. $39.99). Head to your local store to find deals like these and more, and of course, your selection may vary.
With The Last Jedi in the rear view mirror for many, we can continue our focus to products for Solo: A Star Wars. As a refresher, we revealed through several articles (below in reverse chronological order going back to October) new products from Hasbro and Mattel.
Stay tuned for a more accurate breakdown of the first wave (wave 16?) of 6″ Black Series figures that will include characters from Solo: A Star Wars Storyvery soon.
Also, a friendly tip: 99% of the products with UPCs that we have shared over the months, can be found directly on Amazon.com and Walmart.com with a little app-fu and the barcode scanner built into their respective apps. You’re welcome :).
Scott from Tulsa once again comes through with a report via Twitter of finding the Force Link Rose, BB-8, BB-9E Set at Walmart in Bixby, OK. This set ships along side the Baze and Chirrut Force Link set as well.
Today only, you can use the Cartwheel app at Target to knock an additional 50% off of the Force Link BB-8 Mega Playset – bringing the cost down to $69.99! I took advantage of this promo and grabbed one over my lunch break.
