December Toy Runs

We’re just a couple weeks before Christmas and a new film that Disney hails as the end of the Skywalker Saga. So this is supposed to be prime toy shopping season.

New TESB Retro Collection Listings Found Via Walmart App

Some hunting with the Walmart app this morning has yielded two listings for the Retro Collection products for The Empire Strikes Back.

Rumor Report: The Next Deluxe “D3” Black Series Figure

Last month, packaging illustrations for several unannounced Black Series figures accidentally popped up online and have slowly been officially announced (Jedi Knight Revan and the Heavy Infantry Mandalorian for example).
