Since we got Hasbro’s attention with the “Build the Barge” campaign, why don’t we let them know who we’d like to see fill that Sail Barge (along with Skiff Guards and Jabba’s Palace denizens)?
Rules are the same as the other Yak’s Top Tens:
Pick up to 10 figures you’d like to see done in 3.75” The Vintage Collection scale.
If submissions have more than ten entries, only the first ten will be considered!
Do not list multipacks as a single entry.
Only one vote per character.
All figures are eligible, whether it’s a new figure, a repaint, re-issue, deluxe, etc.
Feel free to add descriptions to any of your choices, such as pack-ins.
Voting will end on September 10 – you can do so by posting in the forums or in the comments section of this article.
Finally! The 6” Black Series Stormtrooper (Mimban) has hit Walmart in the US. Instagram follower maur00liveira reports finding them at a store in New Jersey.
UPDATE: As it stands, currently the validity of this report is suspect.
This is not breaking news, but the new 6″ Enfys Nest w/ Swoop Bike has been showing up at various Target stores recently, including the St. Louis area over the past week. It might be worth an extra stop if you’re interested in picking up this set.
Forum moderator darthvlad is oveseas in Russia right now (Nakhoda, to be precise), and sent in a couple pics of the Star Wars section of a local retailer he visited. It’s worth the look to see what the selection is of Hasbro product that he has come across.
Personal Note: I will stop complaining about the lack of anything TVC related at U.S. Walmart stores for a while after seeing this sadness… but just for a while.
Walmart may be clueless how to distribute collector geared Star Wars action figures these days, but many stores have continued to stock the “kid aimed” Force Link waves with a hint of regularity (though in many areas, not at all!).
On any note, the latest wave is popping up at various Walmart stores (reports vary from $3.00, $5.00, to full MSRP), so be on the lookout if you’re looking to acquire them.
Sponsor Entertainment Earth is having a one-day sale on their cases of 6″ Black Series Wave 14 – for only $50 each – a savings of 71%! Sale ends at midnight tonight (PDT).
Dan Emmons from SWCollector.com received confirmation from Hasbro that the 6” Black Series Stormtrooper with Blast Accessories will also be available exclusively at Disney Stores joining the Zuckuss and Captain Phasma (Quicksilver Baton) figures.
