As we speculated a couple days ago with our exclusive reveal, we can now 100% confirm that there is a new blue and white Resistance A-Wing (with no Nerf) coming for The Last Jedi. It includes the Force Link play feature as well as a female pilot in green flight suit named Tallie. The packaging also confirms our rumor of a new two pack which we teased here.
Per our report, the A-Wing should retail for $29.99 and the two pack should be $14.99.
Seeing that a 3.75″ Star Destroyer playset for The Last Jedi is on the horizon, we can’t help but speculate on what this will end up looking like.
Will this be a dream playset that that captures the diorama essence of an epic movie environment like collectors have been begging for in the 3.75″ scale for over two decades now? Or will it feature over-exaggerated “play” features? Or could it be a well balanced mix? How big will it be? Will it feel worth the asking MSRP of $199.99?

Hasbro’s new Forces of Destiny line has been showing up at retail over the past week. How are these appearing to move in your area?
Check out my personal experience (and opinion) in our forums, and we look forward to reading yours as well.
Recently, our friends at Jeditemplearchives shared news of Target’s plan to merchandise clearance Star Wars items in their very own planogram section.
While traveling today, I came across a Target store that had just reset their clearance Star Wars items following these corporate guidelines (this store also had an endcap filled with at least 30 more 5poa figures from TFA and Rogue One and a ton of Ezra speederbikes).
What kind of clearance selection are you all seeing at your local Targets? How low do these products need to go for customers to put them in their carts? Share your thoughts after the jump!

While researching additional items to add to the ever-growing Force Friday 2 checklist, I stumbled across a new Interactech Kylo Ren listed on the Australia Target.com website. Like previous Interactech figures, 60+ sounds and phrases are activated when the figure is moved. Click on through for the full list of features and images.
Watch for more reveals later today.
After searching all day, I can clearly say that you’ll soon be able to play with this 5POA bae in grey. But keep your guard up kids, don’t fall prey and overpay as were only a month away from Force Friday.
A couple weeks ago, we posted a preliminary leaked list of possible 6″ Black Series figure planned for release for Force Friday II. In light of the recent 3.75″ leaks and the attributed code names, we think we can clearly determine who is who and who is NOT coming in the initial launch. Click on through for the updated list.
Again, nothing is official until confirmed by Hasbro or leaked product continues hitting shelves (whichever comes first).
