Read anything good on the internet lately? Me neither. So let’s change that (yes, I’m overselling it). After 20+ years of reporting toy news for Hasbro via the info generously doled out through press releases and agencies, it appears that Yakface.com has been dropped from the list of those receiving direct communication and promotional materials from Hasbro. Read on for what will and won’t change around here for the foreseeable future. Intriguing!!!

K & C Collectibles has added Topps Journey to The Last Jedi, New Force Link figures, First Order Snowtrooperr & Flametrooper from Kotobukiya, LEGO sets, Black Series 3.75″. Click the NEW PRODUCTS link under the Categories Section for a complete list of recently added items.
It appears that the 40th Anniversary Darth Vader that is reissued for the standard Black Series release (#43) is more than just a simple repack. The paint operations on the helmet have been updated significantly in order to achieve an even better likeness to the screen-used helmet by adding more silver to the neck seal portion. This makes 3 unique decos for this sculpt (red eyes, dark eyes, and dark eyes/silver neck). Click the image above for a closer look.
Our current Customizing Challenge only has a couple weeks left – it doesn’t matter whether you’re a seasoned customizing veteran or have never customized anything before; we invite all of our readers to join in the fun and create a custom “Mini-Rig” by the deadline of September 30!

We saw a new assortment of 3.75″ Black Series Titanium Diecast figures finally hit after months of rumors for Force Friday II, but now it’s time to look beyond The Last Jedi. The untitled Han Solo movie is set to hit in May 2018 (for now) and we know that Lando will have a significant role in that film. As a refresher for the character, it would make sense to offer a version of him in his iconic outfit from Cloud City. And where there’s one, there should be more, right?
Can’t wait for the U.S. release date for some of the 6″ Black Series retailer exclusives? Head on over to Robot Kingdom and preorder the Guardians of Evil 4pk., Supreme Leader Snoke with Throne, Kylo Ren with Throne Room, Obi-Wan Kenobi (Force Spirit), and First Order Stormtrooper with Gear
Robot Kingdom expects them for early October shipping.
Voting is now open for our next Yakfinities Customizing Challenge, which kicks off October 1. We’ll leave this poll open for 10 days, which allows registered Yakface Forum members to cast their vote on what theme they like most.
