There were a couple of Q&A sessions with Hasbro at SDCC a few weeks ago that revealed some intriguing responses from Hasbro Star Wars Design Director, Steve Evans, in terms of 3.75″ SA figures… and even the topic of playsets.
Aisle resets have begun at Target stores this week in preparation for the holiday season as well as the marketing push for Rogue One. Bryan S. from the 6″ TBS Facebook Collectors Group has posted several images of mark downs on the 6″ Special Force TIE Fighter ($118.98), 6″ Black Series figures ($13.98) and Black Series Titanium Series ships and more.
UPDATE:@KyloCollector on Instagram also ran in to the same clearance at his Target
The latest episode of The Star Wars Show has given fans the best look yet at the U-wing Transport/Gunship from Rogue One. They exclusively reveal that the U-wing as two flight modes, the second of which features a swept-wing configuration. Check out the episode on YouTube for additional technical specs and a new image right from the film.
Looks like the first product leaks for Rogue One are starting to hit the street as Instagram follower @jedi_skywalkerr posts an in-hand pic of Wave 1 which includes Jyn Erso (Jedha), Cassian Andor, Imperial Death Trooper, K-2SO, Kylo Ren (Unmasked) and Rey with BB-8 (lightsaber variant).
If the current retail Star Wars offerings have been boring you to death (like they are me!), eBay selling legend tunghori has listed more super articulated army builders at very reasonable prices… and even the amazing TVC Nien Nunb is listed as “in stock” as of this post! If you need him, act fast as quantities appear to be limited.
You may have caught this over the weekend on our Facebook page and in our forums, but Forbes published an article on Friday detailing some of the reveals at SDCC as well as the teasing of a future “big announcement” from Hasbro regarding super-articulated 3.75″ figures. Speculate at will, but keep your expectations in check. 😉

Since then the figure has been a rough find in stores, so thanks to our friends at Hasbro we will be giving away 16 Rey figures to do our part in giving back to the fans. How do you enter? Simply comment on this thread with your favorite moment from our 16 years online. It could be a new photo, event we covered, YouTube video or maybe even a simple news post. We will begin selecting winners at random starting this weekend, so please help us Make Collecting Great Again!
