The Target Exclusive AT-DP with AT-DP Driver now has a placeholder page on their website. It is currently unavailable for order but its listing should give indication that we can expect it in the next couple weeks. Remember, this item shares a DPCI (087-06-1832) with other exclusive and non-exclusive Class II vehicles so a DPCI will not guarantee finding a store with this set.
Thanks to Jedi Temple Archives for the heads-up.
DorksideToys is now taking preorders for the Star Wars Rebels Imperial Troop Transport and is expected to arrive next month.
Our various sponsors are now taking preorders for the next assortment of Deluxe 6″ Black Series figures. This case include 2 Han Solo and Tauntaun sets and repack of the Speeder Bike with Scout Trooper. Order yours today at Big Bad Toy Store, DorksideToys or Entertainment Earth.
UPDATE: We’ve included the original tweet and a “shocking” response from Steven Anne via our friend, Matt Guzy. Again, this isn’t confirmation, but a fun bit of speculation that may have some traction.

It looks like we can expect the Black Series 6″ Bossk and Han Solo in Stormtrooper Disguise* soon thanks to new loose images posted by ViperKingdom on eBay. Thanks to our partners at The Wolfpack Podcast for the heads-up.
UPDATE: I independently confirmed with the seller that Bossk no longer has the jaw articulation as previously indicated by Hasbro.

Forum member Jodo has posted another good read on his blog about the issues we as collectors are facing these days (a follow up to his previous article).
Check it out here, and share your own thoughts in our comments section or in the forums.
Personal Note: Hopefully Hasbro gets things back on track with the Episode VII launch!
I’ve felt for a while that the Black Series Ree Yees has been sporting a head a tad too small, so I dusted off my dremel so I could see what the POTF2 version’s head looked like on there.
Does it look better? Or worse? Does it really matter? I dunno – but I think I prefer the larger head. If you’ve considered making this alteration, head to the forums for a closer look.
The holidays are over but that hasn’t stopped the fireworks this week as a lot of news and confirmations surrounding Hasbro’s plans for 2015 have come to light. The big news this week was several lists of proposed product for The Force Awakens made their way online. Although nothing incredibly revelatory, there does seem to be no holding back in terms of merchandise. Target also gets a large spotlight this week as they’ve started implementing a new price for The Black Series that has caused quite a response from collectors. Is this an isolated event or will other retailers follow suit? Sideshow news this week is light but there is something they have in common with Hasbro – a delay of product. Celebration Anaheim announcements are starting to gear up with the reveal of an new set of pins and the debut of Smuggler’s Bounty audio drama from Kyle Newman. Plus, Flyguy and I run down our latest reviews and acquisitions from the past week! All this and much more on Episode 47 of The Realm Recap!

In less depressing news (depending on your point of view), Wave 2 of the Saga Legends/Rebels assortment has hit shelves in Singapore. Thanks to cknewsstand for tagging us on Instagram for the report.
