A new Yakfinities Customizing Challenge has just kicked off, and the theme is Order 66 Survivors. So get those creative juices flowing for what is sure to be another fun customizing event in our forums. Several entries have already been submitted too, which can be seen here.
As we reported earlier this week, Walmart will be getting an exclusive 4 pack of Black Series 6″ figures soon, Walmart.com.mx now has this listed on their site for $889.00 pesos (about $65 US).
Thanks to Coleccion Star Wars in twitter for the heads up.
Walgreens.com has now, finally, started processing and shipping orders for those that “preordered” the Prototype Boba Fett back in July, so check your inboxes for shipping notifications. Question is, does anyone need it any more?
Members of the Star Wars collecting community share which item they most desire, and Marjorie and Arnie bring news from New York ComicCon 2014!
Walmart is starting to prep for the arrival of Star Wars Rebels product with new signage in their toy aisle. Hopefully, actual Rebels action figures will arrive soon to fill it out.
We were sent this image this morning of an upcoming 6″ Black Series Exclusive Pack which includes repacks of 4 figures: Han, Slave Leia, Boba Fett and Greedo. Look for an update soon with more info on where (probably Costco or Sam’s Club) you can find this and when.
UPDATE: Juan Carlo sends us word that he found this at a Walmart in Monterrey Mexico for $999 Pesos ($77 US). No word yet on US distribution.
The Realm Recap is back again this week picking up where we left off with NYCC news as we touch on a few developments released through QnAs from various sites in attendance. Hot Toys surprises this week with the tease of a new 12” Stormtrooper – which may be more than meet the eye (oops, wrong franchise). 2015 LEGO set images were revealed/leaked this week, again running the gamut of source material and they all impress. Lots of Star Wars Rebels news this week with new (and free) shows, the return of James Earl Jones and Kanan getting an original story in 2015. This and much more in Episode 35 of The Realm Recap!

Disney Store is holding their Star Wars Rebels in-store event this weekend offering free prizes and activities at scheduled times (see stores for details). But there are also sales to be had as they are offering Hasbro TBS 6″ figures for only $7.49 each.
Thanks to Corey from The Wolfpack Podcast for the report.
Brian K. (who last week shared finding all 3 new Star Wars Rebels vehicles for $7.48 each) shares this image from his local Target store. Clearly, his store is confused.
We’ve added some new high-res images (for documentation/archiving purposes) of the soon-to-be-released “Wave 6″ in the Black Series assortments of 3-3/4″ and 6” figures. Nothing technically “new”, but new to us. Click on through to check them out.
