Black Series Pre-Orders at BBTS
Big Bad Toy Store is now taking pre-orders for the 2013 Black Series 3-3/4″ ($114.99/12) and 6″ ($83.99/4) figure lines from Hasbro.
Update: Black Series Limited Availability?
Fans have already been skeptical about the upcoming Black Series due to the uninspired assortment of figures we’ve seen so far.
And now, our friends at Jedi Temple Archives are reporting some potentially disturbing news with the future of the Black Series. Nothing is confirmed yet, but it appears that retail-wise, Hasbro may only be distributing these figures to North America. Click here to read what they have uncovered. We are keeping our fingers crossed for our overseas friends that this is not the case.
EDIT: Enhance your calm everyone. Preview (Diamand Comic) will only be selling these to their existing accounts that reside US/Canada. Any other accounts will have to find other means of order fullfillment for these lines. – Jayson

Mission Series Wave 1 Images
The crew at Rebelscum have posted a set of high-res images for the upcoming “Mission Series” assortment of reduced articulation two-packs due later this year. This first wave includes Darth Vader with Seeker Droid, Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader) with 501st Legion Trooper, Jango Fett with Battle Droid and 212th Battalion Clone Trooper with Battle Droid.
While it goes without saying this new direction Hasbro is taking with a segment of the action figure line has many long-time collectors jumping ship, I for one appreciate the aesthetic, the overall reduced cost and its kid-targeted focus.
Imperial Walkers Marching into TRU
The latest TVC offering is appearing at more Toys”R”us stores across the United States, and will set you back $129.99 if you’re so inclined to pick up this behemoth.
Note to Hasbro/TRU though – if this doesn’t sell all that well, just remember this is the 3rd packaging variation of the AT-AT in the past couple years! We do love the big items but we also need you to throw a well-executed Death Star playset and a Sail Barge into the mix!
TJ Maxx Markdowns
TJ Maxx and Marshalls stores have been known from time to time to have some odd markdowns – at times clearancing some items, but leaving others (of the exact same SKU#) at full price.
Forum member darthapathy also recently came across some sporadic markdowns at his local TJ Maxx.
So keep your eyes peeled when at these discount stores – you never know what you may come across, or if it might be marked down cheaper than you think.
