Our friends at Jeditemplearchives.com are reporting that the brand spankin new Class I vehicles have been spotted at retail here in the United States – click on the image above for their report!
Forum member Paulskywalker also found these in the UK recently, so hopefully this is a sign of good things to come with the 2012 distribution!
While checking out a clearance endcap at Target today, I saw a vintage 3-pk marked down to $9.98 (or something like that)… I had bought a few of these last week at the same store for this price, and decided to scan this one on the off chance it was marked down to 75% off now… instead, it rang up at $24.99! This was the old, dusty Needa-Dengar-AT-AT Driver set… strange, eh?
And also today, according to our friends at Jedidefender.com, this is a new DPCI number, 087-06-1172 – hopefully soon we’ll find out more details regarding some sets of new figures… though the price increase certainly isn’t welcome!
We just received word from Hasbro that they will not be distributing the powerpoint presentation shown to attendees at Toy Fair on Saturday.
A few people have sent in questions regarding source material for the “lost line” look that Hasbro will be using on 6 of the individual cards included in SDCC Exclusive Carbon Freezing Chamber set (and on Limited Edition chase/variant cards available later at retail).
For the answers, look no further than The Star Wars Collectors Archive web site for illustration images of this abandoned concept to the iconic 1977-1985 Kenner packaging design we know today.
As you’ll see, the new cardbacks are very faithful to the original concept and exude that “70’s” feel.
We’ve added even more images to our Show Coverage gallery and Facebook Albums loading them both up with official images from Hasbro’s presentation showcasing Vintage, Movie Heroes, Clone Wars and Vehicles!
The crew at POTF2.com have posted the first look at 2 new multipacks for 2012. Head on over for shots of the Ewok and Pilots multipacks!
