Another week has passed and it’s time for our look back at the latest news in Star Wars collecting. On this special episode of The Realm Recap, we “recap” our trip to the Disney Star Wars Event held at Disney Studios & Disney Store Headquarters, the newest collectible news and the impact of the reclassification of POST-ROTJ EU material. Click on through to check out the latest episode and feel free to subscribe to our channel and leave suggestions on what you’d like to see covered on the show.
Also, if you prefer not to look at our ugly mugs, a downloadable MP3 is available as well.
We don’t enjoy posting negative news about Hasbro this often – but you have to see the latest reports on the bubble issues with The Black Series… some employees are inadvertently reattaching the figures on backwards now – which is understandable given the general lack of distinction between the front and back of the cards.
A couple years ago, Hasbro seemed surprised when fans told them that clone helmets were yellow and green while still on the card (this was months after the clones had been showing up at retail)… so we can only hope Hasbro hasn’t failed to realize this bubble issue by now and are working to address this for subsequent waves of both The Black Series and Legends.
