As they get closer to the launch of Solo: A Star Wars Story products in a couple week, Target will be placing the 6″ Black Series assortment on sale for $9.99 each and it will run until the end of the month.
Thanks to TargetGod for the heads-up.

If you’re ever in the St. Louis area, I highly encourage you to take some time to check out SAGA Toys. I went by there again today and was in amazement of all the outstanding items available, and at some of the best prices I’ve seen.
They are located at: 7575 S Lindbergh Blvd, St. Louis, MO 63125 and they are open daily 9am-9pm. Be sure to tell them the crew at Yakface sent ya!
Our friend Matt Booker from Fantha Tracks directs our attention to this article regarding Toys”R”Us impending collapse in the UK. It’s fate may be decided as early as Tuesday.

If your Walmart is still selling TBS 3.75″ figures for $4.00 and you’ve been sitting on the sidelines, you may want to make those purchases soon as some stores are already raising the price back up to the “already reduced” price of $8.84.
Have you scored some goodies for the $4.00 price? Are you still seeing the lower price in your area? Share your experiences after the jump!
Walmart stores are starting to roll back TBS 3.75″ prices again. Let us know if you’re seeing the same thing in your area.
Walmart’s clearances are (always) haphazard around the US, but our friend Scott from Tulsa sends word via Twitter that he’s found them for as little as $16.00 in Oklahoma. You can check Brickseek in your area with SKU 133811432.
In what should not be a surprise to many, Walmart stores are starting to clearance the Forces of Destiny line as part of their “post-Christmas” clearance binge. Check your local store if you were looking to acquire these.
Personal Note: I thought this line was doomed as soon as it was announced. And I rarely see anyone pay attention to them in the stores (I do casually observe other customers). This felt like a “forced niche” item that Disney pushed, and I would feel this line has fallen short of retailer expectations to this point. For those that do like it, or have children that enjoy these, I hope the line continues for years to come. But I personally can’t see it having legs for an extended time; unless it’s marketed better and perhaps the product moved to the store section the audience these are targeted at frequent most.
Hasbro’s “Wal-Mart Exclusive” Black Series AT-ST is showing up at some Ross stores for a mere $21.99 – one heck of a price for this spectacular vehicle and driver figure.
Personal Note: Chalk this up to another miscalculation by Hasbro… while they made the legs more sturdy, and this is a fantastic toy, the standard MSRP of $59.99 is just too much for a vehicle that has seen multiple releases over the past decade; especially when the target audience is people who probably have already bought multiples of it.
However, if it came with a Jedha rebel, and perhaps a small Jedha building wall section, this would have been a smash hit – but that kind of thinking probably doesn’t even cross Hasbro’s mind.

Retailers are wasting no time starting their post-Christmas/end of year clearances. I braved my local Target this morning (Plymouth, MN) and snapped a few pics and grabbed a few items as well. At this particular store, you can find the Black Series Centerpiece Vader and Luke for $14.98 (reg. 49.99), Black Series Rogue One 3 pk for $17.98 (reg. $59.99), Target Exclusive Era of the Force Action Figure 8pk. for $19.98 (reg. 39.99) and Poe Dameron’s Ski Speeder for $19.98 (reg. $39.99). Head to your local store to find deals like these and more, and of course, your selection may vary.
Retailers need to have a good sell-through this holiday season, and from what I am starting to witness the week before Christmas, Hasbro’s line appears to be moving better right now than it was at this time in 2015/2016.
