One Day Sale at Toys”R”Us – Today Only!
Toys”R”us is having a one-day sale that appears to have slipped under the radar – the Battle on Endor Battle Pack! Most of us already have the pack-ins from this set and it seems many of our forum members see this set as a waste of time, but it’s still a good value for this price. Sale valid in-store and online
Have you bought this set yet or does this sale price push you toward finally making this purchase? Head on over the forums and share your thoughts.
Personal Note: I think Hasbro should have dumped the AT-ST and added in the new Speederbike mold and a slightly revised POTF2 Endor Bunker (with new doors and new paint scheme) instead. I know I would have been more likely to purchase this set if that were the case, and I have a hunch many of you would have too.
Episode 40: Like A Bossk
Our show returns this week as Flyguy and I discuss the latest in Star Wars news and collecting.

Sideshow announces the imminent preorder of our favorite protocol droid, while ANOVOS reveals new Imperial Officer duds for cosplay fans. All this and more on Episode 40 of The Realm Recap.

New 6″ Black Series Images
Hasbro has released new deluxe and basic boxed and loose images for the 6″ Black Series line. Click on through to check out Han in Stormtrooper Disguise, Bossk, and the previously discussed Wampa with Luke and Tauntaun with Han Solo,
6″ Deluxe Tauntaun and Wampa Boxed Images
YodasNews spreads word that retailer Andrew’s Toyz has posted images of the upcoming 6″ Deluxe Tauntaun with Han Solo and Wampa with Luke Skywalker. Don’t these just scream to have a Hoth background inserted in them?
Black Series Vader Neck Issue Fixed
Despite opinions to the contrary, the Black Series Darth Vader (#26) suffered from a horrible neck design that essentially rendered the figure to “look, don’t touch” status. We are very happy to share that Hasbro has indeed addressed the known issue (by their admission) and the Black Series #03 Vader now features an updated sculpt with longer neck peg.
Thanks to Dan from StarWarsCollector.com for bringing this to our attention.
