When it rains it leaks. Since Hasbro had these sets on display at SDCC, I feel comfortable is showing images of the Rathtar with Bala-Tik and Probe Droid with Darth Vader have been found at Kmart in Arizona. Both of which confirm our $19.99 pricepoint. Thanks to @agalaxynearby on Instagram for the alert. Click on through for a closer look.

The last unidentified vehicle that we revealed the other day has been discovered. The listing for “Tango Neon Speeder with Tango Neon Pilot” has hit Kmart in Arizona and is actually a Canto Bight Police Speeder with Canto Bight Police Officer. You can see an image of it on various social media outlets. Thanks to the crew at the Toy Run Facebook group for the heads up.
No, these aren’t a new type of walker in the Star Wars Universe. They are a new die cast segment from Hot Wheels where they take the familiar character car concept and apply it to all-terrain vehicles. The All-Terrain Character Cars feature die cast parts and working suspension and come in four and six wheel configurations. The cars have been found at Walmart include Luke Skywalker X-wing Pilot, BB-8, First Order Stormtrooper and Darth Vader.
Speaking of playsets… it looks like Hot Wheels is going to have a Millennium Falcon Ahch-To Playset for Force Friday II. It feature Light Up features and 20 sounds and an exclusive Chewbacca (repack) character car.
(Sorry, can’t share the image.)
As we speculated a couple days ago with our exclusive reveal, we can now 100% confirm that there is a new blue and white Resistance A-Wing (with no Nerf) coming for The Last Jedi. It includes the Force Link play feature as well as a female pilot in green flight suit named Tallie. The packaging also confirms our rumor of a new two pack which we teased here.
Per our report, the A-Wing should retail for $29.99 and the two pack should be $14.99.
Seeing that a 3.75″ Star Destroyer playset for The Last Jedi is on the horizon, we can’t help but speculate on what this will end up looking like.
Will this be a dream playset that that captures the diorama essence of an epic movie environment like collectors have been begging for in the 3.75″ scale for over two decades now? Or will it feature over-exaggerated “play” features? Or could it be a well balanced mix? How big will it be? Will it feel worth the asking MSRP of $199.99?
