Those looking to pick up the Clone Wars Rise of Boba Fett Ultmate Battle Pack might want to hold out for one more week, as this is going to be part of the Toys”R”Us Big Toy Book promotion starting on 10/31. This set will be on sale for $79.99 – a savings of $20- $30 depending on your store’s pricing.
The newest wave of mid-sized vehicles are beginning to show up at Toys”R”us, among them being the outstanding Republic Swamp Speeder. This is easily one of Hasbro’s better efforts – check out some loose pics for yourself in the forums.
Toys”R”Us updates their sales this week with a nice discount on the NEW Rise of Boba Fett Ultimate Battle Pack and it is now $89.99! (A $10 to $20 savings depending on your store’s pricing) Also this week, the Radio Controlled Hailfire Droid is marked down to $49.99 (from $59.99). And as we reported earlier this week, the Exclusive Nikto Guard is now free with a Star Wars purchase over $30.00.
The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of the Toys”R”Us exclusive Nikto Guard from the Clone Wars Collection.
PROS: Finally, we’ve received the figure that was originally intended to be included with the Clone Wars Jabba’a Palace Battle Pack from 2008. A great looking figure all around and well accessorized.
CONS: Lack of articulation in the legs limits poses available and the pre-posed leg positioning tends to make this figure unstable. A rather generic figure for an exclusive and the $10+ pricepoint might hamper this figure’s sell-through at retail.
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.
Yakface reader Darth Stringfield was informed by a Toys”R”us employee yesterday that starting on Sunday, this figure will be free with a $30.00 purchase. If this indeed true, it may be worth a trip to your local store to add this figure to your collection.
There are a lot of deals to be had on Star Wars goodies this week at Toys”R”Us. Starfighter Assortment Vehicles, Legos, Role Play, Legends and Clone Wars figures are all on sale. Plus qualifying purchases can earn you free $5 or $10 gift cards!
This exclusive figure has now been found at retail! Specifically, at a Toys”R”Us in central Iowa by forumite Grimace.

Yakface Forum Member “Grimace” scored new Clone Wars figures from wave 3 today at his local Toys “R” Us. Wave 3 consists of Ki-Adi Mundi, Flamethrower Clone Trooper and Clone Pilot “Goji”. Nice find!
Upon visiting my local Toys”R”Us today, I managed to take a peek at the planogram been used to reset the aisle and it indicates that the exclusive Clone Wars Nikto Guard (Puko Naga) is part of this reset and should be hitting stores in the next few days.
