YAK’S TOP TEN: EXPANDED UNIVERSE
Yak’s Top Ten is back for another round, taking us into another realm!
What figures do you want to see made in The Vintage Collection from the Expanded Universe? Post your TVC wishlist HERE.
You can also do the same thing for the 6″ scale line in The Black Series. Post your 6″ TBS wishlist right HERE.
Note: Wish lists may also be posted in the comments section of this article. You may post both a TVC and TBS list, but please do not post your wish lists in this comments section AND in the forums. And please indicate if you’re referring to TVC or TBS with each list.
Also, we’re keeping Expanded Universe (or Legends if you want to call it that) pretty open to any time period, and not being strict here on what you want to define this as – but the trend in the forums seems to be “pre-Disney” genre, such as KOTOR, Shadows of the Empire, Thrawn Trilogy, The Force unleashed, etc.
Yakfinities #70: DROIDS
A new Yakfinities Customizing Challenge is currently underway, and the theme is DROIDS.
So, roll up your sleeves and cobble together a droid of your own… or better yet, let’s see what kind of painting skills you’ve got too! Or if that’s not your cup of tea, you can still check out the most recent entries by clicking here.
Personal Note: The roundup report for Yakfinities #69 is coming soon – with over 150 custom entries, it’s taking longer than usual – apologies for the delay!
Yak’s Top Ten: Return of the Jedi

TBS 3.75″ @ Ross
Some Ross stores are getting in TBS 3.75″ figures for the ridiculously low price of $2.99 (Sandtrooper, Ponda Baba, Tusken Raider, Boba Fett – Prototype Armor). Thanks to forum member EndorJunkie for the heads up!
Personal Note: These former Walmart exclusive figures are great for army building and custom fodder; and really didn’t hit full circulation at Walmart due to some very bad previous wave assortments and terrible distribution. I know that if I see these, I won’t pass them up at this price!
YAK’S TOP TEN: THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK
Yak’s Top Ten is back for another round, taking us back to 1980!

You can also do the same thing for the 6″ scale line in The Black Series. Post your 6″ TBS wishlist right HERE.

Hole in the Ground Pro Crowdfunding Extension
Hole in the Ground Pro has extended their deadline for injection molded diorama parts! If you like having some cool display pieces to fill in your action figure displays, then now is the time to help make this happen! Click HERE to get in on this collector campaign!
Personal Note: If the collecting community can’t fund this, we might have a very hard time finding future opportunity for such great items down the road from this small company or other entrepreneurs. Eric makes top quality product that is well worth the money. Let’s make this happen folks, it can open the door to even better stuff down the road!
Target Trooper 6-pk
Hasbro’s new Imperial Trooper 6-pk (exclusive to Target) is starting to show up at stores. If you don’t see it on the shelf you may find some success by kindly asking customer service if they can locate DPCI: 087-16-0135 and they might pull it for you from the stockroom. Good luck!
