Action Figure Heaven

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!

Concept Series Returns

Today we get a fun treat from Yakface contributor and forum moderator localgotal – the return of the Yakface Concept Series (with some great eye candy for some new “what if” figures).

With Hasbro seeking fan input, now is the time to get back in the swing of idea sharing, concept art, etc. for the highly anticipated return of The Vintage Collection!

Share your ideas here, in our Concept Series Section, and across the collecting community.

Sail Barge Stalling

Hasbro’s crowd funded Sail Barge endeavor could be in trouble as the pace of new backers has stalled significantly over the past week.

Is now the time to panic?  Or is that a bit premature since there’s still 4 weeks left?  Are you planning on fronting payment for one?  Let us know here or in our forums.

Note:  You can check out some other cool Star Wars inspired famous painting alterations here.   Then after that,  Hasbro would like for you to bow before the mighty Jabba the Hutt and fund his pleasure cruiser at HasLab.

Since Hasbro Wants Ideas

As you are probably aware, Hasbro’s asking collectors like you  for input on figures to fill upcoming waves in the comeback of The Vintage Collection.

So, we thought now would be a great time to remind our readers of some of the amazing concepts for new figures using a combination of new and existing molds that were posted in our forums by different fans, most notably, Yakface Forum moderator localgotal.

So, for inspiration, check out some of the great concepts that were posted HERE, and be sure to be sure to make your voice heard on the Hasbro Pulse Instagram page, and stay tuned as new questions are posed to the collecting community.

Note:  Above figures are a sample of concepts posted in our forums.

Custom Playsets for Sale

Custom playset master EMPIRE has posted some awesome new 3.75″ custom playsets that can be purchased by clicking here.

Personal Note:  I’ve purchased a number of items from him over the past few years and have always been amazed by the quality and durability.  If you have been on the fence about these, I am confident that you won’t be disappointed if you add some of these items to your collection! 

It was fun while it lasted…

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!
