Yak’s Top Ten: The Prequel Trilogy

Leave a comment

We are well aware that Hasbro is starting to dabble in repacking some figures from The Prequel Trilogy into The Vintage Collection. We’re even starting to see some more attention on The Clone Wars. However, many of us want to see Hasbro actually deliver all-new product from the prequel films still, so we have started a new Yak’s Top Ten in our forums focusing on The Prequel Trilogy!

What are the top ten figures that you most desperately want to see made in The Vintage Collection from The Prequel Trilogy? Post your TVC wish list HERE.

You can also do the same thing for the 6″ scale line in The Black Series. Post your 6″ TBS wish list 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 remember to indicate if you’re referring to TVC or TBS with each list.

TVC Freezing Chamber In-Hand Pics and Thoughts

Leave a comment
While some do not like the lack of the “claw” and the “non-playset” design, I personally find the approach that Hasbro took by allowing for collectors to add lighting elements and modular stair designs based on their own approach as a huge plus. The aesthetics are nice, however, this thing is not meant for play (the steps will fall right off). But as a display item, it’s pretty nifty.

Hasbro’s TVC Freezing Chamber has been arriving on doorsteps via Gamestop the past few days. I snapped a few pics of a quick setup in the forums that you can see by clicking here.

Do you love this thing, or hate it? I’ve seen some passionate views noted on social media from both angles. Since I’ve been begging for collector oriented displays for over two decades now, I’m pretty excited to have this in my collection now. So, I’m biased for sure. Let us know what you think!

Yak’s Top Ten: The Original Trilogy Winners

Leave a comment

The results are in for the most recent Yak’s Top Ten, which is none other than The Original Trilogy. 

There was a different top placement in The Vintage Collection vs. The Black Series. In fact, barely any crossover was present between the two scales at all.

Check out which figures Yakface readers said they want to see made the most in The Vintage Collection by clicking HERE.

We have tallies for the most wanted additions to The Black Series as well, check out the 6-inch scale results by clicking HERE.

Another Yak’s Top Ten has just kicked off in the forums. We’ll be posting those details soon.

Target Galaxy’s Edge Toy Runs – Success or Bust?

Leave a comment
Above purchased at Target in Arnold, MO.

Target stores began putting their new Galaxy’s Edge product out today (new end caps set up in many instances). I picked up most of what I wanted, and saw several other collectors grabbing some new goodies as well.

Did you go out this morning looking for the new product at your local Target? Were you successful or did you come back disappointed? Let us know in the comments here or in our forums, and happy toy hunting!
