Hole logo 2 w text web

For all you diorama fans, forum member Raylen has just revealed a special sneak peek at a new 3.75″ scale item I am guessing many of you are going to want to add to your collections.  Soon, he will have them available for order at his site.

For now, head on over the forums and for a glimpse at what’s to come…

Personal Note:  Shut up and take my money!

Rebels Vehicles: Loose In-Hand Pics

It’s been quite some time since collectors have had much to get excited about when it comes to  Hasbro’s vehicle offerings.  But that may change with the new assortment just now starting to hit from the Rebels line.   I really don’t think my pics do these things justice, but I do believe these vehicles are worth every penny!  For a better look, head on over to the forums!

Rebels Vehicles Hit Retail

With just a couple minutes to spare for a quick toy run to Toys”R”us today, I stumbled upon something not seen in quite some time by my weary eyes – 3.75″ scale vehicles worth picking up!   Head on over to the forums for a closer look.

Personal Note:  Priced at $22.99 each, these “mid-size” vehicles offer not only all-new sculpts, but are pretty well made too.  No, they’re not Hasbro’s finest achievement but for what the retailers are charging, it seems like a very fair deal.  These are light years better than all the Jedi Starfighters Hasbro’s been trying to force down our throats for years.  I’ll be getting pics posted of them “loose” as soon as I can, and I can already say I want at least two more walkers.  BTW, my son loves these.

Got Merchants?

Our current customizing challenge focuses on custom made Merchant figures, and runs through the end of September.  That means there’s still plenty of time to roll up your sleeves and start on your own custom figure for this Yakfinities.

So head on over to the forums, and check out the details and the latest entries too.  And remember, our love runs deep for our participants so as always we’ll have some random winners selected that will receive some pretty cool prizes.

Hasbro Toy Talk by Jodo

Forum member Jodo has posted a nice read on his blog about the issues we as collectors are facing these days.

Remember  what it was like to actually look forward to walking into a retail store and know you had a fair chance at finding a Star Wars item you actually wanted to buy?  Remember when Hasbro was more creative and able to interest kids with their toys?  Do you recall the pre-2012 disaster with Hasbro, when they were doing an effective job at managing the Star Wars brand?
