There is another. We have received word that Hasbro will be unveiling an official Jedi-Con 2014 exclusive figure on July 28. And according to this image from JediBusiness, it looks like it may feature (6″?) C-3PO*. What do you think? Leave a comment here or in our forums.
Note: For clarity sake, IF this does include C-3PO, it is probably a simple variant on packaging or an included accessory. It is not meant to imply that 3PO is exclusive to Jedi-Con as we know that it will be available in future Black Series assortments.
We’ve received word that orders for the custom Space Trees from TwelfthParsec have started to arrive for collectors. Click on through to our forums for a great set of images courtesy of customizer my kind of scum.
The current Yakfinities Customizing Challenge runs through July 31 – have you gotten your entry in yet? If not, head to the forums to submit your custom, or check out the latest entries by clicking here.
UPDATE: Deadline is July 31 for this one due to an oversight on my part. Sorry for the confusion.
Did you get in on the Space Trees playset campaign by TwelfthParsec? If so, keep an eye on your emails as shipping notices wills start going out this week for those who contributed to the Early Bird campaign. And once you have your sets in hand, remember to share some pics in the forums!
Few things in the hobby excite me as much as seeing collectors who know how to display their stuff in massive dioramas, so when forum member Buried Egg shared pics of his Emperor’s Arrival scene, I immediately felt ashamed of my personal pathetic display of this icon scene, and had to share his work with all of you.
It’s stuff like this that inspires me to customize more when I can, and put extra effort into photonovels and the like. For more of his work and other great dioramas by Yakface forum members, head to the forums.
After a bit of a delay between updates, localgotal strikes back with a vengeance with his latest additions to the popular Concept Series lineup he’s created. This latest update harkens back to the roots of the Star Wars saga, and includes three figures that are long overdue for updates by Hasbro.
Why they aren’t making figures like he proposes is quite beyond my capacity. Check them out, enjoy the pics, and join in the discussion after the jump!
Yakface forum member Darth Kikinou has informed us of many new photonovel additions to The Photonovel Alliance – including some great new Indiana Jones adventures by Lance Quazar, and the most recent installment in The Enloe Trials by yours truly.
Kick off your shoes and make yourself comfortable with your morning coffee and spend some time checking out some of the great Star Wars adventures housed on his site – I would argue that some of the creativity and storytelling there rivals the work professionals who get paid to do this for a living.
This evening we invite you to take a peek into the customizing world of forum member Evilivo. This customizer specializes in upgrading figures of characters most of us already have, and the results are outstanding. Head to the forums for a closer look at his recent work.
Yakface forum member Raylen has just released for purchase his latest diorama accessory piece — the contraption droids fear most – the Droid Torture Rack!
You can order this awesome environment piece for your collection at Holeinthegroundpro.com, and feel free to discuss this latest diorama-builder offering in the forums.
Personal Note: I’ve ordered several items from Raylen, and have been very impressed with each item. His products are top notch quality, and they fill in huge gaps that have been missing in my scenes, from cantina chairs to Imperial accessory pieces.
