We would like to wish all of our readers a very safe and happy October 31st today!
This chapter was completed in September, but in the spirit of the season, an army of undead Stormtroopers and other creatures await you in the forums in Chapter IV of The Enloe Trials photonovel series.
Take a few minutes to kick back and enjoy the latest installment of this series as Rykrof Enloe and a small band of rebels struggle to fend off their flesh eating enemies; and stay tuned for previews of the next chapter in the coming weeks.
The second wave of The Black Series has been sighted at big box retailers stateside… head on over to the forums for the full scoop, and thanks to forum member combatJedi for the report!
Massive dioramas are always a treat, especially when someone goes to such great lengths to create such an extensive environment like forum member XTSOperative has with his Red Hand battle diorama. Check out all the pics of this great setup after the jump!
While collectors are anxiously awaiting to receive their pre-ordered playset walls in the coming weeks, Galactic Merchants teases us with their first 3.75″ scale figure. Check out a full sized pic of this latest masterpiece in the forums, and be sure to follow their Facebook page here!
If you pre-ordered the Amazon exclusive Droid Factory wave, you may want to check your order status. Forum member JawaKing‘s order now shows as shipped, with an estimated arrival date of October 31.
Customizers participating in Yakfinities #50 also have a shot at winning these figures too (hint, hint)!
Reports are coming in from collectors finding Kmart’s outstanding exclusive sets across the country, and reports of those who ordered online receiving their orders as well (though some have received mixed orders).
Our friends at Jedi Temple Archives are also reporting these sets are showing up in good numbers.
Our 50th Yakfinities Customizing Challenge continues as several customizers have already contributed to the latest theme, The Original Trilogy!
The entries thus far have been outstanding, and in addition to our standard random winners, someone will win the Amazon exclusive Droid Factory wave for the grand prize!
Whether you’ve never customized before or are a crafty veteran, head on over to the forums and and show off your skills!
Forum member CloneCrazy has shared another chapter in his Shroud of Darkness photonovel series for your viewing pleasure. Check it out and enjoy his latest Clone Wars photonovel installment after the jump!
These figures may not be to everyone’s liking, but last year’s second wave of Movie Heroes had some really nicely sculpted figures with very acceptable articulation and they are showing up at Five Below locations, for the wonderful price of $5.00 per figure.
Personal Note: I can’t help but wonder if 2012 would have shaken out different if Hasbro had put this sort of effort into the Movie Heroes line at the 2012 launch; and supplemented the line with better figures for repacks rather than the direction they took. If Hasbro had put more effort into the kid line for 2012, and Movie Heroes had not crashed and burned, would we even be seeing 5POA figures at all?
