Five Below Strikes Back!
Just as we’re getting geared up for The Black Series figures to start hitting, Five Below now comes through like they did so many times in 2012… this time, with the Darth Malgus wave!
There’s some great figures in this wave, but as we all know, also a ton of TPM figures that Hasbro unfortunately decided they needed to pack into the first three assortments of TVC last year, which crushed distribution for anything past the first few assortments of TVC in 2012.
Anyways – be on the lookout for these if you have a Five Below store in your area and hopefully this means that more waves past this one are on the way!
Yakfinities #48 Roundup Report
The most recent Yakfinities Customizing Challenge, The Clone Wars, has wrapped up and we’ve got nearly 100 customs to show off in the Roundup Report made by Yakface forum members. The participation and quality of entries was off the chart – check out all the submissions and see which random winners are walking away with some Hasbro Star Wars action figures as prizes after the jump!
More Wishful Thinking… :-)
We recently posted a wishlist for SDCC reveals in our forums, and now forum member localgotal has added some outstanding mock-ups for some Cinema Scenes that would sell like hotcakes if Hasbro would just make them like the pics he has shown. Check them out after the jump (but remember, none of this has actually been announced by Hasbro – but it should be!).
The Shroud of Darkness
Forum member CloneCrazy has added another installment to his eye popping photonovel series, The Shroud of Darkness.
If you haven’t caught up to the first chapter yet, you can do so by clicking here. After that, be sure to check out the second installment too, which features an outstanding battle scene as Anakin Skywalker must protect his new bride from terrorists hired by none other than the Viceroy of the Trade Federation!
I must say, all these great new photonovels in the forums recently is starting to make it feel like 2007 all over again!
Yakfinities Deadline Approaching
Customizers have until 11:59pm CST June 30 to submit an entry for Yakfinities #48 – The Clone Wars. Entries can be realistic or animated style for this, and should be in the spirit of the Clone Wars theme.
Head on over to the forums to submit your entry, or to enjoy the most recent entries by clicking here.
The Adventures of Jarred Yunis
Forum member jedimasteradi recently took the photonovel section of the Yakface forums by storm when he launched the first chapter in his new photonovel series, The Adventures of Jarred Yunis.
He has already followed up with Chapter 2 and Chapter 3. Each of these are a fun read and I think any Star Wars fan who enjoys customizing or the art of storytelling will enjoy them. Head on over to the forums and enjoy this great new series after the jump!
Blast From the Past Find at TK Maxx
Toy runs for most us aren’t what they used to be these days, but Yakface forum moderator Paulskywalker came across a fantastic score at his local TK Maxx store in the UK just yesterday… can you guess what it is by the image above? If not, head to the forums and see more…
Hint… it’s not just a comic book…
Just for fun…
San Diego Comic Con is just around the corner, and just for fun, I put together a mockup of what I’d like to see Hasbro announce for The Black Series (in addition to the cool rumors we’ve been hearing regarding figures like Darth Plageuis, etc.).
Head on over to the forums and check it out, and while you’re at it, share your own wishlist too!
Reminder – this is just a fan-fiction mockup!
Naboo Starfighter Sightings
Hasbro’s Naboo Starfighter is one of their better efforts recently, but unfortunately we all know how hard it’s been to track one down due to the overload of Podracers and AAT Tanks in the first assortment of 2012’s Movie Heroes line.
But, even as abysmal as retail has been over the past year for Star Wars merchandise the market actually wants, there’s still hope to find this particular ship if you have a Tuesday Morning or a Gordman’s store in your area. The Naboo Starfighter has been sporadically showing up at these two discount chains in recent weeks – including a recent score by forum member Grimace.
