Giant “Hero Series” Millennium Falcon Revealed
YodasNews today has posted the reveal of a large “Hero Series” Millennium Falcon due out later this year. Like the previously announced X-wing Fighter, this vehicle is largely action-featureless save for movable cannons and radar dish (it does not hold action figures of any scale). And despite it looking to have a lot of detail in its sculpt, expect a lower price point due to the simple (hollow) construction and lack of parts. Head on over for additional imagery.

Upcoming Yoda Comparison
Thanks to some previews courtesy of www.andrewstoyz.com and www.yodasnews.com, we have been able to get a closer look at some upcoming Black Series 3.75″ figures recently.
But the sad truth is, what Hasbro is going to be delivering falls far short of what we thought we were getting for two of the most anticipated figures of 2014. While many people are laughing at how terrible the arm joints look on the upcoming Dagobah Luke, I find the Yoda to be even more saddening. What looked like the ultimate Yoda looks instead to be a figure inferior to many of the past versions we’ve gotten of the little green man.
Thoughts? Am I being too harsh on Hasbro, or do you agree? Sound off in the forums.
The Black Series Wave 4 Images
Andrew’s Toyz has uploaded a fresh batch of TBS series images to their Facebook page. Head on over to check out carded and loose shots of wave 4 from the 3-3/4” and 6″ lines. What do you think? Oy, those elbows on Luke ruin a potentially supendous figure. But hey it’s super articulated so it must be good, right?
UPDATE: YodasNews has posted carded and loose images of Bastila Shan and Dak Ralter to their Facebook page as well.
