\nShould vintage figures, be forgot, and never brought to light! Let vintage figures stay in dark and keep them safe and dry!<\/p>\n

2007 was the 30th anniversary of Star Wars and an expensive year for many, many collectors. Throw in the end of the Master Replicas and it was a very crazy year, but as a result many collectors are vowing to change their collecting habits in 2008. Star Wars Action News put out the call for listeners to call in with their collecting resolutions for 2008 and many people called in. We play those resolutions and next year we’ll check in with these callers to see how they did.<\/p>\n

Also this week we look at the ploethera of 3.75″ exclusives Target put out over the holiday season. All were repaints, but were they worth it? Arnie and Marjorie review them this week.<\/p>\n

Thank you for listening.<\/p>\n

You can download this week’s show from\u00a0swactionnews.com<\/a>, the\u00a0standard version<\/b>\u00a0directly\u00a0here<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0enhanced version<\/b>\u00a0directly\u00a0here.<\/a><\/p>\n

Thanks for listening!<\/p>\n

A big thanks to Arnie, Marjorie and the entire SWAN team for another informative and entertaining year of podcasts. We here at Yakface appreciate all of the time and effort that you all put into these each week and we can’t wait to hear what 2008 brings!<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Wattographs Private Autograph Signing -Sandi Finlay!<\/b><\/span>
\nDecember 27, 2007 | 11:57 AM EST |\u00a0Brandon<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Wattographs has lined up a great signing with Sandi Finlay, the mysterious aide to Chancellor Palpatine, Sly Moore. Sandi doesn’t do much in the realm of convention appearances, so she’s an uncommon autograph. We have a whopping SEVEN photo choices this go-round, ranging in price from $29.99 to $34.99. We have to purchase specific minimums of images in order to get a price break from Official Pix, hence the reason for price differences. The higher priced photos reflect the ones we cannot purchase in bulk, due to the variety of images offered.<\/p>\n

As we always try to offer, you can send your personal items for this signing. Please remember that all personal items sent will be handled in accordance with our personal item policy. Personal item prices range from $29.99-$39.99. All personal items must be to us by Wednesday, January 2, 2008 to be included in this signing. Make sure you read our testimonials to see what people have to say about our autograph services. Shipping will be included with each order, when you check out with PayPal. If you desire anything like insurance or other extras, please contact us for those options. As always, please feel free to email us with questions or comments!<\/p>\n

www.Wattographs.com<\/a>!<\/p>\n

*Note: We’re pleased to announce the Wattographs is one of our new sponsors for Yakface.com and our forums. We look forward to having Wattographs on board!<\/span><\/p>\n

\nTo all contributing Star Wars fan sites:<\/p>\n

Wow! It’s hard to believe, but here we are at the end of 2007, and what a great year it has been for Star Wars! What made our job extra fun was being able to interact with everyone via the Q&A (and, in some cases, live and in person at CIV, C Europe, and Comic Con) this year. It\u2019s the passion and dedication displayed by you and your members that keeps the Star Wars collecting community vibrant, informed and excited about the future \u2013 and it\u2019s that very same energy that keeps us focused. We look forward to working with everyone in 2008. And what a year 2008 is shaping up to be….!<\/p>\n

Happy Holidays…. The Star Wars and Indiana Jones Team.<\/i><\/p>\n

Thanks to all those who submitted or inspired questions that we sent to Hasbro and a huge thanks to Hasbro for the opportunity. With that, get your Hasbro QnA fix\u00a0here!<\/a><\/p>\n

The QnA will again be taking a brief Holiday season break so look for them to return January 18, 2008. Until then, keep sending in your burning questions!<\/span><\/p>\n

We’ve received a few e-mails regarding some Force Unleashed products hitting retail. Here is one from Yakreader “dukenny”<\/p>\n

“I was at a Toys R Us in Milford, CT today and they had 3 Force Unleashed color changing lightsabers on the shelf. They appeared to change from red to green. I didn’t spend a lot of time looking at them since I don’t collect the sabers. Just letting you guys know that some Force unleashed stuff is getting out there in time for Christmas!”<\/i><\/p>\n

Thanks for the report!<\/p>\n

Keep those eyes open folks, with all the merchandise turn over at retail right now the toy aisle can change dramatically from day to day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Toyguide Update: #54 Pax Bonkik<\/b><\/span>

\nThe Toyguide updates today with the addition of\u00a0Pax Bonkik<\/a>, the 54th figure in the TAC line. Not a whole lotta love for “new” TPM figures over the past year, but here we are treated to the Rodian Pod Racer Mechanic and former slave, Pax Bonkik. This figure is a decent repaint of one of my personal favorite VTSC figures:\u00a0Greedo<\/a>. About the only thing this figure is missing is some tools, a Pit Droid, or perhaps his brother Trax.<\/p>\n

\nThe year is winding down and our thoughts can’t help but turn to the big Star Wars moments of 2008. 2008 will be a big year for Star Wars, and one of the first salvos Lucasfilm will be firing at your wallet is The Force Unleashed. Delayed from 2007, The Force Unleashed will be a game, a book, comics, toys, and more. Already some Force Unleashed items are appearing on shelves, the minis. Guest reviewer Darth Cheddar provides us a review of these items.<\/p>\n

Also this week we talk about the latest finds of exclusive and hard to find items. And finally this week, TheGingerPrince brings us up to speed on all the items he’s finding over in the UK.<\/p>\n

\nThe Toyguide updates continue with the\u00a0Rebel Vanguard Trooper<\/a>, the 53rd figure in the TAC line. Another welcome addition to the rebel ranks. This figure is based on one of the playable characters in the popular Battlefront II video game. It’s essentially a repainted black Endor Soldier with Rebel Fleet Trooper helmet and a new Rocket Launcher (also available in the Battle Droid BFII set.)<\/p>\n

\nThe Toyguide updates continue with the\u00a0Naboo Soldier<\/a>, the 52nd figure in the TAC line. The yellow\u00a0Tonka Driver<\/a>\u00a0from the TSC line gets a crimson compatriot. This version is from the Naboo hanger in Episode I as well, this time in a red uniform and is outfitted with a removable helmet and Naboo Blaster. Too bad we didn’t receive a soft goods coat for him as well to add a little more variety in our Naboo Soldiers.<\/p>\n

\nThe Toyguide updates today with a sampling of figures from the repaint wave (7.5). First up is the\u00a07th Legion Clone Trooper<\/a>, the 49th figure in the TAC line. Based off of some early concept art for ROTS, we first got a taste of this design in the Clone Trooper\u00a0“Build Your Army”<\/a>\u00a03-Packs from 2005. Now, we get the fully articulated Evolutions body and blaster and a removable helmet to boot.<\/p>\n

Hasbro News: New Product Information Releases<\/b><\/span>
\nDecember 17, 2007 | 6:52 PM EST |\u00a0Jayson<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Looks like all those “rumors” floating around have hit a nerve with\u00a0Hasbro<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The coming year is going to be very exciting for Hasbro\u2019s boys properties. We realize that fans are anticipating 2008 as much as we are, and that speculation on our line is a large part of the excitement. Fans of Hasbro\u2019s boys brands may be noticing some information circulating on the web. While you may be tempted to believe that this information is accurate, we want to remind our fans, that unless product information or images are posted on an official Hasbro brand site, brand Q&A, or released by Hasbro\u2019s Corporate Communications team,\u00a0the information is not authorized and therefore not official. We do not want to get consumer hopes up when rumors turn out to be unfounded.<\/b><\/p>\n

We can\u2019t wait to share great information, images and products with fans of all ages at the appropriate time as determined by Hasbro and, as appropriate, our licensors.<\/i><\/p>\n

With that, take all the rumors you’ve heard as of late with a grain of salt.<\/p>\n

2008 Hasbro Rumor Lists Updated<\/b><\/span>

Our friends over at\u00a0Rebelscum.com<\/a>\u00a0have updated with the 411 on 2008 from Hasbro, and to say the least– even before you consider the Indiana Jones line— it’s looking like a very expensive year. By now you’ve probably already seen the weekend’s big news that a very big vehicle– the 100 buck ATTE is slated for the Clone Wars, well it looks like fans dreams of a much larger Falcon may be coming true as well.\u00a0Check it out here.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Waves 7 & 7.5 & 8 Seen at Local Target<\/b><\/span>
\nDecember 16, 2007 | 7:16 PM EST |\u00a0Holocron_Master_Nick<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

I was doing some Christmas shopping at my Local Target and while I’ve seen some of waves 7 and 7.5 here and there but very scarcely. I just happened to see a worker put up Number 57 Jango Fett with blue poncho and helmet and I snatched him up, even though I’m in the One of Each Club with Brian’s Toys, it seems they are slow out of the gates with these waves. So start looking people cuz they’re out there and good luck!! And have a great holiday season.
\nAnd BTW I’m ripping through the latest Legacy of the Force book Fury and should have the review out fairly soon, so far I can tell you its already worth buying or reading, but I’ll give more in my review.
\nAlso a little bit off subject, but I found the latest wave of G.I. Joe figures the one with Destro as Iron Grenadiers leader, Sgt. Flash, the laser rifle trooper, Snow Job, acrtic trooper, which btw is probably one of the coolest besides the Crimson Guard figure that I also got, so the only one left for me to get is the Snake Eyes remake of version one. I wish I could supply pics but I’m very new at this Internet HTML stuff, so if I can figure it out, I’ll post the pics in the correct forum.<\/span><\/p>\n
