Boshuda…. Is this the new Jabba the Hutt? MAYBE, MAYBE NOT<\/b><\/span>

\nThe intel operatives at\u00a0Sandtroopers<\/a>\u00a0have gotten their hands on a prototype photo of what they speculate is the upcoming all-new Jabba the Hutt for the Legacy Collection (or what ever they’ll be calling it in 2010). Looks fantastic to me, so hopefully this spy reports pans out for all of us. Head over to Sandtroopers or click the photo above to see what you think.<\/p>\n

Update: I received an email from a trusted source saying this is probably from a different manufacturer (non-Hasbro).<\/p>\n

Update 2: Received another email and for now the verdict is out as to what this might be but it sure gets the Jabba drool flying with anticipation for whatever Hasbro officially reveals.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nChristmas is coming, and the toy aisles are humming! From Hasbro figures to vehicles, to Christmas decorations at Target, gift packages at Toys R Us, and lots of party supplies at Factory Card Outlet. So much Star Wars everywhere, and we try to run down as much of it as we can on this week’s Star Wars Action News.<\/p>\n

Then also this week we have some in depth reviews. Have you been eying one of the flying vehicles, either the Jedi Starfighter or the Gunship? Arnie and Marjorie do their “consumer reports” rundown on the flying Jedi Starfighter to let you know if it’s worth your hard earned money.<\/p>\n

Then Jerry joins us for an in-depth look at Hasbro and Kenner 3.75″ scale AT-STs. With the new Wal Mart exclusive super AT-ST, Jerry takes us back in time to the Kenner vintage original and then all the rereleases through the years.<\/p>\n

And finally this week, perhaps you’ve heard that the new book The Complete Vader has had its release date pushed back from October, 2009 to October *2011*! Arnie already got his preorder from Amazon, and he reviews this book and discusses the issues surrounding its recall.<\/p>\n

With your voice mails and what’s new at Brian’s Toys, it’s all this week on Star Wars Action News!<\/p>\n

Wattographs Autograph Signings: Jabba the Hutt CS & Wayne Pygram!<\/b><\/span>
\nNovember 9, 2009 | 9:50 PM EST |\u00a0Brandon<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Wattographs is pleased to close 2009 with the debut of the next in our Connoisseur Series, Jabba the Hutt! This exciting piece features the creative team behind the vile gangster and will be signed by Mike Edmonds (Jabba’s tail), Dave Barclay (Chief Jabba puppeteer), Toby Philpott (Jabba’s Head & Arm), Howie Hammerman (Jabba’s burps!), as well as John Coppinger (Jabba sculptor) Mike Quinn, Bob Keen, Jez-Gibson Harris, and Richard Padbury. Sizes are available in 11×14 and 16×20. We are also taking fans’ personal items for individual autographs also.<\/p>\n

Wayne Pygram portrayed the sinister Governor Tarkin in the closing scenes of “Episode III: Revenge of the Sith” While his role was intended for dialogue, it was shortened to joining Vader & the Emperor to gaze at his destructive creation. Pygram is no stranger to movies or television having appeared in abc’s LOST & as Scorpious on ‘Farscape.’ Mr. Pygram will be signing official photographs and fans’ personal items!<\/p>\n

Orders for the Jabba the Hutt CS will be taken through December 1st. Signing for Wayne Pygram ends on December 3th. Personal items need to be in Scott’s possession by those dates. Please see site for full details!<\/p>\n

After a rough stretch where most collectors are finding mostly shipments of Legends figures or Clone Wars, many are wondering if the final Legacy waves of 2009 are going to be hard to find at retail.<\/p>\n

Over the past couple of weeks however the ROTJ wave has been hitting many Target stores in healthy numbers. And just today I found the ANH wave at a Wal-Mart and the ROTS wave at a TRU (both in the St. Louis area).<\/p>\n

So keep your eyes open and your wallets ready Yakkers; there’s a lot that could be hitting your stores over the next few weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nA mint on card Vlix. A life sized bronze Yoda statue. A custom action figure of Steve Sansweet in an Ewok outfit. There are some collectibles that we collectors will never get, either due to cost, availability, the fact that they are one of a kind, or perhaps simply because we don’t know about them. But with Steve Sansweet’s new book 1,000 Collectibles — Memorabilia and Stories From A Galaxy Far, Far Away we can find out abot some of these items, as well as some more common ones such as Monkey-Face Leia from 1995’s Power of the Force 2 line.
