It’s sad news enough that Toys R Us seems to be disappearing, but on the heals of the liquidation news, today we learned the founder and former CEO Charles Lazarus has died.
We received invaluable information. I can tell you this right now. If you can budget the expense and are at all interested in the Sail Barge, you’re a fool if you don’t #backthebarge.

Thank you to Paul Harrison at Jedi Temple Archives for this alert. In addition to a painted prototype, Entertainment Weekly revealed that AN EXCLUSIVE BI-LINGUAL POTF ‘85 CARDED YAK FACE WILL COME WITH THE HASLAB SAIL BARGE.
YOU WILL ABLE TO SELL THIS FIGURE FOR AT LEAST HALF THE COST OF THE SAIL BARGE IF YOU DON’T INTEND TO KEEP IT.
THIS WILL BE ONE OF THE RAREST CARDED STAR WARS FIGURES IN HISTORY.
This news is so unbelievable, not just because THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE SUGGESTED EARLIER, that we were slow to post. But it’s 100% official. Click through for the full sized image.

The novelization to Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi, written by Jason Fry, was released on March 6, 2018 and published by Del Rey. Now, I’m not going to go into an exhaustive summary of the book since it is based on a movie that everyone reading this has almost certainly seen at least once.

Our friends at Litzky PR were generous enough to send us a box that included the new The Last Jedi Battle on Crait 4-pack (read the review here), as well as a digital copy of The Last Jedi itself. Chris will drone on and on about the awesomeness of “Movies Anywhere,” if you let him. But after just a few minutes of downloading the app on my devices, I can see where he’s coming from. It also works on smart TV’s, if you have any. This may actually be better than Blu-Rays. Thanks, Litzky, for changing my life.
