The Vengaza Media Gazette has visual confirmation via Star Wars Action News of what is assumed to be a 6” Boba Fett in the Walgreens computers.
I know it’s a bit of schadenfreude, but seeing lots of Angry Birds product placed on clearance in advance of Target’s next reset gives me “I told you so” joy. I also know that every packaging style gets placed on clearance eventually, but once again, a glut of Angry Birds Star Wars product remained unsold.
A US Ebay seller has wave 4 of the 3.75” Black Series line in stock and ready to ship. Click here to check out their store. To the best of my knowledge this is the first time these items have showed up in the US.
I my recent “I love everything” mood, I love this. YouTubers The Unusual Suspects have created a Guardians of the Galaxy style trailer using footing from the Original Trilogy. Watch with me for a bit, won’t you:

This deal keeps getting worse all the time. According to CNN (via my local affiliate) the broken leg Harrison Ford suffered at the hands of the Millennium Falcon door required surgery. The surgery was a success and the star of my favorite childhood movies is recovering.
Okay, I admit this is pushing the boundaries a bit for a site that focuses on Star Wars coverage, but I think it’s cool. This video from Harley-Davidson teases their new electric motorcycle and it has a vague auditory resemblance to a speed bike. I want one. But I’d probably crash into a redwood.
The site Comic Book Resources does an outstanding job of determining when exactly did the movies Star Wars become titled “Episode IV - A New Hope” while dispelling many incorrectly held beliefs a long the way. I found it a very interesting read to go with my morning coffee and hope you do too.
Our favorite diorama maker, Boutros77 has written in to let us know that a smaller version of the Jabba’s Main Hall, which we reviewed here, is available for those with space concerns. You can see examples on Carl’s Flickr page.
If you would like to order a diorama, and I personally vouch for the quality, you can contact Carl here.
The site Action Figure Fury is reporting that the UPC on the 6” Boba Fett that will be released in the 8 figure case assortment is different from the UPC of the Boba Fett released in wave 2.

Disney Consumer Products has announced what the highest selling merchandised Star Wars item is. The answer is the lightsaber (presumably as pronounced by Count Dooku).
