I don’t have much in the way of Vintage Star Wars figure, nor do I know much about all the different versions of them out there so threads like this I really enjoy. Forum member, Sithman, has posted some of his collection of Vintage Star Wars variant figures.

According to this article, Toys R Us is not renewing their lease when it comes back up in 2016. Though it isn’t confirmed, it is thought they will be moving to a location still on Broadway, but no longer in Times Square.
Check in on our forums and let us know your thoughts.
I just wanted to call some attention to a project that is going on for a fellow customizer and Bantha Skull board member, Meddatron, a brother to many of us, who has fallen on some hard times. Health being one of those things that can hit us hardest at the worst times, he has felt the brunt of this lately. A growing number of fellow customizers from all over are coming together to do something nice for him that he will remember for years to come. It doesn’t have to be big, you don’t have to do anything but help us nail down some ideas or point us in the right direction, but join us in putting a smile back on our friend’s face, won’t you? Click the link below and see what we’ve got going, then please join the forum and give us a hand!

Site sponsor Big Bad Toy Store has Black Series 6” 2015 Wave 2 up for pre-order. Click through for half foot versions of Leia in Boushh disguise, IG-88 and Commander Cody.
This is one of those things that seems too big to be as under-reported as it is. Nevertheless, the site iKwiz is reporting that JJ Abrams asked Disney to move up the release date of The Force Awakens and Disney is considering a summer release. This makes me as happy as the Patriots winning the Super Bowl (suck it, haters).
Well wonders will never cease. The first of the virtually non-existent Rebels vehicles has shown up on Hasbro Toy Shop. The AT-DP is now available and in stock (not a pre-order). Combine that with the code 15OFF which was provided by our own Darth Mire and you will get (drum roll) 15% off.
Our friends at Jedi Temple Archives and Yakface have already been on the case of reporting upcoming case assortments, and we too can now join the fray and corroborate their reports. Click through for what we’ve learned about upcoming Black Series, Mission Series and Saga Legends assortments.

In what has been the most drawn out and staggered post holiday reset in my memory, my local WM finally revamped the action figure aisle and unsurprisingly The Black Series 3.75” is on clearance for $7.00. Is Walmart dropping the SKU (again!) or are they clearing the decks for the awesome figures we saw at NYCC that are due next month? It could be anything. One this is for sure: EVERYBODY DRINK!
Our own Duke alerted us that some more 2015 Star Wars LEGO sets were revealed at Toy Fair UK. There are some very cool sets including, what is in my opinion, a must have Throne Room Duel Set. Click through for the pics.

Since our hugely unimportant hobby seems to be tugged at by endless factors that really are important, I thought I would pass this along. Target Canada announced that they will be closing all 133 stores just under two years after its launch.
Our friends at Jedi Temple Archives has confirmed listings of which figures will be included in the next waves of 3.75” Black Series. These are waves 1 and 2 of 2015 with wave 1 expected in March (ugh).
