Toys R Us is currently running a 2 for $20 sale on Black Series 6” figures. Normally I would say “click through for the details”, but you pretty much have all the details in the headline. So in order to get that click out of you that we desperately need, I promise that you will see me take a poop, a literal poop, on the 6” line. So click through for that.

My God, it’s full of pegs. Friends, the Long Night is over. The Night King has been slain. The thousand generation winter is over and Apollo has lifted his skirt. Could this be considered clickbait? YUP. Am I exaggerating? NOPE! It’s even better than you think (if you are collectors like us who stink of good 3.75” cheer).

We would like to formally announce that we here at Bantha Skull have mastered time travel. First, let me assuage your fears that we will abuse this power. We will only use if for good. In fact, our only time travel act will be to undo those four consecutive championships the Cleveland Browns recently won because of the damage it did to our national psyche. Please click through for our scientific findings which are currently under peer review.

This was an issue first raised by our friends at Jedi Temple Archives. The 40th Anniversary Titanium collector figures have terrible paint applications. While the one I saw today is not quite as anatomically hilarious as the one JTA posted, it did strike me funny that it looks like Solo is rolling his eyes. I’m rolling my eyes too, Han ole buddy. Hasbro please fire this factory before spring 2018.

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 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).
Please note that the title is a question mark. I don’t want to over represent the status of my local stores as an indictment of the line as a whole. Only Toys R Us stores in my area are taking serious 6” Black Series deluxe stock and at both stores, the boxes are starting to pile up. Given that in this pic the basic 6” figures are leftover from last Christmas, I’m getting more confident in my developing contention that there is no collector depth for the 6” line.

Hasbro has released some new press images of the upcoming Deluze Luke and Wampa, Han and Tauntaun, and the basic Han as Stormtrooper and Bossk. There is something off about Bossk and I can’t put my finger on it. Is the lower body too puffy compared to the upper torso? Click through for the gallery.
