(Bantha Skull Hasbro Q&A #6)

There are only two days left to submit entries for Bantha Skull’s first giveaway contest!  Be sure to get your entries in as soon as possible or you won’t be able to win!

Head to the forum for the rules.

Tonight’s newsleter not only gave us the details and pre-order of the Han in Carbonite 1/6 Environment that I predicted last week, but also threw us a major curve in that it gave us a new figure preview as well! From the recent video game the Force Unleashed, Sideshow is giving us our first repainted figure, the Stormtrooper Commander. Feel free to join in the conversation on this new figure in our 1/6 forum right after you use our banner to order your Han in Carbonite Environment.

Sideshow Collectibles is giving the Star Wars community a couple of threats during Spooktacular! Tonight they revealed a 1/6 environment Han Solo in Carbonite, and tomorrow a leaked Slave Leia Premium Format statue will be up for order. No official word yet when the Han in Carbonite will go on sale, but recent history suggests it will be available in next week’s newsletter. You can join the discussion on the Han in Carbonite Environment here and the Slave Leia Premium Format here. Don’t forget to use the banner at the top of the page to order these, or visit AP Collectibles if you don’t want the exclusive version and want to save some green.

Hey everyone!  We’re always looking for ways to make you the people happy here at Bantha Skull.  So, how about some free stuff?  Head on over to this thread and read all about our giveaway contest!  You have to be a member to enter, so get your ass signed up today!

This week’s customizer is Bantha Skull’s resident hater, Ruadh.  Though he has pretty much given up the hobby, he still has the bug every now and then.  Mostly focusing on Sandtroopers and Boba Fett, Ruadh’s customs entail everything from simple repaints, to complete part swaps.

Even I checked Clone Wars out for a bit, just to get a taste, and I’m probably the biggest hater I know on the animated feature released a couple months ago. Around 4 million people tuned in to watch the premiere episodes though, naturally with a severe kid demographic. No one is probably surprised that it was the Cartoon Network’s most-watched series premiere ever. If nothing else, it’s keeping Star Wars alive for a while longer. Tune in tonight if you enjoy Ahsoka, as it’s another episode featuring her and that Sky-Guy.

You probably own at least one Master Replica Star Wars prop, helmet, or lightsaber. The company no longer held the license to produce their reproductions of items seen in the Star Wars films as of January of this year, but fans need not fret. Hasbro now has the license and is shipping out the same Force FX sabers MR was producing. Plans are to make some new designs not handled by MR, but for now you can still get the old favorites that aren’t that easy to find under the MR label anymore.

In tonight’s newsletter, Sideshow has revealed that their next 1/6 Star Wars figure will be the 212th Attack Battalion Utapau Clone Trooper! We’ve long been wondering when Sideshow would produce their first clone, and Obi-Wan’s clone army is a great place to start. Keep your eyes out for next week’s newsletter, there’s a good chance it will be your first chance to order this traitor to the Jedi.
