The early word out of day one at Celebration VI is “nothing much new”, but Sol got to spend some time with the madame librarian. While your $25 for this figure will get you a lot of doodads there is one thing it sadly won’t get you. According to Sol, the figure has no lower body articulation. Update: Miscommunication on my part. Her knees are articulated.
Due to work load, laziness, abject poverty and any combination thereof, the administrators of this site will not be on the ground in Orlando, but rest assured that our roving undead reporter, Sol, will be sending in images and info throughout the day.

Bantha Skull reader DarthChuckMc informs us that he’s learned that the price of the K-Mart exclusive AT-ST Driver and Ewok 2-packs will be $14.99. That’s a pretty sweet deal. At that price I hope Hasbro had the foresight to pack the AT-ST drivers at a 2:1 ratio to the Ewoks because the army builders are going to FLY off the shelves. Thanks to DarthChuckMc!
