Our own Big Time Timmy Jim alerts us that the Toys R Us Battle of Geonois 4-packs are marked down to a paltry $22.49 and qualify for Buy One Get One 50% Off. No too shabby.
Instagram is apparently a thing. And LucasFilm launched their official Instagram page with a selfie of Darth Vader.
Based on the huge almost crushing number of attendees this year, Boston Super Megafest 2013 is a big success. Click through to check out our gallery of pics.
