On Wednesday, Hasbro dropped the game changing news that the Sail Barge will include a Vintage Collection Yak Face on an exclusive POTF ‘85 replica bi-lingual card.

It’s sad news enough that Toys R Us seems to be disappearing, but on the heals of the liquidation news, today we learned the founder and former CEO Charles Lazarus has died.
We received invaluable information. I can tell you this right now. If you can budget the expense and are at all interested in the Sail Barge, you’re a fool if you don’t #backthebarge.

Thank you to Paul Harrison at Jedi Temple Archives for this alert. In addition to a painted prototype, Entertainment Weekly revealed that AN EXCLUSIVE BI-LINGUAL POTF ‘85 CARDED YAK FACE WILL COME WITH THE HASLAB SAIL BARGE.
YOU WILL ABLE TO SELL THIS FIGURE FOR AT LEAST HALF THE COST OF THE SAIL BARGE IF YOU DON’T INTEND TO KEEP IT.
THIS WILL BE ONE OF THE RAREST CARDED STAR WARS FIGURES IN HISTORY.
This news is so unbelievable, not just because THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE SUGGESTED EARLIER, that we were slow to post. But it’s 100% official. Click through for the full sized image.
