Bring on the Barge! We have partnered with several other fan sites to solicit support for a 3-3/4? scale Jabba’s Sail Barge Vehicle/Playset. Hasbro has shown interest in building such a vehicle but we need to let them know WE WANT IT by gathering as many signatures as possible and presenting them to the Star Wars brand team at Toy Fair. Head on over to show your support by signing the petition and thanks to all of our colleagues for working together in this collaborative effort.

Thanks to our moderator, Darth Dre, for posting this info.
Our own front page phobic site administrator, Ruadh, spotted the Toys R Us exclusive Vintage Collection BMF Millennium Falcon in southern California. But the deal keeps getting worse all the time. The price? $289. Pray they don’t alter it any further.
Again, if you’re in our target demo, these aren’t for you. But if you want to see the newer smaller scaled mid-sized vehicles, click through to sandtroopers.com for your hookup.

Of course, but the time I checked, the Imperial Navy Commander was already out of stock. For my response to having missed the Imperial Navy Commander once again you’ll have to…
Well this is disappointing. Despite an invite (click thumbnail below) that sure seemed to intimate that 2013 Star Wars product would be shown, the only Star Wars related product was the MTT and the Angry Birds cross over items. I think young Ralph Parker summed it up best when he decoded the Little Orphan Annie secret message: son-of-a-b…
Yeah, we’ll be there too. You got a problem with that, tough guy?
Check back tomorrow night for pictures from the display floor at Hasbro’s New York Comic Con preview which promises to show “some” of the 2013 figures. I just hope it goes beyond the stuff that was already shown at Celebration VI.
In a sign that we’re inching closer to Wave 16’s arrival, an Ebay seller from California has some of the figures from the online only wave in stock for $24.99 with free shipping.
Yet another terrific vehicle stuck in the nether regions of the 2012 distribution pipeline, Banthaskull is lucky to have our hands on one of these thanks in large part to the generosity of the great folks at Big Bad Toy Store!

Our friends over at Jedi Temple Archives managed to get Wave 16 in hand and have detailed pictures of the 8 new figures from the wave (best wave of 2012?). Head on over to feast your eyes on some of the best the Vintage Collection has to offer.
If you’re thinking of making the trek to Disney World to build yourself some astromechs, you make want to check DarthChucks inventory report.
If you’ve been following the reports, wave 16 (the online only wave) is getting close and closer, and now it appears on Ebay (from Singapore). If you have to have it NOW, $59.90 + $9.90 shipping will get the Emperor’s Royal Guard to your door. Click here to view the seller’s Vintage Collection offerings. The other ones for sale from this seller are the Republic Trooper ($56.90), Ahsoka Tano ($44.90) and Lumat ($39.90).
Or you could just wait for your Amazon pre-order to come through.
I caccia d’attacco della Repubblica si lanciano in battaglia per dispiegare i soldati! At least that’s what the box says on this internationally packaged version of the freakin’ impossible to find Republic Attack Dropship and Clone Pilot. Supposedly, a repacked and repainted version of this vehicle, with a different figure, will be out in a few months. In the meantime, click the banner or the thumbnails below for some pics of a pretty neat mini-rig.
Check back in a bit for a very short video with incredible production values that demonstrates, in startling detail, the troop deployment feature.
EDIT - Here it is! It’s tremendous!
Our friends at Jedi Temple Archives first alerted us to the awesome Buy One Get One 75% Off Toys R Us coupon that would be appearing in this past Sunday’s paper. If you are not so inclined to purchase the antiquated printed media, you can go to the “weekly ads” section of of the Toys R Us website and print the coupon yourself from the flyer. There is a catch, however.
Apparently the coupon is regional. Depending on your region, there may be no promotion, a Buy One Get One 50% Off promotion or the aforementioned Buy One Get One 75% Off promotion. There is a catch on the catch. Nothing on the coupon itself states that it is regional. Sooooo…if you printed the coupon from the flyer from a supporting region, there’s no reason it should not work in a region that is not running the promotion (right?). If I’ve done this correctly, you will be linked directly to the PDF for the coupon. Click here (or the image below) to being your savings adventure.
