(Bantha Skull Hasbro Q&A Week 1)
Several Bantha Skull forum members have spotted the Wal*Mart exclusive packs this week. I managed to pick up all 6 Droid Factory packs as well as the 3 Comic Packs yesterday at a Wal*Mart in New York. The hunt is back on!

Eurobricks.com has some bad ass pictures of the soon to be released Death Star Lego set. This thing is amazing looking. Multiple levels of play area. It encompasses not just ANH, but also ROTJ. It also comes with a scaled down model of Vaders Tie advanced, and 20…yes, TWENTY mini figs, including three different Luke Skywalkers! For all you Lego fanatics out there, this could be the set of the year.
Now only if Hasbro could follow suit and make a nice 3 3/4” Death Star Playset in the same vein…
It was released that only one figure in this photograph is truly in the set, with the other five as simply placeholders. The only figure that no one has a clue who he is, is the bald one with Stormtrooper armor. Banthaskull forum poster Nomadscout speculates that this figure is actually one of the members of a Stormtrooper Squadron in the Legacy comics.
And don’t forget to preorder the set at Entertainment Earth. Follow the link on the left side of our site!
JediDefender.com has another set of new pictures up. This time round it’s the upcoming Homing Spider Droid. Look at the size of that thing! I think Hasbro has some of their sizing issues under wraps.

Newly added to our forums, the Photoguides to characters not produced by Hasbro. Not necessarily meant to represent EVERY single character shown in the movies, but definitely a very good list of many figures still needing some love from Hasbro…and some better left ignored.

Our very own Ruadh poses a great theory on what the hell a “Forward Base Alpha” (as mentioned by Rebelscum) playset might be:
Could it be the base that Yoda is taken to on Geonosis?
