Sideshow Collectibles has just revealed their newest lifesize bust, everyone’s favorite Mon Cal - Admiral Ackbar! Stay tuned, this will probably be up for pre-order in next week’s newsletter. Join the discussion!

The super-secrecy that Sideshow maintains always leaves the collector community surprised at each new announcement. This one has to be a giant shocker, being that there is already a a Biker Scout Premium Format with Speederbike. While it surely stands to be a great companion piece to the already released Biker Scout, doubling up in a line that only yields a meager four releases a year is going to make a lot of collectors very….unsettled to say the least. If you are interested in purchasing this latest addition, click our banner next week around 9 pm Eastern.

Original Banthaskull forum member Hrvat just visited his mom and unearthed his old lunchbox from his childhood days, and provided us with some awesome pics of his find.  Not only was it in great shape, but some original Star Wars stickers were still inside!  So this got us wondering - have you recently unearthed any beloved childhood items that you had once thought were gone forever?

So this morning while I was on a my way to work, I swung through the toy section at Wal-Mart, and was greeted by the three exclusive comic packs.  Of course, I didn’t pick up any of them cause none of really scream MUST have to me.

Discuss your latest finds here.

Finally, a figure that represents the smooth, stylish ways of Banthaskull. This 1/6 figure of Lando in his Bespin attire will be up for PPO on Friday, Feb. 20th at 1 pm eastern. There are just 750 exclusives available, exclusive item is a communicator. Jump into the discussion thread for updates as they come along.

The news is coming in via garbled bantha transmissions, so you’ll have to bear with me on the speculation part of this report.

The latest bit of information says that there will be 5 2-packs in the Wal Mart Droid Factory last year, but the big news is this direct quote:

“with big darktrooper phase 2”

I’m speculating that this means that the BAD for the Droid Factory is a Phase 2 Darktrooper.

Upcoming BADs from the basic figure line:  U-3PO, HK-47 and L8L9 from the Genny cartoon.

There will be a battle pack with 2 clone pilots and 2 gunship turrets.

Concept figures throughout the year.

5 Target 2-packs to replace Order 66 will be focused on the Geonosis arena and will include a smiling Fisto.

Turbo Tank is the only big vehicle this year.  So swears Hasbro, but we’ve heard that before.

The following are on display.  Pics to follow:

• Turbo Tank
• Lumiya & Luke
• Sigel & Krayt
• Kyle & Vong
• ESB Wave
• AOTC Wave
• Return of the Mini-Rigs!
• Clone Wars Windu
• Shadow ARC-170
