Add a commentNew Disney's Exclusive TOYBOX Vader And Luke Figures Release Date Info
Just received info on some new Disney Exclusive Star Wars Series TOYBOX figures coming our way soon. Our very reliable source stated that Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker will have a release date of 2/26/18 (subject to change).
Also on the way are Princess Leia and Boba Fett as well, but my source couldn't find a exact release date for those 2. There are no official Press Photos of these figures at the moment, but there is a Disney flyer floating around the net that did show these 4 new Star Wars figures along with new Pixar and Marvel figures.

Add a commentTBS 6-Inch Wave 14 (Jaina Wave) Hitting Target
Stopped by my local Texas Target this morning and found the remnants of The Black Series 6-Inch Wave 14 on the pegs. While I was on vacation readers also sent in reports of finding this wave at their East and West Coast Target Stores as well.
This wave consists of:
• Jaina Solo
• Snoke
• Rose
• Luke Skywalker (Jedi Master)
• Rey (Jedi Training) with updated scar
• Maz
• Kylo Ren
• Elite Praetorian Guard
Also the Toy Department Manager stated that they are resetting the Toy Isles next week, so assume this will happen to all stores across the Country also.
Happy Hunting!
Add a commentTBS 6-Inch 46: Luke Skywalker (Jedi Master) Cloak Variant
I received some emails from our readers asking if I knew anything about a Light and Dark Cloak variant on The Black Series 6-Inch 46: Luke Skywalker (Jedi Master) figure. I was aware that the Luke that was packed in the Convention Exclusive Luke Skywalker (Jedi Master) & Rey (Jedi Training) 2-Pack had a Lighter Cloak then the single boxed figures, but I didn't think any the Lighter Cloaks carried over to the single boxes, but just to make sure I grabbed my early samples that were sent to me a while back and sure enough the Lighter Cloak did make it to the single boxes.
The Lighter Cloaks seem to be packed in 46: Boxes with Date Stamps earlier then 71671. Anyways took a boxed comparison photo (above), The Lighter Cloak is on the left and the Darker on the Right. If you want a larger view of the picture, open the pop-up image in a new window. When I finish photographing this figure, I will includes a loose side-by-side photo of the Cloaks on the figure's page, which will make the variants easier to see.
Variants:
• 1st version - Lighter Cloak.
• 2nd version - Darker Cloak.
The Black Series 6-Inch 56: Jaina Solo (Legends) - HD Photos
The Black Series 6-Inch 56: Jaina Solo (Legends) figure has been added to our HD Photo Gallery tonight. Great looking sculpt by Hasbro with lots of articulation. She includes a Lightsaber Hilt, Removable Blade, Blaster, Removable Helmet, and Removable Chest Box. This figure will be extremely popular with Collectors and Scalpers (unfortunately) alike and maybe hard to find unless you preorder it from a online retailer or buy the entire Wave 14 case. These have not hit local brick and mortar stores in large numbers yet, so you may have a chance to find one that way as well.
Enjoy our large, clear, sharp HD Images that you wont find in other Archives.

Forces Of Destiny Dolls Clearanced At Walmart
Just got back from vacation and stopped by my local Texas Walmart and noticed that they have clearanced out all the Forces of Destiny Dolls. Prices were $9.00 for the basic and $19.00 for the deluxe. So if you had any interest in these now maybe the time to pick them up at a discount.
I still have yet to see any of the newer Forces of Destiny Dolls hit retail i.e. Chewbacca and Leia Platinum Edition.

Add a commentThe Black Series 6-Inch Deluxe Speeder Sets Box Variants Found
My local Walmart store had a clearance End Cap of The Black Series 6-Inch Speeder Sets this morning. The Toy Manager said that these were just found in their back stock room due to it getting emptied out from the Holiday Shopping Season. My local stores only stocked these maybe twice when they were first released last Fall and then they disappeared and I never seen them again at retail.
Anyways for the variant hunters out there, I noticed that the box numbers have changed on these. Not sure what Hasbro changed yet on the boxes (could just be a simple text typo or change) but will take some photos and find out next week after the Holiday. If you know what was changed feel free to post it in the comments.
Box Variants:
TBS 6" Luke with Landspeeder
• 1st release - PN00013381
• 2nd release - PN00017144
TBS 6" Rey with Speeder
• 1st release - PN00013383
• 2nd release - PN00017143
