Star Wars Day At The Disney Store

Stopped by my local Texas Disney Store to check out their Star Wars Day Merchandise Display. They were only offering 4 new items which was The Elite Series Droid Gift pack, Stormtrooper Hemet with R2 Deco, T-Shirts, and a BB-8 Pin.

The Elite Series Droid Gift Pack is a straight up repack which was kind of a bummer, but don't worry you will like the Elite Series 2-Pack that is coming for the 40th Anniversary (Sorry Disney asked us not to release photos or character specifics yet).

If you are having trouble finding The Black Series 40th Anniversary Legacy Pack at your local stores and are wary about ordering it online because your worried about it getting crushed you may want to try Amazon. The Black Series 40th Anniversary Legacy Packs that Amazon have are already pre-packed in a White Mailer Box from Hasbro, and if you select "This is a gift" option (Which is free) when purchasing this item, they will also put the white Hasbro Mailer Box into a Amazon shipping box, giving it more protection.

These are still in stock at Amazon for $39.99 each. Just make sure you select the ones being sold and shipped by Amazon and not a 3rd party seller.

For those into packaging variants, Hasbro has changed the weapons layout in the bubble of the Rogue One 3.75" Shoretrooper figure.

Variations:
• 1st version: Weapons packed in top right corner of bubble.
• 2nd version: Weapons packed on both left and right side of bubble.

Took a quick side by side photo of both versions, if you want to check it out above.

I constantly get asked Where Is The Rogue One 3.75" Galen Erso Wave? Per Hasbro this wave has already shipped out to Retailers (though they wont state who) but they mentioned to keep checking online retailers such as Amazon. Also this wave is the last wave of the Rogue One Toy Line, so production of this wave has been reduced as well.

Up to this moment I have not seen any preorders for this wave and I have only seen this assortment in stock and sold by one retailer so far and that was CMD Store which sells both out of Canada and the US. Right now they are offering a set of 6 figures for $59.99 plus shipping. I personally did buy a case from this company and it arrived mint.

Now the bottom line is I am not sure how hard this wave will be to obtain and I am not telling you to run over to CMD Store and spend $60 on it, but it is a a option if you are worried on missing this wave. Who really knows, this wave may show up at discount Retailers like Five Below and etc after all.

Update: They are sold out as of now.

Readers have been sending in reports that they have received their orders for the Celebration Exclusive TBS 6" 40th Anniversary Luke Skywalker: X-Wing Pilot figures from HasbroToyShop this week. I just received mine today as well and HasbroToyShop shipped it in a somewhat oversized box with some paper padding inside.

Most people are reporting that they have received them in good condition, but there are some that have gotten figures with bent cards and smashed bubbles unfortunately.

For those into variations there is one already on The Black Series 40th Anniversary Legacy Pack. Hasbro has changed the paint color of Vader's Helmet Lens.

Variations:
• 1st Version (DS 70121) Red Color Lens
• 2nd Version (DS 70681) Smoke Color Lens

I have only seen the earlier version (red color lens) at Target and the smoke colored lens version at Walmart, GameStop, and Best Buy.

If your still trying to track down The Black Series 6" 40th Anniversary Figures be sure to check your local Walgreens. My local Texas stores have been getting in a case per store this week, but just like everywhere else, people are grabbing all the R2 and Han Solo figures and leaving the rest.

The Walgreens item number is 974785 (if you would like to call your local store and check stock) for this assortment with a price of $19.99 Happy Hunting!
