Hope for Carded Collectors of The Black Series
For many carded collectors the first wave of The Black Series has become quite a challenge. The internet has not been shy about sharing the fact that these figures have been literally falling off the pegs. Pictures of department store self-fixes have ranged from tape and staples to yes even shrink wrap. This is a problem of the bubbles containing the figures not adhering permanently enough to survive a few days of manhandling on the pegs. Whether it’s the incorrect heat-sealing of this wave or the lack of enough glue which is causing them to not adhere to the black-printed cardback, Hasbro has acknowledged the issue and has assured collectors that Wave 2 will not see more of the same. But where does that leave [...]
NYCC Star Wars Rebels Round-Up
What a breath of fresh air this year's New York Comic Con was for Star Wars fans. Coming just before the end of the Comic Con (aka major announcement) season, NYCC fans were treated to figure reveals, animation information and tons of new fodder for speculation.

With Monday night's debut of the ever so brief teaser for Lucasfilm's newest animated program, Star Wars Rebels, we can only begin to speculate about what's to come. With still close to a year until it comes to Disney XD, there has been very little in the way of information about the show. We have been treated to just a few McQuarrie inspired concept images and the name of the main protagonist's ship, The Ghost. Now as we have a one-track mind here at From 4-LOM to Zuckuss the micro-trailer has left us guessing on which vehicles we will be (hopefully) purchasing in the Fall of 2014. The Ghost, a Millenium Falcon type vehicle, seems to be a no-brainer for a large Christmas vehicle release. But with the [...]
