Star Wars Nostalgia On the Rise

"We're bringing to life the nostalgia that many young parents feel about Star Wars and Kraft, and creating new and exciting ways to experience them together as a family," says Scott Glenn, brand manager for Kraft Macaroni & Cheese. With Star Wars now once again approaching fever pitch as anticipation grows toward the debut of The Force Awakens, it’s become clear that it’s not just the new Star Wars that’s on everyone’s mind. A new appreciation for Star Wars nostalgia and vintage collectibles have become the focus of not just fans but corporate America as well. Companies like Sony have skewed their Star Wars advertising to an older demographic with the inclusion of Star Wars nostalgia. Kraft Macaroni as well has gone as far as [...]

The Force Awakens Trailer

We teared up at, "It's all true...all of it." ESPN's Monday Night Football played host to the debut of the first official full trailer for The Force Awakens. Leading up to the halftime showing many theaters put tickets for the December 18th premiere up for the pre-sale (which not surprisingly broke the internet for the evening). Now back to watching the trailer another 19 hundred and seventy-seven times!

Gold 5’s Report following NYCC

Now that New York Comic Con's Hasbro, panel has come to pass, we have updated our "Gold 5's Report" on upcoming figures. Not only have we included the Seventh Sister Inquisitor from Season 2 of Rebels (which begins this Wednesday) but the newly listed Class II Vehicle Slave 1 with Exclusive Figure found at BigBadToyStore.com. The vehicle is listed as being from Episode V and so it is likely to include the 5POA Boba Fett most recently released in the Armor Up line. Until next time, May the Figures be with you!

The Force Awakens Figure Countdown

Last Saturday we began our countdown of the 75 days left until the premiere of The Force Awakens. We are celebrating this highly anticipated next episode of the Star Wars Saga by opening a different action figure, vehicle and/or accessory every day until December 18th. With each figure opened we offer a brief review and rating to accompany the pictures we post. All reviews are posted first to our social media pages (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram) but will be rounded up here on the site each week as well. Now obviously with more days remaining than unopened figures available from the new figure line, we'll be supplementing from time to time with figures from past lines who have been screaming at us to be released from their plastic [...]

Star Wars Sequels and My Collecting Future

by Mike MacDonald It's three weeks after Force Friday as I write this and for the first time since getting back into collecting in 1995 I'm not sure how I will continue to collect Star Wars action figures. Not IF I will collect, mind you, but how to move forward going into the next phase of the now apparently endless Star Wars saga. My Star Wars collection has grown pretty darn big over the past twenty years. Like so many other Star Wars fans, the release of new action figures back in the 90's was my entry back into the Star Wars universe. I've spent this past 20 years putting together a collection of roughly 700-plus items based on budget and display space.  But most [...]

GI Joe’s Starduster Added to Sister Lines

Sister Lines is a list of Star Wars action figure related toys and accessories that originated from other toys lines or were later used in non-Star Wars lines. Well thanks to our friends at Galaxy of Toys we have another figure to add to our Sister Lines database. In 2009, Hasbro once again double-dipped into their mold library for a GI Joe Convention exclusive. Each year since 1997, the GIJoeCon has been held and as its popularity has grown so has their exclusives. It is currently sponsored by Hasbro's Official GI Joe Collectors' Club and with this sponsorship comes lots of club and convention exclusives. The International JUMP Jet 2-Pack was one of the many convention exclusives offered that year. The set included two Joes (Sgt. Manleh [...]
