Hasbro’s Star Wars #HasbroToyPic Finalists

Hasbro has shared their finalist for their Star Wars #HasbroToyPic solicitation earlier this year. If you recall Hasbro requested photos based on The Force Awaken created with Star Wars action figures for use in a photo timeline that will be on display at next week's San Diego Comic-Con. We’re thrilled to announce that Hasbro has chosen their top 24 final images from their Star Wars #HasbroToyPic fan activation program launched earlier this year. To refresh your memory, Hasbro and @sgtbananas teamed up to reach the fan community and have them show off their amazing collections and creativity by recreating scenes from the film using Hasbro’s Star Wars figures and vehicles.

Hasbro’s Fan’s Choice Results – Semifinals

Yesterday, the results of our Hasbro Fan's Choice Poll were tallied and submitted to Hasbro.  The results of our poll will be combined with the 18 or so other site's participating and will be presented on Starwars.com for a final fan vote prior to this month's San Diego Comic-Con. This year's results were very interesting as characters no longer a part of the official Star Wars universe dominated many of the polls.  We were not alone in experiencing Expanded Universe dominance.  Our partner on TOY RUN: The Star Wars Action Figure Cast, JediBusiness.com ended up with 3 of the top 4 nominations going to EU characters. Jeditemplearchives.com's poll had Darth Talon taking the number one spot and over at Yakface.com EU favs Starkiller and Mara Jade earned spots [...]

New Pre-SDCC Reveals

With Hasbro's San Deigo Comic-Con Panel now just a few weeks away, the Nerdist.com obtained an exclusive look of some of the Rebels, OT and The Force Awakens toys that will be available later this fall. All of the releases below feature the new Rogue One packaging which is set to debut at the still unconfirmed #ForceFriday date of September 30th, 2016. Rey (Jakku) Rey receives her fifth action figure version in the 3 3/4" scale and it varies from her previous Jakku releases by having her face exposed while wearing her helmet/head wraps.  It appears that the Build-A-Weapon feature that ran through the entire The Force Awakens line has been abandoned if favor of an EU weapon that fires a projectile.       Hera Syndulla's A-Wing [...]

Hasbro’s Star Wars Fan’s Choice Poll 2016

We are excited to announce that Hasbro's Star Wars Fan's Choice Poll is back and From4-LOMtoZuckuss.com is once again an official participant. Hasbro has done multiple fan's choice polls in the past but after taking a few years off it returned in 2015. Last year, fans from all over were able to cast their vote on the Star Wars character they wanted to be transformed into a Hasbro Black Series 6-inch figure – and it was a huge success, creating TWO new additions to the line (Sabine Wren and Darth Revan). Now the rules are pretty straightforward and much like last year where The Force Awakens characters were off the table for voting so will be characters from this December's film: All characters [...]
