Never Tell Me the Odds – The Black Series

The nice thing about the lull which typically takes place after the busy holiday season, is that it gives collectors time to take pause and review what was released the previous year and time to save for the coming one.  With this week's reveal of carded images of Wave 4 (Wave 1 of 2014) from The Black Series we thought we would once again take note of what this collector focused series has brought us so far.  The following provides first a list of the all 25 figures which have been released or pictured carded so far.  There are 8 addition figures we know of which are coming but have yet to be numbered or carded and so are not included in this list.  If [...]

The Clone Wars Circle is Now Complete!

The circle is now complete! What started on a Friday in October 2008 officially ended this past Friday. After almost 5 1/2 years, Star Wars: The Clone Wars came to a close with the debut of The Lost Missions.  As most fans of the series did, I too sat down and binge watched all 13 episodes late into the night.  Throughout the 4 hour and 45 minute marathon I took notes documenting my thoughts and digestion of each episode.  Here for those thoughts which come proceeded with the obvious "spoiler alert": ~ Please note: the streaming thoughts below were spoiler-free and include opinions, reactions, rhetorical questions and questions which have answers but were unknown to me at the time of viewing ~ S6E1 - The Unknown I need a [...]

Star Wars Rebels Customs – Beginning Now!

If there is one thing we as Star Wars fans have its trouble being patient for what's next.  And we here at From 4-LOM to Zuckuss are no different. In many ways Toy Fair was painful as we learned about all the very cool things that are planned and then for many then told we had to wait two to three seasons for them. We have a feeling next year will be even worse as there is the potential that Episode VII merch will be advertised but then not released for another 11 months to coincide with its scheduled December 18th release date. So to pass the time until this year's big media property Star Wars Rebels is released and we can begin going on toy runs [...]

Let us know what you think about the cast of Star Wars Rebels so far by sharing your thoughts on our Facebook page.

Talking Toy Fair with GoT and Zeb Debuts

I once again joined the hosts of Galaxy of Toys Podcast (A discussion about Star Wars toys vintage to modern) to discuss all the upcoming 2014 action figure goodness revealed at this past weekend's Toy Fair.  Tune it to hear our breakdown of all the new product and lines announced and to hear how Tom really feels about the 12" Hero line's X-Wing. Also debuting today at IGN.com is a new Star Wars Rebels character introduction video.  This time we met Zeb who is a new alien based on OT concept artist Ralph McQuarrie's initial Chewbacca designs.  We have received this figure in "realistic" form back in 2007's The 30th Anniversary line. Excited to see that AT-STs and Ugnaughts are slated to appear in the series [...]
