STAR WARS STUDIOFX App Details

Hasbro has passed on to us some additional information about their Hasbro Star Wars StudioFX app which will be compatible with the Rogue One toy line set to be released later this month.  This is in addition to the write up that Mashable has done with their sneak peek with the app.  Interesting to note is that there will be 30-50 unique codes included within the toy line and they will be inserted at random.  Now while the details are still limited to the codes included, the collector in us is curious if they will be universal much like The Force Unleashed video game codes of the past or will each be their own individual code.  If the former, then you can look forward to us posting a [...]

AT-AT Inflation 2016

This past week Amazon.com briefly placed up for pre-order a handful of Rogue One action figure products.  Most notably among them was the Rogue One AT-ACT for $279.99. And while Hasbro has stated there would be no vehicle at the $300 range, it appears there will be one just shy of it.  Now this latest version of an AT vehicle includes brand new, never-before-seen features such as walking-action and smart phone interactivity but does that justify the enormous cost, especially for a child's toy? In order to examine this price jump more thoroughly we have graphed the cost of each four-legged AT (All Terrain) vehicle released since 1981 and adjusted that price for inflation to see what it would cost in 2016.  As seen above, no prior [...]

First Look at Rogue One’s Hasbro U-Wing Starfighter

A big thanks to reader and TOY RUN listener Evan D for sending us information about where to find images of Hasbro's upcoming  3 3/4" U-Wing Starfighter.  This new starfigther will be featured in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story later this year and just made its public debut a few weeks ago.

A magnificent ship to ship [...]
