Wal*Mart Spy Report: Super Articulated Exclusives

We have received a report from our spy "Long Snoot" from inside the Wal*Mart on Tatooine. According to Long Snoot the following 10 figures are listed in the Wal*Mart computer for a retail price of $12.93: E7 Kylo E7 Firs E6 Vader E4 Chewie E4 Han E4 Luke E4 Prin E7 Poe E7 Finn E7 Rey Now the these figures are currently on order in denominations of 12 and no stores in the region have them on hand. So this means that it is most likely that they will not be available on Force Friday but should be appearing shortly after. At this price point these figures are most likely a part of the super articulated Black Series line. We have already seen images of the canceled Ceremonial [...]

2014 the Year of 58

As 2014 comes to a close Hasbro will be shutting the books on their 19th year of producing Star Wars action figures.  It goes without saying that 2014, although better than 2013, was not a banner year for the toy producer’s Star Wars line. Distribution problems still existed, product offerings were very light, advertisement was minimal and public “collector” opinion about their 5 points of articulation didn’t improve. But despite these criticisms, Hasbro continued a long tradition of giving children, fans and collectors some great Star Wars toys to play with and collect! Now to hear which figure and vehicle we specially liked (and disliked) the best from 2014, you’ll need to make sure to listen to Episode 37 of Galaxy of Toys Podcast. While [...]
