Summer Ends & Fall Collecting Begins

Those who have been following us on our socials know that this past summer has been filled with lots of travel and time spent away from the computer. But now that school is back in session and the weather is starting to turn, we are back in action and have loads of updates coming your way. We had a really fantastic summer that included lots of Star Wars and collecting adventures. Here is a quick rundown of what Jake got up the last few months: Washington State Summer Con, at the premier convention which is more heavily Star Wars-themed then any other in the region, Jake interviewed Bo-Katan, The Armorer, Boba Fett, Boba Fett, Darth Maul and Thrawn's father!

In celebration of Pride Month 2021 and the company’s Pride collection, The Walt Disney Company is giving funds as part of our ongoing commitment to organizations around the world that support LGBTQ+ communities.

Disney’s Droid Factory Guide Updates

The lastest Disney Droid Factory Build-a-Droid, BB-BOO20, has now been added to our visual guide.  The figure is a simple repaint of their BB-8 buck which entered the line in June of 2017. This figure joins the previous 4 Halloween-themed droids by being released in August. With only one park currently open in the US, obtaining this figure has become more difficult with many folks resorting to the inflated prices on eBay. No word yet if this will become available on  ShowDisney.com or app. At the time of print, only The Rise of Skywalker set and the Sandcrawler playset are currently on the app. We'd highly recommend the Sandcrawler especially for fans of The Mandalorian. But speaking of available sets, if you have a Disney [...]

2020’s Disney Disney Droid Factory Droid

Following a similar timeline of the past few years, since Disney started producing Holiday-themed Astromech droids in their park exclusive Droid Factory line, August has been the release month for their Halloween-themed droid. This year, BB-BOO20 (BB for the type of droid, BOO for Halloween and 20 for the year) joins the ever-growing list of buid-a-droids Disney has produced over the years. While we have yet to see the back of the card which typically gives a sentence or so of background about each droid, this one appears to be on Pasaana by the look of the front of the card. For a look at each and every Disney Droid Factory Build-a-Droid released to date, make sure to check out our visual guide here! [...]
