One-of-a-Kind Black Series Figure

Last night on Jimmy Kimmel's now third annual Star Wars special of Jimmy Kimmel Live, a very special gift was provided to the director and future shepherd of the Star Wars universe, Rian Johnson.  The late-night host provided Johnson with his very own, one-of-a-kind action figure of the director. Hasbro created the figure exclusively for Johnson and used the Target exclusive Black Series Luke Skywalker (Jedi Master) with Ahch-To Island base.

The Last Jedi Trailer & Speculation

During this week's Monday Night Football, the first official trailer finally debuted. Prior to the halftime release, Starwars.com revealed the official poster for the eighth episode of the Saga. What stands out immediately is Luke's position in the montage that is typically reserved for Darth Vader. Speaking of Vader, speculation online has pointed out that the position of the characters and wording on the poster take the form of Darth Vader's helmet. Following the trailer, tickets for the movie were made available from most theater chains. Now as the anticipation begins to  build for the December 15th release, we thought we'd take a look at some of the already iconic images that can be found in the trailer. So without further ado, let the speculation begin! We begin [...]

NYCC 2017 Hasbro Reveals

Now that New York Comic Con is behind us, its time to take a look at what was revealed by Hasbro at the annual mega-convention via Hasbro's round tables and show floor displays. Let's begin with the 3 3/4" Force Link line which we have now learned lacks The Last Jedi due to the timing of the packaging creation and reveal of the title. Two new reveals for the basic single carded line included one familiar figure and "new" character. Maz will be getting her own release and will include her rocketeer looking backpack that will be featured in The Last Jedi. A new character by the name of C'Ai Threnalli (who appears to be similar or related to The Force Awakens' Ello Atsy) features a [...]

With that being said, if you have discovered a phrase or sound not listed below, please let us know via our social pages or email (4LOMKUSS@gmail.com).
