Star Wars Collectible News, Photos, and Reviews

Listen up all our friends across the pond in the UK! Hard to find TVC figures are arriving at Toys R Us and on sale too! JTA reader Stuart has the full story for you! Click through to read his awesome report!

OK. So we now know a new Star Wars animated series is coming!!! This has our brains going into overdrive about how Hasbro will approach this toy line. Since they left us miserably hanging in the dark with The Clone Wars line, we hope that this new toy line based on the TV show is handled much differently. We have some ideas to throw Hasbro's way and we want YOUR INPUT too! Comment away please! Click through for more!

STAR WARS: REBELS

Well, it's official! The Endor AT-AT has FINALLY hit the East Coast. I just recently found it in the Philly area, but we are also getting reports from NY, NJ and CT too. We're actually a few days late posting this, but it's a safe bet that this behemoth is everywhere now. Sadly, it didn't "do it" for me. I may just be so burned out at this point. I will see how I feel next pay day. Click through for some other reports too!

JTA reader earthclanbootstrap let's our readers in on a cool find at Meijers (for those of you lucky enough to have them near you). Click through for his report!

Hopefully you were able to partake (or at the very least read the discussions) in our very "heated" debates about the 3.75" Black Series and Saga Legends lines coming out this Fall. The topic at this point has been rather exhausted, so now it's time to talk about the 6" Black Series line, perhaps the most controversial line of all. Introducing an all-new scale is a very dicey thing. With it comes more risks than anything else. To be fair, it brings collectors more details and articulation, but will it engage the amount of collectors it needs to sustain itself? Will four new figures at a time be enough to maintain interest? Will they expect to sell the same four figures for months on end? (Because that AIN'T gonna work.) Let's look at what's definitely coming and then for fun speculate on what might be coming. (more....)

The Imperial Navy Commander is in stock again at Amazon for a reasonable 13.48, with free shipping on orders over $25. As of this post there's only 2 left... so hurry, this won't last long! Special thanks to JTA reader Austin J. for the head's up!

Is the Black Series line already doomed to fail? There are still no American pre-orders to be had yet and collectors are becoming increasingly anxious about the first couple of case assortments, especially the inaugural wave. In the meantime, let's take a quick look at what is coming to the newly hailed Black Series 3.75" line, the extremely disappointing replacement to The Vintage Collection. Click through for more....

There are still no American pre-orders to be had yet, but let's take a quick look at what is coming to the newly revitalized (and dumbed-down) Saga Legends line. Click through for more....

Hasbro Star Wars figures have shown up at Military PX shops! Click through for more! Special thanks to JTA reader lord_varion for the report!

JTA moderator PaulB writes in to let everyone know that the TVC Endor AT-AT has hit the Ohio area. It's only a matter of time now before it hits the East coast!

With special thanks to JTA reader LesDudis, we are happy to report that the Endor AT-AT is in stock at and available at TRU.com!

I have been quiet for a while now, so I feel it's time to sigh audibly enough for you to hear me again. I don't condone swearing, but my very good friend John McCartney just recently spouted "How many [expletive] The Phantom Menace figures did Hasbro make?" It wasn't meant to be humorous. And he said it expecting me to give him a straight answer, yet I found it difficult not to chuckle because his succinct assessment is really the nuts and bolts of this whole mess. I have to wonder the same exact thing.... (read more)

USA Today fully reveals this year's Hasbro San Diego Comic Con exclusive: 6" Black Series Boba Fett with Han Solo in Carbonite Block!! Click through for the full details!.

The Imperial Navy Commander is in stock at Amazon for $14.98 $12.37, with free shipping on orders over $25. As of this post there's only 3 left... so hurry, this won't last long!

UPDATE: It's down to $12.37 now!!!

JTA reader Chris C. was so haunted by our tale yesterday that he felt compelled to write in with some good news to change the pace of things a bit. Click through for his recent store find!

JTA reader Jeff T. writes in to let us know about a sale price for Class II vehicles at TARGET. Is this a sign that the cheapened format isn't working? (Yes.) Will Hasbro change it back? (No.) Click through to see what you can get for $5 lighter on your wallet now through May 18th.

If this doesn't make you want to move to Sweden for Star Wars collecting reasons, nothing will. While found at multiple Swedish TRUs, it's still unreal that this figure is making repeat appearances even in 2013. Click through for JTA reader Mats J.'s hardly believable store report!

The final wave (Yoda/AOTC) of The Clone Wars figures are starting to creep down in price. Make sure to stay on top of these so you can catch them in the price range you are willing to pay. Quite a few have gone for as low as $12.99, and one pair even went for under $10. If you don't want to mess with picking these up auction-by-auction, this seller has had several auctions for the set of 9 for about $17.50 each after shipping. A little high, but still better than what they have been going for.

It's certainly been all about Darth Malgus lately. So we guess that means it makes sense why but he is STILL arriving at TARGET. We consistently receive reports of that this figure makes repeat appearances at this retail chain. This is doubly good news because this wave also includes the elusive Imperial Navy Commander too! Click through for a few recent reports!

Cherished Swedish reader Mats J. writes in to let our American readers know that the MTT is on sale for $72.99 at TARGET.com! Whether you like the PT or not, this is a fun vehicle and definitely worth this price! On a related note, they're (TARGET) scalping collectors on the Wolfpack Battalion four-pack. (They are selling it for $48.49 at the moment!)

JTA reported first from NY Toy Fair that Hasbro would be releasing a box set of the Build A Droids that were meant to be part of the 2013 Legacy Collection that is now officially cancelled. Nothing further has been announced, but one of the figures, FA-4, has hit eBay which in our opinion means something is definitely in the works! Click through to see this exciting figure! Special thanks to JTA reader Peakob1 for alerting us to this auction.

We may just see more and more of this kind of stuff as the Star Wars line wanders aimlessly and ultimately goes to pot, (sorry if that's harsh, but we're a little jaded at the moment), but click through to see what JTA reader Chris H. found locally!
