Sand People • Star Wars • 1978

Tonight we are updating our Visual Guides from Wave 5 of the red-carded The Power of the Force line. Click each thumbnail below to check out our updated Visual Guides for these figures. This wave gave us some interesting figures, including a Tusken Raider who couldn’t hold his gaderfii stick, and one of the most interesting versions of R5-D4 ever made. Enjoy our look back at The Power of the Force [Red] wave 5! Don’t forget to also check out our full reviews for each of these figures right here!

It’s now time to check out the Sand People figure. But why was his name plural?

Walmart online has now “bundled” some of The Black Series [Phase III] 3.75″ figures for a special price. Still, some of you might still be able to find these for $4.00 each at your local brick and mortar location. Special thanks to JTA reader Mark for the alert.

If you’ve been waiting on purchasing The Black Series [Phase III] Tusken Raider figure, you may want to hop on that soon. Hasbro has discontinued production on this figure, and the solid case packs have been canceled! Readers of ours are also receiving cancellation notices on their pre-orders.

The Walmart exclusive Tusken Raider is IN STOCK for only $7.99 if you’re interested in army building him. Special thanks to JTA reader John M. for the alert!

They’ve been hitting for a couple of weeks now, but we just never received the proof. Finally, after a long waiting period, the Prototype Boba Fett wave of The Black Series [Phase III] 3.75″ line is finally hitting Walmart brick and mortar. Special thanks to JTA reader Aric B. for the report.

JTA reader Richard P. sends us a cool store report from Fred Meyer in Lacey Washington. Unbelievably they’re getting in kicker displays full of The Black Series [Phase III] Emperor’s Royal Guard wave which also includes Lando Calrissian, Tusken Raider and the revised K-2SO (among others). To date this case assortment has barely made an appearance at retail, so maybe they’re finally beginning to hit now.

As of this post, all of The Black Series [Phase III] 3.75″ super-articulated are back in stock. If you’re still missing them, now is the chance to grab Tusken Raider, Ponda Baba, Boba Fett (Prototype Armor) and Sandtrooper. Thanks to all who wrote in to share, especially legofan1227.

Hurry! If you need TBS 3.75″ Protype Boba Fett, Sandtrooper, and Tusken Raider you can grab them now! Ponda Baba was in stock, so he may be popping in and out. Keep checking back!

UPDATE: All except Tusken sold out as of 8:15 pm. Keep checking back, you know how this goes.

In case you need any of them, waves 8, 9 and 11 of The Black Series [Phase III] 6″ line are ALL hot off of the truck at Entertainment Earth!

I asked Matthew H. from Star Wars Black Series 6″ Collectors Facebook page if I could share these images here at JTA. While it’s obviously just a mistake, it’s painful nonetheless because of the rarity these things show up in stock for normal MSRP. Look what he received in place of the two figures he should have received instead. That’s got to be a punch to the gut!

They’re back in stock as of this posting time.

UPDATE: Only Tusken Raider Left. 

I’ve been seeing them come in and out every few minutes. I know Qui-Gon and Lando are there now, but keep checking.

Get them while you can. Currently listed at $21.99, but probably not for long.

The Black Series [Phase III] 3.75″ super-articulated figures are toggling in and out of stock again. You can stalk Tusken Raider, Ponda Baba, Boba Fett (Prototype Armor) and Sandtrooper to see if you’re lucky enough to grab any of them. As a reminder, you can see all of these figures now currently archived in our Research Droids Reviews.

How did all of you make out pre-ordering/ordering wave 11 the last couple of days? There was a LOT of doubt from many who didn’t believe these would be avaialble in solid case packs like we confidently confirmed. But just like we advised, all figures were available in this format. I hope you all got what you wanted! This wave will hopefully get slaughtered on the aftermarket now. There have been plenty produced, so please don’t pay more than MSRP for these four figures (Qui-Gon Jinn, Imperial Royal Guard, Lando Calrissian and Tusken Raider).

Pre-order (Royal Guard, Lando, Tusken Raider and Qui-Gon) wave 11 on Amazon RIGHT NOW! Special thanks to Jeff D. and darthvaderdisco for the quick alerts!

UPDATE: It seems to be a similar situation to yesterday, frequently coming in and out of stock. I suggest enabling 1-click and just keep refreshing.
