Since the late 70’s, the Star Wars toys Kenner, and then Hasbro, made were for kids. The current line-up of Hasbro toys, however, are adult collectibles. Perhaps no recent figure makes that more apparent than the Deluxe Boba Fett (Tatooine) release. At $28, it is unlikely that the average parent would make that purchase for a child or even teenage collector. Expensive action figures are not unprecedented, nor are adult collectible 1/18 scale lines. How does Hasbro measure up? Can they compete in this market, and how does this gateway figure compare to other similarly expensive lines? More…

Good day to you, toy runners. Today I bring you a report from a local toy convention that was held in Glendale, AZ. There were plenty of toys from just about every line you can think of, vintage and modern. I ended up not buying any new Star Wars figures though! I’m at a point in my collection where I am very satisfied with what I have from past releases. I buy what grabs my attention now. See anything here that grabs yours?

How do you do, Toy Runners? Thank you again for tuning in to another Toy Run Tuesday. Preorders from the latest wave continute to arrive. I also updated one of my dioramas with a scale replica arcade carpet. Sometimes it’s good to take a turn with another collection to avoid fatigue, but that doesn’t help the wallet. Please share your new collectibles or just come to comment by clicking here.

Yesterday at the Hasbro panel at SWC, they announced a few pipeline figures for The Vintage Collection. All three were solid reveals that we’ve been waiting for a while to have in the line. Hunter from the Bad Batch has already been made in The Black Series, and while most fans were excited for the figure, it’s eventual repaint into Delta Squad was not well received due to the stylized sculpt. We need to make sure that the upcoming TVC version doesn’t make this same mistake…

Hello Toy Runners! I’m pleased as punch to finally have some new toys to talk about. The most recent TVC Wave is showing up in the mail and in some stores. I’m still awaiting several figures from that wave, but I did get my Death Watch mandalorians. Have you gotten your figures yet? Please share in the comments what you’ve found and how you have integrated them in your displays!

Good morning Toy Runners! We’re back today with a couple updates. Some solid army building figures were recently revealed, and I’ve seen some posts of people starting to receive the Death Watch mandos in the mail. I recently received a Mandalorian throne and finished a custom figure from another Lucasfilm franchise. Click here to take a look.

Hello Toy Runners! We are back today with the 131st TRT. I am still waiting on my preorder of the TVC Lobot figure from Hasbropulse (big surprise). Thankfully, a fellow collector on Facebook had one for a very reasonable price loose, and I snagged it quickly. Since the recent Gennedy Clone Wars figures have all arrived, things seem pretty quiet. What do you do during collecting lulls? Click here to add your thoughts.

We’re thrilled to again participate in @SWTVC’s March Madness event! In January our readers, along with 400 other collectors submitted their top 25 most wanted TVC figures. Thanks to the help of the folks running SWTVC, we now have a compiled bracket with the top 64 figures from those 400 lists. They have been pitted head to head to see who the most wanted action figure is! You can find a hi-res blank bracket here. Once completed, share your bracket in our comments so that @SWTVC can compile the number one winners from across the board!

Hello fellow runners! I hope you had a productive week for your collections! I recently received my sets of the Bad Batch 4-pack. It’s a cool set, but certainly not worth $67. I want to see what you received this week though! Please click here to share your new collectibles!

I already have a list of figures I want from the Book of Boba fett. If that list isn’t filled by Hasbro and quickly, I will start making customs on my own. I’ve already begun the process with a custom Boba Fett (Tusken Prisoner) figure. Take a look after the jump! Please leave a comment about your BOBF wishlist and your week in Star Wars.

Hello there! Hopefully you’ve had a fine couple weeks with the holidays. I didn’t get a single Star Wars item for Christmas other than what I bought for myself. That’s a good thing as I buy predominantly Star Wars things for myself. Please click here share with us your end-of-year toy hauls!

Wow! I am a big fan of clones and video game characters, so these are going to be impossible for me to pass up! No word on the exclusivity of these figures, but if previous experience tell us anything, the TVC figures will be Fan Channel, and the TBS Umbra Operative will be only at Gamestop.
Look for these to go up for pre-order tomorrow at 1 PM Eastern!

Hello fellow Toy Runners! It’s that time of the week again. This last week I was doing some not-spring cleaning. I decided I’d pull out all my TVC cards. They went to the highest bidder, but I gotta say, seeing them all together like this brings warm feelings to my heart. Take a look…

Just after last week’s post went live I was able to find the whole Emperor TVC wave at a local Target! I was so happy to find them in store. IG-11 is the stand-out figure from the wave in my opinion (the others are great too). I wanted to share a couple thoughts on the figure, so click here to take a look. Be sure to leave your weekly finds in the comments as well!

This week I got some new toys! One in particular is a modern update to a vintage Star Wars collectible I’ve wanted for a long time. I’m really happy I got this as it showed up on Hasbro’s eBay store only for a short time, and I wasn’t able to secure the vintage counterpart before the value shot up recently. Check it out by clicking here!
