Wave 1 Screen Scenes...Out Now!!


UPDATE: Yours truly just returned from a toy run where I picked up the Jedi Council Screen Scene at the local Target in Saint Paul, MN. Target is in the middle of their Holiday resets and are starting to put out product. So keep checking those Targets!

A good tip that product is about to hit retail in the US is when overseas auctions start showing up. eBay seller amidala-anakin has several auctions listed for the first two Saga Screen Scenes the Geonosian War Room and the Jedi Council. Keep those eyes peeled!

Where is Wave 13?


The Internet is abuzz with news that Hasbro has canceled all outstanding pre-orders from etailers for the latest Collection 2 Wave. This includes the first releases of Wat Tambor, Padme Wedding, Coleman Trebor and the second release of the Yoda and Padawans and Aayla Secura group of figures.

The word from Hasbro is this is due to SARS in Hong Kong, but didn't they just say at Comic Con it was because of retailers not ordering product? Something is screwy in Rhode Island.

Visit our forums for more discussion.

Wizard World Woes?


Rumor has it that only 100 Gentle Giant Blue Clone Trooper mini busts will be making their way to Wizard World in Chicago in August! Reports, albeit second hand, site mishandling and failure to punch badges to track sales during the "sneak preview" night at the San Diego Comic Con.

Meanwhile, most of us were under the impression that the 1,000 busts were to be distributed equally between the two shows. No official word yet to confirm or deny said rumors. However, WizardWorldStore still makes no mention of the mini bust whatsoever. Stay tuned for updates!
