If it is I sure hope it comes with that 3M adhesive display stand.  ::)

If it's true, then Hasbro should just make it an online series... like MotU.

Well, we've clamored for more pack-ins, haven't we?

I just confirmed it with Pawlus, it's not exclusive to EE.

That's weird.  Maybe when they were saying EE Exclusive they just meant those pictures?  Definitely was confusing.

Yeah, I just saw the retraction on their Twitter feed. Good to have clarity on that, this line doesn't need any more obstacles between it and collectors.

According to JTA's Hasbro Q&A, ANH Leia is coming in this line...hopefully long after her previous version has sold through.

I think the bigger news is someone was concerned Leia wouldn't get an ANH figure in the 6" line at some point.

Cool, but relentless.

Was it Target or Walmart? RS says one and YF says the other (with a quick look by me anyway).

Yeah, I believe the 6" find was from Target, the Walmart bit was just some crappy Command set that noone cares about.  ;)

Interesting...when scanning the Big Retail sites for upcoming SW related Black Friday deals, I found a listing for the following:

http://www.walmart.com/ip/Star-Wars-Black-Series-6-Deluxe-Assortment/37079580

At $129.77, I'm wondering if this is that six-pack thingamajig that showed up down in Mexico a few weeks back. Maybe a Black Friday surprise? (ala those Clone Wars 8 packs a few years back)

Although that's not really a good price at all considering they're $20 apiece. So maybe I'm wrong on that...anyone venture a guess?

edit: looks like that is marked down from the original price of $163...which is still over MSRP for 8 figures.

It's all those Hans, Leias, and Greedos, along with the TRU Cantina Exclusives...  :P

Hmmm....6" scaled Starfighter coming for Ep 7? (RS leaked list)

That thing is gonna be massive. I figured we would get a Dewback or Landspeeder before any of the bigger ships.

Or massively underscaled. :P 

Paging Jesse to tell us how big a 6" figure scale X-Wing would need to be in order to be true-to-scale.
