Thanks everyone.  Good to know they have made it out west.  However That’s sort of what I’ve seen with my local stores in central CA, not a lot of them were carrying the vintage items...  The hunt continues!

Has anyone spotted this on the west coast (in California) recently?  I checked a few Walmart’s in my area last weekend but came up empty handed (though I did find some other items I was looking for).  I’m just curious and always wary about Walmart and their irregular distribution antics...

Got my figures from EE yesterday and my sentiments echo Matt’s above...  Very nice to have my tank with a proper crew 8)

My order for the tank drivers, Solo and Enfy's Nest has shipped.  Arriving Thursday!

Same here, though mine are coming Friday.  I’m really glad EE offered the single figures (as opposed to the whole case) since it sure beats driving to a bunch of Walmarts and Targets to only find nothing...  It saved money and my sanity :P

Finally watched all of Season 4 on DVD over the past couple days.  Overall it was good, but I wasn’t sure what to make of the whole Ashoka alive thing at the end like others noted above.  Plus the whole Ezra and Thrawn gonoff with the hyper space whales thing.  And I’m guessing Hera’s kid was by her and Kanan (or a leprechaun :P ).  Still, I liked the tie-ins with Rogue One and was glad Rebels at least got an ending!

Well obviously Jesse didn’t get all the tankers or I got my order in on time as I’ve not gotten an EE rejection email  ;)

I ordered 3 of the tankers along with a Han and Enfys Nest.  I’m glad EE is taking orders for single figures as I don’t need a whole case and don’t have the time to hit up every retail store!  Part of me thinks these could wind up being peg warmers once they hit retail, however...  I’ve seen a lot of the first wave sitting around at Target mostly, even army builders like the FO Stormtroopers.

Hey Hasbro! / Re: Clone Wars Most Wanted

I don’t have a huge list, but I would like to see CW-era Obi Wan and Anakin figures with the added armor, etc. in the 6” scale.  Probably a younger Ashoka as well since the current 6” version is the older one from Rebels.  I missed out on getting the 6” ROTS Anakin and it’s all but unaffordable these days... 

As for ships, I would love for Hasbro to do the Z-95 that was featured in some of the later CW episodes in the 3.75” scale.

I’m excited to hear this announcement - I always enjoyed Clone award far more than Rebels and it was a shame it got canceled when it did - but I’m not too wild about it being on Disney’s new streaming service as opposed to a more accessible platform like network or cable TV.

I got this figure last week from GameStop and totally agree with the above comments - it is another great figure!  Commander Wolf and Captain Rex are a couple of my favorites and it’s neat seeing the characters with realistic head sculpts.

I have that big wing TIE that was released 8-9 years ago at Target - which is great save for the pink-tinted cockpit glass...  I’m hoping this will have the super-detailed TIE cockpit with the controls and removable seat.  It will be great to finally get a decent version of one of the most ubiquitous ships in the SW universe, just stinks that it’s at Walmart.

Got my Enfys Nest Swoop Bike today, ordered from Entertainment Earth.  It’s a nice edition to the Black series 6” vehicle line and is very detailed!  The Enfys Nest figure is quite nice as well with detailed chest plate, rubber and cloth goods.  Unfortunately the helmet is not removable...  Perhaps we’ll get another “Savareen” version with a removable hat at some point?  The axe/pike is a bit plain as well.  The bike comes in two main sections.  The forward booms are a bit delicate, but Hasbro smartly includes a little removable plastic piece to help them keep shape in the box. The figure can be seated realistically on the bike as well...  The Swoop Bike is pretty large as well - much larger than the Imperial Speeder Bike and Rey’s Speeder, for example.  Overall I’m pretty happy with this model. 

Some pictures are included below.  Enjoy  :)

Glad they’re doing individual orders on the desirable figures!

I just found another cool little Easter egg detail inside the Imperial Assault Tank...

Hasbro detailed the coffee mug in the commander’s station  8)





The coffee mug was apparently something the filmmakers put in the actual movie prop as an inside joke (sort of like the Playboy Magazine centerfold and Star Wars movie posters in the cockpit of the Rebel Blockade Runner from ANH).  The mug is also detailed in the cross-section drawing of the TX-225 Occupier in the Rogue One Ultimate Visual guide book.  I think it’s awesome that Hasbro includes it in their model/toy :)
