Bump... Seems like the Curto/Burns collector podcast maybe is lockign down where the head variant AT-ST Pilot we saw is going to turn up... Vintage 2-packs of AT-ST Drivers and Ewok Hijackers... Perfect complements to the ROTJ AT-ST.
We've seen one of the AT-ST Pilots and it's a new head, 100%. Haven't seen the other, but I'm betting it's new too.
The harnesses are a new color too, not sure on new helmets. Hopefully.
-
But using the same body from the Attack on Hoth set?
-
Ewok Scouts and the Endor AT-ST Crew Sets (http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=400816293309646&set=a.154660191258592.33010.148167331907878&type=1&theater)
-
Down for at least two of the AT-ST sets and one Ewok set... then after the TRU Ewok pack, I think I've got all the Ewoks I need
-
Oochee got ret-conned?
-
awesome!!!! and Diddly, we can't be done with Ewoks until we get all of them from the TV movies!
-
I hope these are exclusive to Wal-Mart.
-
I'm definitely down for both sets, plus a bunch of multiples of those AT-ST drivers. Looks like Hasbro added holsters, which is great.
-
So far, so good. Of course, it would be nice to know where they will be and how much they will charge us for them. I see they have the "special action figure set" on the side - hopefully that doesn't mean they are headed to that assortment at Target because $25 for two ewoks will sting. :-X
-
Great sets... what's the price though?
Curious to see the headsculpts too, as by all accounts they're "accurate" to the two specific guys that played those AT-ST Drivers. ;) I couldn't tell by our loose photo how closely they resemble them unfortunately.
Hoping the price is decent so I could nab an extra AT-ST Pilot set without feeling like I just had a prostate exam. The Ewoks will definitely sting if they're more than $20. Hell, $20 will sting a lot too.
-

Yeah, sure, Hasbro can add holsters to everyone...except vintage Rebel Fleet Trooper. (Cheap shot of the day.)
-
I'm always mind-boggled at all the figures that have them and the RFT didn't... Every RFT had them it seemed. Hell, even were holding them down while running. But not the figure.
Snaggletooth even gets a gangsta waistband holster. Come on man!
-
Obviously they left off the holdster off so you would have an excuse to buy more once they add it on. Duh. Just like this AT-ST driver got a slight upgrade (new headsculpt, new holster), so will the eventual RFT repack. ;)
-
You know, I can't tell if you're busting balls or serious because I can laugh at the idea of it, and see it happen, all at the same time.
-
Oochee got ret-conned?
Just read this post from Matt Booker on FB: "WUNKA is the official name of the Ewok Glider pilot as played by Felix Silla - as revealed on The ForceCast a while ago after a Jimmy Mac McInerney investigative report mate" dunno who he is but is sounds like he knows what he is talking about here
-
These look good, but for god's sake, why didn't they make 1 ewok, 1 driver in each set? That way, a parent might actually buy the toy. Two of the same At-ST drivers in one box? That's just foolish. Again, I hang my head and wander what the hell Hasbro is thinking.

I heard these sets will be $20 each and the AT-ST figures will each have unique headsculpt with pseudo Marquand and Watts likenesses.
-
Cool on the price, but I'd say the likenesses are very pseudo. :-X
-
Something about this set just screams for me to buy it.
-
Curious why they didn't include one Driver and one Ewok with each set. I guess you can army build whichever you want this way, but The Ewok set will feel more expensive with the smaller figures. I'm surprised they didn't do one of each to entice more even purchasing of the two and get people to potentially buy more.

Kinda feel that way too - maybe they felt that people wouldn't distinguish the AT-ST drivers apart by doing that, but who knows.
-
I don't mind both Ewoks being in the same pack, since it will let me army build the AT-ST guys without getting stuck with extra named teddy bears. I'll probably always view the Ewoks as overpriced when priced the same as normal figures, but at least Hasbro has given the newer ones almost as much articulation (and just as much detail and accessories, if not more) as the standard figures. For all we know, this two-pack might have extra hoods and accessories to make up for the price difference, but if not I still won't complain.
-
Don't get me wrong - I think this is the best option for the consumer. I'd rather have them this way as well. I just think it is a miss on Hasbro's part in getting people to buy more product. I keep forgetting that they have all the money they want and could care less about driving any additional retail sales.
-
Oh, these are awesome! I needed this little push to get back into it.
The TPM figures stinking up the pegs have been getting me down.
-
The more I look at these, the more I love them... I think it's maybe possible Hasbro did the 2-pers rather than splitting the characters up so that fans didn't get mad about it saying they have to army build ewoks they don't want to get multiple AT-ST Pilots maybe? Who knows. I like them this way myself... I'd have been fine with them 1 of each too. I just think the sets seem neat and am happy to get them.
-
The more I look at these, the more I think Wunka is the LFL sanctioned name for "Wompus". The color fur, the color hood, the "rock on stick" weapon - they all match up pretty well.
Wompus:

-
Ding...I thought the same thing when that image popped up...congrats on finally getting Wompus made. Too bad they didn't call him that.
-
Kinda bummed these are coming to K-Mart, since we don't have one nearby at all. They look really nice, but I'll be hoping for some help on these guys.
-
I remember when I was collecting modern in the early days how frustrating the Target exclusives were... Now it's the same thing in reverse where I'm stoked but I know KM isn't everywhere and that blows for other people.
The good news is usually KM exclusives aren't hard to obtain.
-

I'm sure I can help you out with them. I'm sorta glad these sets will hit KMart, since they have been very consistent on exclusives over the last couple of years. Both K-Marts in my area were well-stocked with Jodo Kasts, Captain Locks, and B-Wings, so I'm hoping the trend continues with these sets and the AT-ST.
-
I so knew these would be K-Mart, since they're perfect companions to the AT-ST. Well hopefully someone round here might not mind helping out a Canadian bro out with this, since we haven't had any K-Marts up here for a good long time. Love that Ewok set though.
-
My nearest Kmart is 300 miles away. If only I knew people near one who weren't going to get them all for themselves.
May as well be eBay exclusives (like Tarkin is). I only want 3 of the ATST Driver packs.....
Does Kmart put their exclusives online?
-
Totally bummed that this is Big K. There are none left in my part of the world. :'(
-

They did with the B-Wing.
-
I won't be buying ALL for myself. :P Just most.
-

You need to be nice to me I guess - I have one by home and one by work. ;)

Help me Obi-Jeff, you're my only hope!
-
Yeah gonna need some help with these too. Closest K-Mart is 8 hours away
-
I will gladly help whoever I can, provided I can find enough product. I do have five KMart's within reach.
-
Really digging these sets. A bit bummed about the body of the drivers though. Too tall. It's going to limit how many I buy.

Ooooh, ooooh. This could be my big chance to return on of the 30 favors I owe you!
(but probably not, since there is only one nearby, and it sucks... I'm happy to try though)
-
Odd that there are 2 K-marts, 1 Target and 0 Wal-Marts in Manhattan. But since they are getting these cool sets, I have a good chance of finding them!
-
I know of the K-Mart downtown on 8th street, but where's the other one?
-

It's near the Garden. There's an entrance down in Penn Station.

Ah that's right...I always forget about that one. Thanks!
-
It's remarkable that K-Mart is taking on some exclusives now. And in this case they've taken on three that are based around the common theme of the AT-ST hijacking. Personally, I would have liked to see a ROTJ Chewbacca sculpt packaged with the Ewoks. That would have made it a comprehensive approach, but that's just splitting hairs. I think that both the AT-ST Drivers and Ewoks look pretty awesome.
From the SDCC images it looks like these are still a few months off. The cards in front of the figures said they'll be available in October. But interestingly there was no price on those tags.
-
I would love for them to continue the theme of the battle on Endor...
• Endor Rebel troopers with alternate costumes
• Imperial Officer and Imperial Naval Trooper (those guys were all over Endor)
• Han with removable AT-ST driver helmet & comm and Chewie
-
But interestingly there was no price on those tags.
iirc, I thought there weren't any price tags on any of the exclusives
-
I thought I saw somewhere that the 2-packs and the AT-ST were coming in August, was that the slides?
-
The slide show presentation didn't specify.
-
It's remarkable that K-Mart is taking on some exclusives now.
Agreed, but even more remarkable that Hasbro would even give K-mart an exclusive at this point since there's so few of their stores around anymore. I'm not sure if I should be pissed at the prospect of having a horrible time/drive finding these things, or if I should just be thankful that such a cool themed "wave" of exclusives found an outlet to make it to retail in the first place. Hopefully they'll be as easy/affordable to find as K-mart's recent B-wing was, though I doubt that'll be the case with the two army-building figure sets, which I'm assuming will be far more popular to most people than a rehash of a larger sized vehicle was last year. With all these freakin' Ewoks coming out, I really wish Hasbro would put some kind of Ewok Village out to display them in, though I know that'll never happen. I guess the ol' vintage version is just going to have to get a little fuller this year.
-
I've been told that the AT-ST Drivers may NOT have the same web gear seen at the SDCC preview... This would coincide with an early pic we saw of one of the new drivers.
Not sure yet, but these may not have holsters, and instead will have just the original web harnesses seen on the Attack On Hoth set figure.
-
2-Pack price info (http://www.banthaskull.com/index.php/site/k_mart_2_pack_pricing_learned/)
$14.99 each. Not bad for current prices.
-
No - not bad at all. I was worried they were going to be $19.99 each.
-
$14.99 is a steal for the AT-ST drivers. For the Ewoks, it sounds about right... it's awesome that Kmart apparently hasn't jacked up the prices on these. It's a pleasant surprise.
-
I like the price as well. Very reasonable.
-
Have these been seen in theild yet?
-
Neither the theidl, nor the field. :P
All joking aside though, yeah these are nowhere to be found... yet. ;) I thought I'd read late Sept./Octoberish.
-
I just read at Sir Steves Guide on Facebook that these have been found out at K-Mart stores now. Anyone here dare step foot in a K-Mart and find one yet?
-

I saw that too. I looked through their store reports from the past week and saw no mentions of the AT-ST Driver or Ewok hijackers 2-packs. I think the FB post might have been a misunderstanding, wishful thinking or an attempt to drive up traffic on their site.
Plus, I only found 2 in-hand eBay auctions of either 2-pack. I'm thinking that these might not be due in stores until next month.
-

I strapped on my flak vest and hit one up at lunch because there was a posting over at RS about someone finding the Republic Dropship Class I set there, but of course there was nothing going on at the one near me.
I saw a couple of AT-ST's, but no shelf tag or anything portending any new arrivals otherwise.
-
I'm pretty sure October was their release date listed, IIRC... And if there's no pictures on something like this, then I'm reluctant to believe a random FB post. No slight on SSG from me personally, I just think they'd have gone with it on their front page and asked for pics if it was legitimate.
-
I saw both sets today - mixed in with the Spiderman stuff but on their own peg. Picked up the ewoks.
Oakdale Kmart Jeff.
-
Oh crap... time to start walking into K-Marts again...
-
Nice score! ;D
-
Oakdale Kmart Jeff.
Thanks for the tip, kind sir. ;D
I hustled it over there and luckily pretty much everything was left - picked up 3x Ewoks and 3x ATST Drivers and left the ATST Drivers that paired up with Mike's ewok buy. Must be 4x each in a case... $14.99 each.
Pictures forthcoming after I get my kids in bed. [yellstokids]Bedtime!!![/yellstokids] :P

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that the Empire hands out shaving kits and the Alliance doesn't.
-
man those are some ugly mugs on some ewoks! not that I don't like though - good for variety!
-
Me likey. :D
-
I picked these up as well. I'm surprised about what I miss and/or forget sometimes. I saw the harnesses on the driver two-pack and got all excited. When I opened them and saw the old harnesses, I got disappointed and remembered that the ones pictured got changed.
-
Well i guess i can go hunting before the Jets game today. Just want the ewok set.

Just wanting to point out I called this a long time ago... My friendly neighborhood spyder man let me know and he was spot-on... kind of a bummer they didn't have the cool webbing in the pic.
The funny thing is I think what they do have on in the movie is probably a seatbelt. At least that's what it looks like to me.
I found these at Sears Grand tonight, by the way... So don't rule Sears out as well. They got the AT-ST and now these sets. Same price.
-
Nice to see these are hitting, about the only thing to look for the rest of the year it seems - at least for the most part. We don't have any K-Marts in town, so if anyone would be willing to help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it. Amazing what an ewok-heavy year it has been, but its cool. I was just putting the TRU ewoks away in the display case today, and we've really built up a pretty nice ewok troop here now, particularly if you've got extras with hood swapping, etc.
-
Interesting story about these, sort of... not really...
but yeah, they're not to be out yet, technically. There's no place on what ammounts to KM's version of a plan-o-gram called a POP. As evidenced by them being put out anywhere they can find room (mine were on a temp riser). KM's just a lot sloppier about sticking to that, and so when a case comes in it goes out. Found out tonight these were to go out a little later though.
Anyway, if you run into some resistance to getting them brought out to you from the back (if you're going the SKU route) there's a reason for it. They're even more reluctant than other stores to hit a stock room for someone, trust me.
-
No luck today, ill try next weekend again.
-
ohman
Im wondering of those ATST drivers headw ould fit a RTF peg or Endor or Hoth Rebel peg....Thats some pretty generic looking custom fidder faces
-
I drove 30 minutes across town at lunch to the nicest K-Mart around here and they didn't have any of these out anywhere. Nor did they have any Commander Foxes or Republic Dropships. So compared to all of the other K-Marts I have been reading store reports from this weekend, this one apparently just blows. >:(
-
ohman

They do not... close, but no cigar. :(
-
Thankfully it just took one trip to K-Mart for me to find these.
Well, I didn't actually find them - I had to go out of the store to look up the UPC on my smart phone (no service inside the store). Then I had to ask customer service to look it up, this took about 10 minutes start to finish. Then she told me, "well, we only have 2, and they might be in layaway." I said they JUST came out - I highly doubt that (plus who the heck puts an action figure on layaway?). So I asked if she would page someone to toys, and she did, but it was just the normal guy that works electronics. He then looked it up on his telzon - and said it would be like finding a needle in a haystack with what they had going on in their back room. Well, he came out in under 5 minutes with a sealed case in hand! Win for me!
-
Crazy.
I don't get reception at one of mine either by the way... old buildings... that's kind of interesting.
-
Thanks Jesse
but damn
I am dissapoint
-
Yeah, me too... I was really anxious when I opened my set to swap heads immediately, so I grabbed a random RFT head off my desk and it doesn't fit. Really disappointed.
The one might fit the other if you hollow it slightly, and vice versa if you fill the ball in a little. But by my standards of just taking a head and popping it on/off a new body and it fitting and not looking like a giraffe neck or a bobble head/wobbly, it doesn't fit. :-\
-
...and thats exactly the intel I was looking for, thanks again.
-
The stupid ball joint on the neck should be standard by now.
-
Like it is for Joes
-
Is anyone finding these guys still?
-
Is anyone finding these guys still?
Still?? I havent found them yet!!!
-
I dont see any Kmarts aymore, so no I am not seeing any more of these. ;)
-
I opened both of these sets last night and I loved them both! So much win! Kudos Hasbro!
The Drivers with their helmets on, to me, look like a perfect translation from the original vintage figure to its modern counterpart.
-
Is anyone finding these guys still?
I haven't seen them once, and I've been checking every K-Mart I can think of.
-
I found them mixed in with the Spiderman stuff so keep your eyes open.
-

Ok great. I haven't found them yet either, but it seemed like they came and went. Glad to hear they probably just haven't really hit yet.
-
A lot of stores aren't putting them out on the floor because there's not a spot for them... Others are just squeezing them in where they can. Some have put out one case and held back another... I have it on good authority though that these were to go out when they had peg space though, not before.
I'm hoping to nab a couple AT-ST Driver sets so I keep checking but it's on my way anyway.
-
Ugh...I wish they'd just put them up on the website. I just want to nab two AT-ST driver packs and one Ewok pack.
-
IIRC they took a while to put the AT-ST up on the website. A while after they'd already been out and shelfwarming.
-
These have been found in Mn yesterday... so maybe it's time for another look?
-
Nothing online.
-
I managed to find them at the one K-Mart in my area last weekend. Nice sets, I wish they had the holsters though.
-
I loved the harnesses... Was surprised to learn what they were originally intended for. I knew back before August they were going with the old ones though so I was prepped for it I guess.
They were a cool idea though and a bummer they're gone.
-

I'll bite...what were they originally intended for?
-
I think it was Yakface said they were for a comic pack that went with that amanamanamabaman pack
-
Nothing online.
And none at our local 8th St. store.
-
Got wind these were found at another local Pitt K-Mart I don't frequent.
There's a big reason these aren't easy to find right now though... Like Target, K-Mart often won't put items out if there isn't a spot on the pegs for them, and they're equally reluctant to pull from the back if there's no space on the floor for them as well... dependant on the store of course, but I've been told that's a big reason they're not readily available.
The stores that put them out probably shouldn't have done so, yet.
-
Nothing online.
And none at our local 8th St. store.
Saw the ewok set at the local penn station store. $16.49 was the price when i scanned it.

Figures I'd hit the wrong store. ;)
-
dude they only had the one. if they had anything more, it was already gone. they picked that store clean
-
I saw people on here were looking for these sets and when I was at Kmart today I grabbed 2 ewok and 2 driver sets to help out whoever needs them here $14.99 plus tax plus shipping
update: all packs are spoken for
-
I found the sets at my semi-local K-Mart. They were on the toy aisle directly below the carded action figures. I picked up my Ewoks and they are awesome!!!

I got my order in of 1 each, plus a Scout! Free shipping at $25.

Boy, those didn't last long.

Boy, those didn't last long.

Looks like the Ewok set is still available.
-
Damn, i missed out on the ewok set. :-\
-
Would love to trade Wunka & Widdle (loose) for TSC Chief Chirpa and TLC Leektar (loose)......
-
The AT-ST is sold out now too. Bummer.
-
Not here! :)
They're everywhere, haha. Some stores never sold one it seems, others sold through and got 2nd full shipments... Lots of AT-ST's here in the stores yet. I suspect we'll see more of the 2-packs. Patience.
-

I hope so. I was referring to online stock, since the closest Kmart to me is probably a solid two hours round trip. Man do I hate exclusives.
-
The AT-ST was available for a while on kmart.com, but I'm sure it'll be back. As for those 2-packs, I can't wait to get a couple more drivers and be done with this madness!
-
Got my Pilots and Ewoks (along with the AT_ST)... man, did they **** that packaging up. Get a box that fits the Walker, but not long enough that the 2 packs fit comfortably in. Just angle them and bend the hook part. I'm an opener, but I want to my stuff to look nice when I buy it.
-
I'm now seeing shelftags for these at K-mart, and also seeing them get stocked. I was in touch with a friend who told me to start checking this week and it seems to be spreading as several K-Marts I hit had tags out and had put out at least a case worth. Even stores I'd already found them at in the wrong location had put out fresh cases.
-
The hunt goes on.
-
I need one of each, if anyone happens to buy any extras. :)
-
Keep eyes out for both sets Diddly.
I'm betting these hit online, soon... When they do, look up a coupon code because K-Mart often has coupons for general merchandise purchases too, especially online.
-
Welp, stopped by a local Sears Grand this morning after work (which is usually good for nothing toy-related except getting exercise) and they actually had these. Snagged one of each set, good to have these off the list since there are no K-Marts here. So check your Sears Grands if you have them in your area.
-
Sears Grand was the first place I found these, actually, as I had to ask for them at K-Mart. Sears Grand was the first place I saw them on a shelf though,a nd they had a shelf tag immediately.
Didn't seem like anyone took my advice to look for them there though. :) I promoted it on the front page but I never heard another report till now that Sears Grand had them in.
Still not sure on a regular Sears, as I tend to not go into those since none are nearby.
-
Yeah I went in there a few years ago to look for some sort of kitchen appliance, and it's really cavernous... they never have any toys so I write them off even though they're next to a TRU and a Target. Decided to stop in on a whim today and there they were. Also got signed up with their rewards program somehow so I guess I'll have to go in there more often. They did have a decent looking clothes section though.
-
Sears Grands are actually awesome in a way. They're not as good on toys as other stores, but for clothes they're about as nice as Target if not a little nicer... Tools, besides Snap-On you really can't beat Craftsman, so there's that. They generally get what K-Mart does though, so I like them for that but they've had a bit less in terms of selection than my K-Mart stores have had the last couple years.
They were oddly the only store that had their 2-packs out fast though. K-Mart sat on them for no real good reason I can see.
-
Kmart is probably trying to release these as close to the holiday shopping season as possible.
-
I saw a full case of these (4 of each set) with price tags on the shelf at a local K-Mart. This store didn't stock them last month when they first came out, so I am inclined to think that they are beginning to hit hard now. I also noticed that the AT-STs have begun piling up, but that might be for a different thread...
-
Saw four sets of drivers and only one ewok set. I grabbed the ewok set. ATST looks interesting but it will sit.
-
Wow that's weird Paul. Saw the exact opposite here where the AT-ST Pilots are usually gone and Ewoks were around. Now I don't see the Ewoks I left either... all stores I visit are sold out. :-\
-
I went to a couple Kmarts and didn't see a trace of these. Bummer!
-
I hit K-Mart today and found 4 of each. Got the AT-ST driver/gunner.
-
These have sold through here too, but I have hope more will come in.
BTW this is why they were held back... The sale.
I was talking to a friend and she told me they didn't know at the time there was a sale coming but the boxes didn't have shelf space allotted till right before the sale, and so stores technically were NOT to put them out. Now they're gone and the sale's here... Oh well.
I hope for more to show up... Especially the AT-ST Pilots. I'd definitely buy more of them.
-
Opened mine. I missed the first release of the AT-ST driver. (In fact haven't bought an AT-ST driver since POTF2)
Shouldn't they have imperial emblems on both shoulders? At least one of them in the movie did.
A bit tall, IIRC I knew that already, which is a bit irritating, mainly because they make Stormtroopers look smaller.
And in a perfect world, they'd have come with two helmets each, goggles down and goggles up, like vintage carded Naboo pilot. And easily removable harnesses.
-
Yes, yes, and yes.
I like him but the height bugs me. Not as much as a droid would, but annoying. The Scanner Tech was a perfect base... why the resculpt? I'll never know.
-
Well now there's a flooded subway tunnel in between me and the only two Kmarts in my area (though I'm thankful that this is the only problem I'm facing from the hurricane). I really hope these become available online.
-
You can risk it. Brave those cold subterranean flood waters to save $2!
Or not. ;)
-
If it weren't for the C.H.U.D. I might consider it.
-
Hah... C.H.U.D.
-
If it weren't for the C.H.U.D. I might consider it.
I thought that was all part of living in New York.
-
More of these have showed up in my area. A full case at one store I knew was cleaned out of both cases they'd gotten in initially, so I know more are coming now.
Stop at K-Mart.
I'd post on our front page, but we're still ironing that out. :-* Soon!
-
Finally found these Sunday. And they were still on sale, which was an even better deal.
-
Mine are still in my car...need to bring them in one of these days.
