It seems the last few waves of both Legacy and Clone Wars figures have been
scarce on toy shelves these past few months, but in time for Black Friday
new toys are hitting and hitting hard. Be it the new revision of the
Ughnaught, Cad Bane, the A New Hope Wave, or exclusives like Wal-Mart's
Dewback or AT-ST, the time for collectors to shop is now! On the latest
episode of Star Wars Action News, hosts Arnie, Marjorie, and Scott talk
about which stores are most likely to have the figure you're looking for.
Also this week on the podcast is a Hasbro Q&A discussing the sales of the
Clone Turbo Tank, the ending of the Comic Pack line, the
will-they-or-won't-they of the Bespin Guard variant, and the
did-they-or-didn't-they of the Bearded/Beardless Hoth Trooper variant.
With news of great online bargains and a recap of last Friday's Gentle Giant
PGM sale, it's all on this week's Star Wars Action News Podcast!
1) In the upcoming Holocron Heist battle pack is the included Cad Bane
figure any different than the currently shipping carded version?
2) How relevant were the sales of last year's AT-TE to the release of
this
year's Clone Turbo Tank, and do the sales you've seen on the Turbo Tank
indicate we might get a similarly large vehicle next year? (As the CTT
was
shown at Toy Fair in February it had to have been started quite a bit
before
then I'd assume).
3) With the results of the Fan's Choice poll revealed from all the major
sites, were there any figures that shocked you? And were there any
figures
the sites voted for but could not be put on the list for one reason or
another (and if so, who and why)?
