Have you been to your local Toys R Us lately? Coast to coast, reports are
coming in that Toys R Us is breaking street date with their stock of new
figures, Saga Legends, The Clone Wars, and Vintage Collection, all hitting
pegs en masse! The Snowspeeder, Cloud Car, and Republic Tank vehicles have
been spotted as well! While releases are spotty, some stores putting out
everything and some putting out nothing at all, with a buy-one-get-one 50%
off deal it's too enticing to pass up! Listen to this week's Star Wars
Action News podcast as show listeners call in with reports and reviews on
these brand new Hasbro toys!
Also this week, Arnie and Marjorie round up the latest convention news,
including San Diego Comic Con exclusives and Star Wars Celebration 5
exclusives, including a special collectible from the C5 collector's panels.
With a Hasbro Q&A and more, it's all on this week's Star Wars Action News!
And while tickets are SOLD OUT for the Star Wars Action News/Yakface party
at Star Wars Celebration 5, you can sign up for the waitlist in case a
handful come available. For information n how to get on the waitlist, your

1) With so many original trilogy vehicles finally getting releases (Cloud
Car!), rereleases (Snowspeeder), or upgrades (AT-ST/AT-AT), is a rerelease
or upgrade of the Skiff on the horizon, preferably as a non-exclusive
vehicle?
2) Last year you mentioned in a Q&A session that new TIE Bomber with newly
tooled cockpit was in development for a possible 2010/2011 release. Can you
give us an update on whether plans have solidified around this vehicle yet
please or perhaps share any details about what else will set it apart from
previous releases? Is it larger or does it have any cool new features? Are
the wings retooled and a little bigger perhaps? Also, if it's not too early
to know, will it be gray or blue in hue?
