This week in Q&A - Vehicle prices! I wouldn't hold your breath on finding them out. Plastic types and flexibility! We know a little bit. And also Disaster Preparedness - predicting the market is a hard job.
Be sure you send in your questions for next time. The mailbag is out of on-topic questions, so if you got some, send some in. Read on!

Via Hasbro Pulse: PulseCon. Since San Diego and New York events were skipped by Hasbro, they're running panels Friday and Saturday from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM Eastern, with product going on sale at 5:00 PM. Exclusive product will only be on Pulse, but you can get other stuff elsewhere.
Speculation has it that new HasLab items will be revealed or teased today, including the worst-kept-secret, The Black Series Rancor monster creature.
For non-exclusive items, consider affiliate/advertiser Entertainment Earth who will be offering free shipping on many of the new pre-orders. Keep an eye on that link for today's new reveals, which should include Star Wars, Power Rangers, Transformers, and... that may be it actually. Theoretically your other favorite online stores will also be putting these up today as well, but they don't pay me, so they don't get a link. Sorry, I don't make the rules.
This week in Q&A - Retro figures! There are more than one ways to do these. Razor Crests! Will you get yours early? Single pilots! I wouldn't hold your breath!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Elite Squad Trooper (The Black Series 6-Inch). When is a Clone not a Clone? When it's this guy! This uses the 2020 upper body and the original double-jointed knees, making it a bit more than just a repaint. If you haven't seen The Bad Batch, this one may be new to you - but it looks cool, so get one. Read on!
Ad: Get New Star Wars: The Mandalorian Wave 2 pre-ordered, and wave 1 is in stock - get yours while you can!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Kylo Ren (The Black Series / Titanium Series / 40th Anniversary). The die-cast metal 3 3/4-inch figure has a display stand, an alternate head, and a backdrop that reminds me of the 1990s etched foil cards from Topps. Read on!
This week in Q&A - Sell throughs! Why yes, Hasbro selling all it makes is a good thing. New Disney Droids! It's been slow. (And where is my rainbow robot???) Droids cartoon figures! It may not be exactly what I wanted, but yes, I'm happy we got something.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R9-Series Astromech Droid White with Purple Panels (2015 Edition). The dome may not be super familiar outside fans of the classic Expanded Universe, but that's what makes it neat! Also it's very purple. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Death Star Droid (The Vintage Collection). It's a repaint of a figure from over 10 years ago, but it's a nice one - so maybe you won't mind the reduced articulation since it genuinely looks great. Read on!
This week in Q&A - Droid Factory parts! There haven't been new ones in the bins for a while. Repaints and rerepaints! They continue to sell. No, really. And Vlix! Expect no surprises.
