Today: let's look at the not-common-enough Imperial Royal Guard (The Black Series) 6-inch action figure! It's really cool - and the helmet isn't removable. You do get armor under the robes, so custom Kir Kanos figures can't be far behind. Read on!
This week in Q&A - The Black Series! Do Legends have a future? The next action figure guide book - Disney, or not Disney? Also where do dioramas go to die? We're not sure, actually.
And send in your questions for next week. Read on!
The 6-inch The Black Series Captain Rex will be available early at HasCon! And apparently you can also buy Headmaster Arcee, a Power Bank Optimus Prime, new Magic: The Gathering cards, and some other items that may or may not be shared or to be fully announced. We shall see! Click through to iO9 for more.
Take a look at R5-S9 (Droid Factory), it's blue! The colors don't match the show perfectly, but it's also not an animated figure. You can find this The Clone Wars-inspired robot at Disney theme parks in a 4-pack, and of course we're going to look at them all. Read on!
This week in Q&A - The 40th Anniversary Line! Everybody got what they wanted here, right? Nothing left on the table? And Blade Runner plus more Vintage stuff. Some things may not be destined for us all. Is it time for Hasbro to try in-store displays of figures? Probably not, but let's look at it anyway.

From the Disney parks, it's R5-P8 (Droid Factory)! It has a gun, lots of painted dirt, and a cartoony monster face on it. It's brilliant. You should get one. Read on!
If you recall last year, Hasbro didn't announce its Jyn Erso exclusive until San Diego Comic-Con-goers were already on the ground. This year, we may (because it wasn't officially announced yet) be seeing this Star Wars: The Black Series Jedi Master Luke Skywalker and Jedi In Training Rey 2-pack as seen on the Jedi Insider today. It hasn't been officially announced at all, but it does look a lot like official Hasbro photography. More as we have it!
Today: Disney's See-Threepio (C-3PO, Droid Factory) from the 2-pack! It's not bad - it's a little fake filthy, too. Is this the super-articulated C-3PO you've been waiting for? Read on!
This week in Q&A - The AT-ACT! You probably didn't buy it - but what was up with the most expensive action figure vehicle for Star Wars ever made? And the coin card figures - will Hasbro do vintage-style figures with those metal coins? Also Fan's Choice, the surest way to stir fan discussion and death threats.

A few months ago, Disney surprised us by releasing C1-10P "Chopper" - with tons of extra parts and articulation. It's a The Vintage Collection figure in all but name and packaging! The arm pops out. You can pop more arms in to his dome. You can change out third legs... he has third legs. It's great, get one. Read on!
This week in Q&A - The Future of Force Friday! Or Boba Fett's cartoon regeneration - will we see a tooned up version again? Also Kickstarter toys, because we love them.

Formerly two of the biggest juggernauts in America, it seems like we're having regular monthly updates on more store closures for both Kmart and Sears. In a blog at Sears Holdings, 35 more Kmarts and 8 more Searses are set to begin liquidation this week - including the last remotely handy Kmart to GHHQ. You can read Transformation Update for more, or go right to the list of closures.
