This week in Q&A - Just how much stuff did you miss? Lots! If you blink your life will fly right by you, and action figures will go with it. And The Secrets of Disney's Star Wars - are we helping? And TIE Fighters. Is there a best one? Or... is it a tie? The pun may anger you!

While I've got more of these bigger guys coming in the mail, this Luke Skywalker completes the current round of 6-inch "value" figures which may be at a store that you don't frequent near you right now.  Luke doesn't have hip joints, but he is pretty big for the price.   Want to see more?  Read on!

Another 6-inch budget figure!  Darth Vader is pretty much required to exist in any figure format, so the enlarged toy with reduced articulation would be a given.  He's not taller than Han or his casemates, but he is a lot more fun to play with than a cake topper.  Unlike the others, his lightsaber is completely removable from his hand - but should you go on a toy run to try to find this one?   Read on!

Continuing the value range of 6-inch Hasbro figures at Family Dollar, let's look at Han Solo.   His blaster is molded to his hand, and the texture on his pants is pretty intense.   The head deco is similar to the vintage Kenner figures of old, and he looks a lot like Hasbro's other recent offerings of Harrison Ford from the original movie.  Read on!

And here we go again!  This Kanan Jarrus is a 6-inch action figure with 4 points of articulation that you can't really easily find online.   I'm only finding them at Family Dollar stores - it's a "value" item.   Should you get one?  Is a $6.75 6-inch figure worth your while?  Read on!

This week in Q&A - let's talk about Titanium and Hot Wheels vehicles - did you miss some? Probably! Changes - I don't plan on making many, but you asked. And old prototypes - there's really only one way to handle selling those things, and I think you know what it is.

And maybe some other stuff throughout the week if I stop being sick.

My eyeballs feel like they're melting, so that means I'm getting sick or allergies or perhaps it's just time for Q&A! Let's talk about exclusives a bit, with Classic Characters and not many new releases. Hey, that's life. And why not fill some space with vehicles and playsets? Sure, let's do!

If you're a living, breathing fan of Star Wars it's a safe bet that you're always looking for something new.  Well, I've found it.   We saw images of a Finn last year, which I have yet to see here in the USA, but I have seen new 6-inch action figures of Kanan Jarrus, Luke Skywalker, and Darth Vader at Family Dollar.   Presumably these are showing up elsewhere, too. 

This week in Q&A - Let's talk about Toy Fair a bit, with Classic Characters and not many new releases. Hey, that's life. And why not fill some space with vehicles and playsets? Sure, let's do!

This week in Q&A - let's talk big vehicles again. Are they dead? No. Are more coming? Not yet. Playsets - yeah. No. And stuck joints, that I can help you with.

I am live-tweeting Toy Fair right now!  Follow @Adam16bit on Twitter.

Update: Star Wars live now. It's over!

This week in Q&A - vintage reproduction weapons - how widespread are they? Tough to say... but they usually do feel different. And more 6-inch figures from the original movie - what's the prognosis? Droids - let's talk more about droids. You should get excited about droids, because droids are the droidiest things you can droid.

The headline says it all, and this story at Bloomberg says even more.  This is at least the second attempted takeover/merger between the two toy giants, and there's no word on if it is or isn't happening - but it's certainly interesting timing with Toy Fair next week.  Read this one.

Hasbro's new PR team wrote in today to share a tidbit about Toy Fair - and we spoiled it in the headline.  They say:

"We wanted to let you know that there will be no toys based on Rogue One: A Star Wars Story shown at Toy Fair this year. While there will be a small selection of new Star Wars toys revealed at Toy Fair and in the days leading up to it, none of them will be directly based on the new characters from the upcoming film."

This week in Q&A - Let's talk the Episode 8 Delay - is it a problem? Not for me! And the doom of Toys R Us and the impending toy clearance crunch - I may not share your opinions. But I do think the old Expanded Universe still very much has a home in the redacted galaxy we inhabit today... it just might not be identical.
