This week, Dan and Jerry are back to discuss all that is happening--or perhaps NOT happening at store shelves. Even though the "brick and mortars" are quiet, there is a lot of on-line news this week. Gentle Giant put three new pre-orders up and there's sure to be something for everybody: a jumbo vintage figure, a deluxe mini-bust, and a deluxe statue.

Here is a quick update from our sponsors at http://www.bigbadtoystore.com about another big batch of cool new preorders as well as some great new arrivals, including the latest offerings from Gentle Giant and Kotobukiya.

It's a good time to be a fangirl of the Star Wars saga as Her Universe, the female sci-fi genre line of fashionable apparel and accessories, revealed today it's new Spring/Summer line to debut at Star Wars Weekends at Disney's Hollywood Studios in Orlando, Florida on May 18th (running each weekend till June 10th) and online at www.heruniverse.com on May 21st.

So, is it time to expect that Z-95 Headhunter? I'm gonna say probably not. What's up with Canada getting an exclusive Yoda variation? And should we wait for vintage updates of certain figures, or is there already a great alternative to be had? All this and Shuttles in this week's Q&A!

There's finally some break through after a few months of a devil's existence and lingering TPM Wave 1's as Wal-Mart is receiving shipments of Vintage Wave 4 with Dr. Evazan, Aayla Secura, and Kithaba. 

The biggest chatter of the year comes from Florida, where Droid Factory is being deployed at Disney Hollywood Studios.

Our pal Chuck sent us some awesome images over teh Twitter, and you can click through to see them (and follow him) after the break.
