If you like barely-different variations, Rey (Crait Defense) has salt shoes.  She's a lot like the other figures you bought last year, but hey, salt shoes.   Read on!

From the 4-pack, the First Order Walker Driver (The Last Jedi Line Look) is a great addition to your figure stash - but there's no vehicle for it to pilot just yet.  It's cool though, with added grey stripes to distinguish it from the half dozen or so Snowtroopers you bought since 2015.  Read on!

This week in Q&A - Figures sitting in vehicles! It has been a problem since the 1995 relaunch - although it was actually not too bad in 1995. Advertising! How does Hasbro pitch Star Wars in a post-Saturday Morning economy? And HasLab - should Hasbro let us vote on the next thing we vote on? Obviously, I'm guessing no.

And send in your questions for next week. Read on!

So check out Rose (Crait Defense) from the four-pack from The Last Jedi.  It's cool!  She has her necklace, and what's left of her First Order uniform.   And a blaster.  She's one of the cooler figures in the set, so assuming you didn't already buy one and are just looking to have your good sense of taste reenforced read on!

UPDATE: The item was backed with 8,840 Sail Barges sold, over the 5,000 goal.

HasLab's Star Wars Sail Barge now has over 7,600 supporters.  Obviously some must be doubling up, but that ain't bad - ends in just under 12 hours.   For those who haven't been following along at home, the vehicle includes a Yak Face on a Power of the Force cardback (seemingly with a slightly different image and Canadian-style layout) and needed 5,000 people to buy it for Hasbro to start production.   It's $499.99 plus applicable tax, and currently only ships to the USA and Canada unless you go through a third-party or set up your own freight forwarder.

Gold! The Vendor Droid (Gold, Droid Factory) is based on designs from The Clone Wars and is sold at Disney parks in parts bins.  Should you get one?  Probably!  Read on!

This week in Q&A - More Sail Barge prognosticating! What's next? And Why not try something smaller? I wrote all these answers before the item passed the goal, so you might get a kick out of this. And Vintage Cardback Complaints - we wouldn't be Star Wars fans if we were happy.

This week in Q&A - Sail Barge Bonus! Look, these questions are going to be stale next week so we had better get through 'em. As of my typing this Hasbro needs under 200 more supporters to get the Barge out, so it looks like it will happen.

The Maz Kanata (The Black Series 6-Inch) is pretty neat - but small! There's a ton of painted detail and great sculpting here, but the shorter character looks to be a normal sized 3 3/4-inch figure in a big box.  She has a trunk, a blaster, and a lightsaber.  Read on!

We're less than a month away from Solo toys, but while we wait let's catch up with LOM-Series Protocol Droid (Blue, Droid Factory).  You can put it together at the Disney parks, and yours might look different from mine - but it's blue!  It's cool!  Read on.

This week in Q&A - Vehicular shelf slaughter - what's "good" for a vehicle if the Sail Barge is 5,000? Legs! Sure, let's talk legs. And Customs sure why not. There's other stuff too, including toy store chatter since that part of the business is pretty rocky right now.

A surge of support on the HasLab Sail Barge came Wednesday morning after EW.com and StarWars.com posted Check Out New Photos of the Fully-Painted Jabba’s Sail Barge Prototype from Hasbro.   While we all expected to see painted pictures before the end of the funding period, we didn't expect that it might include a bonus.   Now take notes on this part, some fans are unclear and you're going to be one of the smart ones.
