Up-And-Coming Star Wars Figures

Prowl 2009 · 07-14-2011, 08:26 AM

Similar to my DC Universe Classics thread, I also run a thread similar to this over at actionfigurenews.ca, keeping Star Wars fans up to date regarding the latest Star Wars offerings from Hasbro!

Today, thanks to Sandtroopers.com, we have some really awesome shots of the newly released K-Mart Exclusive B-Wing that has started popping up at K-Mart retailers since last week!

Take a look at these awesome shots! Accrording to the site, the new B-Wing features the retooled Dagger Squadron cockpit and the same interchangable, firing weapon option and a spiffy new paint job that puts the older POTJ version to shame!

Start checking your local K-Mart's for this awesome addition to the Vintage Collection and thanks to Sandtroopers.com for sharing these awesome shots with us!

I love this fighter, and hopefully I'll have the means to acquire one soon.

Problem is the nearest K-Mart sucks.

Just picked one up at the Kmart in Cary, NC. They weren't out on the floor yet but there was a guy stocking a nearby aisle and he was cool enough to pull a case from the back out of a shipment they had just received. There were two in the case but I only bought one. It was $39.99.

don't have the money but I have all the other Wings so i must do it

Nice!

Shin-Gouki · 07-17-2011, 09:13 AM

Crap like this tempts me to buy Star Wars stuff, mainly for the Boxes. Like Taco Doritos, I don't really like them like I do Nacho, but I buy them for the Old School Bag.

This will be added to my VOTC.

soundwave85 · 07-18-2011, 11:14 AM

I got to buy one of these.

perrych · 07-19-2011, 04:17 AM

I hope my Kmart carries these. It has been hit/miss lately.

Reports are coming in that the Star Wars Blu-Ray Commemorative sets are now hitting US retailer Target and are priced at $24.99 each.

Thanks to our friends over at Rebelscum.com, we have some beautiful shots of TVC Wave 7 Rebel Fleet Trooper. This much needed upgraded figure features lots of articulation and some nice accessories and is sure to fly off store pegs very quickly, so keep your eyes peeled!

Thanks to Rebelscum.com for the awesome attached shots!

Shin Densetsu · 07-20-2011, 09:07 AM

Damn, I might buy that B-Wing, I have Dagger Squadron but it will be hard to pass up the original ROTJ paint scheme. Plus the B-Wing is one of my favorite starfighters. Hope the A-Wing is re-released next.

Thanks to our friends over at Rebelscum.com, we have some nice shots of another TVC Wave 7 piece, Jedi Padawan Barriss Offee. Again, this is a much needed update over the original figure released in 2002's Saga line. Original shots of this all-new figure showed it with a soft-goods cloak, but this was cancelled in favour of the sculpted plastic one. The hood and cloak are removable and the figure sports two lightsaber hilts, one lit, the other deactivated. Thanks to Rebelscum.com for the awesome attached photos!

Thanks once again to our friends over at Rebelscum.com, we have a great look at TVC Wave 7 ARC Trooper Commander (AKA : Captain Fordo)! A figure that has been done time and time again, Fordo uses the new Clone Trooper body, features some nice articulation and great accessories, including Phase 1 and Phase 2 helmets, a kama and shoulder pauldron, belt with holsters, 2 blaster pistols and a shoulder harness / belt/ holster addition. This is perhaps the coolest addition to TVC Wave 7 and, as with the Rebel Fleet Trooper, this figure is sure to fly off store pegs very quickly. So keep your eyes peeled! This is one awesome figure that you seriously don't want to pass up!

Thanks to Rebelscum.com for the awesome attached shots!

Me too. I wanted the one that's currently out but her face apps are disappointing. I want one that looks pissed like when she fights.

Check out slides from the Hasbro Star Wars Presentation at SDCC 2011 for what fans can expect in stores over the coming year!

Thanks to Rebelscum.com for supplying these for us!

Talisman · 07-26-2011, 03:27 PM

Holy crap, BASTILA!

Now if only I had Revan.

Prowl 2009 · 07-27-2011, 06:30 AM

Returning to the Vintage Collection Wave 7 previews prior to Comic Con, today's Wave 7 update comes to us in the form of Han Solo (Bespin Outfit). Another much improved figure, based on his appearance in The Empire Strikes Back, he features lots of articulation and comes complete with his famous blaster pistol, goggles and a welding torch.

Enjoy the attached photos supplied by our friends over at Rebelscum.com!

Prowl 2009 · 07-27-2011, 06:46 AM

Next up in our TVC Wave 7 review is the highly anticipated Cantina patron Bom Vimdin - considered to be one of the most memorable characters in the cantina scene in A New Hope. He sports a rather ornery expression and comes loaded with weapons!

Dude we need a new Revan. 1st one had an inaccurate mask and no knee joints.

Also found out that the Kmart Bwing has no pilot figure included. WTF.

Prowl 2009 · 07-28-2011, 07:10 AM

Our next TVC Wave 7 update comes in the form of the Ewok Medicine Man, Logray. One of the first Ewok figures released in both vintage and modern lines, this new version, with it's improved articulation, paint and accessories, is the definitive and most articulated Ewok figure ever made.

Thanks to Rebelscum.com for the attached shots!
