Unofficial SDCC 2013 News and Complaint Thread
« on: July 17, 2013, 10:07:33 AM »
I saw Yakface did something like this perusing Facebook today and thought it was a great idea. Here is the place to put your nuggets as well as your opinion on the new Hasbro Items we see at SDCC.



Information is already starting to trickle out like the Telepods so I can't wait to see some AF News.

Limit one of Boba. Maybe the rest of us will be able to get one later!

Are those all GG Jumbo Kenner figs?  That Wampa is pretty slick, even I might have to try to get that one.

I can still remember you at C5 trying to decide whether or not you wanted to keep the stormy and boba jumbos. I really do like them.

Still, take a look at what Sideshow is doing Hoth Wise. Not sure how to spell the FB Handle I found this at, but if you go to our FB Page you can see it:

A few more images of Hasbro from Galactic Hunter's FB Coverage. Looks like Droid Factory is not cancelled after all.

Well some of em are already out for pre-order and the cheapest I have seen em go for is $64. A few, like the Xmas Yoda, are PG Exclusives but you do get a ten percent discount. I would assume the wampa will be over a hundred and perhaps a bit more.

Rune, I have a feeling that is just some type of decoration for their Booth Set Up. I could be wrong though.

Yodasnews says it's a new series, and that a Vader one is planned also.

Wow, I can't imagine the cost then. I mean lets take the Jumbo Stormy which was a hundred and some at convention. I would assume this one would have to go for over 500 perhaps closer to a thousand. I guess if they can sell the bronze statues like we saw for thousands of dollars then this will sell a few too, but I doubt in huge quantities upon first look. I am gonna have to rearrange my own space to display my GG Jumbos.
