He's new! The 3 3/4-inch K-2SO (Rogue One) has a cool grappling hook accessory, but no blaster like his 6-inch counterpart. What does he have in the movie? I have no idea, I haven't seen it. But I have seen the figure, and the figure's ball-and-socket joints give him a good range of motion. And less stability. But he looks cool. Read on!
Hey, it's a new Imperial Stormtrooper! He has 5 points of articulation, blast-off armor, and one of the better sculpts we've seen in recent memory. The blaster is new and different, but the figure looks like a classic. Do you need to army-build this one? (Well, you would if there was a big playset to go with it.) Read on!
This week in Q&A - Droids. What did Disney put out - and did you miss their special event robots? Exclusive pack-in figures used to be a pain in the neck, because you used to buy an expensive vehicle to get them. They still are, but they used to, too. And HD versus the Original Trilogy - what new figures are you finding you want now that you can actually see them?
And send in your questions for next week. Read on!
In the first teaser we briefly see what appears to be Jyn Erso wearing the Imperial Ground Crew outfit, and that's about all that we know about these guys. They look cool, and fit in with the existing Empire aesthetic. And they're in stores. Should you get one? Read on!
This Captain Cassian Andor comes with the new U-Wing Fighter, which may or may not be at a store near you - it would seem the Rogue One roll-out is something many retailers have almost started. The figure ain't bad, the ship is better than you might think, but it's not cheap - thanks, inflation. Want to know more? Read on!

Hey, something new! It's a big day for new Star Wars, and Hasbro PR just sent us the skinny on a new boxed set. It is as follows:

Let's kick off this weekend - yes, we're gonna do a bunch of these - with the character whose last name is almost the German word for "first." The first release of 3 (or more) known 3 3/4-inch releases of our new Rebel hero is Sergeant Jyn Erso, now showing up carded with 7 points of articulation, a working holster, a movable breathing mask, and a non-removable helmet. And if you pull off her arms, you can see under the poncho. Don't do that. But you can see how it looks - just read on!

I'll have the skinny for you when I (hopefully) pick up my set in October along with (hopefully) R2-B00.
It's the Captain Phasma 3 3/4-inch super-articulated figure from Walmart? Have you found one yet? Probably not - usually the waves hit, but don't saturate for a few months. Vigilance! It pays off - it's a good figure if you can find one. Read on!

Thanks to our pal Seth, we have been alerted to this fine item. The Star Wars Logo Display Case came out in Japan a few months ago and sells for about US $24. It has room to fit a few figures or small vehicles, or what any collector might refer to as an adorable first day of being in the hobby. It's stylish and classy, which clashes with the gargantuan toy hordes in our homes and offices.
Hasbro's PR team kindly sent along a press release with many new and some neewish exclusives!

None of the 3 3/4-inch figure exclusives are listed here, but 6-inch, prop replicas, Nerf guns, and more await you after the jump.
