They love pizza! These Porgs (Batuu, The Black Series 6-Inch) are exclusives at Galaxy's Edge in Anaheim right now - they're slightly different from previous Porgs in that one is a screaming Porg and the other is the sad-eyed Porg. There's limited articulation and they come in a box with 3 other figures - 1 of which is new, 2 of which are slightly different. Read on!
Jabba's palace in 6-inch scale, complete with a Rancor, and the Barge in 3 3/4-inch scale, were on display in full force!

So how was the Hasbro breakfast here in San Diego? Awesome. But for Star Wars? There's nothing you haven't already seen. Hasbro showed off its Hyper Real Darth Vader and Black Series X-Wing Helmet along with a couple of Comic-Con exclusives. We snapped a few photos, but you've seen these before. New reveals were promised in this afternoon's panel, so stay tuned for more!
Just different enough to make you mad... and it's better, too! This Galaxy's Edge C-3PO (Droid Depot, The Black Series 6-Inch) uses 4-LOM's arms to give you an all-gold C-3PO with jointed elbows. The previous versions were rather stiff - this is a big improvement. Read on!
While you're distracted waiting for Comic-Con news, read about Chopper (C1-10P, The Black Series 6-Inch.) This is a good one - there are claw arms in the dome, a claw in the torso, swappable legs, and a puff of fake plastic smoke. It pretty much has it all. Read on!

Or you could not.
This Rey (Batuu, The Black Series 6-Inch) from Galaxy's Edge is something I did not much want, but is still pretty impressive. While the original release of this figure is plentiful and cheap, Disney's boxed set version has that realistic face printing that does make a big difference. If you're good with your Rey collection, you don't need it - but if you want the very best? Read on!
The official Star Wars site, PR people, and all sorts of fans saw the news that you can See the New Sith Trooper from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker at SDCC 2019. This means that the people behind the movies now know what smart, handsome toy professionals have known for years - red looks good on Stormtroopers.
Funko, Hasbro, Loungefly, Topps, Rubie's (Hi Lenny!), Hot Toys, and more - interestingly, not Mattel - will be selling some first-look Sith Trooper action figures. For those with memory issues, Hasbro has done "sneak preview" The Black Series figures for all of the Disney-era movies except for Solo, and nearly identical figures were released with different packaging and sometimes without some accessories later.
BB-8 (Resistance line look) comes with that really cool Poe figure in a 2-pack you might see at a store near you now. He's cleaner than usual, and this is one of the lower-priced ways to get a BB-8 these days. Read on!
New if you can find it, the Lando Calrissian (The Vintage Collection) is theoretically shipping now! He has a blaster, a cape, a scarf, and a working holster - plus an even better 3 3/4-inch likeness of Donald Glover. If you can find it, you should get one. Read on!
This is it! Tiny improvements over time have finally fallen to this all-new Imperial Stormtrooper based on the Rogue One redesign - the tell being the blaster. It has more articulation and better, shinier detail than ever before. But is it perfect? It's certainly very very good - read on!
This is the Resistance A-Wing Pilot from The Last Jedi red A-Wing Fighter. She has a new head! It's not just a repaint! Granted, you'll have to squint to discover this. Read on!
