You didn’t think we could pass up Hasbro’s booth without mentioning these irresistible little guys, did you?
Hasbro again delivers on the line that just aims to please with at least seven new 2-packs on deck, including some Clone Wars entries (the Clone Wars look translates very well to these little guys!). Head on over to our Flickr series to check these out!
Don’t miss our continuing photo coverage of all the Star Wars goodness appearing at New York’s Toy Fair this year!
Found a bunch of new cinema scenes…
They look stellar!

I found Slave 1 and Endor Attack at K-Mart in Duluth. Our Target up here isn’t stocking Galactic Heroes (or Super Hero Squad for that matter) anymore. I’ve had more luck at Walmart than Target for the 2-packs, but Target does seem to have the cinema scenes more often.
TRUS had all the cinema scenes here in PA yesterday .. SLAVE I, SAIL BARGE, Both ENDORS …. check out TRUS
Here in the PHX area the Slave I made a comeback as well for the gift giving season but at Target stores, just last night I saw 2 on the shelf and one guy was already picking one up. This has to be one of that fastest sellers as far as cinema scenes go (along with the MF)
I found the Slave 1 and Endor Attack set at the West St. Paul Super Target. They had several of each. This was a week ago.
Here in the Kansas City areas they had the slave 1 and endor attack scences as well,at the tru, but nothing at the targets we have been to.
Final hit paydirt in the twin cities with slave I and Endor attack…nothing like waiting til the last minute, but Santa always delivers. Now I just need to find a Ventress GH and I’ll be all set.
Toys R Us now has the Slave 1 and Endor Attack available online IN STOCK.
I was able to get caught up on all our Galactic Heroes by Christmas. My son was so excited. The only one we don’t have is the Endor Celebration with the 3 Jedi Ghosts. This is a tough purchase because my son won’t play with the Ghosts; they’ll just go on the shelf. The only other new character is Leia in her “Endor Celebration” attire. No fun for a boy there either. We’ll probably wait more on this Scene and watch for a sale.
What’s going on with the new stuff? Anyone have any word? I saw the following – http://www.hasbro.com/starwars/en_US/shop/details.cfm?guid=21554BF3-19B9-F369-D931-92F7FF79D0B4&product_id=25758&src=endeca
They list new stuff on Hasbro.com but if you click the link to buy, it’s broken.
My son can’t wait for the Y-Wing. I told him February and he’s already counting the days.
I am at a lost as to a set of toys I found when cleaning out a collectible box. Does anyone know what they are? They are clear plastic approx. 1 inch by two inches and about 1/4″ thick. Each on has a photo and the back has For example: Name: 2 Obi-Wan Status: Jedi Knight apprentice to Qui-Gon Jinn or Name: 26 Captain Tarpals Status: Commander of the Gungan Army. They appear to have a circuit board on each one to insert into a game or something. I have 19 of them and have no idea what they are. Thanks Suzanne
Suzanne. They are COMMTECH chips that came as pack-ins with the Episode I (The Phantom Menace) basic figures back in 1999. You could plug these into a “player” and the chip will play lines from the character. This is what you have right?
