An assumed 70’s classic I had seen, but at fist presumed it was vintage and thus silly money…

“Finally, a display solution that’s as much of a classic as your figures! The Pride Displays Star Wars Diorama is a British import that holds dozens of your favorite action figures in a faux-vintage Kenner style. This sturdy plastic stand has a reversible cardboard backdrop and 50 clear plastic stands sized to assist both modern and classic figures in standing on this display piece. A limited edition of 3,000 pieces, there’s no better way to show off your prized collection!A blast from the past, the Pride Displays Star Wars Action Figure Diorama infuses 1970s sensibilities into a limited edition product straight from the 21st Century. The UK-based company worked with sculptors with a firm understanding of the classic Kenner and Palitoy action figure playsets and recreated their style of toy in a new display stand designed with the adult collector in mind. Each display is based on original Star Wars playsets and includes 50 clear action figure stands that are sized to work with both classic (1978-1985) and modern (1995-present) Star Wars action figures. Packaged in a special box that looks right out of the 1970s, collectors will find the packaging to be just as staggeringly retro as the display stand within.Roughly 60% of the set is the Tatooine Desert, based on the old “Land of the Jawas” playset-there’s a Krayt Dragon skeleton, a cave for R2-D2, and a number of places to place figures. The remaining portion recreates an environment similar to the “Creature Cantina,” complete with a bar with a sticker providing additional detail. To give the display additional flavor, the designers included a reversible backdrop to show a classic image of the Death Star dogfight on one side, with images of Jawas scavenging across the Tatooine desert on the other. The entire display sits atop another black display stand, with the original Star Wars logo and the all-too familiar “A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…” text.With the Pride Displays Star Wars Display Stand, you can showcase your action figures in style. 50 clear plastic stands, a wonderful backdrop, and the finest attention to classic packaging detail seen on a Star Wars collectible since 1985, this 24 x 10 x 14-inch display is sure to please fans of the old Kenner toys as well as the modern Hasbro figures.”

A few more figures that we have been given to us are below, following on from our recent Six Inch Black Series announcement.  We reviewed a lot of info and we took JTA’s initial list & their updates today which revealed the missing Luke we shared was a craptastic ‘where’s my bubble bath’ 12 inch limited articulation figure, so this list below is not as clear when or where these figures will be placed within or without the next year.  Still, we thought you’d like the list to salivate over;

Clones ‘should’ be usng that recent mould rather than older versions. We can but hope.  UPC checkers, should you feel the need, go do your thang! Note for any anal peeps out there (and ther have been a few in the last 48hrs) We share this to get excited about new releases as shock-‘we love toys!’. We are not link baiting you to our site or out to ‘steal’ traffic. <facepalm> If you know us, you know we don’t do this very often, but when we do it’s always legit. Still issues?

Star Wars Black Series Six Inch Wave 2 &amp; 3 Figures Confirmed! Plus One Possible Missing from 3.3/4 Recent Black Series Announcements. http://bit.ly/ZCBBRQ 
The next Star Wars Black Series Waves 2 &amp; 3 (so all of 2013 basically) will be&#8230;Star Wars Episode 3 Anakin Skywalker 6&#8221; Action Figure  UPC:653569897828

Watch the video above more commentary and our thoughts on the figure choices.
On a separate issue the recent announcement by several sites of the 3/3/4 Black Series appears to be missing/in query over one figure from our list we received, which highlighted that there are two Luke&#8217;s with two differing UPC&#8217;s. No clear indication as to whether its an ROTS Luke or is in fact an error and a duplicate somehow of the Jedi Training Luke. We are inclined to think the latter but have included the list here for completeness.

Black Series Images. Lets All Throw The Toys Out the Pram. You CAN Fix This Hasbro. Please Do So. http://bit.ly/18VWHjt 




About 48 hrs ago, I emailed Hasbro PR (again) to complain at the nonsense that has been going on for several years with images for Star Wars product. In particular the inability for us to get access to all (not just some) images. Yet many images seem only to be secretly dished out to select retailers or perhaps some other site as an &#8216;exclusive&#8217;. Frankly who knows, it&#8217;s all a bit cloak and dagger and no one is spilling the beans.
Meanwhile, earlier today a girl guide bun fight broke out publicly between two Star Wars fan sites, which got quite sad and ugly and simply could have been resolved, if Hasbro had just shared the bloody images with us all in the first place.


We&#8217;re all here to promote Star Wars product because we are die hard fans and love and buy the product right? Yet there appears to be a war* over getting access to these images and you dear reader, are the reason everyone is fighting. Many sites (coming across a little desperately to my mind) want really deeply to be the king of exclusive images. And it&#8217;s all because your eyeballs and clicks help make sites more money in revenue. However, lets be clear, no-one is buying a fleet of Ferrari&#8217;s off a Star Wars fan sites revenue.
Images are about as exclusive as poop. The ones in question are stock images, so this is not people fighting over  an original rocket firing Fett or vinyl cape Jawa on the pegs, yet for a brief glimpse of traffic, exclusivity and potentially more ad money, threats, name slinging and and some really bitchy unprofessional shit is going down. I am sick of it.





Most large Star Wars fan sites including ourselves get select images directly from Hasbro and we all do our own thing with them. Our personal preference is to;


Leave the images alone, never brand them (as they belong to Hasbro and the photographer) and frankly do you really want us peeing our brand all over images you want to see? No.

We then upload them to our site and social channels for you to share, download or drool over. Emphasis on &#8216;share&#8217; and not greedily restricting them to force people to your site or pimp your brand.


Stock images should be given out to all sites to promote the product at the same time. Yet because Hasbro limit these and only give us a few, this makes many sites so desperate for traffic, exclusives and &#8216;likes&#8217; they will throw (as we&#8217;ve now seen today ) the toys out the pram in public. And it&#8217;s really quite sad.
If you haven&#8217;t read the exchange yet go here.None of these sites involved actually owns the rights to these images, they are in fact likely pinched from a retailer who has gotten access to these from Hasbro
Both sites then took others copyrighted images and applied their brand to it. Not Kosher.
The girl guide squabble started quite bitchily which was uncalled for, but then cascades in to swearing, and threats and enough mentions of balls, dicks and assholes to make me think I had ended up on some gay porn forum. Waaay unprofessional and not needed, especially if we all had the images.
Most of the Facebook fans didn&#8217;t even care about the bitchfest and were more interested in discussing the images themselves.
The Black Series card designs are not really great at all, so even more reason not to get too fussed about them
As someone who advises advertising strategies on behalf of some of these sites clients, I&#8217;m taking note of the kind of responses they give and I&#8217;m sure the clients I advise are too.
Whilst all this bitching was going on we&#8217;ve simply added the (unbranded images) to our Facebook albums and Google+ image library. Please re-post, share, and post on your own sites, blogs and social channels and lets end the image wars nonsense which frankly Hasbro you can fix very easily&#8230;
