Clone Wars Report


Hey all,

Have recently been lucky enough to get my hands on several Clone Wars toys before street date and thought I would share my first person perspective with the commmunity.

1) BMF (Big MotherF'in Falcon)

Had two of these well before I should have...and trust me, you want to be in line for this thing if you are serious about the Falcon. It's tricked out, its huge, the package has handles and big stores are only getting 3-5 in at a time with limited waves (its just too big to have many on aisle at once). Make this a chase people...you can always resell it later, cause everyone needs to get one.



2) Clone Wars 3.75 Wave 1

Wow. Just wow. I am not even that big of a 3.75 figure fan, and I wasn't expecting much from this line, but seriously, this is a whole new level of cool for SW figs. Packaging looks fantastic. The figures are incredibly detailed and feature firing weapons and tons of unique features figure to figure. To make the hype around the midnight sales that much crazier, the figs for that first wave of cases (likely to be devoured within 24hrs or less everywhere) are marked (but not all) with special stickers that say something like (1st Day Wave)...so yeah, these will be ebay bait for sure, since subsequent waves will not have the stickers...think of it as a new take on the gold coin stuff.
