February 28th, 2010 Comments Off Posted in Galactic Heroes, Hasbro Heroes

Rebelscum has two pieces of awesome Galactic Heroes news, which is good because so far 2010 Galactic Heroes news has been pretty slow going!

First, the long awaited Escape from Kamino (aka, Jango Fett’s Slave I) and Attack on the Invisible Hand (aka Anakin’s Episode III Starfighter) have been spotted at a Walmart in Oklahoma! Second, new Galactic Heroes sticker sheets have been found in some sets! Ahsoka Tano, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and the Clone Trooper are all represented. Head over to the Galactic Heroes message board to talk!

Galactic Heroes AT-AT in 2010

February 4th, 2010 Comments Off Posted in Galactic Heroes

JesseVader pointed out that the Galactic Heroes AT-AT has been confirmed for 2010! Now it looks like we need to come up with some more questions for the Hasbro Star Wars Q&A… it’s a tough situation but hopefully you Galactic Heroes fans can help with that dilemma.

From Jedi News

1) The Galactic Heroes AT-AT has been solicited and shown by Hasbro several times over the last few years, including the UK and Canadian Toy Fair last year. When will this awesome product see the light of day (it seems like 2010 would be a great time to tie in with the 30th Anniversary of Empire)?

The Galactic Heroes AT-AT finally will be coming out to retail this Fall, scheduled for availability around August 1st. It’s a really nifty vehicle that is a perfect addition to the cute world of Galactic Heroes.

James – “We saw the final product at the UK Toy Fair and it does indeed look awesome and has some great features too – you’re going to have to wait till the US Toy Fair, in 10 days time, to find out more though… Also, for those in the UK wondering – it WILL be coming here!”

Rebelscum.com has pictures of the new Galactic Heroes sets Shadow Squadron Y-Wing and Assault on Ryloth.

On an unrelated note, our webhost was migrating servers today, so for a chunk of time we were unavailable. Sorry for the inconvenience, but fingers crossed, it should mean faster and more efficient future internetting! As always, head over to the Rumor Buster message board to discuss.

Galactic Heroes Q&A’s!

December 22nd, 2009 Comments Off Posted in Galactic Heroes

First off, news from Yoda’s News that the Kamino Showdown and Purchase of Droids Galactic Heroes cinema scenes are apparently now on tap for a March 2010 release!

YN: Any word as to when we might see those missing Galactic Heroes sets? The “Kamino Showdown” and “Purchase of Droids” sets were supposed to show up at TRU stores in August hit the shelf? So far we have neither heard nor seen anything. Have these sets been cancelled? Please say NO. Thanks!

Hasbro: It’s taken a while for the previous TRU Galactic heroes Cinema Scenes to move through retail, but right now we are looking at March on-shelf. We have packaged samples ourselves so they should be shipping soon if all goes well.

Meanwhile, Han’s Hideout asks some questions about the possibility of a Galactic Heroes TIE Interceptor:

3. A question from one of my boys – Will you make a new Galactic Heroes “TIE Fighter with the bendy wings” [aka a TIE Interceptor]? Liam, Age 3.

That’s a great question. We don’t have one in the works, but it does fit the profile of a vehicle that would make a great impact in the Cinema Scene assortment. We’ll discuss it with the team. Thanks for the suggestion…tell your boy it was an excellent choice and that we hope we can make him happy. Just make sure he stays into Galactic Heroes for a few more years!
