Happy Force Friday II!
Disney and Lucasfilm are going all out today in celebration of Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Force Friday II brings a slew of new releases in apparel, toys and more! Check out a special delivery I got today…
Hasbro sent me a giant box of some of their new releases for free today. Let me let you down easy first – there were no Porgs. :(
But tons of rad stuff! Dewey, as usual, is not amused. Though he could make a new home for himself in this giant box!
Before I go any further I have to say this would make epic wallpaper.
The photo below features…

Did anyone wait at any stores overnight for the events? Did you head out today?
Waitwaitwait… as a famous nerd bloggger you get sent Star Wars toys—for free??? Teach me your ways, oh awesome Jedi master! ;-P
OK but seriously, 12-year-old me would have loved those bladebuilder things. Replica sabers are nice, but customizing your own would really make it feel like you were training to be a Jedi.
No, give in to the Dark Side….we have WARM cookies.
That AT-AT driver is pretty useless without a 1:12 AT-AT.
