We have uploaded all of the powerpoint slides from Hasbro's Toy Fair presentation. You won't find too much in there that hasn't been covered in my photos and write ups from the event, but check them out here.

Lots of great looking things coming out this year, that's for sure. I can hardly wait to see some of these on the pegs and shelves. Hasbro is really being good to us this year.

There will come a time when your training ends. There will come a day when you have learned all the lessons, when all my knowledge of the dark side will be yours. On that day you will challenge me for the title of Master, and only one of us will survive the encounter.

Is anyone going to get the A-wing or are they going to pass on it? I want to get the A-wing because I don't have one.

i have the saga a-wing but i plan to get this one as well. i have no problem getting a repack of a ship if there were multiples in the movie. plus arvel crynd looks like it reuses the tycho body which is a plus imo.

I picked one up as a kid on a trip to Rhode Island several years after RotJ and Star Wars was pretty much impossible to find out west anymore. I loved it! Maybe because it was a great toy or maybe because it was the last Star Wars vehicle I EVER bought as a kid. Either way, I loved it! That being said, I don't collect vehicles anymore and I'm not sure how much my kids dig the A-Wing. Being their ages, 5 and 8, and growing up in their era, they are much more into the prequel trilogy and those vehicles. So, given the choice of the V-19 Torrent or the A-Wing, I'm sure they'll pass on the A-Wing.

Actually I did miss out 2 times because I didn't start collecting SW till Aug of 06'. So that put me way out of the time frame to get one. I know you guys hav'em but this ol boy don't, so it's going to be a welcome to my collection. Really, 07' was my FIRST REAL year to collect SW since I started so late in the 06'. I have tried NOT to miss out on anything from last year, which so far I haven't other then 3po and R2 C4. So with 08' figures and vehicles coming up, I intend on doing the same as I did last year and not miss anything if I can help it. Is anyone going to get the A-wing or are they going to pass on it? I want to get the A-wing because I don't have one.

well hasbro has changed the release dates on some of these things, but it's worth watching again to see what may be coming up for 7/26
