Hasbro announces a new line called
Star Wars AMP’D. More details to be announced (probably tomorrow), but for now, here is what they've announced:
"In fall, kids can gear up for battle with STAR WARS AMP’D. For the first time ever, kids will be able to quickly and easily customize the most iconic STAR WARS vehicles and prepare them for any mission: land, space, sea or air! In 2012, the line features 9 figures and 6 vehicles." UPDATE: Image added of what looks to be an interesting vehicle that can be rearranged to simulate other configurations.

Watching the auction for the
obviously fake carded Yak Face currently running is like witnessing a train wreck in slow motion. The
Star Wars collecting watchdogs have taken this auction up over $90,000! Now, for the record, we don't condone such actions, but it is certainly something to see. Click through to check it out, but please don't add to the bids.

One of the most sought after carded figures in the Original Kenner Collection has found its way to eBay, or so you'd think. Follow this link to check out the
carded Power Of The Force Yak Face, and note that the price is the result of bids and not a high starting bid.
Unfortunately, it is a fake. At close look it is clearly a custom card. If you are one of the 27 current bidders,
retract your bid now!
