If you are a collector of StarWars toys, a parent looking for a perfect gift for your children, or just a Star Wars movie fan who wants to decorate his desk with a cool action figure or statue of your favorite Star Wars character, you might be interested in the most recent or upcoming releases of new Star Wars toys, figures, vehicle or other collectible items.
As an avid collector, I'm constantly looking for new interesting items, so I'd like to share some of my latest discoveries with you.
New Clone Star Wars figures and vehicles by Hasbro
Since the Clone Wars TV series is quite popular among the fans, so are the related Clone Wars toys. So what can we expect in near future?
First of all, there are some really cool new 3 3/4-inch scale vehicle packs (wave 6) scheduled to be released before the end of 2009. They include some really nice pieces like General Grievous Starfighter, AAT Trade Federation Tank, Obi-Wan's Delta 2 Starfighter, Darth Vader's TIE Fighter and others. If you buy them as gifts for your children, they will sure like the special action features, like firing rockets etc.
Later on, in January 2010, there should be a new release of Deluxe 3 3/4-inch scale Star Wars figurines sets (action figure + matching vehicle). You can look forward to Anakin Skywalker Desert Sport Skiff, Clone Commander Cody with BARC Speeder and my favorite Clone Trooper Scout with AT-RT Vehicle, to name just a few.
New LEGO Star Wars Toys
The LEGO construction sets are definitely among the most popular toys so every new release is eagerly awaited by the movie fans and especially by their children. The most recent additions include LEGO 8036 Separatists Shuttle (with 5 really cool mini figures), LEGO 8038 Endor Battle Playset (with opening bunker, walking AT-ST, 12 figures, and more) and LEGO Clone Walker and Assassin Droid Set including bonus figures in each box.
Of course, there are many companies constantly releasing new StarWars figures and toys, so I just picked the ones I find most interesting at the moment. I'm also looking on other types of Star wars merchandise, like lightsabers, blasters, helmets and other replicas, but I think these specific items deserve a separate article, which will hopefully be published very soon.
