Walmart Planograms unearthed by Yakface.com confirm separate skus for Micro Machines, Black Series Titaniums and what I am assuming are Hot Wheels, including multi-ship packs and deluxe sets. Looks like mini ship collectors will be spoiled for choice.

You know, when it comes to merchandise and content, this current era of Star Wars is almost making the post-Sith years seem like the "Dark Times"...

Did you see that First Order Trooper head playset on the side of box? That'll look mighty fine next to the old
OT Stormtrooper set

I had that, the Threepio and two other "non-helm" playsets, which were Hoth and Dagobah.
That was twenty years back, too!

Do we have a thread for the Disney diecast vehicles? They look alright but the x-wing is 5 and a half inches long compared to the action fleets 7 and a half..ish.
So they won't work in the same displays, but besides trade me (which has a few for $20 ish) have these been in Nz shops?

As far as I know, those vehicles are still Disney Store exclusives

I Suggest you snap up the ones on trade me if your interested it looks like the ties are very rare though.
From what i gathered from people saying in reviews and the lack of stock.
But if you want a really good b-wing this looks like the place.
I'm just disappointed there still isn't a action fleet scale or close enough.
*waits for 3d printers* lol
Sadly i don't see these being cheap on ebay because of the diecast.
and they seem to look much better than the hotwheels at $15?

Fishpond has them, but prices are in the $40+ range.
