Update from the PASWCS: Medallions Shipping Soon!
The sale is going very well and we're meeting our goals. We've already sold more than half our run. Thank you for making our fundraiser a success. A few days ago we were invited by Operation Ward 57 to visit Walter Reed Army Medical Center on July 5th to distribute medallions to the veterans in Ward 57. We're extremely grateful to have this opportunity! However it does force us to delay our shipping plans. Our new packing day will be July 12. To learn more about Operation Ward 57, please visit their website. The members of PSWCS hope you will consider supporting this worthy cause through purchasing these medallions. You can place your order right here!

Sandtrooper Dennis Reports:
 “Hey Troopers, today on my toy run, I spotted Saga Legends figures in the new packaging at both the Target in Highland Park, IL and the Toys R Us in Gurnee, IL. Still no sign of the ESB wave or AOTC wave in the Legacy line. In fact the Toys R Us in Gurnee still has B-Wings, Lars Homestead and BMF's at full price! That's all for now. Later Troopers.” |

Sandwatch Sneak Peek: Clone Wars Y-Wing!
 We have another great Sandwatch Sneak Peek this afternoon, as we've spotted new Republic ships that are incoming. Check out the packaged and loose shots of the Clone Wars Y-Wing Fighter. The package converts to a diorama, maybe this is why they are charging us much more money for the newer Clone Wars version. Perhaps we would all prefer electronics vs. a cardboard diorama?
