New Imperial Assault Figures Bring Rebels and Star Wars Comics To The Tabletop

If you're not playing Fantasy Flight Games' Star Wars Imperial Assault board game, than you are missing out. The dungeon crawl board game has had a bunch of expansions based mostly on the original trilogy movies and now they are starting to dip into the new expanded universe of Star Wars Rebels and the Star Wars comics published by Marvel. Among the new arrivals are BT-1 and 0-0-0, the villain versions of R2-D2 and C-3PO from the comics and Hera Syndulla and Chopper from Star Wars Rebels.

First introduced in the Darth Vader comics, BT-1 and 0-0-0 serve the interests of the Galactic Empire with a special relish for destruction. 0-0-0 is a protocol droid specially equipped to interrogate and eliminate captives, while BT-1 possesses enough hidden firepower to destroy an entire squad of enemy soldiers. With their unique skills, you'll be able to field these two droids in any Imperial strike team with the release of the BT-1 and 0-0-0 Villain Pack.No matter where your Imperial Assault campaigns take you in the Star Wars galaxy, the Rebel heroes will have reason to fear to glowing red displays of BT-1 and 0-0-0. A new campaign Agenda mission challenges the heroes to rescue prisoners from an Imperial interrogation facility on Kessel—but if you fail to rescue the captives, you'll face BT-1 and 0-0-0 as villains throughout the rest of your campaign.

Hera Syndulla and her loyal astromech C1-10P are stoking the fires of resistance in a galaxy that's choking under the heel of the Empire. With the Hera Syndulla and C1-10P Ally Pack, you can bring the will to rebel into your games of Imperial Assault. In your campaigns, Hera may lead you to Tatooine in a desperate attempt to rescue Chopper from Imperial imprisonment. In any mission, Hera can quickly prove herself as an adept leader, calling the shots to keep your entire strike team on point. Chopper is also more than capable of handling himself in battle, using a variety of tricks and tools to knock your enemies back and keep you on top of any engagement.

Both figure expansions will hit stores in the second quarter of 2017.

Trick 'R Treat Stylized 6" Sam Vinyl Figure From Mezco

Trick 'r Treat is one of my favorite Halloween films, and thankfully the movie has found a cult status on home video after being dumped theatrically by Warner Bros. Mezco is releasing a new six inch figure of Sam, the enforcer of the rules of Halloween. Part pumpkin, part supernatural being, Sam shows no mercy to those who disrespect his holiday.

This Sam is presented in our signature super-deformed style. He may look child-like and dressed for trick-or-treating, but Sam is the personification of Halloween itself. He stands nearly 6" tall and features 5 points of articulation. He comes complete with his ever-present trick-or -treat sack, and his half-eaten translucent pumpkin lollipop. Sam is packaged in a specially die-cut window box suitable for display. Just remember, he can watch you from inside the box, so don't blow out your pumpkin until midnight.

You can preorder Sam now on the Mezco website for $23.

Lost Funko Pop Figures

I was really debating on if I should include these figures in Cool Stuff. On one hand, we're huge fans of the television show Lost and generally find Funko Pop figures to be cute. So for Funko to release Pop figures based on the characters in Lost, we should be excited. But unfortunately, the result is pretty disappointing. The image above comes from an official reveal on ComicBook.com.
