New Star Wars Galactic Heroes Animated Series To Aim for Tots

IESB.net is reporting confirmation of a new Star Wars animated television series based on the popular Galactic Heroes line of toys from Hasbro.

Much like the Hasbro toys, the target audience for the new show will be Pre-School to Kindergarten aged children. Reportedly, a director has been hired and pre-production is underway, under the working title (more likely a code name), "Squishies".

No mention is made as to whether such a series will be aired on Cartoon Network, which currently airs the animated Star Wars: The Clone Wars TV series.

HasbroToyShop Easter Discount

HasbroToyShop.com has issued a promo code good for 20% off all merchandise. The code is good until April 4, 2010. Just enter Easter20 upon checkout to get the savings.

This might be a good chance to pluck any Legacy Build-A-Droid Star Wars figures you may still need, as they've dried up at retail and certain repacks are coming around with different droid parts. It could be your last chance to complete your collection before the original figure runs sell out.

Toys R Us FREE LEGO Chrome Stormtrooper Figure Bonus

Toys R Us starts the new week with a bonus for LEGO collectors. Both in stores and online, any LEGO purchase of $11.99 or higher will earn you a FREE Chrome Stormtrooper mini-figure. That basically amounts to ANY Star Wars LEGO purchase, since none of the Star Wars items are under $11.99 . But, the quantity is not limited in the advertisement. So, if you ring up items separately, you should be able to get multiple Stormtroopers. Online however, you'll still be stuck for shipping charges and it's one free Stormtrooper per qualifying order. So, you'd have to make multiple orders and get stuck with multiples shipping charges to get multiples online.

Early in the day, the Toys R Us website had the Stormtrooper up for individual sale for $2.99 by itself, without additional purchase required. This was corrected by lunchtime, however and it is not clear if orders made before that will be honored.
