Oops, Toys ‘R’ Us Is Selling Star Wars: The Force Awakens Toys Early

Chad H, from Maple Ridge, British Columbia, shared these photos with Rebelscum of a Millennium Falcon MicroMachine playset (that unfolds into a Jakuu desert port scene) he was able to purchase from his local Toys “R” Us. And from the looks of it, the Falcon wasn’t the only The Force Awakens toy this store was selling well ahead of the official launch next month. Are those some new Nerf toys hanging on a peg as well?
