The 2013 New York Comic Con has brought the Rebelscum team back to the Big Apple to give you the complete rundown on all the major Star Wars licensees and events at the East Coast's biggest pop culture event of the year. As always, you can find all the non-Star Wars coverage on Cool Toy Review.
ABRAMS BOOKS
The Frames You Want at The Price You'll Love
Abrams Books' Star Wars: Frames is a follow-up to the visually stunning, limited edition release book set featuring George Lucas' personally selected stills from all six films in the Star Wars saga. This more affordable version of Frames --usually referred to as a cheap edition, but in this instance is by no means cheap-- features the same 1,472 photos (368 pages per book) in two hardcover books (previously six) housed in a cardboard cover (instead of a wooden box) as the $3,000 version released two years ago. Frames is set for release November 5, 2013 with an MSRP of $150. Follow the above link to see what’s inside.

KOTOBUKIYA
Mara Jade ARTFX Bishoujo Revealed!
The beautiful Mara Jade Bishoujo Statue headlines Kotobukiya's New York Comic Con 2013 booth, while their ARTFX+ line continues to grow in ranks with the addition of some incredibly weathered Sandtroopers, a finalized General Grievous and the announcement of Han, Chewy, Luke and Leia to the line.

TAMASHII NATIONS
The Perfect Model C-3PO
Tamashii Nations' had their perfect model, die-cast, sixth-scale C-3PO figure on display at New York Comic Con. While we've featured this piece before in a YouTube video review, we thought this was the perfect opportunity to showcase this amazing piece. The team at Tamashii informed us there are still limited quantities of the figure available for purchase and we're keeping our fingers crossed for the R2-D2 figure Tamashii teased at last year's NYCC.
