July 2012 - If you're a Star Wars fan, there's probably only one place you want to be come August 23rd -- Star Wars Celebration VI in Orlando, Florida! The four-day convention celebrating all things Star Wars will be a veritable Mecca for Jedi and Sith making the long pilgrimage, and will play host to a large number of Star Wars actors, actresses and behind-the-scenes creators. It will also play host to two exclusive Star Wars banks by Diamond Select Toys!
July 18, 2012 - Order 66 has finally been given -- it's time to send in the clones! Diamond Select's newest Star Wars vinyl bust bank is the infamous clone trooper Commander Cody, who served under Obi-Wan Kenobi until his betrayal was ordered by Emperor Palpatine. Measuring around 8 inches tall, this detailed vinyl depiction of the character is shipping to comic shops and specialty stores this Wednesday from Diamond Comics Distributors. Not only is it a great-looking bust, it's also a bank, with a slot on the back for your loose change and secret Death Star plans. It goes great with our Clone Trooper and Darth Vader banks, and is an amazing addition to any Star Wars collection!
