Seriously this whole thing makes me feel like I'm taking crazy pills. Tamashii Nations premiering what would be the biggest news in the history of SH Figuarts with only a small lousy picture of a Yoda silhouette on the blog that they use to promote Tamashii Features? Does that seem the smallest bit likely? They made an entire separate page for their stand promotion, and have had that linked on their front page for months. They put more effort teasing Daft Punk than they supposedly have for these fictitious Star Wars figuarts.

Meanwhile, the link on their front page to the blog post where the Yoda picture originated, specifically says

Introduction of [soul Features, VOL.6] SHFiguarts special effects new charge
Developer diary personnel to deliver the latest information from the field! It is the introduction of the new person in charge this time

And if you look at the page it's clearly introducing a guy who works at Bandai called "Mr Y", with that Yoda silhouette avatar, talking about how he is in charge of creating the effects pieces, with examples and promises of new ones to be seen at Tamashii Features next month.
