Selfie Series Dead?

Hasbro Pulse Customer Service FAQ says "we are no longer accepting new orders for Hasbro Selfie Series figures."

Got the same from Amazon - 11/20 for Revan, 11/20 for Chopper, and 11/24 for Hera.  I guess we see how accurate that ends up being...

Seems like this wave is starting to hit Amazon now too - just got a note for Krennic from Amazon and an updated arrival date of 11/15.

And just got the "approve delay" for Krennic.  Guess he won't be here today after all.  ::)

My Krennic shipped this afternoon.  Should be here by Friday.  Glad it was just a minor delay.

Why are Sabine's pistols blue and yellow?  Was it like that in the show or cartoon?

The Retro guns are overly simplified, but yes in the Ahsoka show she had one gun painted with yellow highlights and another with blue highlights. 

The TVC figure has the guns painted closer to the way they looked in the Ahsoka D+ show (I guess some of the $28 dlx tax went to those gun paint apps :P).

I'm still wondering when the Thrawn from the previous wave will turn up?

Amazon shipped my Thrawn pre-order yesterday, should be here today...

I wonder if it is meant to be from TBOBF and the back pack is for the Grogu?

Yeah, since all these figures are found in the Mandoverse I'd say that is supposed to be BOBF Luke. 

I'm interested to see the backs of the cards - do they have any figure/item cross-sells, info about the show they are from (aka ads for the Disney+ shows), or just a whole bunch of multi-language text and a UPC.

Even within the 3.75" lines of the past there have been clunkers that were way too short or way too tall.  Might as well wait to see these in comparison shots before getting too upset about scale.

Potential scale issues aside, so far I am not seeing anything that I need to buy.  Just more main characters that I already have...

I wasn’t sure where to ask this so I’m doing it here, maybe we need a new thread or forum section…

What’s the deal with these low articulation 4” Epic Heroes figures Jayson posted on IG this morning?

Are they part of the regular 3.75” line and represent a return to some level of 5-POA offerings in non-TVC packaging?  I’m trying to figure out if they’re something I’m collecting and at a glance they look like they would be.



I don't have any more details than Jayson shared, but it seems like they are a Star Wars attempt at what they have been doing with the Marvel line (see the 4" Epic Hero Series X-Men '97 figures as an example).

If they are like the Marvel/X-Men Epic Hero stuff, they will be slightly out of scale compared to all the existing 3.75" stuff.

TRU coming to Mall of America?  We usually hit MOA once or twice during the holiday shopping season so I'll have to check it out once it opens...  I think my last visit to a TRU store was in Hamilton, Ontario in 2018.

Seeing the slow drip of this wave at some of the local Target stores - Most of what I've seen is just 1-2 figures randomly per store.  Chopper/Hera at one Target, Hera/Sabine at another.


Also, these are starting to pop up on Amazon...  Marrok is the only one in-stock (thanks to Nick C. for the heads up)

Marrok -> https://amzn.to/463NLYn #sponsoredlink

Ahsoka -> https://amzn.to/3snTBWB #sponsoredlink
Morgan  -> https://amzn.to/3FKsJ6e #sponsoredlink
HK Droid -> https://amzn.to/3SoGNtL #sponsoredlink
Sabine -> https://amzn.to/3SvjO0e #sponsoredlink

I got those too.  I just need Thrawn as this point, and to figure out if there’s any on-screen reason to keep more then one of the HK droids in this color scheme.

Most of them seem to use the Retro scheme, which also better matches the way they looked in The Mandalorian.  This all-red one seems to be a bit unique.  I'm planning to buy a second and hold onto it for a bit before I decide to open it. 

I still think a 4-pack of these in that other more common color scheme seems like it would be a no brainer if I were running Hasbro SW team...
