2023 TVC Boba Fett's Starship

[Rob]

Not quite the amazing sale I was holding out for, but Amazon has the Starship for $187... I had $105 on an Amazon gift card, so I tossed it in and after tax picked it up for $100.  It was still really $200, but it seemed like a good time to go for it.

I saw a review and the ship is just different enough for me to consider picking one up.  The Boba Fett figure is amazingly good, but it will most definitely get a carded release.  Hell, they said the only way you could get the Mando with a soft goods cape would be the Razor Crest and they re-released him in the rescue pack!

I just got mine and to what you're saying, I'm really underwhelmed by how light the difference is.  When I really run out of space, this will probably be the first thing I sell.  I also have a wing that doesn't seem to want to sit flat... gotta try to figure that out.

Here's their promo photo...


Here's what it looks like next to the regular release:

I do think the colors pop a bit more, so I'd probably sell the previous one if I need the space. But I think when I get my new display shelves (for vehicles), I might display one in flying mode and another in the "put Captain Solo in the cargo hold" configuration. The price sucked, no two ways about it.

They need to sell that stand separately.  I got a third-party one off of EBay and it was trash.

I only have the previous TVC version and neither of its wings turn fully upright on their own without assistance and are both slightly limp when the ship is on the display stand. ( )

I like the decor on the new one, but I don't have space for a second version and still can't justify the $200 for it, especially since Hasbro didn't fix the wings.

It's down to $171 on Amazon and I cashed in a bunch of credit card points for an amazon gift card so I picked this up for free along with a copy of the first Spider-Man PlayStation game for the boys.

It gets here today.

I sold mine.  I complained about it before, but the paint apps just weren’t different enough for me.

I was on the fence about getting this.  In fact I had originally preordered it, but ultimately cancelled that order.  It just seemed like Hasbro was taking advantage.  So when the nomad Boba Fett figure went up for preorder on it's own?  I ordered that and I feel okay about skipping this particular release.
