The Force Awakens / Re: TFA 3.75" Jungle/Space/Snow/Desert Line

Noticed that the Walmart report at Yakface has $6.93 price stickers on these figures.  That's cheaper than what's been reported for Target and TRU ($7.99).

Also, it is sounding more and more like these assortments (B3445 Jungle/Space and B3963 Snow/Desert) are indeed the "basic" figure line.  Those holding out hope for slightly cheaper $6 figures with no "build-a-whatever" part may be out of luck...  unless they are planning cheaper versions for overseas or the dollar store markets.

They have to have a line to roll out all the new Rebels figures though, right? They wouldn't do a FF launch without new Rebels figures would they? I am starting to think that might be a real possibility now.  :(

That is one freaking amazing cast they have put together. This is a long way from jake/Hayden grade schmoes. Major props!

2613
Ah, so this is the "Star Wars 7 Class I Deluxe Vehicle Assortment". Any idea what the price point is on this segment?

2614
Just saw the pics...nice, very nice. I am all in as expected. Good news on BB-8 too.

If the rumor is that we will see multiple waves come FF, hopefully we get a look at the rest tomorrow or soonish. Figure it will be the usual suspects like Poe, Phasma, etc but the Tie Pilot and Flametrooper could be awesome.

How are they supposed to sit on these things? Are these figures SA or something? T-crotch? Ball jointed hips?

(I can't see the pics so good at work)

Got it, thanks. I think some of the armored stuff was just posted over at JTA...very gimmicky.

The stuff they've shown so far looks pretty cool, I'm hoping we get a good look at some of the vehicles next.

Hopefully all the sweaty nerds will be grasping for these things come MM giving me a better shot at the 6" guys.  ;D

Thanks guys, I totally get it now. I had that Panthor thing and can still recall the velvety exterior.

I received my non-exclusive Bruce the Shark from Super 7 today, never have seen this in a store. I think I like the bloody one better.

I really did not need another chewbacca that looks that close to the original. At least he could come with a new coat or something.  :D

2621
And Snoke! Nothing on Snoke either...they do a good job keeping the cgi stuff under wraps.

Nothing designed by Jack King Kirby is ridiculous.

2623
Yeah, still not sold on if those are the real deal or customs. Finn looks pretty good from the neck down but that face does not look right somehow. Almost like a Ken Doll...too smooth and generic. The Kylo shots are so close up that it looks a little crude, but maybe it comes off better at a distance.

I definitely think we will see the ones they showed off as prototypes come FF. That could be almost a wave itself, except they are coming 6 per now, so maybe they will double up on a few of them or BB8 gets his own box and the Stormtrooper is #6. There are at least 10-11 figures beyond that which have been strongly rumored or teased, so if they wanted to they could crank out another wave or two and have multiple waves on the shelf on 9/4. That's kind of what I'm hoping for anyway.

Bought an AT-DP for $13 at Walmart over lunch...it was the last on the shelves anywhere around here.

Also picked up a Plo Koon and Skiff Lando for $3 a piece.

Stormtroopers on the beach for Rogue One.

That troop lander is pretty cool. Gotta make a new toy of that.
