I'll have to go dig out my Dark Empire comics but I believe there was supposed to be a cannon in that storage space.

IMO, It's nice to have some surprises.

I totally get your point, and generally I agree.  But they had a very lackluster livestream and then drop this information a few hours before the pro-order went live.  Why not give us a little time to build hype?

That being said, I missed the opening of the window, and just now went in and put in my order.  Went through just fine.

After over a decade of really nice super-articulated figures, I just can't go back to 5-POA.

That’s really sad.

First Ray Stevenson, and now Carl Weathers. It's crazy that the Star Wars Mandoverse has now lost two major actors in less than a year. Neither of them are really roles that could be easily recast. The characters are both critical too, so they can't just abandon them. It will be really interesting to see how their deaths affect the trajectory of the Mandoverse.

Some villain kills Greef Karga in an attack on Nevarro.  Mando and Grogu go on a revenge tour taking out the baddies.  Tie it to Book of Boba Fett season 1 and have the bad guys who were directing the Pykes.

Jeff, the backers made Hasbro over $10,000,000 richer plus the interest.  The cost to Hasbro for the Sabine/Chopper two pack is not $50, but much less.  Even if it cost them $1,000,000 from their $10,000,000 it would pay off in a lot of good will.

The only pipeline reveals I'm excited about are Cobb Vanth and Ahsoka the White.

The Rex is awesome!
