I bet if these sell well, a Bluurg could be on the table.

Also, looking at larger pictures, it looks like the Troopers have been upgraded with rocker ankles.

They're decent to good. Would've been nice if they beefed up the Ahsoka set. I'll even settle for the rock the lamp is sitting on.

Off-topic -- loving these TVC card art. I hope Hasbro has them archived and releases a book of the images.

.  Hasbro went for the layup here instead of taking a shot.  And frankly, for the rollout of a new assortment / "expression", they should have been shooting for the lights with something completely new.  Even if they had included something like the carrying case that the Stormtroopers unloaded the E-WEB from would have been that extra little bit of effort that would make this set shine.

We shouldn’t be surprised by Hasbro taking the easy way out. This has been their MO for sometime with new lines/SKUs - first wave or two will be simple rehashes they can quickly pump out. If it succeeds they make new items. If it fails they say there was no support when it should have been obvious they shouldn’t have started with all rehashes. Rinse and repeat.

Might get the Ahsoka set for the birdie and cloak but will be a tough cost to swallow

I like them. They could do more with these, but maybe they will if the line is successful.  Think about it this way - you can get 16+ of these sets and still not pay what you would have for the Rancor...

Didn’t they just tell us they’d be available at 1:00 eastern time?  If they sell out before then a lot of people are going to be pissed.

Yes, but they goofed.  Then Walmart'll cancel orders and more people will be pissed.

Well, with names like "SW VIN LAGUNA" you pretty much need to follow Jayson to know that they're available.

My orders are still active.  But it’s yet another instance of Walmart screwing things up with an exclusive.

I got pre-orders in for each one....not too confident since they are still using codenames.

So maybe it would be safest to order again at noon and cancel one of them later on…

I'll see what happens. If they update my current preorders to the correct names, I'll leave them be.

It said "shipping today," when I ordered, but now it's successfully updated to "Shipping, arrives by Thu, May 26" on the product detail page as well as my order details, so I'm hopeful that it'll just update without a cancellation. Fingers ******* crossed.
