That makes sense if they can get a big financial write-off by yanking it.

Hopefully they're allowed to add it back at some point after all the financial monkey business is done.  Willow really isn't all that good, but they should still keep it in the catalog.

Jayson was doing a push on Yakface to tell people that were on the fence to go ahead and back it, and if they change their mind to cancel it later.  The momentum will start building more that way.

Thanks Jeff.  I totally forgot that his stapler-gun blue lightsaber got destroyed. 

I probably have to re-watch the last season and refresh my memory on a lot of this leading in to Ahsoka.

I took a few minutes to look at the new figures in the unlocks and noticed something unexpected with Ezra. 

I'm not an expert on every Ezra figure ever released and every episode of Rebels, but it looks like the Ezra figure includes a DL-44 Han Solo style blaster as well as a "regular" lightsaber.  I don't think any figure of his has ever had those accessories and I don't recall him ever using that type of blaster (or really any blaster other than a stolen imperial rifle) or lightsaber other than his own funky customer blaster/lightsaber combo.  Unlit I think it looks like a manual staple gun.

The figure is on a Rebels card, but I don't think these accessories are right for his Rebels adventures.  Maybe he shows up in the Ahsoka show using these items, but it seems off for Rebels.

The other figures shown - Hera, Kanan, and Zeb all seem to be accurate to their Rebels characters though.

I just figure the more unique figures in the set, the more carded collectors FOMO will pick up.

Agreed.  There might be a bit of a snowball effect if we can start picking up some more backers and more carded figures.  Those carded guys have helped fund my collection by selling off unique cards of mostly repacked figures (Yakface).

The unlocks are all gravy to me.  I'm just glad it funded.

I think they'll make all these figures for retail anyhow, just maybe not on the funky card backs and maybe with different accessories.

New Ahsoka and Mando Season 3 poster.  I like the Ahsoka one.  The Mando one isn't so good.

Mine showed up today.  I was hoping he might have some glow in the dark elements, but no dice.

On a related note its interesting to see that Hasbro Pulse ships their goodies padded with an eco-friendly geometric paper insert.  Kinda like bubble wrap.  Pretty cool, and a lot more ecological than the air bubble padding.

Got my Luke/Grogu from Amazon today.  $43.  That is straight up robbery, and I'm an idiot for paying it.

It would take a junior programmer a couple of minutes to get a data feed on an hourly basis and incorporate those numbers in to a global total.

I'm not sure if Hasbro is being devious or is just incompetent.

163
No, but I just got a Red Card payment failure on Luke and Grogu so I had to change my payment type just like I did with the Tusken.

WTH????

Last week I caved - I tried to buy the retro collection Henry Jones Sr, but it was register locked so I couldn’t buy it.  Went to Target this morning and saw him again along with the Last Crusade Sallah and was surprised to see them priced differently.  Senior was $14.99 and Sallah was $11.99.  Why?!?!

Got these both from a Target pre-order this week.  They were priced differently online too.

I got the same email and ended up changing my payment to a regular Visa.  The Red Card discounts stayed in place though.
