My problem isn't the choice of repack in principle, it's still the total lack of product for that show. 

Two Cassians one of which has a totally inaccurate imperial uniform, a clone trooper, Vel Sartha, and the droid from the Disney pack.  The second and final season is in the works and they've announced Dedra and a repacked K-2SO.  If I'm not mistaken that's all.  It's a horrible effort for such a phenomenal show.  The Acolyte is a hot mess that aired like 2 months ago and it already has gotten more unique figures.

Fair, and agreed. Andor/Rogue One are by far my favorite Disney-Era content, and for the most part any figures from those two are at the very top of my wishlists. It is definitely frustrating to see so little come out of them on Hasbro's end.

I guess this K-2SO does ultimately take up a spot in the line that could have gone toward a new figure... but my hope is that there are at least a few more figure reveals for Season 2 coming later this year, and that K-2SO just ended up taking the place of some other repack/rerelease. I guess that all remains to be seen though.

Shipping next week according to Jayson.

Pulse is now showing that, too. Jabba is also still sold out. I wonder how much additional stock Pulse will get after preorders are fulfilled? They still have the Throne Room set in stock, it seems like there may be some people who skipped the Throne Room originally that might get both if they are both available at the same time.

I love him. Almost no complaints with this one. I would have taken added rocker ankles to the Mando pack-in, but I am primarily buying this for the Blurgg. I think I will start with three, and if they ever really a second with Kuill, I can repurpose one or two to an Endor display.

It is GREAT to have beasts back in the line. Hopefully, some new Banthas & Dewbacks will follow this in the next two years.

Gimmie.

I love that they went back to the more standard looking Deluxe cards & blisters... but I am still not sure if this release is worth the price jump over a regular figure, or that anything here makes this figure "Deluxe". The figure itself looks great, though. I still want a version of Cobb without the armor, but I am really happy to finally get him in TVC. As for the cardback, I don't want to complain too much given that it is no longer just the plain boxed deluxe, but I'd rather have had a deeper multilayered blister on a standard-sized cardback. The larger cards don't fit as well in a carded display if you try to organize by VC#. Nothing in this large or "Deluxe" enough that it really needs a large blister to display.

Weird numbering choice for Din. I am definitely not overly excited for these two. The barbell hips, improved plastic for the darksaber, and new packpack are a nice upgrades and all... but none of them are really something I particularly needed or wanted this soon after their initial releases.

They could have at least given Bo Katan a new headsculpt w/ her longer Season 3 hair cut and given Din the two blasters he is pictured with on the card. (I think Nick mentioned this too in the SDCC thread.) These just feel lazy.

Why must they add an army builder figure in a playset.  She even bragged that they specifically do that!

So you'll string together a very long hallway at $60 a pop. 

Like 4 for example... 

This one looks really good, not quite an OT-era Star Destroyer/Death Star Hallway, but it will make a decent stand-in. I like that they made the lights swappable. The doors look awesome, especially when compared to the Nevarro cantina this feels like one of the better diorama sets. I am also in the pro-generic-army-builder-pack-in camp. Since I likely already have a few of the pack-in figure loose (or close enough), it makes for a nice extra carded figure if I don't feel compelled to buy multiple sets.

I ended up preordering four sets to start, but before December I may drop that down to two and then pick up a few more sets later when it eventually goes on sale.

I haven't done any of these 3rd Party toys since I don't really do much Vintage collecting... But with the Hasblab Cantina coming I am thinking about picking up that ball speeder for the shelf. TLDR on the drama, is Stan Solo's site the "safe" one to order from or is that the one run by the con-artist sounding fellow?

Nice. I'm in on this one. It's one of the better Halloween releases, it looks like it could fit into a regular shelf in jawa junkyard or something too.
