The blurrg looked AMAZING! Not so much the Forge. Happy Shin and Baylan are coming for TVC. Some of the pipeline reveals for 6” looked pretty sweet too.

….aaaand it’s funded!  :o

“Take that, Bainbridge scholars!”  :D

I have and a hate it because my wife does our taxes and sees how much I make on there. I’m selling a lot of Legos right now too and am going to come in high again this year.

I totally thought it was the opposite though - that it had been $600 but was raised to $20k.  :o

Isn’t the licensing fee a set # that is paid up front though? I always thought of it that way as opposed to “we have to send 10 cents of every dollar we make to Disney” so I figured they could relax the margins a little for the crowdfunding initiatives. Maybe I am all wrong on that though.

But you’re 100% right, they are pretty much boat racing the SW 6” crew. The Joe team just overall seems to have more of an eye for fine details and appreciation for things collectors actually want. It sounds corny but I genuinely think the difference is people working on something they love and are passionate about versus people just doing a job.

$50 cheaper than the Cantina, yet this one has electronics.  ::)

7850/9000

I wish the SW brand would get as much love and care as this line does!

Nice, would love two or three of these but will probably just settle for the one, barring a deep discount.

Just preordered the Mandalorian Shriek Hawk Trainers set at Walmart even though it was not supposed to go live til 10am EST.  :)

I’m wondering if Hasbro will announce VC310 and VC326 at SDCC?

According to Steve Evans, VC326 is the playset Mando Privateer. 

I'm starting to think VC310 will be KE4-N4 from the E-Wing fighter maybe?

When is that ship coming out? I never preordered one but would consider it on sale.

R5 and Pit Droids arrived today. Just makes me want an Amy Sedaris figure even more now though.

Have started buying some 6” prototype figures on eBay recently for kicks. Have a nice mix of different colored Resistance troopers now.

Did she mention the price?  ???

I received in the mail from Pulse today the Last Command 4-pack or whatever they are calling it with Mara and Luuuuuke. Also got a shipping soon notice for the RFT/Stormtrooper 2-pack. Lots of stuff hitting now…

Now that’s what I’m talking about!! Chef’s kiss 😚

I’m so tempted to get these but still have hope Hasbro might one day do them Retro style. They look great though.

Just got Kanan from Amazon and came straight here to say how impressed I am with this figure. It’s just a terrific all around realization of the character and very faithfully executed, from sculpt to paint apps, to accessories. A+  :)

Ezra is on the way, looking forward to his arrival!

On the other hand though, I'm not sure if it would matter in the long run - is anyone going to put anything from The Acolyte into their Top 25 list? #hmm  ???

Narrator’s Voice: “They would not.” 😄

Palpatine: Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?

Anakin: What, that Homeless Guy that lived in a cave?
