I like the fact that they're generic so you could buy multiple packs if you wanted to fill out a hangar scene or whatever. 

Agreed, I'm hopeful that we will finally get a carded Trapper Wolf and Carson Teva with a cost effective kitbash.

I almost wish they would have made this a bonus 4-pack and included a bunch of different bonus heads, helmets, etc. where they encouraged you to buy three packs and mix and match.

Armorer’s Forge?   That seems a bit random.

That would make sense but also when had Jayson ever been wrong about this stuff.   Maybe it’ll be like last year where there’s the Ghost but there’s also Jabba’s Palace as a regular, expensive release.

That'd be cool.  $450 HasLab Death Star and $255 pre-order cantina.

This was just going to be the reveal, correct?  Or were they going to start taking orders right away?  Seems odd to delay it if they were just planning a reveal.

I always thought these were cool but never picked up more than a couple due to the cost.  Maybe I'll need to see if I can pick up a bunch more if the pricing has gotten more affordable.

Depending on your perspective I guess its good news for the Star Wars line.  Maybe this will mean less 4" line and more TVC.

Yeah that would entirely be a question of what your standards are.  If they’re low, you could certainly do it.

I wouldn't say my standards are low, but I think these things should be toys and not statues.  Ideally you find some balance of both, but things like light up moving chin guns on an AT-AT, and shooting NERF bullets are not screen accurate but pretty cool from a toy perspective.  This version of the N1 definitely seems a bit chunky, but I'll be interested to see how it works from a toy perspective with TVC figures to see if scratches the toy itch.

I certainly don't want the TVC figures slopping around in a giant opening where they can't really sit properly or where a droid/Grogu can't fit right.  Looking at it I'm mostly worried about how the droid/Grogu socket is going to work with TVC figures.  The TVC version handled this fairly well with the different inserts, although I wish you could have fit a whole R5 droid in there and not just a dome.
