TV-9D9 / Re: Disney+ Pricing

Yeah, I just get it for Star Wars too.  Sure I watch some of the Marvel series, but I don't really feel I need to watch those.

I'm tempted to switch to the ad based version and save $36 a year.  I get ads in Hulu and some of the Prime stuff and its not the end of the world.

It is a lot of dough for watching a new live-action series every year or so.
I thought about that too but ads in the middle of something like Andor is the only thing I’d consider worse than the price hike…

We have the ad version of Hulu and had ads run during Shogun. It is the WORST. Not only does it take you out of the moment but the contrast (both visual and audio) is soooo jarring going from darkly lit cinematographic scene w/ quiet score or dramatic moment to a solid bright pink screen with someone yelling something at you trying to sell you a phone. I couldn't do that for Andor (I'm surprised we did it for Shogun).

We are in a similar boat. We mostly watch Star Wars & Marvel on D+, very little on Hulu, & almost nothing on ESPN+ (If ESPN+ didn't blackout every single game our local teams play, I'd feel like we got a lot more value out of it.)

Streaming is now just as bad as cable used to be.

So what Hasbro would do is put one Tonnika in the 3 included figures, and then the second as the third tier, which would de facto be a repaint anyway. Everybody wins?

That is so evil, I can totally see Hasbro doing this.

Imagine if none of them are the Tonnikas!  :-X :'(

This is probably more likely.

On Rebelscum, Jayson further clarified the 6 figures contain no main characters, as well as saying 3 of them are aliens...but not how those 3 break down among included or unlocks.

I'm hoping the "three unlockable figure tiers" are three more all new figures as well, so we get a total of six.

I don't see how repaints, repacks and resculpts would drive orders.

While I would love for all of the HasLab pack-ins to be Cantina Alien weirdos we don't already have, the way Jayson only called out three of the figures to be "all new" leads me to believe that we're getting a combo of all-new, never made before characters and some new resculpts (hopefully for things like Wuher or Hammerhead and not wasting slots on resculpts that would sell in the basic figure line like Old Ben or Farmboy Luke).

I hope I'm wrong and we're getting 6-8 first time cantina dudes, but I'm way too pessimistic to believe that could happen (even in a HasLab).

Deep down I think you're right.

But I hope you're wrong.

Imagine the catastrophe if they got to a tier for making one Tonnika Sister and not the other.
