Star Wars Rebels Saga Legends Figures

[Dave]

At least they picked reasonably good re-packs.  Hopefully when these cases hit the shelves the repacked stuff will sell through quickly so we can get more Rebels figures.

[Diddly]

I saw these at TRU last weekend although they were largely picked over. Only Rebels figs remaining were Ezra and Kanan, though they had plenty of the Legends figs. I did consider getting the 3PO/R2 animated set but passed for now.

How come I can't find Chopper from this new wave?

I've seen everything else multiple times... no sign of the little guy.

[Jayson]

Becuz Chopper rulz 

[Rob]

Apparently.  Although I realized I haven't seen the Inquisitor either, I have him because of the TIE advanced.

[Jeff]

Finally found the basic figures today.

Picked up Ezra, Kanan, and Inquisitor at Target and a fellow MN collector helped me out with Chopper. 

Hard to say which is more annoying - tiny Chopper for $7 or tiny Yoda for $10 in the Black Series.

[Rob]

It's been over a month and I STILL can't find Chopper anywhere.

WTF.

[JediJman]

It's been over a month and I STILL can't find Chopper anywhere.

WTF.

+1 +2 +3  No sign of him anywhere.

Glad to see I'm not the only one.  I wanted to get him for my Son for Christmas...no dice.

[Nicklab]

Chopper has been impossible to find here, too. Kallus and the Inquisitor were tough to find, but I found them at some point. But Chopper?  Never.

[McMetal]

I think I've seen maybe 3 Choppers on the pegs, all before Christmas...haven't spotted a single Rebels figure in weeks though. They really dried up quickly.

[Phrubruh]

I've only seen one Chopper and I grabbed it.

Picked up the AT-DP Pilot this weekend...  I went to Target for reasons I can't explain, and they had one of him and Gree.  Easy purchase to make for customizing bits.

Here's an odd thing I noticed on the AT-DP guy though...  His helmet and head are actually two pieces.  The helmet's glued to the head is all.  Why bother with the extra labor step in there, and two molds?  It's possible they plan to re-use the helmet (or head/mask piece even) for something, but what?  And why?  It seems it'd be more logical to do just a single piece I'd think.

Anyway, the other thing I've noticed...  I never bought a single carded 5 POA figure yet, but upon seeing the AT-DP Pilot in person, my goodness are they ****** mold pulls.  There are ejection marks, seams...  It's really roughly done, and a sign of poorer craftsmanship in the realm of injection molding.  Nothing that I can't clean up, just odd as I never have seen a figure this rough looking.  Even the 2-Pack of the McIG Droid and Devronian guy guy seemed quite cleanly done.

I believe the ATDP Pilot helmet comes with the Ezra figure as an accessory. Probably could have just as easily sculpted a generic guy under there if they were gonna reuse the helmet. Weird.

Edit: nope, from pictures I see they are 2 different sculpts. Curiouser and curiouser...
