What a weird situation.  I’m quite happy to not be obsessively checking the app anymore.

Yeah, I'd love a behind the scenes accounting for why Target bothered to cancel all of the pre-orders, not change any pricing, but then it seems sufficient quantities showed up at retail in the following weeks.  Maybe they've got some kind of screwed up pre-order / shipping algorithm but this seems to have done nothing other than annoy the crap out of collectors with no upside for Target. 

I'm glad it seems to have all worked out for everyone, but geez, this could have been handled a lot better.

I’ll be honest, I found both arcs to be fairly uninteresting.  I know it was late at night, but I kept nodding off in the Cad Bane one. 

The only interesting part is Ventress’ reanimation scene made me look up why she had died, etc.  That was a novel I never read and didn’t understand her tie to Quinlan Vos.

They’ve got to find more interesting characters and more interesting plots to drive these around.  Do this with Saw or some of the background characters in Andor/Rogue One.

This has been popping in and out of stock this morning (at least in the Minneapolis area).  After a few times getting it in to my cart and losing it, I finally managed to snag one (at full price) for delivery tomorrow. 

Hopefully those still looking for one get lucky too with more stock arriving in stores.

That is impressive.  I've got 2700 figure "items" (tracked by UPC - individually carded and multipacks) so I'm guessing the actual number of figures is probably in the low 3000s.  And I've bought pretty much everything that has come out, so you must be doing some serious army building.  Most impressive.

I know its not TVC, but Disney has to come out a droid 4-pack or two.  I'd love to have a Mina Rau droid 4-pack of B2-EMO and the droids he was playing tag with.  I'm sure they could put together some cool Yavin 4 packs as well. 

I was looking at all the background stuff at Yavin 4 and just drooling about all the cool supply skiffs, welders, crates, cargo pods, etc.  It will probably have to come from the customizer community, but I'd love a Yavin 4 playset that has tons of this stuff.  If Hasbro were to do it they could do it like the BoBF throne room set, but instead of bottles, and pillows, and goofy crap I'd like crates, ladders, hoses, etc.  I'd love a couple of figures bundled in that are workers with welders that I can set on top of my X-Wing, U-Wing, etc. in my hangar setup. I know back in the day we got a little of this with crew shuttles, etc., but I'd love a lot more hangar accessories.

I want these guys too.



I would think with all of these troopers there is enough existing tooling (Solo Mudtrooper) that for the most part all they would need to do is create a bunch of heads to pop on.  Maybe the partial Stormtrooper armor would be more work, but create one body with a bunch of heads.

Still as I watch the serious drama playing out across both seasons of Andor, I’m reminded that this show is taking place in the same universe inhabited by Jar Jar Binks and the Ewoks :lol:

I think there is room for both - goofy kid oriented stuff and semi-serious Andor-like stuff.   I know Mando and BoBF weren't meant to be serious, but the level of storytelling in Andor is orders of magnitude better than what we're seeing in Ahsoka, Acolyte, Mando, BoBF, etc.  I know some love Filoni, but Andor is a great example of what can happen when you turn over the keys over to someone else who has real skills.

I also love that there were no Jedis, no Nightwitches, no force sensitive anything (other than the force healer that was more of a hero finder), no magic planets with a special force vergance that can create force wielding people, no genetically engineered people with extra powers, no Joseph Campbell samurai or bear/cub mythos, etc.   This was just plain old rebels fighting plain old dictators with kick ass characters in a kick ass story.  Sure there is some Joseph Campbell hero's journey stuff, but there isn't anything supernatural about Cassian and the rebels.

Please, please Lucasfilm make more of this - including things like Rogue Squadron, etc. with non-Jedi on great adventures.

After watching season 2 - a few more things I'd love to be added to the list.

- Kleya
- General Draven
- 4-pack of ISB raiding group with partial Stormtrooper armor


I'm good with the current U-Wing and Imperial Shuttle, but this show gives them a reason to re-release or redo.  If they redo the Imperial Shuttle I'd love to see the Imperial ISB paint job that they had in the Coruscant raid
