That would be a cool idea about Kleya.  Especially if we can get the quality of writing we had with Andor.  Supposedly Tony Gilman said he was done with Star Wars after this season...

Also agree that Kino showing up on Yavin or something after the whole "I can't swim" thing would have been very lame.

Agreed on that.  Once Kino saw that he'd have to swim for it in order to survive, you can see the resignation in his eyes.  Pretty sure that the Empire went in and exterminated the prisoners who attempted to escaped to teach a lesson to the others.  Especially Kino since he gave the whole inspirational speech that led to the uprising. As we have learned from Rogue One and now Andor, not all heroes survive.

Saw a post on facebook that someone ordered this off the webpage early this morning (4 or 5 AM).  It's not in stock at the moment, but we'll see.

There was the other senator (Jebel) that was also in Rogue One, too, though he didn't have as many speaking parts as Palmo.  Yeah, it's nice to see some of those "cameos" from Rogue One make it in.

The closing montage was a nice touch, too.  It left Cassian with a happy ending.  Seeing Perrin end up with Runai Sculdun was interesting.  I was wondering what would happen to Mon's family, if the Empire would "kidnap" Perrin and Leida (who was married into an Imperial sympathetic family) and how that would influence Mon's life.  Perhaps something for a book.

I also wondered what happened to the Yavinian doodars that seemed to prey on the Rebels in the first couple episodes of the show...  It seemed like once more Rebels settled, there was no mention of them... just could have had a warning "don't venture out after dark" kind of thing.  Small things, but I agree with Jeff, A+

The one thing I learned today is that the Niamos song has been present a few times already in both seasons of Andor, just with different arrangements. 

Here's what Wookieepedia says about it:
Quote
A version of the song played in a brothel in the Leisure Zone on the planet Morlana One in 5 BBY when the human Cassian Andor visited the establishment in search of his sister.[S1E1] Later that year a more slowed down version was played during a party in the Chandrilan Embassy on Coruscant as senator Mon Mothma talked with her old friend Tay Kolma.[S1E7] In 4 BBY, a faster remix of "Niamos!" was played by a speaker droid at the Wedding of Stekan Sculdun and Leida Mothma at the Mothma Estate on the planet Chandrila.... [S1E3]

Probably could have been doing a Top Ten for each of the arcs so far.

Yeah, the only ones from the Acolyte I can see (I'm sure there might be more) worth doing are Jecki, The Stranger, Kelnacca, Torbin, and Vernestra.

But it's strange that we more figure from this show than Andor or Obi-Wan (or even Rise of Skywalker).

My order just got cancelled for "technical issues with the vendor" after I approved a delay a few days ago.  Listed out of stock on Target.   HASBRO, STOP THE DAMN TARGET EXCLUSIVES.  THE COMPANY IS INCOMPETENT AT STOCKING STUFF.

Same.

I bet they repost at a higher price point.

One I would put down on the Daryl DePriest Tier for Season 2 is the Oathkeeper. 

I know that some figures aren't very toyetic from this show, but we did get some senators in the RotS line 20 years ago.

Dave's list from Season 1 is still pretty good.  I think the only additions from season 2 would the new Imperial Troops... and maybe Mon Mothma in wedding gown with 200 shot glasses and DJ/Discoball Droid as accessories.

One thing I was thinking was, I'm surprised they didn't unpack an E-Web on those poor citizens... of course, that would have been gruesome.

I just was thinking Syril is starting to get it and then, one moment derails it.

I was somehow able to order everything, but it was confusing.  I was 10 minutes late getting in, was able to find Obi-Wan and the Stormtrooper re-issue off the front page.  Had a pain trying to find the multi-packs... had to individually search for them, but as I was searching for the Trooper 3-pack, the suggestion bar had the Stormtrooper below with a "sold out" note on it.  Put the multi-packs in the cart and checked out figuring I'd have to adjust my order for the Stormtrooper, but everything went through.

My guess on 375 is that it is Vader or Anakin since the first two trilogies (and Clone Wars, etc) are about his fall and redemption.  We'll see.

It is interesting to see they managed to get the new Hammerhead onto a standard card, w/ a standard bubble. It is almost like the regular version didn't need to be a Deluxe figure at all...

That extra hand, drinking glass, POTF2 homage blaster, and Saga 2006 homage spear must cost a lot more than we think...

Hasbro will read this and Momaw will be re-released on a standard card minus the homage blaster, spear, and extra hand.
