While I'm not thrilled the first Sabine Hasbro announced ended up being a deluxe figure instead of a standard TVC figure or an unlock w/ the Ghost & an animated mural card... I've gotta say, Sabine looks great and I love everything they've included in the set. We're bound to see some double dipping here, and I'd assume she will almost certainly eventually come on a standard TVC card w/o the Loth cat, bag, & spray can. I'm excited to finally get her in the realistic 3.75" line. I hope we eventually get a long-haired version of her, or maybe one where she is riding the speeder bike from the trailer but I am in for now. This was one of the more exciting reveals for me yesterday, besides the Ghost itself.

Post by: Matt_Fury on July 23, 2023, 12:06 PM: I agree Ryan. Great looking figure and I like the Lothcat. Is this really a deluxe figure though?

Post by: Rob on July 23, 2023, 02:01 PM: Anything is a deluxe figure now if you include a couple of super cheap accessories.

Remember when deluxe figures meant a Wampa with a cave for Luke to hang upside down, or a glider for the Ewok, a full sail barge cannon?!

Post by: Nicklab on July 23, 2023, 02:24 PM: I guess the magic number is 7 accessories and you get to call yourself a deluxe figure!

My one critique of this set? The helmet looks oversized. A swappable head and helmet might have been the way to go here.

Post by: CorranHorn on October 7, 2023, 09:07 PM: Sabine arrived two days earlier than Amazon said. Great figure overall, except for the oversized helmet. but there is definitely not enough value here to justify it as a deluxe figure at $27.99.
Title: Re: 2023 TVC Deluxe Sabine Wren
Post by: Jedi Idej on October 7, 2023, 09:50 PM: I ordered from HasbroPulse in mid-August and this or last week from Amazon, figuring I'll cancel the laggard. Saw that the Amazon order has an eta of 10/10. Lately all of my HasbroPulse orders have come from Illinois and have taken 7-8 days. Since it's already 10/7...sorry HasbroPuse.
