I've started picking up some of these. Wish those Target exclusives weren't so expensive on the secondary market.

Something to counter the HISS? Could be a VAMP or MOBAT...
I've kind of gotten into this line recently. Wish some of those Target line figures weren't so expensive on the secondary market. Maybe they need an Archive line?

« on: May 4, 2023, 11:11 AM »It was up a few minutes early. I thought I'd read they were charging like $90 or $100 for this and it was listed at $69.99. So that's nice I guess.
Disney has it up for $89.99... so when I saw this, I went to Pulse.

Disney Parks Droid Factory / Re: 2023 Droid Factory R2-S4M (ROTJ 40th Anniversary)
« on: April 26, 2023, 01:10 PM »It's good to see one of these releases is an on screen droid. I appreciate the holiday droids, but I want onscreen droids to get greater consideration for figures.
Agreed. I wish they would release more and not just astromechs. They have the best sculpts for LOMs, Threepios, CZs and RA-7s. I know they've already released 4-LOM, but there are so many others they can do.

I saw that Return of the Jedi will be showing in select theaters for about a week (4/28-5/4). There're 3 near me that will be showing it. Might have to catch it.

« on: April 23, 2023, 11:16 AM »EE has a free shipping code for orders over $35, and you can find that right in the masthead. I ordered a couple Piett figures and used TVC Stormtroopers to get it over the line for free shipping. Win win.
I just see the FreeShip59 code on the masthead. Weird.

TV-9D9 / Re: The Mandalorian - Season 3 (SPOILERS possible)
« on: April 20, 2023, 11:27 AM »
It was interesting how things came together in the end, but I kind of wished a couple episodes were more coherent (The Convert and Guns for Hire)... more along the lines of Andor, where they can focus on different characters arcs within an episode (and how its spread out through the season) instead of bookending the episode with Djarin and Bo-Katan with the actual purpose of the episode.
Also, jet pack fuel limits were definitely a plot device this season. In The Foundling, it was an issue to go find the bird, but in the finale, Axe Woves just flies off into space and to a ship in orbit with no issue.
That said, I still enjoyed things.
