New Andor teaser poster is out on Disney Movie Insiders.

The inclusion of the Stormtrooper helmets is just weird, and I agree that the $26 price point is a total ripoff.  They should have left out the two helmets and cut the price by $8.   The helmets aren't worth $4 each.

Nice.  Thanks for the link!

Tough choice for a Haslab campaign on multiple fronts.  It sounds like having a generic Inquisitor lightsaber would be hard to pull off, and nobody knew who Reva was when this started.  Even if they had done the launch later I still don't think Reva was that interesting of a character and thus the lightsaber isn't all that iconic. 

I'm not sure any amount of marketing support from the Hasbro team would have pushed this over the finish line, but you can clearly see the difference between the GI Joe promotions and the energy behind those Haslab offerings.  I'm not sure anyone here was even close to on the fence about this.

So cool that my new house is about 18 miles from Kennedy Space Center!  The kids love watching the Rocket launches and SpaceX putting up a Falcon 9 roughly every 10 days is not going to get old anytime soon!

Very cool.  Someday I want to see a rocket launch.  Every time I'm in FL I consider it, but then realize that many launches are usually delayed by days, weeks, months so waiting around for one to happen is a serious commitment if you're just visiting. 

I've been to Kennedy Space Center a couple times and its always a sweet science and history hardcore fest.  I remember going there as a kid in the late 70's right before the Columbia took off for the first time and attending a few presentations on all the new Space Shuttle tech.  I can still remember them turning off the lights, taking a blowtorch to the ceramic shield tiles, watching them glow in the dark when superheated, and then only a minute or two later picking it up with their bare hands.

The project is officially unfunded with a final tally of 1,413 backers.  Just a wee bit shy of the goal of 5,000.

Was there ever an explanation as to how Dr. Brenner (Papa) survived S1?  Seemed like he was a goner, but I guess we never saw the body... In this season he had a scar on his face, but I don't recall if he had that in previous seasons.  I was wondering if there were clones of him about.

I suppose Dr. Owens could possibly be alive then since we never saw him killed.  It seemed like one of the military guys stepped into the room to "finish" him before it cut to another scene.  While it seemed that the military wanted to eliminate anyone associated with 11 and Nina, it might be possible that they want him alive now to find El.

Did we officially see Papa die, or just get shot a bunch of times?  I was surprised to see him back as well, and if we didn't see his corpse on fire then I think there is a fair chance he'll be back for the next season.

I can't think of a weapon that would work, unless its some crazy Star Wars Nerf thing.  But then you run the risk of people thinking $250 for a Nerf gun???  I passed on the $120 Mandalorian Amban-phase rifle because it was too expensive and I love Nerf.

I'm sure we've debated it in other threads, but I'm not sure what 6" vehicle/mega set I would be willing to drop $250+ on that was more than just a pile of figures.  The problem with 6" vehicles is that they're just so damn big I'm not sure I would get any just for space reasons.  I've got nearly every 6" figure, but passed on the TIE as it was too big.  I got the $140 snowspeeder, but have struggled to find a place to display it.  I like the speeder bikes, landspeeder etc, but those are smaller $40 items.

Maybe a Max Rebo band and instruments set, but that is mostly a big figure set.

I'm not interested in a 6" X-Wing or A-wing or N-1 Naboo Starfighter, or anything else that I can think of.
