Other Toy Lines / Re: 2022: What Are You Collecting?
« on: October 18, 2023, 12:27 PM »
Finally sold off all my LJN Dune toys…almost finished dumping all my Pacific Rim NECA stuff too. Just started listing my NECA Prometheus stuff too, so the purge continues. really trying to just get down to Star Wars and some random stuff I love.

Got the new exclusive Vader from Target.com. Also grabbed another Cad Bane Cobb Vanth 2-pack I saw on clearance at Target for $16.79  :D

The Ahsoka wave is In Stock now at Amazon…I just picked up the HK Droid.

79
I picked up Ahsoka, Sabine and Ezra from GameStop tonight, now I just need the HK droid and I am done with this wave!  :)

I feel like this wave somehow jumped over the TCW wave that was announced previously. Not complaining but some places still have it listed for Jan…

Have seen two of last years figures at a couple of different GameStops now, 3PO and the Scout Trooper. Odd.

One thing working in its favor is there doesn’t seem to be a lot of fan bitterness or animosity around it like there was with the GR car. People just want it or they don’t.

I hope it makes it for everyone that wants one. Still hoping to get a FantastiCar out of one of these things someday too.  ;D

I’m starting to think this might not make it. The tiers are so lackluster that they offer little incentive at all for speculators. If they were unique figures like Galactus or the Sentinel had that would be one thing but no one is going to buy spare face plates without the figure itself. And if you have the figure you wouldn’t need the face plates.

Curious what the future holds if a second consecutive one of these fails…

Got a shipping soon email for this one this morning.

From where? I was debating canceling my Amazon order…

Smarter people than I around the internets have made the comparison to the Star Trek sparkly Transporter figures from years back and those were not popular at all, iirc. They were also a clear sign that the line was coming to an end in the near future. 😬

Was surprised to find all of these at my local Walmart today, along with Jesse and Fives. I was especially psyched to see Fives because he sold out before I could preorder him and has never come back into stock since then. (Have the page bookmarked and been checking daily) so he was an instant buy for me. Was nice to see they had multiples of each too.

No sign of any new TVC though, so still hoping Havoc shows up in store someplace.

This arrived today, it’s a pretty cool set actually, if you don’t think about the price breakdown. Starkiller looks awesome.

I’ve seen a bunch of these for $22.49 at my local Targets lately.

I was surprised to see Black Krrsantan on the pegs at Target today. I never did preorder this guy so I went ahead and picked it up. Then I saw him later again at GameStop, so he is getting out there.

I’ve been rewatching the previous episode on Monday nights, which is typically never do but I feel like it’s a lot to soak in all at once. So much toy candy in that last Ep too. 

Random thoughts:
I love love love that they are using Lars as Thrawn but if I’m being honest he sort of cuts an unimposing physical presence. Paunchy, a little slouched, maybe he just let himself go in exile lol because it’s hard to imagine him going toe to toe with that training droid on Rebels. The voice is sooo perfect though.

The 3 witches were creepy AF and exactly what I would have expected a Night Sister to look like. Kudos Dave Filoni. Funny though how with all their foresight they couldn’t conjure up the stolen battle plans, er..Ezra’s location.  :D

The Nomads were all super cool and we’ll be lucky to get one of them.  :-\

What “greater power” could Baylan be seeing to awaken? If Yuuzhan beat ‘em, join em? Am I Vong here?  ;)

Still unclear on what is in those crates and if Thrawn is making payment why are they loading those crates ONTO his ship? And what’s in the Catacombs?  ???
