Does anyone happen to know the exact width and height on this thing?  I’ve reached the Mandalorian part of unpacking my collection and am trying to leave a precise spot for this thing to make it easy to put up when it’s released.

The dimensions when set up are 17.5" long, 6" tall (6.5" at the top of the arch) and 4" deep on the halfarch wall that sticks out., Depending on how far you want to space the bar from the wall you've got a lot of leeway there to make it deeper.

Quick review. It is a wall with Cardboard inserts. Ho hum. The bar, stools, and barware are nice accessories that will make it fun to futz with.

I winced a lot through this episode.

The biggest thing that took me out of it is the sheer fact that Krrsantan should have completely killed Boba when he pulled him out of that tank. There is no reason at all for them to have any kind of brawl when Boba was unconscious, unarmed, and otherwise unaware that a fight was taking place.

The issue as a whole for this episode was how "soft" everything was. Boba's new thugs are milquetoast. The Gamorreans are ineffectual. Fennic chastises him to eat the feast like Mrs. Claus. "Eat, Boba, Eat!" 8D8's promotion to main exposition dumper has gone from cute to overextended.

Last year we were introduced to rearmored Boba Fett in a brutal takedown of a squad of Stormtroopers. I think back to the brutal beating Mando took in episode 2 at the hands of the Jawas--and how he was equally brutal in disintegrating them. I remember the high-speed speeder chase in Solo where droids were brutally beheaded in the crossfire. But a musclebound Wookiee--you know the species that will dismember you over a move in a game of chess--can't kill an unsuspecting naked guy in a hospital bed?

Even Grogu eating frogman eggs has a sharper edge than anything going on between these "Crime Bosses." I am honestly surprised that the Mos Vespa speeders had enough oomph to shred through the McQuarrie painting in the road.

If the Hutts came to the Palace to warn Boba that he needs to vacate before the Pykes arrive (via the Star Wars equivalent of a Greyhound Bus--that's intimidating!) then why did they also bring a housewarming gift that only makes sense if Boba stays in the Palace? Why did they send Krrsantan to kill Boba if they were no longer interested in the territory?

And why does everyone walk to the Palace gates anyway??? I know the droids did in ROTJ, but they're droids. Why does Boba Fett not take a speeder into town, but instead walks and walks and walks?

Even my son commented on how dumb Boba was this last episode, when the mayor's majordomo ducked out the back door and ran. I know that is a craven bad guy trope, but why did he do it? Why was he so invested in not telling Boba about the Pykes--until he was caught trying to dip out, then it came out quick and easy? Boba wants the kids to pay for the water because stealing it is "illegal." Huh? He is the self described "Crime Boss" who murdered his predecessor in cold blood. But stealing water is illegal, kids.

4 episodes to go. It ain't looking pretty.

I really enjoyed the second episode. The narrative was a lot stronger in the flashback section.

I have been watching these with my 12 year old and he Is eating it up with a spoon. When the train showed up I had to pause and take advantage of the teachable moment to discuss Smerican History, so I thank Mr. Favreau for that.

All that said, it is still glaring to me that Boba Fett got paid by Jabba and Vader for capturing Han Solo, and it's not like he was carrying the credits on him when he fell in the Sarlaac. He has a ton of money in the bank and a personal Starship parked where he left it, he could leave Tatooine any time he wants, until this show gets around to telling me why that isn't the case. The only clue on that front has been how happy he was to show Mando his chain code ID from the armor's gauntlet, like pulling out his driver's license. But he had to leave Tatooine to do that. Something just doesn't add up yet.

They are $14.99 each, which is $2 more than the individually carded figures. Someone really needs to tell Disney, that the cost for blind-bagged/boxed should be LOWER, not higher than being able to buy an item that you actually know what it is. 

The conspiracy theorist in me says that can only mean one thing...individually carded droid prices are going up significantly.

This set is pretty awesome!  It’s easy to pick out at least three of these droids and when they appear on The Mandalorian.  I really hope this winds up on Shop Disney, too.  The least expensive of the 2 listings I found on eBay was $79 plus shipping.

I saw it for $84 shipped today so I bit, $21 a droid and I won't sweat it any longer. Disney droids give me panic attacks, I still have that Rainbow droid in his package because of how all that went down. So it's like I don't have it.

Entertainment Earth dinged my card today...the only thing I have on preorder from them is the Mandalorian Retro wave 2 case. Hmmm....off to investigate!

Never mind, somehow I had ordered the Bo Katan case back in May and forgot about it. When I just tried to cancel, they said the case shipped this morning.

No Retros yet...

This **** is just getting old.

Clone repaints that are identical tooling. There isn't a single unique piece among the three. Well, that should make them cheap anyways. Nope, not even regular price, but premium pricing of $16.

And fan channel exclusives, so we have to include shipping since there's no chance to find them at retail. Well, at least we can bundle them up to earn free shipping somewhere. Oops, except each one is exclusive to a different outlet.

Yeah, in the end these wind up costing just as much as last week's Boba Fett.

If it's going to be $25 per figure, I don't want reused parts and Clone repaints. I want a goddamn Ranat and a Jabba's Palace Ishi Tib. (I don't begrudge anyone their video game lead character either, at this point, it's just that I don't know anything beyond Masters of Teras Kasi.)
