I saw these marked down to $12.99 at Target yesterday.

Now a Rose 2 pack to peg warm!

Or not, people will get it for the droids.

Female officer body has appeal, since the only other option is the Juno Eclipse body.

This well sell, though I think the custom appeal of Rose probably takes a hit considering you'd be army building BB units too. BB-8 and BB-9 could have done just as well together on a card.

40 years later and I can't believe how easy it is to just dress up like an imperial and infiltrate any base or ship they have in the galaxy.

Do these people not know their co-workers?!

HasCon case reveals Chirrut and Baze two-pack. With new awesome orange gatling gun accessory! They might have improved Baze's paint ops, too. Probably force link, too.

Yeah - definitely added the Force Link chip to these two. The big accessory will also have it's own chip if they follow the model they've got so far with the 2-packs. Also nice to see Chirrut get a more accurate representation of his bowcaster-like rifle.

If the Chirrut figure doesn't say "I am one with the force and the force is with me" I will be VERY disappointed.  ;D

Hugely disappointed that Baze and Chirrut are simple repacks (I know they have the Force Link thing now, but...) but I will probably end up buying them to get the light bow, right as Chirutt is announced for TVC.

Especially Finn.  One of his Stormtrooper buddies recognized him on Takodana.

My guess is they aren't infiltrating an FO ship or facility but trying to avoid attention when they meet up with a contact.

Site sponsor Entertainment Earth is now taking pre-orders for Wave 2 of the 3.75" 2-packs.  Best part is that they have listed the case with the Hasbro code names and not the figure names....



Ninja of Love and doppleganger?   lol

If you don't speak Hasbro code, the assortment is...
1x TLJ Rey (Jedi Training) and Elite Praetorian Guard
1x ESB Han Solo and Boba Fett
3x RO Baze Malbus and Chirrut Imwe
3x TLJ Rose (First Order Disguise), BB-8, and BB-9E

I may have missed an answer to this question, but does anyone know if the BB droids are different sculpts from their Disney exclusive counterparts?

Yes.  These will be similar to Hasbro's TFA BB-8 sculpt and not like the Disney BAD BB-unit sculpt (which breaks up into 4 parts).

I like Hasbro's code names better than the actual character names, except Rey doesn't look like Tracey Gold to me. Or is that the Praetorian?  :P

LOL at Ninja of Love.

Another annoying question, are Baze and Chirrut the same as the Rogue One counterparts? Never picked either of them up, so this set is enticing.

No. Both have been slightly retooled to add the force link thingy.  Also seems to be some slight deco tweaks as a result of being made in China versus Vietnam (for Chirrut).  Also, the accessories are a bit different this time around.
