Kenner Retro Collection / Re: 2025 Kenner Retro Collection ANH Wave

Well, I was only off by 12 hours.  :D

Not sure if this will be like the last one that was easy to find in store or the one with Mon Mothma I never saw anywhere.  Better safe than sorry I guess. I got one.  :)

The ROTJ pack with Mon Mothma was a Pulse/Disney exclusive, so unless you went to one of the parks your only option was online for that.

I preordered this one just to be on the safe side...and I will buy extras if they show up in stores.

It is supposed to be 1pm ET.

I agree about preorders...if it is anything like the TPM Retro pack from last year I will miss the order and find plenty in stores.

Hammerhead is going to be $12.49 within two months.  Guaranteed.

As a fan-channel release I am not so sure. He will at least not pull a Cobb Vanth at Walmart and Target.

Looking at that C-3PO closely, it is the same old craptastic removable panels TVC version they keep putting out since 2010. The right arm's weird pointy elbow and very specific finger pose are dead giveaways, as is the barrel chest.

(That said, Jayson did update his rumor list to include C-3PO today, so the plot thickens.)

Star Wars Anthology / Re: Rogue Squadron
« on: January 12, 2025, 03:29 PM »
I hope beyond hope that sanity prevails and the "Rogue Squadron" project moves to the OT era as well, even if I realize that it will probably not include the characters from Stackpole's very enjoyable novels.

If they move forward with the project as set in the sequel era as it was originally announced I will be much less interested, if only because of the limited appeal of the muddy Resistance/First Order conflict.

I ordered one Ghost....and I have two labels created in FedEx.

This could get interesting.

I didn't know Neca was selling the Ghost...

At the live presentation in England where these were revealed, Steve Evans showed an image that had the 1979 Walrus Man on it, as well as Luke's medal and Han's helmet.

Disney Parks Droid Factory / Re: 2024 Disney Star Tours Starspeeder 3000

Wow, I am surprised they sold you the carded sample that comes with the set, that is the only piece of the set with the limited edition number on it from what I've heard...that's something I would have a hard time justifying taking off the card. I agree you might want to hold out to see if that figure comes out some other way in the next year or so before freeing him from the packaging.

TV-9D9 / Re: The Mandalorian - Season 4? (SPOILERS possible)
« on: September 26, 2024, 05:16 PM »
Season 4 was mapped out and ready to go after season 3 wrapped, then Disney decided they needed a Mando movie, so Favreau and Filoni  took the overall story arc of Season 4 and turned it into the script for the movie instead.

Season 4 isn't happening in that form anyway. I would assume if the movie is a success it will get movie sequels rather than more TV seasons, and if it isn't successful it will just be put aside.

The Vintage Collection / Re: 2024 Deluxe VC343 Cobb Vanth (Mandalorian Armor)

I found a case of Cobbs on the shelf at Walmart today. Though I am not thrilled with the mark-up, I am resigned to it if I want a character with extra paint apps an complex construction. And I have wanted this character in this configuration for 5 years, so I bit.

That said, I am very glad that there were quite a few on the shelf, and that they have switched to the blister cards, because at these prices the figure needed to be perfect, and I was able to sort through a bunch that were iffy on the face deco to find one I was satisfied with.

I am two weeks away from my trip to Orlando...I really wonder if there might be some lingering that far out.

From the numbers on the cases I saw it looks like they had 1150 of the 3000 set aside for WDW. It is crazy that how they broke it out, online got the smallest allocation.

Off the top of my head?

--Mos Eisely Alleys (kind of a hall)

Excellent dream manifestation!

Lol. I threw a LOT at the wall in that post. Something had to stick!

I would take four "hallways" a year if they all turn out like the Tatooine Street and Light Cruiser Hall.

Same.  Seems like maybe this is more for people that didn’t get the cantina?   

I was thinking the exact opposite...this is the answer for those people who wanted exterior walls for their Cantina set-up.
