Thanks for the links! I grabbed 3 Dooku, 8 Clones and 1 Cassian...I've actually been wanting an upgrade to his face apps, so I figured I should put my money where my mouth is. I'll use the extra Cassians I have to make custom rebels.

Do you get referral credit now or when the orders ship?


I was similar and grabbed 13 Clones, 3 Dookus, 2 Cassians, & 2 Finns. I'm happy with the new Dooku, even though I always liked the older Sith Evolutions version, and somehow am not entirely Cloned-out yet.

Finn is the only one in the lot I wasn't particularly thrilled with and may cancel later.

It’s only been a few months since I paid like $8 shipped for the last version

Well if you'd like to pay twice as much for the new photo-real repaint VC130 Cassian, he's up for pre-order at Amazon now -> https://amzn.to/3tLKdMJ  #ad #sponsoredlink  :D

Also at EE -> https://ee.toys/ISADPG #ad #sponsoredlink

Eh, my Cassian does not have the best face paint app and he is one of my favorite characters, I’ll bite.

Just found an HK Assassin Droid at a small Target.  Didn’t expect that.

I can’t remember, we’re there more than one with this body and paint scheme in the show or is he a one-off?  Wondering if I’m keeping my preorders or
canceling them.

Woah, new show toys at retail within a month of the show ending? What is this black magic *******?

There are definitely multiples. All of the ones in the Nightsister Temple were unique. I'm not sure if that means they all unique though. I plan on keeping a few extras of the basic figure, and fully expect we will see this again in a troop builder pack w/ the alternate decos.

Ha. 

Hasbro can't be happy about them being marked down so much.

If they get to $20 I'll grab more. 

Down a few bucks more to $23.00 ... I grabbed another pair at that price. It's getting closer for Rob.

« on: October 3, 2023, 06:26 PM »
Mine arrived yesterday... This one really doesn't feel like it is worth the $27. Grogu doesn't appear to be new. He comes with Yoda's saber, but can't hold it. The squatting frog is the same mold as the first Grogu that came out for individual sale in TBS.

Have we talked at all about whether there is anything new about these releases of Mando and Grogu?

They are both newish. Grogu's body/arms are all new and fully pre-posed with the exception of the head. Mando is mostly the version from "The Rescue" set, but includes forearms from another release without the slots for the fire effects.

Overall I LOVE the ship. We sure don't get enough vehicles in TVC considering this is the "World-Building" scale. I love that they've been including the flight display stands on the last few releases it really makes these ships display well and feel more high-end.

Great pics tman!

TV-9D9 / Re: Ahsoka (SPOILERS possible)
« on: September 23, 2023, 02:43 AM »
First off, what an incredibel couple of weeks for the show. I've LOVED everything we've gotten the last few episode, primarily for the story, but also for the toy possibilities.

Speculation on what is in the cases that Thrawn's team was loading in to the Star Destroyer?  I'm not sure they'll do ysalamiri in this version of the story, but that is my only guess at this point.

I wouldn't rule Ysalamiri out just yet... Given Sabine's lack of Force sensitivity, they could set up a really cool redemption cool arc where Sabine (and her very non-Jedi, Mandalorian skillset)  has to come back to rescue Ahsoka or other Force Adepts and gets the chance to redeem herself.

Other Collectibles / The Black Series -- 1:1 Helmet Replicas
« on: September 23, 2023, 02:03 AM »
I can't believe we don't have a thread for these yet. Has anyone else been collecting the Hasbro TBS Helmet Replicas? I picked up my first with the 332nd Clone Helmet and LOVE it. I don't have the extra change (or space) for the real high-end ones, but I feel like these are a really good deal for the price. I don't have room for many, but will definitely be adding Rex.

(Jeff please swap for sponsored links and I'll order one.  :P )

I found these at Target in Denver tonight. Ended up picking up three and will cancel my preorders. September had not been nice to the wallet... :-X

The Vintage Collection / Re: 2023 TVC OWK Obi-Wan & Battle Damage Vader 2-Pack
« on: September 15, 2023, 06:32 PM »
I do at least like the Obi-Wan cardback, but agree with the overall sentiments about the high price & the lazyish Vader cardback. The Obi-Wan figure looks good. It's hard to tell if that is a new torso or if it comes from another older Jedi figure. If it is a new piece, I'll bet that is a sign we will see some other Jedi figures soon.

I also wonder if the "Showdown" vs "Duel's End" text had anything to do with the delayed reveal of this item and if both versions made it to production?

« on: September 12, 2023, 03:51 PM »
I'll take one... I missed out the first time and secondary market prices for the original have been somewhere over $125 for a while. I still would have rather gotten something new.

My bubble mailer didn't fare as well. Both bubbles were creased and slightly smushed and the cards were warped and lightly creased in a few spots.

It's probably not even worth the hassle of a return, given that the replacement will also just be shipped in a bubble mailer. I guess I'll look for a better one in-store and try to upgrade.  ::)
