Almost 104?!  Amazing.

My grandfather made it to 97 and his mom was 101 when she passed.  Hoping for their genes...

Got some of the 4" Pacific Rim figures from McFarlane at Ross for $3.99 per. Not exactly TVC but I'll see how they fit as random creatures in the Geonosis arena.

Speaking of the Bad Batch 4-Pack... I just found two of them at Ross for $15.99 each.

I'm going to take the grey troopers and then send the rest to Toys for Tots.

I'm starting to worry about the timing on this... I hope it doesn't arrive right when everyone is traveling for the holidays.

My Grandmother passed away on Thanksgiving.  Her memorial service is scheduled for 13 December and I'm travelling up to NY for it.

That's the day it will arrive.

Sorry to hear that brother. Stuff like that is always harder around the holidays somehow.

Thanks.  It's tough but she would've been 104 in January.  She had congestive heart failure for two decades (she outlived her pacemaker!) 

She had a good run.

How involved are Filoni (and Favreau) in this? 

Sounds like they were there as mentors and to help guide them through the LFL process but mainly they just let Jon Watts do his thing...

So far I really like it and am glad that Filoni isn't overly involved.  I'm looking forward to how this plays out.

I sat down to watch this last night and realized we don’t have D+ anymore.  :-[

I thought i still had access through Hulu or something but apparently not.

Hopefully they will run some kind of free trial or holiday promotion where I can catch up on these.

Same as others - I liked it too but I had low expectations.

How involved are Filoni (and Favreau) in this?  I know they're listed as executive producers but this feels new and fun and not like his usual stuff.  So much of Filoni's stuff seems so over imbued with Campbell's hero journey / samurai symbolism that a lot of the new Star Wars stuff just feels so heavy.  Sometimes I think Filoni feels he needs to out George Lucas George Lucas.

Sure there is still some Goonies hero journey stuff in this but its so lighthearted.  So far I'm really digging it.

Chances we'll get more than the Jude Law character as an action figure in 3.75" scale?  So far I don't see any obvious repaints available.

or if you need to hide the giant box's arrival from your wife or something (like some MN collectors I know :P).

There are others?
