Ah okay, I didn't realize it wasn't going to be at Target like the others.

Does Fan-Channel include Amazon?

I reluctantly ordered one.

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

Yes please.  There is still a ton of stuff they could do for the first time or make huge improvements to…

I’d love an Owen and Beru, a new Lars Homestead or maybe Obi-Wan’s house as an interior.  A V-35 Landspeeder, or a Ubrikkian 9000.  Plenty of cantina aliens yet…

Wrong movie and a conversation for another place, but I’m also kind of blown away that they never did anything with Yoda’s hut given the Kenner roots of it all.

I know it won't happen, but I'd rather it be someone heavily involved with Andor.  Does Tony Gilroy want the job?!

The guitar stand is a great idea. That's a nice little Akbar focus you have there Rob!

Thanks!  There are a few other pieces that don't fit on that small shelf and are in other spots, but it was fun to do... there's a Gentle Giant mini-bust with the other busts... a few knit and plush things... plus the newer Gentle Giant statue that you can kind of see the leg of behind the holy grail. 

Where did you get your stand for the Shuttle?  Mine is parked with folded wings and I like the look of it in action.

It's this one:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/132338601155

It really just sits on top of a flat pedestal and I wouldn't recommend it if you're displaying in an area where kids or pets or even you would bump into it.  But it looks pretty.

That eBay seller has tons of custom stands for various ships and other toys... I have a few others like one for the B-Wing and one for Obi-Wan's starfighter with the hyperspace ring...

Shipping is from Australia and takes a few weeks, but it's good stuff.

Well I finally got Luke in the mail just now... you guys weren't kidding.  It really is just about perfect.

I can't even fathom the idea of someone else taking all this over.

Say Mattel or some other company got the license...

Are they starting over like none of it ever happened?  Will they even continue 3.75" scale?  Would a new company match what Hasbro's been doing stylistically or would the figures feel like they come from a different line... etc...

Unless someone came along and made it relatively seamless, I have a hard time imagining that I'd continue on.

That corner has sort of become an odds and ends spot... there's a Golden Idol back there too, and this is where the Adventure Series stuff has ended up for now.

3 or 4 weeks later and I finally got this thing out of the box today... in the meantime I saw a reddit post that solved my space issue.  There was a guy who bought a guitar stand from Amazon that holds it very nicely.  So I did that.  If this helps anyone else... This is the one.

Same!  I snuck in with a half hour to spare.   Thanks!

I just got a Pulse email letting me know that either my order will ship soon (which I assume is the right choice) or that my new expected ship date for my Luke order with them is... January 10.

A month ago.

These emails are worthless.

Ideally they have done a full female imperial officer body so they don’t have to keep using the male body for women, but like some of you have said… I’m just happy they’re making her at all. 

I’m not as picky about accuracy as people on social media… I just want variety and Hasbro isn’t so good at that anymore.
