4” Epic Hero Series/World of Action Figure Line

[Matt_Fury]

Just another thing Hasbro is doing to take resources away from TVC.  How long will we have to wait until we get an SM-33 in TVC?

Hell, The Bad Batch is going to be finished nearly a year and we have yet to get anyone but Hunter in TVC!

From what Hasbro has publicly stated, lines like the Epic World of Adventure are geared specifically towards kids.  And they also have a distinctly different development budget than TVC or The Black Series.

If they don't announce sm-33 in tvc, I might just be buying my first Epic-whatever figure. The Yoda/pram ( just kidding) looks pretty good, too.

I hope unless Hasbro's studies show kids want more articulation, they aren't doing it to chase the "collector" crowd. I imagine more articulation  would equate to a higher price point, which would suck for kids and the adults who buy these for kids.

Couple more upcoming DLX shared by Jayson:

What is that Chewbacca supposed to be from?  Or is it just a made up outfit?

[Jeff]

I think he is inspired by the ROTS Wookiee armor but just as made up as the Mech-suits that they re doing in this line.

2002.  These would fit in with screaming Mace Windu.

[Nicklab]

The gear with Chewbacca could have been colored a leather brown and gold, and it would have driven up the potential appeal dramatically.  But I suspect the bright colors are meant to draw in parents and kids.

[Jedi Idej]

It's pleasantly surprising that a few grab my interest  enough that I'd consider buying them as a stand-in until the character is made in TVC. In the case of Chewie, the accessories are part of the lure. Dang it, Hasbro, you're starting to reel me in. 

[Nicklab]

There's definitely a temptation to get the Chewbacca.  And it would be with the intention of painting the accessories to make them look like something in ROTS.

On another note?  I saw the Imperial Speeder bike in person.  And I'm tempted to get it because of the basket that you can attach to the side.  But the thing is, I want to get 2 of those baskets and put them on the Tatooine speeder bike.  SMH, this is getting out of hand!

Thanks, Jeff. My app opened when I clicked on the link. Hopefully you're credited.

I did a double-take when I saw the total. Haha. So used to seeing TVC pricing. 

[Rob]

I reluctantly ordered one.
