TV-9D9 / Re: Andor (SPOILERS possible)

There was the other senator (Jebel) that was also in Rogue One, too, though he didn't have as many speaking parts as Palmo.  Yeah, it's nice to see some of those "cameos" from Rogue One make it in.

The closing montage was a nice touch, too.  It left Cassian with a happy ending.  Seeing Perrin end up with Runai Sculdun was interesting.  I was wondering what would happen to Mon's family, if the Empire would "kidnap" Perrin and Leida (who was married into an Imperial sympathetic family) and how that would influence Mon's life.  Perhaps something for a book.

I also wondered what happened to the Yavinian doodars that seemed to prey on the Rebels in the first couple episodes of the show...  It seemed like once more Rebels settled, there was no mention of them... just could have had a warning "don't venture out after dark" kind of thing.  Small things, but I agree with Jeff, A+

Those amazon prices feel like trial balloons.

Yeah, hard to tell what they are doing - Amazon seems to be a mixed bag with some still at $16.99, some at $22.99, and some "temporarily unavailable".

I guess it could just be normal algorithm based weirdness too based on sales/pre-order patterns?

Those amazon prices feel like trial balloons. A few of them are on figures that are already out, a few are on future preorders…

When they see that other retailers haven’t raised prices yet I suspect they’ll adjust back down to normal.

I also loved how they were able to get some of the original actors from Rogue One to appear in the last few episodes at the Yavin 4 base - General Draven, black woman on Yavin 4 rebel council, and the communications operator.

What continued to amaze me about this show was amplified last night.  I was sitting on the edge of my couch, so worried about K2SO, Andor, and Melshi even though I knew that nothing was going to happen to them on Coruscant.  Crazy how much this show made me care.

I was not asking for a Kleya back-story, but getting that and seeing her relationship with Luthen just made her actions all the more tragic. 

Everything about these last 6 episodes was just amazing.  A+

I'm seeing a price-bump from $16.99 to $22.99 on Amazon for Shin, Mando Super Commando, and the 501st Trooper from this latest wave. Looks like Asajj has also gone from $19.99 to $22.99.
With Cobb Vanth sitting as he did for $24.99, and IG-12 doing the same (locally at least) I cannot imagine this will be healthy for the line.

Damn, I was really hoping that the Cantina Adventure Set and the Stormtrooper set would have been opened for additional preorders as well, but no such luck.

Pulse is back and running as usual… no price changes that I see.  I suppose the 90 day extension has made changes unnecessary for now.

Just finished it up and I have to say the last three (really five) episodes were just about perfect.  I absolutely loved nearly all parts. 

I still think they could have sped up some of the first six or so episodes, but overall the second season was fantastic.

I so want some random Imperial dudes in partial Stormtrooper kits like the squad was wearing while raiding on Coruscant.

And seeing Dedra on Narkina 5 was totally unexpected, and awesome.  I did not expect her to go out that way.  The Empire she loved, that she gave everything for, totally screwed her.  Its perfect.
