Yep... this is going to cost $300 + Tax + Shipping

It's tough being a completist sometimes.

I only got one from Amazon and opened it. While the stand is a great idea, I'll just get it for the new box artwork.

The Black Series 6" Figures / Re: Black Series Snowspeeder with 6
« on: February 22, 2020, 04:38 PM »
A 6” scale snowspeeder seems like it’s within the realm of possibility.  And a pack-in Dak Ralter is a cool bonus, too.  And IIRC there has been a rumor circulating about a 6” Snowspeeder pilot Luke Skywatcher, too.

I've backed away from the 6 inch line. But, I have to have that snow speeder. Looks fantastic!

10 figures! Not sure how I feel about the Snowspeeder Luke and Dagobah R2, though.

Well, Power Droid and Luke confirmed!

Power Droid looks pretty decent. The card better be the vintage card.

Edit:

Doing some math. Power droid is VC167. Luke is VC175. With Chirrut, Hondo, Stormtrooper Luke and the Airborne Trooper (if confirmed,) that leaves 4 more on the way.  :)

I have mixed feelings as well. There's little doubt that Disney stifles Hasbro's innovation potential. You'd think with all the smart people around that a better balance could be found between production and sales potential.

As long as the Power Droid is a straight original 92 release, I'll be happy.

Although it would be annoying, I'd be very happy to have the Luke Stormtrooper on the RO Stormtrooper body with the appropriate belt. I'd buy a bunch.

The rest will just fine. Especially knocking off a proper carded Jedi Luke.

If it’s the ones they teased on Instagram this morning I found it to be a horribly underwhelming six pack.  With Mandalorian, Rise of Skywalker, and the 40th anniversary if ESB, I really hope they have much better in store.

Same. But, I can see a limited announcement with holding more for Comic-Con and Celebration afterwards.

Thanks for the tips guys.

Last question for now... is this an accurate representation of the four droid variants?



I'm assuming it's right, and that the tan/orange one and red one are two different droids and not just poorly colored photographs of the same one...

Wait. There's 4 variants?! Yikes.

Not sure why all the park exclusives aren't sold at the Disney stores.

When the Droid Factory stuff was released, Disney went on record saying that certain Star Wars merchandise created for Disney Parks was primarily intended to offer experiences/shopping you can’t find anywhere outside Disney Parks.  When you go there on vacation, they want you to find stuff in the Parks that you've never seen before - can't do that if all the stuff in the park is the same as the stuff in your local Disney Store.

Some stuff does eventually make it on-line or out to Disney Stores, but not everything will.  Disney has said that most of the Galaxy Edge stuff will stay in that park for the experience for quite some time.


Thanks for that explanation.  :)

Nice photos!

Saw these for $100 at a Disney Store today

Not sure why all the park exclusives aren't sold at the Disney stores. Wonder how the sales numbers justify their decisions either way.

Rob nailed it

If they go on clearance, that's when I get a second one. :)

3rd, 4th and 5th for me.  :)

Brickseek is showing more TVC in stock in my general area.   But I am just so fed up with going to retail in general that I'm going to wait for my online orders.

I'd much rather be able to walk into a store and buy these. However, at the same time, I accomplish more during the day avoiding toy runs.
