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...

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

Assuming Hasbro sends these via FedEx again (like they did with Razor Crest and the Barge) you can use FedEx delivery manager to set the delivery day or steer the delivery to a FedEx location:

https://www.fedex.com/en-us/delivery-manager.html

I used this on the Sail Barge since we were travelling for Spring Break when they were shipped.  Did a vacation hold and then set the delivery day when we were back.  I think there is a 2-week limit on the vacation hold but you can have it re-routed to a fedex retail location and have someone pick it up there for you if you'll be out of town traveling... or if you need to hide the giant box's arrival from your wife or something (like some MN collectors I know :P).

I really enjoyed the first two episodes and the whole vibe of the show.  I feel like I'm already all-in on the mystery at the core with the whole At Attin planet.

Wim knows a heck of a lot about Jedi considering that most Jedi stuff was fully wiped out post-Order 66.  How does he have so much Jedi info, not to mention his dad gave him Old Republic dataries as coins/lunch money.  Sure feels like that is a planet that is a bit lost in time or cut off from the galaxy - all reinforced by the way the pirates react to their "lost" planet.  Looking forward to hopefully getting more about the planet's history and 'treasure'.

did anyone catch the kids watching those holographic circus performers from the SW Holiday Special?

I really like how Filoni/Favreau keep dropping Holiday Special easter eggs/items into the Mandoverse shows.  It's like they are bound and determined to drag that HS into full continuity somehow!  :D

Does Amazon tend to mark their exclusives down

Eventually, yes.  The Bad Batch carded 4-pack, Kenobi carded 3-pack, etc all saw clearance eventually.  Not sure why they haven't really done that yet with the Ahsoka/Droid carded 4-pack.

It doesn't look like they have any four packs in stock right now.

Maybe it was just when you searched this morning, but I see the following in-stock at the moment -

Enoch & Night Troopers
Phase 2 Clone Troopers
X-Wing Pilots

For some reason they don't come up in the TVC category but they show up if you search "4-pack".

So it turns out I really like this set... I don't really want 80 Ahsoka clones, but I keep buying them for the other troops. 

I'd love a solid 501st x4 set or a Shocktrooper x4 set with this sculpt/helmet too at some point in the near future.

Pretty cool though, especially with the Anzellan included.

With the Anzellan tooling done, we're one step closer to the highly-demanded (by me anyway) TVC Sith C-3PO with Sith Dagger and Babu Frik.  :D


I'm genuinely curious to see this up close.  That IG-12 has to be completely retooled for this to keep the Anzellan and Grogu in scale.

Hasbro Pulse posted a video to Instagram where Emily goes over the figure.  She says it's all new tooling in the torso/chassis but the arms/legs/head are re-used.  Grogu and Anzellan are all new as well.

Disney Parks Droid Factory / Re: Disney Mystery Crate Series 2
« on: November 18, 2024, 04:57 PM »
I’m having a hard time tracking these down on eBay for an affordable amount.

Agree.  I'm only after the Astromechs (don't care for the BB units Disney does; too big scale wise) and they seem to be running about $30 each.  Hard to justify $100 for three droids so I haven't pulled the trigger on S2 yet. :(

I hope they retire this blind-box, mystery crate stuff after this.  The crates are kind of a fun diorama piece but not something I feel the need to buy a bunch.
