I thought you just got a ticket, pop, popcorn, and some small trinket.  I've not heard of different video content before.  Has that been rumored/announced?

Thats a good point about the word "video" content. Most showings list "exclusive content" but don't mention the word video. Here's the listing for the zoo IMAX.

Was this Mandalorian ship easy to find at some point. I don't remember this at all. Now I'm wondering what else I missed. I see there was a rebels a-wing as well.

Dave, I agreed with everything you said until I realized I don't have to approve a blank check, instead it's just $110 or so to vote in support of this line to ensure the releases of Yak face  Sim Aloo, and maybe the Tonnika Sisters.

Also, there is this now.

Does anyone know the last time Ponda Baba was available on walmart.com? I have seen him up on Saturdays once in the morning at 8 a.m. Central Time and another at around 1pm or 2pm Central Time. Of course he's only there for 15 minutes though.
I swear it's been 2 months or so since I saw any of the websites post that he was actively available.

I wanted to see why so many people are so crazy about Doctor Aphra. I have read up through Vader Down and I will admit she is fun but I am not yet blown away. Does she get particularly awesome later on?

I don’t like her ship, I can say that. It seems like a run of the mill sci-fi ship.

The droids are kind of fun.

Does anyone know if the walmart interactive R2 interacts with the sphero BB-8?
