Armorer’s Forge?   That seems a bit random.

Forgot about this...

The Armorer's Forge will make a neat background piece.  I'm just curious what the pack-in figure will be.

They said the Shriek Hawk Mandalorians are an Amazon exclusive... I wonder if that means they will be in a carded 4-pack set (like most of the other Amazon 4-packs) rather than a troop builder pack? I hope that it is not, but that would also imply that this is the first troop-builder pack that aren't available on Pulse & Shop Disney.

Emily specifically referred to the Shriek-Hawk Team as a multi-pack and not a troop builder 4-pack.  Hasbro tends to be specific in their language, and I don’t think this is an exception.  So perhaps it’s something like the Jabba’s denizens 4-pack.

Steve - you know its just going to be a slightly repainted (or straight up repack) Armorer figure.

I’m super into the idea.   Can’t wait to see it.

Probably... if that's the case, I'd just prefer them to skip the figure and save us 15ish dollars.

Yet another excuse for them to re-use the flat "grogu beskar shirt" accessory!

I’m hoping for some TM season 3 specific accessories for the Armorer’s Forge.  The Beskar chain mail shirt is one thing that works.  I’d also like to see things like Bo-Karan’s Mythosaur pauldron, Ragnar’s helmet, and the Clan Mudhorn plate armor for Grogu.  Those would make the forge that much more of a world building piece.

They won’t do it but a forge would be an awesome place to include a light up feature.

If only you could incinerate a Stormtrooper in it!  I've got plenty of POTF2 Stormtroopers that I would happily throw into the Forge.
