I opened my display stand that came with the Darth Vader figure this morning, and really like it. I wish Hasbro would do more of this stuff, and for 3.75" figures as well. Maybe they do pack-ins like this or mail-away deals, but it would be cool to do a new background (and maybe base) for each movie release, or at least periodically.
Nice work Hasbro!
This is a tough one. And with movies coming at the pace that they are, the opportunities for reference books like the Incredible Cross Sections to take a deep dive with starship's like the Meson Martinet just don't seem to be there right now. As it was, that ship just seemed like a very basic set: a bulkhead with a hatch and the loading ramp, with little else. We never saw the entire ship. I'm wondering if there might be something in The Art of The Force Awakens?
Love the grittiness of this movie. "Good" guys doing bad things for the cause.
Yeah I really liked how they set the tone immediately with Cassian offing the guy who told him about the "pilot".
Anybody see it in 3D and have comments on the 3D effects? Is it worth seeing?
I was going to go see the movie again today (saw it in standard 2D last night) and was debating about seeing it in 3D.
I've seen the Batcave here in Iowa. It's very large, about the size of the Turtles sewer playset. I think its great they're trying it out. There is a market for playsets. I think part of the problem for Hasbro is that outside of the Falcon, there is no static setting in the films. Death Star, Cantina, Jabba's Palace, they're all great but they're here and gone. The Batcave, the Sewer, or Main St. for the Simpsons, these are places kids and collectors can mine play out of indefinitely. The Falcon fits that mold, but she had been absent for 30 years until TFA. The Nerf Falcon didn't really work the same as the BMF did in terms of a playset, but that's too expensive...
