Okay, few questions.

>-B2 Super Battle Droid and Geonosis Battle Droid with C-3PO head 2pk - Pulse
Does Hasbro Pulse restock their exclusives after being sold out or am I searching ebay?

>-Yoda & Commander Cody 2pk - Pulse
Is this meant to be the Gree pack or are we getting a Yoda with Cody as well? Feel like a new EP3 Obi Wan would make more sense with a Cody figure.

>-Clone Trooper 2pk - Pulse/Target
Have we gotten pics of this one yet?
>>
>>10980270
>Nearly a year for a re-release
Why so long? Glad I hadn't gotten around to opening my archive Palpatine yet at least since I was going to pick him up a custom throne from ebay.
>>
>>10980556
>Does Hasbro Pulse restock their exclusives after being sold out or am I searching ebay?
Sometimes they do. You just have to make it a habit to check regularly.

Is this meant to be the Gree pack
Yes. Cody is a typo so thanks for pointing that out so I can fix it for next thread. I think they must have said Cody while I was typing it out for the list.

>-Clone Trooper 2pk - Pulse/Target
>Have we gotten pics of this one yet?
Pic related. It's been available to order since late March.
>>
>>10980262
I didn’t order anything Star Wars on the 4th but I picked up a couple acrylic shelves that look fantastic and there’s room for two more Black Series figures to make everything look evenly spaced out.
Deciding between Bo Katan or Sabine Wren and a Stormtrooper, or waiting for my last two dream characters Padme in her red dress and Barriss Offee. Phantom Menace has been getting a lot of love lately and Barriss is in some new Disney show so there’s still some hope.
>>
>>10980270
Sucks that it's a year away but this is the main reissue I was waiting for, I've dropped the line more or less but I'm definitely coming back for him. Probably need to grab another royal guard as well to pose behind him. I'm also glad I don't have to keep hoping for a figuarts to reissue theirs with its inflated price due to the two traffic cones he comes with.
>>10980325
>Have they done a MTT yet?
Not yet, it'll be interesting to see if they do one though since I assume they'll work in a working front door with a droid rack inside, although knowing how stingy they tend to be with figures it might not end well.
>>
As a Jedi she looks unique compared to the usual brown monk robes, she had a couple episodes dedicated to her in Clone Wars, and without the lightsaber she would work great as a cantina background character.
Did the Vintage Collection version pegwarm super hard and that’s why they won’t make a Black Series one?
I wish she got more love.
>>
>>10980585
I hope you're okay with getting Inquisitor Barriss or hit-the-wall Barriss
>>
>>10980604
I know that’s what’s coming. As long as they keep her face clear of stupid shit like Inquisitor headbands or whatever I could just put her head on a Palpatine and be happy.

Because it's one of the few characters that they know will actually sell well, they need to make up for all of the Disney shit that rotted on the pegs.
Retro prequels is fucking retarded, anyways, as you can get the ACTUAL original prequel figures for super cheap.

>>10980715
Newfag detected. OT had plenty of characters that didn't do so hot, mostly anybody that isn't Luke or their first appearance, except for villains (but even then, too many vaders could see them do blegh). PQ stuff was Jedi, bigger villains, and infantry characters did good, rest were pretty blegh (especially amidalla and her 20 bjillion outfits). ST... Well funny enough, ST barely got any TVC treatment. Phasma did alright, cuz special storm trooper, and it released before her character was known to be worthless. Troopers didn't do as well as troopers usually do, and kylo got a single version, with no bare head option, which was one of the things actually wanted (if anything, they should have made a deluxe kylo, with every head/helmet option to make it as he appeared at any point in the ST). Everybody else did shit, or got no chance, but I doubt they'd even sell well, besides MAYBE the knights of Ren, because they had a decent evil appearance.

You absolute faggot, I've been collecting since 1977 and Lando has been a pegwarmer since 1980. And again in 1995, and so many times since. And then there was 1997 where all the OT stuff went on MASSIVE clearance at TRU to get rid of pegwarming stock (the Freeze Frame packaging)

You are a liar, a retard, and a faggot. Just shut your fucking mouth.

Yea, it's annoying. It makes me wonder if the female pilot they pipelined from Ahsoka is going to have a new body or not. And if it is, then it's more frustrating that they couldn't have just waited to use that. While I like the inclusion of the aliens, it would have been nice to see them change up the bodies a bit and also I wish they were different colored jumpsuits for the different squadrons.

What shitty categories too quality and accuracy should go hand in hand, and by their own definition works building and character depth is redundant as is character depth and nostalgia.
It should've been quality (including accuracy), character range, figure accessories, vehicles and playsets.
Even then vehicles and playsets could probably be grouped

As someone who's the theoretical target audience of these armybuilder sets, I would've been thrilled with this exactly as-is if they'd at least done a female upper torso for the 2 girl pilots, but without that I'm having a real hard time trying to self-justify ordering this. Would've also vastly preferred a more generic-faced alien over the mirialan, even though I like the figure in isolation; the duros pilot won't look weird to have multiples of, and neither would a nikto, or a rodian, or a quarren, etc., but the mirialan looks a bit too unique and by having a green neck she isn't an ideal candidate for head-swapping like the humans are. That alone wouldn't've been a dealbreaker though, I would've still bought at least one set, but failing to give us any kind of tooling difference for the girl pilot body is currently keeping me from rationalizing even getting one. Would really not have wanted them to all have different jumpsuit colors though, that would've been a separate mess, making exactly one of them a dark green A-Wing jumpsuit would've been fine but anything past that would've been going too far and making them too different from each other to 'work' as an armybuilding pack.

Related note, for those of you who are also the theoretical target audience for armybuilding products, amazon's shifted the release dates of the night trooper pack up to june 7th, along with the ISB Cal fan channel wave. It's nice that they're coming early, but also fuck I really did not want to drop the money for both of those things at the exact same time, when they're the exact two things I put in for the biggest number of out of this year's currently-known releases.

When Emily revealed this set, she said she hopes to do more aliens in future sets. So ideally it would be cool if we could get one that is something like just Rebel troopers that's are different species like Rodian, Quarren, etc so we can have a lot of generic ones.

>>
>>10983138
I also hope we get more aliens in future sets, and really really hope this set's potentially poor performance isn't taken by hasbro as a sign that adding aliens was the mistake that held it back. Honestly the more I look at it the more I want it for the duros alone, but I'm definitely not committing to spending the $55 right now when I'm about to get hit with the cost of the night trooper packs and the 'small' pile of ISB Cals I preordered for the sake of using as generic ISBs, on top of the haslab cost (if it's something I want) almost definitely being in the same time period too.

true i suppose, and all i'd need to do is just headswap and repaint the helmet

I have a rebel pilot luke (as well as stormtrooper and jedi knight luke) as part of a 3pack that I got for free at comic-con (won it), should I just open it if the body is the same?
and the ahsoka pilot is in blue etc and i cant be asked to repaint in orange

i'll have to wait until someone makes a custom head, but someone should make it right? maybe i'll have to contact one of those custom head guys on etsy

Why? She's responsible for a lot of good things in the line, like updating the articulation and the playsets and has been pushing to do more things like beasts. She's the only one on the team besides Chris that seems to be an actual fan of Star Wars and has been collecting it for most of her life.

It was more so to do with costs and logistics. The tooling for that female pilot is probably in storage somewhere not close to the factory that was producing this pack. So there would have been extra costs on top of what was already being spent to make the new heads which would have driven the price up of this set more and would have resulted in less sales. Really this should have just been a set of all dudes and then they could do all females later but I'm sure there was a Disney mandate about making it 50/50.

those threes don't like.. but I'm sure Disney also argued (to itself) that that way they have characters that would also please the trans community.

Holy shit, just got an update on my Captain Rex Black Series pre-order that BBTS has been sitting on for like 2 or 3 years now. He's apparently coming out in October. Goddamn. I already ended up getting the Bad Batch version for free a few years ago when I had an issue with a figure. Hasbro sent me Rex instead of outright replacing the other figure I got. Still, weird to see that gone from the first spot on my pre-order list.

Weirdly enough, his page is no longer available so I really wonder if he's actually coming out.

I am glad to see it is the cantina as rumored. I am just sad that I don't have the space for it. I pretty much maxed out getting Jabba's Throne Room. However I REALLY hope they will release those alcoves as a separate playset in the mainline. That way you can add on to the Cantina if you want or just have a small display for Han vs Greedo.
>>
>>10984994
Looks good, happy for you TVC collectors. But isn't $400 a little too much?
>>
>>10985122
It supposedly comes with a wave of figures. So really it's more like $300 for the set and $100 for the figures which isn't too crazy when the Throne Room was $250.

>>10985143
Fuck that's a great deal. I've been thinking about starting collecting TVC, these figures look good.

Is there cantina aliens that are expensive or something? I’m more of a Jabba’s guy myself so I don’t have many of the cantina aliens

I’m sure there are but there’s Jabba guys who are expensive. You don’t have to be a completionist on this stuff. Even if I had all the Jabba guys they wouldn’t fit in my display and if I tried it’d look like a crowded mess. Just focus on getting ones that are accessible and don’t beat yourself up over not having them all. I think bigger issue than getting the aliens is the fact that a good version of Luke, Han, and Obi-Wan from ep 4 that meets today’s standards is sorta non existent. 2006-2018 had some nice aliens, but I find it to be a real low point for human face sculpts. A lot of them have rat faces and don’t look anywhere as good as the face sculpts from the prequel movie figures (which also weren’t perfect by any means, but not too bad for the time).

The hookah that the sisters were at is included on the bar. Supposedly the description said all the figures included are patrons, none were main characters. 3 of them were included and the others were a tier unlock. I would say it's a safe bet to assume the Tonnikas are included in one of those.

>>10986072
>Only hardcore TVC collectors care about the Tomika sisters
Simply not true, they’ve famously (within the Star Wars toy community) never had a figure, so it’s gonna be kind of a big deal that we finally get them. Plus where do you think the money is in the Star Wars toy community? It’s the old retired OT fags, they will go crazy over this.
>>
>>10986144
I never really got it either. In season 3 he gets a protocol droid arm to disguise himself as a normal Stormtrooper, but I think it’s totally limp for some reason. I think it would have differentiated him more from Tech if he had an Inspector Gadget arm. I figured Tech’s thing would be hacking until I saw the show.

That would make him too able bodied and amputees watching the show would feel too insecure.

I'd say that those who care about the Tonnika sisters are the ones collecting TVC. Say what you will about BS vs TVC, but 3.75in is literally the legacy scale since 1978. And Hasbro was really killing it in the 2000's with incredible sculpts and articulation and gave us a cantina alien at least every year for awhile.

Pleasantly surprised by the pricing. Y'all need to remember it's not so much that these are getting expensive, it's that USD isn't worth shit anymore. A quarter pounder meal to go was $6 when figures were $6, now both are around $20.

I'm still kinda curious why this wasn't what his arm was used for in the show. Clearly the idea was there at some point because both Hot Toys and Hasbro included that grapple hook arm so they must have had concept art with it. I agree with >>10986180 that giving him a multi-functional arm would have helped make him stand apart a bit. Often it felt like Echo was basically just there on a lot of missions. Very few times did it seem like he was really crucial to mission success in the same way Tech was a lot of times. And in combat all he could use was a single pistol which was kind of lame. Making his arm more like a Swiss army knife would have made sense with his history as an ARC Trooper and being able to adapt and improvise on the fly.

TC-14 came in. I only ordered one but they sent it in a comically large box which is funny since I didn't pay for shipping. She looks pretty good in terms of her paint finish. The eyes on my copy aren't quite as googly as some of the others I've seen which is nice. I wouldn't hate a C3-PO using this mold and a gold paint with the same luster.

They did C3-PO on this mold before, sadly not painted like that though; it was just gold plastic, and the average ebay cost for it is a bit steep which is why I'm pulling a pic from google as I don't have it yet myself. I think it's pretty fair to say this is the best 3.75" protocol droid mold we have, even after subtracting some points for the swivel hips and shoulders, and they've done a pretty respectable amount of droids on it, between the in-park buildables that covered a bunch of canon (and a few original) droids, and the really excellent 4-LOM single release.
>>
>>10986809
With this new TC-14 release happening I'm desperately hoping they'll put out a C3PO with the same type of paint soon, because I don't really trust hasbro to ever get it exactly right, especially with how they recently handled Chopper compared to his park version.

Maybe. I am 38 years old and I love the OT. I just couldn't care less about the two sisters. Again, I am happy for the people who want this, but I am seriously tired of hearing about it. I also do not collect TVC unless it's a random pick up impulse buy or a cheap Empire army builder.

What I hate is how Hasbro thinks these people represent the entire collector base. It gives them an excuse to repackage figures WITH NEW VINTAGE CARDBACK instead of new stuff, or hell repackaging older figures that are in demand instead of figures that warmed pegs in regular packaging and then go on to warm pegs again in vintage packaging.
>>
>>10986865
>A lot of TVC are just too vocal for my taste. Since they scream more about the packaging, than the actual figure inside more often than not.
I wonder how large that contingent is. I remember when TVC started, and while a lot of people at the time appreciated the Kenner packaging (though it had been done before) the line as a whole was just looked at the same way every previous refresh was. It was just the next phase of the main action figure line, nothing more or less. I still feel that way. I just prefer smaller figures and associate Star Wars with that scale.

That place fell so far in the last few years, they used to have actual scoops and leaks but I guess their source no longer gives them info. Now it's just non-stop whining about how Hasbro isn't doing what they personally want or about how much they hate Disney. The comments sections are also a weird echo chamber since anyone who disagrees gets banned so it's just a bunch of yes-men clinging to these nobody webmasters like they're ecelebs.

It really is bad. I had to stop reading Paul's reviews because the dude just comes off as a broken record anytime he reviews a figure based on Disney's stuff.

The sequels crashing and burning hurts the older fans too, collecting-wise. They don’t even make sequel figures but because it did so much damage, Star Wars retail presence is the most pathetic it’s ever been since 1995. Even if you were a Gen Xer who hated the prequels, the prequels doing well allowed there to be a lot of OT stuff on pegs. Even if I didn’t like the movies, I wish the toylines would have been more successful. We’d be in a lot better spot right now if they were. There’s several reasons they weren’t though, both because of idiotic decisions by Hasbro and Lucasfilm.

ST got plenty of figures, at the beginning. If your trying to say that the end lacking in figures is what hurt, then your wrong, because the opposite is true; the movies doing so poorly hurt the figures, hence almost nothing in regards to RoS.
TFA had the main cast as 5poa at the very least, and I'm pretty sure as TVC/BS equivalent as well.
TLJ also had at least the main cast as 5poa, but not as much in TVC/BS equivalent (reoccurring characters, like rey, finn, poe, didnt get a new figure, but inthink that was also due to them not changing much. Kylo got BS, but so far only his first appearance as a TVC figure).
Solo suffered the consequences of TLJ, as it had a good selection of 5poa, but only the titular character, lando, and the muddy stormtroopers with a cape as TVC, I believe. Only slightly better for BS, as they got the main cast.
RoS is where things hit the fan, as they didn't get ANY 5poa (I think. It might have died with solo doing so bad, if I recall correctly). They got a single wave of TVC, which was rey in her final form, red jump trooper, a knight of Ren, x wing pilot poe, zori bliss, and an Amazon exclusive sith trooper. BS got a bit more, but not by much.

ST did massive damage to the toyline, and is probably the biggest reason we're getting overpriced deluxe figures, and getting wringed on characters like boba and daddy, though hasbro has also been making some bad decisions with stuff like making a new finn mold, when there are WAAAAAY more desirable characters that could use a resculpt, or first release. Hell, if your gonna make a ST TVC figure, give us a good, unhelmed kylo for fucka sake!

>Even if you were a Gen Xer who hated the prequels, the prequels doing well allowed there to be a lot of OT stuff on pegs.
I still remember the 10th anniversary for TPM (with 3d hype), the wave of figures no retailer wanted until WalMart agreed to take it, them it bombed and pegwarmed do hard it killed off TVC for a few years.

The prequels did help by giving us entire aisles, but they had to start working in OT toys to help sales after TPM. Around TROS we got a lot of ESB stuff. Its nice to think things could have been better. But in the end, I no longer care, if its not OT I pass, so a full aisle of DisneyWars means nothing to me.

As bad as all of the disney Star Wars Movies were they were at least able to hold my attention on the initial viewing. With "Solo" being the lone exception. just couldn't do it.

that 4th Matrix movie was so fucking bad too. That, Solo, and the latest Mortal Kombat movie I think were the absolute worst fucking movies over the last couple of years that I even gave a shot.

Matrix Resurrections was a masterpiece, plebs. A perfect antidote to Disney trash.

And no, it was not "bad on purpose", like the media-illiterates claim. It was a not a "troll". It was a sincere companion piece to the trilogy.

>he doesn't keep his figures in a windowless room
My stormtrooper from 2014 looks just as white as the day I got it.
>>
>>10989188
I don't know the science behind it but one day all my figures were white, then I put them in storage in a windowless pitch black room, and when I take them out they're yellow. I guess it took a while for the yellowing to kick in.
>>
>>10989195

>>10989195
>>10989197
It depends how they're stored, they still outgas. That's why all figures in baggies from back in the day had a hole punch in them, to allow the figure to outgas.
>>
>>10989460
So we have to drill air holes in our storage boxes like we have animals in them?
>>
>>10989463
Maybe? I don't buy airtight boxes, most aren't airtight, but I always use a nail clipper to clip the baggies I store my shit in to keep them from rubbing paint off on another figure.

Recently I had the itch to buy the lightsaber I had as a kid - the Attack of the Clones orange Jedi one. While I was searching Ebay for a good deal though, I came across this unusual one. Like the AOTC one I had, it's a repaint of the Phantom Menace Qui Gon lightsaber, but it's got a red blade and a different paintjob than either. I remember all the fully-retractable Qui Gon sabers with every color of blade, but I don't remember ever seeing this electronic one as a kid, and looking on Ebay I can't seem to find a packaged one. Does anyone know when this was sold? What line it was part of?
I managed to find the orange one for about $45 new in box, by the way. Picked up Darth Maul for my wife so we can duel. Please wish me luck, she can be very competitive.
>>
>>10989485
I want to say that's from the either the 2002 Saga line or the ROTS line, but damned if I can actually find anything to back that up

>>
Lol this poor fool. Hope he kept the receipt
>>
>>10989812
Why, it's not like he can return it. Rex is coming out in October if the rumor are to be believed. I made this mistake a few weeks ago. I paid 45 dollars for Doctor Aphra because I just gave up on that rumor from a year ago about he re release. The next day we got confirmation it's going to happen from Yakface. I felt dumb, but it was an important lesson learned. I have only over paid for three figures in collecting the Black Series since 2016, Ahpra being one of them. The other two were Clone Wars Obi-Wan and Hunter (both 45 dollars a pop). Every single other figure I bought at MSRP or well below retail.

Don't worry red box version will keep it's value. New Rex will probably be on the Archive card.

>>10990315
It's most likely going to be in it's original box. The rumors said that these reissues they were doing wouldn't have new packaging. Also, I've had a pre-order for Rex open with BBTS for a few years now that Hasbro never delivered on, however, as soon as this info about the reissue dropped, they took down the existing Rex page, and updated my pre-order with an ETA of October now.

>>
>>10992248
What about TLJ was good? Genuinely. Personally, I liked Luke's explanation of the force to rey, and reys "nobody" backstory, because it made the force seem more mystical, and universal, setting up the future with some good potential story beats, as we could no longer be bound to specific bloodlines. To that same end, random slave kid with force powers, too.
Finns arc, up until rose literally crashed that shit, was also going good up until said crash.
Praetorian guard designs and concept (even though they're basically just the previous royal guards).
Other than that, though.... Nothing else.
>>
>>10992271
>>10992299
TLJ, despite its fault, tried something new at least. TFA is just ANH all over again and TRoS is just ROTJ all over again.

I also enjoyed the return of mysticism to the Force and the idea of passing the torch on to the next generation felt much stronger in TLJ than in TFA. There's a real sense of reverence for spirituality over religion, which I think is more in line with what Lucas was trying to go for, even in the Prequels. I dislike Midichlorians but I've never bought into the idea that it took away from the spiritual aspect of the Force, just that it showed how the Jedi had lost their way in determining ones connection to it. More focused on "crude matter" if you will.

Beyond that, I like how it follows the tenets of the Heroes Journey further, taking it beyond where Return of the Jedi left Luke and showed an underutilized part of the Journey: the inability to truly return home after you've been changed by the Journey. The Journey is inherently a cycle and, should the call be refused, there's still the return of a mentor figure to guide one back into their path. I think TLJ understands the inherent tragedy and difficulties of the Journey better than most media that plays around with it, and it was refreshing to see Luke continued to be a fallible human being that had to accept that, in the end, his legend is inescapable and for all the damage it's brought to his life, it still serves a greater good.

Rey being a nobody, the visuals of her "dark side cave" and the overall meaning of it, alongside really enjoying the continued development of Kylo as a troubled kid that's diving further off the cliff because of his grief and anger. It's a compelling depiction of the effects of the Dark Side beyond "I'm evil and do evil things"

It has some missteps and I think the side plot with Finn could've been executed better, but I enjoyed what it was going for. I can tell a lot of heart and care went into it, which is what makes me appreciate it not despite its faults but because of them. It doesn't feel soulless like other Abrams and Disney slop.

TL;DR: it's neat

>>10992372

It isn't a deconstruction though. It's as much of a deconstruction as KOTOR II is, which is to say: it looks like one to idiots but really it's a celebration of the core tenets of Star Wars. Understanding the Heroes Journey, digging into faith and spirituality beyond strict dogma and how destruction of the self is an easy hole to fall into that must be avoided with the support of those around you.

Not really. I just like the designs and it would be nice for the EU in general to have a bigger footprint. Who doesn't want Jerec or Edgelord Luke? That said, even the current books and comics don't get acknowledged much with toys other than Aphra and occasional exclusive repaints. The TV shows have more or less supplanted that and Hasbro can't keep up with it.
