>>11577752Last Figure Standing is underway! Submit your top 10 most wanted figures in TVC. Find the submission form in the link as well as a template if you want to make a graphic and post it here! Submission period ends Friday, October 3rd @ 11:59pm PST>https://linktr.ee/LastFigureStandingAlso be sure to check out the dashboard that compiles all the data from previous years. Not only to see how a character you're thinking of adding to your list may have done previously, but also so you can see how characters were labeled to make it easier for the data cleanup. This will also help it consistent so that the votes aren't split for a character who may yet to be made and has multiple looks throughout various media. Example - Saw Gerrera in Rogue One versus Saw Gerrera in Andor. It's being advised that focusing on the push to just get one interpretation made into the line is better as it shows demand for that character exists period and will give Hasbro the ammo needed to pursue other looks down the road.
Star Wars is fucking dead and you faggots giving money to Disney when they clearly hate you is beyond pathetic.
>>11577753Date of the next fanstream. Unclear if this is going to just be a livestream of the panel at NYCC or a separate thing
Wondering when Pulse is going to ship my Han and shock troopers. People have had them from other sites for a while now. I'm not in a rush though, September was already very expensive with the gunship and other stuff.
>>11577754Thats the truth theyfucking hate us just look a this everyone wanted a palpatine black series and shit is locked for a shitty grigolandia convention
>>115777531) Frog Lady 2) Kir Kanos3) Carnor Jax4) Amanaman5) Durge6) Tredgar Volk (dinosaur bounty hunter)7) Mongo Beefhead Tribesman8) A'shared Hett Gasmask first appearance9) Dash Rendar10) Guri Literally the best list anyone will come up with, eat it.
>>11577819Mexicans don't count lol
>>11577846don't forget smellier
>>11577868a lot of smell pretty strongly of plastic and need to be washed to get the smell out
>>11577754You can be angry all you like, I still love Star Wars and will purchase what I like when I like cause fuck fascist pigs like you trying to control and judge others. How about you don’t come here and give your shitty opinion? Go to your containment zone and blend in with the low iq, hive-mind pieces of shit there you scumbag lowlife.
>>11577752When is this two pack going up? We get any news yet?
>>11578004It's going to be exclusive to NYCC and MCM London, then at some point later go on sale on Hasbro Pulse
>>11577946>I still love Star WarsThat's pretty dumb. Star Wars is this corpse now that I've grown to ignore. It's 1-6 and nothing more. Any time anyone mentions Star Wars outside of that, I know they're fake.
>>11578079No, Star Wars is what was released in 1977 and nothing more. You're just as fake as the others. Get the fuck out of this thread bitch.
BOoBS ! ! ! Now that I have your attention, any word on Prime Deals coming up?Any cheap deals known to come out soon?
>>11577752Source of this face?
>>11578158I think the whole point of Amazon deals is that nobody knows when they happen
>>11578174Watching the duel again, the closest to this face would be this moment, which is what that promotional pic is trying to capture. Except he didn’t have his teeth gritted for that moment.
>>11578228However, he does grit his teeth several times in this battle and the faces are pretty silly. I think they were trying to make that face versatile where it could work in several scenes and therefore it isn’t accurate to any one thing.
>>11577824None of those are on my list but I would buy them all.
>>11578174what's wrong with his right eye? it's like about to pop out.
>>11578155You're a fake fan, always have been. You don't even have any vintage figures.
>>11578229Yep. I like the face, but I still would've preferred >>11578228.
>>11577753My list is fairly basic because I think we've entered into a major "this stuff needs updating" phase:>Luke Skywalker (Bespin)>Obi-Wan Kenobi (ROTS)>Chancellor Palpatine (Jedi Arrest)>Boba Fett (TESB)>Kyle Katarn (Jedi Outcast)>Grand Moff Tarkin>Luke Skywalker (Death Star II)>C-3PO>Qui-Gon Jinn>Darth Maul (TPM)There might be some others that I'm not thinking of that I would trade for, but the thrust of it is this. Obi-Wan is probably coming. It wouldn't surprise me if Death Star II Luke is on the way either given the recent ROTJ Vaders and the ghost pack, but Hasbro is weird about that shit sometimes. Katarn isn't a major EU character and it would make more sense to do Mara Jade and Luke but I want Katarn anyway.
Turns out every fucking sw fan want that bs pack of palps and mace that shit is gonna sky rocket
>>11578553Sorry, I'm more of the autistic fan that only likes helmet characters and robots.I couldn't care less about Palps and Nick Fury.Go ahead and snatch up this over-priced set and sell me your purple clone troopers.
Who's your favorite jedi you own?
>>11578578Don't care about Jedi but dang if I want me a Lava Trooper
>>11578578I'm assuming you mean as a figure in general and not necessarily as a character. The new TVC RotS Anakin is great, but so are Sol and the Jedi Legend Obi-Wan. The newest ones, basically. They're the best. I have a soft-spot for pic related, though. I still like it despite its inadequacies (several of which I pointed out even at the time). Even with the shitty ankles I find myself messing with it more than the newer Mandalorian/BOBF Jedi Lukes. I'd really like to see them do a new take on it.
>>11578578What head is that on the far left figure
From GalacticFigures.com:>Hasbro has unveiled its 2025 Holiday Lookbook, showcasing an impressive lineup of toys and collectibles across beloved brands like TRANSFORMERS, MONOPOLY, DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, MAGIC: THE GATHERING, PEPPA PIG, PLAY-DOH and more, including releases from STAR WARS and MARVEL. While the curated list and variety of toys are worth celebrating, many Star Wars action figure collectors are taking note of the prices listed for the Black Series and The Vintage Collection.>The Black Series 6-inch figures now carry a $27.99 price tag (up from $24.99), two-packs like the Anakin Skywalker & Captain Rex set have climbed to $51.99 from $44.99, and even core 3.75-inch Vintage Collection figures are now $19.99, up from $16.99. Especially the 3 3/4" line raises questions, because this is a price increase of 100% since the inception of the line in 2010. It’s an exciting time to be a collector, but it also raises an important question: how much higher can prices go before collectors throw in the towel? Will enthusiasm for completing every wave endure, or is this the turning point in the hobby?>This year's TVC convention Fall exclusive Jedi Force Ghost 3-pack was officially announced with an msrp of $49.99, it now jumped to $57.99. It's unclear how much the Black Series Fall convention exclusive will increase in price currently.>https://galacticfigures.com/NewsDetails?id=37024Welp that about does it for me. I don't think I'll be able to swallow $20 for a TVC figure, not with how bare bones the releases often are now in terms of paint and accessories. It's going to have to be something I really, really want to justify that. This will probably kill the line altogether. I mean Deluxe sets already pegwarm as it is and now basic figures will be practically the same price? Good luck Hasbro.
>>11578841Thank you Donald, very cool.
>>11578841Hasbro’s greed knows no limits.
>>11578860Moron
>>11578870lol
>>11578841I don’t sweat Hasbro prices after moving to imports that cost triple or quadruple. I think I’m pretty much done with my Star Wars collection anyway. I’ll get TVC Padme and the inevitable Yoda to go with the gunship. Oh and ROTS Anakin and Obi-Wan I guess whenever they happen. When I get SHF Grievous, I’ll be done with 6 inch too. Unless they make anything cool for Jedi 3 and if I like the game
chris cocks can suck mine
Got the new Anakin and Obi Wan. I like them a lot. My PT shelf is done, although I don't have a Qui Gon...
>>11578990Woops, forgot pic
>>11578991>ahsokaand you ruined it by including disney shit
>>11578997She was created before Disney purchased the IP.
>>11578878I hope the buyout of EA by the Saudis doesn't fuck up anything for Jedi 3.
>>11578878>When I get SHF Grievous, I’ll be done with 6 inch tooLets hope that gets resolved. My SHF Revenge of the Sith Yoda is being held by CDJapan because of the dumb tariffs. I have no idea how much I'll have to pay by the time it gets shipped to me. I heard it's only 15% once it gets to the USPS but we'll see (according to CDJapan. Everything is in limbo). >>11579011I imagine it will. I hate EA, but they own a lot of valuable studios and IP rights. I never thought there would be a day where I said EA could get worse, but here we are.
>>11579002And Disney puked all over her and ruined her completely.
>>11578841>and even core 3.75-inch Vintage Collection figures are now $19.99, up from $16.99What the FUCK, is that real? None of those figures are worth $20. A 3.75 Boba Fett will be $40 now.
>>11578598I like the Mimban Troopers. Been thinking about giving all my troopers capes like Roman legionaries. >>11578719I want a Luke in all black so bad but I don't like having multiples of the same character and right now I'm happy with my Yavin ceremony Luke. >>11578800It's a resin print I painted.
>>11579323Imperial Shock Trooper $19.99 on Amazon....I'll just get the 2007 or 2012 reissue figures on Ebay if they haven't yellowed
>>11579324Hasbro won't probably touch the Han Solo movie for a while but I would like a vintage Patrol Trooper
>>11579376>too cheap to pay a couple bucks more to get a vastly superior product
>>11579377I hope they never touch that travesty of a movie ever again
>>11578991God, why the fuck didn’t they paint the unibrow on the 212th attack battalion clone? It’s such a hilariously incompetent thing to do.It’s such a small detail that you don’t even really register it normally, but as soon as it’s gone, the whole helmet design looks totally fucked, so there’s a 0 percent chance they just didn’t catch it. They have to have seen it and literally just not cared at all
>>11579723They based it on TCW
>>11578079Fucking based
>>11579324>but I don't like having multiples of the same characterYou're my opposite. I'd rather have multiples of my favorite characters in their various looks than a Glup Shitto usually. I don't even really get more than one of each stormtrooper, though. I'm not a typical TVC (or Star Wars in general) collector in that sense. I'm kind of restrained.I have all the Darth Vaders Hasbro have put out in TVC since Dark Times Darth Vader (and a couple from before then).
>$20 a God damn figure nowI don't know how the line continues like that. There aren't any new fans as is, who wants to buy another clone repaint for $20?
>>11580066This shit wouldn't have happened on Patrick's watch. We need him back
>>11580066I don't know. Some people are saying it won't stop them but I don't think I'll be able to continue. The only time I army build now is with the 4 packs because it's ultimately cheaper to do so but I don't even know if I'll do that. The Force Spirits 3-pack went from $49 to $57, so likely that means the 4-pacls will be approaching $70. This is just not sustainable.
I'd like to see more Retro Collection vintage 6 packs, but based on the old legends books and comics. Imagine a Shadows of the Empire set, Heir to the Empire set, a Crimson Empire set... I'd also like figures from this period in TVC but there's no shot out of like random one or two offs.
>>11580332i want a retro Jaxxon so bad
>>11579568Nice trollSorry but not all of us have salaries above $70K.>>11579577Watch it again and tell me you didn't like itRemove all the hate or apathy that was put on it during release and just enjoy it for what it was.I hate the sequels, I enjoy Andor but to me, Solo was a fun movie.
>>11580101>Some people are saying it won't stop themI sincerely do not know how that wouldn't stop them. I know waves are anemic at like, 2-3 figures now, but God damn. That adds up.
>>11580616I guess if you have a pretty good salary and no major life expenses then it wouldn't matter. These are probably the same people that backed multiple Cantinas with no intention on selling them either. But considering we've jumped from $13 to now $20 in just a few years, it's just crazy to not be phased by that even psychologically. $17 was already on the high end of my limit for the line. That's not far off from prices for 1:18 imports. For me though, I'd have to see real value in the offerings from now on to continue buying at full price and I just don't see them throwing in extra hands and shit now. It'll be status quo as usual. Guess my monthly toy budget is just going to be lumped together with my kid's from now on.
>>11580057I totally get that, I've followed other lines entirely for one character and had no interest in anything else they released. I already have Imperial and Rebel armies for Legion so I only buy figures of characters that I really like and don't want a sprawling action figure collection of characters I already have minis of.
