Did you ever hear the tragedy of TVC Obi-Wan's knees?
>This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywalker, forever:>The first dawn of light in your universe brings pain.>The light burns you. >It will always burn you. >Part of you will always lie upon black glass sand beside a lake of fire while flames chew at your flesh.
>>11744028>You can hear yourself breathing. >It comes hard, and harsh, and it scrapes nerves already raw, but you cannot stop it. >You can never stop it. >You cannot even slow it down.>You don’t even have lungs anymore.>Mechanisms hardwired into your chest breathe for you. >They will pump oxygen into your bloodstream forever.
>>11744029>'Lord Vader?'>'Lord Vader, can you hear me?'>And you can’t, not in the way you once did. >Sensors in the shell that prisons your head trickle meaning directly into your brain.>You open your scorched-pale eyes; optical sensors integrate light and shadow into a hideous simulacrum of the world around you.>Or perhaps the simulacrum is perfect, and it is the world that is hideous.
>>11744031>Padme? >Are you here? >Are you all right? you try to say, but another voice speaks for you, out from the vocabulator that serves you for burned-away lips and tongue and throat.
>>11744033>Padme? >Are you here? >Are you all right?>'I’m very sorry, Lord Vader.'>'I’m afraid she died.'>'It seems in your anger, you killed her'
>>11744035>This burns hotter than the lava had.
>>11744037>No…no, it is not possible!>You love her. >You have always loved her.>You could never will her death.>Never.>But you remember…>You remember all of it.
>>11744038>You remember the dragon that you brought Vader forth from your heart to slay. >You remember the cold venom in Vader’s blood.
>>11744041>You remember the furnace of Vader’s fury, and the black hatred of seizing her throat to silence her lying mouth…
>>11744043>And there is one blazing moment in which you finally understand that there was no dragon. >That there was no Vader. >That there was only you. >Only Anakin Skywalker.>That it was all you. >Is you.>Only you.>You did it.>You killed her.>You killed her because, finally, when you could have saved her, when you could have gone away with her, when you could have been thinking about her, you were thinking about yourself…>It is in this blazing moment that you finally understand the trap of the dark side, the final cruelty of the Sith —>Because now yourself is all you will ever have.
>>11744044>And you rage and scream and reach through the Force to crush the shadow who has destroyed you, but you are so far less now than what you were. >You are more than half machine,>You are like a painter gone blind, a composer gone deaf, >You can remember where the power was but the power you can touch is only a memory, >And so with all your world-destroying fury it is only droids around you that implode, and equipment, and the table on which you were strapped shatters, and in the end, you cannot touch the shadow.
>>11744045>In the end, you do not even want to.>In the end, the shadow is all you have left.>Because the shadow understands you, the shadow forgives you, the shadow gathers you unto itself->And within your furnace heart, you burn in your own flame.
>>11744046>This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywalker.>Forever…
where are all the astromechs they used to be plentiful now both 1/12 and 3.75 are barren of trashcans
>>11744011Why do stores like target even bother ordering exclusive items if they wont even manage to have them available in stores by the time when the toys are supposed to come out for the street date?
does anybody own gentle giant busts? how do they look up close?
>>11744156Because toys are the lowest priority for retailers like Target and Walmart. They don't care. Toys are only profitable two months out of the year. Consider it lucky they still stock toys at all.
>>11744022They have made so many knees and never had to do this before so why now? Maybe because they reused the thighs from someone else, I think Light Cruiser Luke maybe. But really shitty they weren't bothered to give a little extra budget to fucking ROTS Obi-Wan
>>11744098We at least have regular droid releases with the Disney Droid Depot stuff for 3.75. I think there must be some kind of agreement between Hasbro and Disney to let the majority of droid releases happen in that line which is why they're so rare in TVC.
In not much of a surprise, the final showdown between Luthen and Pong Krell for March Madness 2026 ended with Luthen as the winner. I believe he's now the first character to become the back to back MM and Last Figure Standing champion
>>11744418Honestly insane to me that people want him this badly, he’s a boring, stand around type of character. And it’s not even like we have a ton of Andor figures to begin with.
>>11744403what about the 1/12 droids then? hasbro tooled a new body a few years back, with three diffrernt heads, and has hardly done anything with them
>>11744022It's all so tiring
I got Bacara, now I need some marines.
I prefer Legends but she is based and amazing
>>11744424He's compelling. I don't see the issue with it. It's like saying we shouldn't have Tarkin either because he mostly stands there. And if they made him in the same look the Black Series did, then that would actually go with the main Cassian that we have.
>>11744434Don't have an answer there. It might be just because it's more expensive to produce them so they have to be selective about when they get released in order to average it out with the rest of a wave. This is partly why I gave up on 6" because it was too few and far between to get aliens and droids. It's just mostly troopers over and over and over again.
>>11744418Absolutely disgusting. Anbore is NOT Star Wars. Anyone that voted for this is not a Star Wars fan.>>11744424He will pegwarm just like the black series did. I think at this point it is just the Banthaskull audience still participating in this.
>>11744156Lmao wtf is this shit?
>>11744156Star Wars really is dead
>>11744481Truth
>>11744543There's no reason to ever buy Star Wars for full price
>>11744458i think the past couple years has been pretty decent for ayy and droid fansfar better than pre 2020 at the very least i wish it got even a third of the love 3.75 did back in the late '90s - early '00s but that's not likely these daysi think the big problem atm is that star wars has been very incestuous since tros and they're effectively unwilling to leave the imperial era, and the only show that didn't took place in the high republic that nobody gives a fuck about (along with being shit but that's aside the point)at least they're slowly testing the water with eu stuff, but idk how well it actually sells considering most of it is over 20 years old at this point
>>11744777>i think the past couple years has been pretty decent for ayy and droid fansYou are very incorrect then. It's been sparse and extra shitty on top of that since they try to make everything overpriced now.
>>11744418Why does everyone want this boring middle age normal looking dude as an action figure so fucking badly? Honestly at this point ill Fucking say it, andor has ruined star wars more then even the sequels have with how much the normies retardedly glaze that boring overrated shit show and now expect all future star wars content to be like andor shit.
>>11744782i agree with the price for sure but for ayys and droids it's miles better than it was in the red line eraback then it was just the shitty astromechs, the rare 3p0, chewbacca, and the occasional ugly sequel alienis it amazing now? no, but i still remember how dire it was beforei think the real culprit there not being any media for a could years aside from andor, which seemed ashamed to be star wars at allwhile i don't have any faith in the quality of the new movie or the maul show, hopefully the latter at the very least will get a couple ayys and droids made into figures
>>11744786didn't people make fun of all the boring senator figures back in the prequel years? at least some of those had the excuse of being aliens instead of just a dude
>>11744786Honestly the idea of more Andor figures is hilarious because the Andor audience is exactly the type to not want toys of their mature Star Wars for mature viewers because toys are for babies
>>11744786lol
>>11744786>Why does everyone want this boring middle age normal looking dude as an action figure so fucking badly?I mean....It could be worse. At least Luthen is a pretty well written character and doesn’t have such a stupid name.
>>11744910>comparing space dracula to some guy in a coatanon please
>>11744910Dooku is much cooler then that boring piece of shit andor slop OC, kill yourself fake fan
