  1. Those figures look good but the lineups are terrible. Obscure characters or obscure variant costumes are never big sellers. That's why most toy line just include 1 per wave or make them an exclusive. If want to collect this toy line with the goal of getting your favorite bridge crew in their deflaut uniform you risk never reaching this goal because this company will have to stop making these figures due to costs and low sales.
  2. No way this movie is going to make any money. Cast is too hugh and Cgi cost will be through the roof. They'll have to charge more to see it and even then it will require everyone to see it at least 2 times. Current trend is too throw hundreds of millions of dollars on the screen. Resulting in any movie not making a billion as a failure.
  3. Prequels also tried to be very kid friendly. You can't mix serious cerebral political discussions with a kid racing goofy looking cgi critters. They are too far apart.
  4. Maybe it will be inspired by the 3 Amigos? They're playing themselves. Hired to protect a village but think they're making a sequel.
  5. It looks like everything I don't want from this show. Trailer is filled with rock music and action. Andor season 1 was great show but, it was slow paced with a bunch of talking. The action scenes were few and far between. When they did happen, it had meaning. The action wasn't there to just keep people from getting bored. I hope season 2 is still like season 1. Maybe the trailer is just Disney trying to make it look more action packed than it really is.
  6. Don't forget this one too. GA0581 1:12 JUNGLE HOUND GRIDIRON Mechanized Div. (Green) 4x4 Military vehicle great for G.I. Joe Classified, Monster Force custom Action Figures
  7. If anyone was unsatisfied by the ending remember this was a show about kid characters. They would have to be the ones to save the day. Because they are kids it isn't going to involve that much violence. Nor could they have Jude have a change of heart and fight his old crew with a light saber as it would have made him the more of hero than the kids.
  8. You realize this was the Star Wars show specifically aimed at kids more than any other show (excluding the Ewok TV movies). No kids in the real world would be able to save the day like that. Kid centered fiction follows a different set of rules. If this was a show featuring adults as the leads, I'd questioned everything. Since this show is for kid and about kids, I'm judging it by a different standard did they tell a good story? Was I entertained? Did I care about the characters? To that I say yes. I'd put it up there with Andor. Both are good for different reasons. I'd even say it might even be better than season 1 and 2 of The Mandalorian.
  9. Exactly. This time it is a show featuring kids aimed at kids. Only the logic of Saturday morning cartoons apply. If one of these kids get stabbed through the middle of the chest with a light saber and survives I'm not going to question it like I would in some of their other shows.
  10. Some harsh reviews I see. Latest episode was alright. Nothing spectacular but okay overall. It is still primarily the show aimed specifically at kids. Judging by that standard its not a bad show.
  11. No complaints from me. Thought the Owl was too cartoonish but then I remembered this is the kid targeted show.
  12. It gets my seal of approval. Kids go off on adventure and encounter pirates. The tone is good. Kids can act. Watching it wasn't a chore. I look forward to watching the rest.
