See, I disagree.  I see a definite pattern there.  It just isn't one we understand.  A slightly more coherent pattern to the front might have helped but there is a design there.

Late reply, but I'm actually not referring to the Falcon.  I'm more thinking of the original designs they made for the movie.

Mentioned it before, but clearly someone on the staff had been trapped in their cubicle so long, they must have gone nuts, glued handlebars to their cubicle wall, and tried to ride it around the office.  And, apparently that was the best idea anyone could come up with for a vehicle design.

There's obviously some practicality to it, but good grief people.. have they completely forgotten that the idea of making merchandise is to design things that people might possibly want to buy?

I asked the usual suspects, but then...

I found the spring trigger thing... broken. This toy has never been used BTW, just displayed.

so i took the springs out, as no wings remain in place.

Happened to mine after the big cross country move. I haven’t had time to fix it but also don’t got the damn room to display it.

I just got back from a trip to Disneyland yesterday. Got to check out Galaxy's edge for the first time and really enjoyed it. I did the Custom lightsaber experience which was awesome and picked up a Rey legacy hilt. Building the custom lightsaber was so much fun and I think it turned out pretty cool; And the Legacy saber is a thing of beauty.

These are my first adult collectable lightsabers but from what I've read the legacy line is definatly better than the older master replica and black series Force FX sabers. The legacy sabers use interchangeable RGB blades so you can display/wear just the hilt and they have color change on hit which is cool (Rey's flashes from blue to yellow and my build-a-saber flashes from violet to green). The sound is also supposed to be better with more unique noises. The only thing I don't like is that the motion noises aren't very responsive.

About time they did a Star Forge robes version of Revan.

But not into the scale, don’t enjoy that it’s an exclusive, and really wish they had made it so the hood could be moved left or right and not restrict head movement.

Another Black Series Revan?  And they STILL won't put him into on-screen canon anywhere??!?  Seriously, I'd rather have 5-secs of cameo/flash-back Revan somewhere, than any figure, at this point.  Just make him "uber-official". 

The decision to make Revan is a Hasbro one with Disney's blessing.  Not a decision specifically by Disney.  Also, Hasbro knows the new trilogy stuff doesn't sell but there's good will to the old stuff and EU so they take stabs at it on the occasion afforded them.  Also, mold reuse is cheaper to do.

kinda nice.  wonder how close to the photo it looks.  i thought about springing for the sh figuarts one but its a lot of $ for one figure, a throne and some background statues (the imperial guards are not articulated so far as i can tell).  if one were to get this, and two ~$15 black series imperial guards you could be all set on the emperor...although those cloth robes on the imperial guards don't look as nice as the static figs on the SHF.

I don’t have the grinning head on him right now but this is how he looks.  Damn cat fur...

To be honest, I didn’t mind Rose. And to think about it, I don’t think I really disliked any characters in the new trilogy. I think plot and writing were the real problems. Especially in the case of the second film in the new three. I still want to see the third one good or bad. It probably won’t be the worst movie I’ve seen this year.

I’d buy that.  The only Black Series 6” figure from The Mandalorian that I’ve skipped so far is the Offworld Jawa.  I’ll wait to see if it gets discounted.

I don’t really collect Funko Pops but I’ll take these as Black Series 6” figures as well.
