The Boba Fett seems sparse for a deluxe figure. It would be nice to get a flight stand. I'd give up the not-so-interesting grappling hook for it. The flame and the hacked gun are nice.

Dark Rey is the dumbest character ever and a waste of a slot. Yep, even moreso than Jar Jar Binks!

I was excited about the Gambit and Rogue until I saw that they are Target exclusives. Which means I will never see them! They need to stop with this Target exclusive bullcrap!

Time for a Star Wars holiday special to bomb once again! But I’ll be damned if that Jar Jar isn’t the most enticing figure of the bunch. I so want a Hot Toys Binks but this will keep me entertained in the meantime. There will be so many photos of other figures face-palming around some Jar Jar mishaps once that releases.

Jar Jar on the other hand is basically a regular figure. 3 weapons he barely used doesn't make a figure a deluxe. |

Fett just has a fire burst and cut blaster......nothing that couldn’t fit into a regular non-deluxe box. Just a way for hasbro to charge more. Im fine with my empire strikes back version that doesn’t look like some scavenger just slapped some random pieces of metal together with duct tape.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a similar situation for Mandalorian Season 2 stuff. |

That would explain those gaudy, knock-off-ish colored repaints hasbro is crapping out.

Yeah, the "deluxe" RotJ Boba Fett for $30 is just pitiful. I don't even think the Legends deluxe War Machine is quite worth a full $30 and he blows this thing out of the water in terms of bonus accessories.

That Drizzt figure is 30+ years in the making!

I like Dark Rey, it was the best part of that whole movie (albeit wasted potential, but no point dwelling on that now.) There are lots of fans who won't mind owning that figure.
But Jar Jar...seriously this is no joke maybe the best figure they showed off today for any brand.

6” scale D&D figures COULD be an unlimited cash flow generator, if they just did $20 articulated versions of the miniatures. I realize the minis are done by Neca, so they’d obviously have to look different enough, but since Hasbro lost the Jurassic Park license, they could put all that beast-design energy into making manticores, owbears, young dragons, and Haslab Tiamat.
Mythic legions are ok, but way too much $ for many. At a price around $20 it would fly off shelves. Drizzt and other “named” characters are great for completists and conventions, but the store figures should just be “Human Male Paladin” or “Female Wood Elf Ranger” etc. collectors and especially photographers would go nuts for the line.

I had to pre-order Drizzt. Who would have thought all these awesome/old fantasy properties would be getting figures around with a year or two of each other (Golden Axe, Conan, Death Deather, etc)

If it was a critical role Mighty Nein line or Vox machina, I would seriously have contemplated ordering.

I ordered the Drizzt but would have LOVED if they had done WarDuke as their launch character

Agree! Target exclusives are now worse than Walmart exclusives! I have the Gambit and Rogue that they released recently... but I would pick up the new ones for the improved head sculpts if I can find them...

I read the entire Drizzt saga up through the Neverwinter Nights series as a teenager... this reveal almost had me in tears for a couple of reasons. Bcs of the nostalgia factor... and also because of how Hasbro has seemingly psychic powers in knowing how to destroy my wallet!
