Let's say the guy takes a week to get to him. That'll make it, what, around the 21st and a mere two week away from this thing being all over the place for less than $10.
I will say this, that 5 POA figure looks pretty good. |

Yeah, for 5 POA figures those look really good. I'm actually excited to get them. The Black Series will obviously be my main priority but not gonna lie, that Kylo Ren is one I'm gunning for.
September 4th can't get here soon enough. |

On new Force Awaken reveals, same seller put up a Captain Phasma which went for $125 Star Wars The Force Awakens Captain Phasma 2015 Hasbro | eBay Also has Finn, BIN of $125 as well Star Wars The Force Awakens Finn Jakku 2015 Hasbro | eBay Looks like someone snagged stuff early, we'll see how long before Disney starts snooping where he got his stuff. JTA has pics of the Flame Trooper Jedi Temple Archives News: BREAKING NEWS: Flame Trooper! Worth noting that these two themes (desert and Jungle) have NOT been listed as shipping in the same assortment, so we could be seeing as much as another dozen figures before the day is out. |

Saw this on another page, but looks like some of the 3.75 figures are hitting ebay.

The first wave of TFA, minus the 2 packs:
HissTank.com - G.I. Joe - View Single Post - Star Wars 3 3/4 discussion thread Including the first look at the Armored figures (and maybe a spoiler?) Source: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...5534927&type=1 Also includes a look at the Chewbacca and Stormtrooper Armored figures. Last edited by Steevy Maximus; 08-13-2015 at 01:27 PM.. |

I've been tapping into my Force Friday fund for other random expenses, and I was beginning to worry that I might not have as much money as I need to pick up everything I want on Force Friday.
If these are the sort of 3 3/4" figures that Hasbro is going to be giving us, I'm not going to need as much cash as I had anticipated

You can hate the direction, hate the selection, but the biggest thing to me is just how WONDERFUL the packaging has been on this stuff.
Probably some of the best card design/artwork the line has seen in the past 5 plus years, easy. This full wave shot just "pops" in ways no Black, or Saga Legends, or Rebels, or Clone Wars packaging ever has https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images...ac5ab47951.jpg (From Jeditemplearchives.com ) Last edited by Steevy Maximus; 08-13-2015 at 03:22 PM.. |

Thanks for keeping your eye out Steevy. Damn, that's a lot of leaks.

And we STILL haven't seen the two pack assortment (probably another 8 figures, at least), much less Micro Machines or Black!

Yeah, my guess is by the end of the weekend, most of those will leak.

The 5 POA figures look gorgeous and then I remember they have 5 points of articulation and I lose interest

Kylo has a vintage emperor/anakin charm to it. He can actually sit in a vehicle instead of being blocked by some kind piece of plastic like past robed figures. So I appreciate that.

I appreciate the limited articulation of most Star Wars figures. Too many joints and swivels tend to spoil a character's appearance. It's why I don't collect many other licences on the 6-7" scale, no matter how good they are in other ways.
Six-inch pickings seem slim thus far. We've got the group first seen in that black-and-white photo leaked last December, but no surprises, and nothing especially catchy. |

Front and back of everything we've seen, from the same crappy cell phone.
Rebelscum Star Wars Photo Archive Still not feeling why the Armored Series cost an extra $5. About the only thing going for it might be character selection...but 4 of the 8 figures are available in a cheaper format, 2 are prior line carryovers, and the last two (Chewie and Poe) are practically guaranteed to be seen in other assortments at some point. It's like Hasbro developed premium packaging, but backed out at the last second with the actual product. I was REALLY hoping the Armored Series might have been a means of "stealth" releasing some SA figures, or at least figures comparable to the 2004-5 figures with some slanted cut joints. |

I'm sure it's coming.
But these were mostly 3.75" scale product, and at that scale BB-8 is likely better off as an accessory than a figure...heck I'm not even sure how they'd pull off BB-8 in that format. That fig is going to require some strange engineering to be interesting at all. |

Small vehicles are even starting to hit ebay! First listed are the Class I vehicles
Assault Walker with Stormtrooper Sergeant Star Wars 7 The Force Awakens Assault Walker w Stormtrooper Class 1 Vehicle | eBay Next is a Elite Speeder Bike with Black Stormtrooper Star Wars 7 The Force Awakens Elite Speeder Bike w Black Stormtrooper Class 1 | eBay (Are those knees on that Black Stormtrooper?) Important to note that previously revealed information indicates TWO Class I vehicle assortments, a standard and deluxe. A leaked mock up of Rey on her Speeder showed an open face packaging design and articulated figure. So there might yet be some articulated figures coming...you just have to buy the vehicles to get them |

The gallery slideshow has only one image with any stars in it - the shot of a Star Destroyer, with smaller ships in the foreground - and no dynamic content. Evidently, you have something on your screen that I don't.
