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!

Yeah, I saw. It probably dredged up bad memories of the Star Wars Holiday Special...

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.

I think Fett is pretty good for a deluxe. I didn't see them mention it on the stream but Hasbro put their own stand up on Pulse.

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.

Synergy and/or wanting to avoid spoilers. Probably doubly so this year on the Marvel side since Shang-Chi and the Eternals just got delayed again this week. They can't show stuff from the films until they're closer to release (Disney hates spoilers), so they cherry picked and showed stuff from all over their 2021 schedule.

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

I wish someone would make a good, open world, multiplanet boba fett game. I mean if his dad can get a game.....then the TRULY most feared bounty in the galaxy should have one.....right?

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

[En Sabah Nerd]

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.

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.

When I saw that Rogue I legit clapped, but then when they said Target I let out a Darth Vader "NOOOOOOO!!!!"

[NormanB]

That Drizzt figure is 30+ years in the making!

Dang might have to get into the vintage line now for the x figures... Have to see what I'm missing.

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'm hooked but the stupid site won't take my perfect ly good card that I already bought Supreme C.C. with but is trying to charge me for monthly payments on my prepaid so it won't let me. Anyone know a way to stop this? I waited on the phone 2 hours 40 mins yesterday getting no one but waiting messages.ugh This also screwed up my Quint set buy which is why I bought the card in 1st place.

I hear ya. If you have a Target it's pretty likely you'll get what you are looking for but if none in your area it can be tough. I only JUST got JW Brachiosaurus online recently & haven't got a single turtle cartoon neca figure. *Sigh*

That's the only one I'll be getting. Already preordered.

[BagJo]

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)

Never followed Drizzt’s career, but that figure does look exquisite. Really hope this gets Hasbro excited to make a fantasy line that can compete with MOTU and Jurassic Park from Mattel. There are enough classes, races, sexes, and beasties to last for years as figures, and no licensing issues.

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

[Bo Ttef]

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!
