Fine Print instruction on the helmet: "Once you put this on, you're not allowed to ever take it off. This is the Way."

Looking at the packaging art for the Remnant Stormtrooper, I wonder if the character on the left is supposed to be Moff Gideon. The character to the right looks to have a shoulder pad. Maybe another trooper?

Ok, lets be proactive here: Where can I tell hasbro to stick their exclusives where the sun does not shine? I have had it with this stupidity.
I know hasbro pulse is not the right channel since they will tell you they have nothing to do with it. So, where?

So I checked Target.com at 4pm before I left work, still says "coming soon", by the time I got home, it was "sold out". So how many seconds did this last this time? Anyone managed to place an order?

Guess Carl Weathers signed away his likeness in whatever contract Disney made him sign, otherwise he'd probably be flaking out over and over on this figure as well just like he does on the Dillon figure.

Moff Gideon is cool, but Kuiil? That dude died last season.

Hopefully we'll be getting an announcement for a Bo-Katan figure soon. Like, REAL soon.

Really about Kuiil? He's one of my most wanted figures. I wanted Greef a lot too but don't love that headsculpt. And I can't imagine any Star Wars actor can get away with signing a contract without license rights these days.

Lol... i thought the head sculpt on Greef is excellent. It looks just like Carl Weathers from the show.

So it appears that all of the Star Wars Black Series figures are going to have single-jointed knees going forward, if this new wave is any indication?

I think we've known that since at least Toy Fair, if not NYCC 2019. They said that outright.

That sculpt looks better than the Black Series on for Greef.

Cheezah95 · 11-23-2020, 10:07 AM

oh wow first Season 2 figure! Well I guess now everybody is going to be begging for a season 1 greef.
The face sculpt is very impressive for the scale, hope it comes out as well in practice

Well in other Mando Mondays news Hot Toys in Hong Kong have received their 1/6 Mandalorian with The Child so we should see it here around this time next month. Can’t wait to get him as I’ve been waiting for him since he was first announced.

Joe Moore · 11-30-2020, 08:19 AM

No new action figures this week for Mando Monday. Guessing they didn't officially share designs with Hasbro or anyone else for last weeks episode, so as not to get anything leaked.

Has much at all been shown based on S2? The Hot Toys Tuskens are definitely based on the first episode, so they saw one at least. I would've expected someone to show a Cobb Vanth figure by now though if they knew his character.

Like last season, Disney likely kept 90% of the character designs a secret as they know they would leak if they went to toy companies. So I guess only TVC Greef Karga, the 1/6 Tusken Raider, and the 1/6 Mando and Speeder have been Season 2 toy reveals outside of some Pops depicting Season 2 scenes.

I expect we'll see additional Season 2 characters around the times that Toy Fair and then SDCC would take place.

Normally I hate NERF toys, but that rifle is nicely detailed and could look great once repainted screen accurate colors. Could even do a Holiday Special repaint.

Cyclopswc · 12-07-2020, 09:23 AM

$120 for a single load Nerf rifle?!? No one's actually going to use this in any real Nerf battles, they should have just saved it and make a "Force FX" type of weapon replica.

Yeah, it that price I would've also preferred a replica with bells and whistles.
