RBF on that Thrid Sister is FIERCE

snake5289 · 05-26-2022, 03:35 PM

Hearing that there's a VC figure of her solves my problem of what to use for a Seventh Sister since Hasbro doesn't seem to be in a rush to do any VC Rebels. I'd imagine it would be too hard to change up.

She looks constipated. Saw image of the figure in package no 2nd head. That would be a deluxe figure. I am passing on this figure.

No way this fig pegwarms as bad as Lando... IMO this fig just screams buy me and try a whole bunch of headswaps.

The body proportions seem mismatched, as though the legs and pelvis are taken from a 7" figure. Would they use a prototype for publicity photos?

MeLikeJinx · 05-27-2022, 01:06 AM

I actually kind of like this character... she's pretty interesting... would buy a figure of her... on sale of course.

Evidence suggests not:

I would not take "best seller" ratings seriously. A common sales & marketing ploy is to present something as though it is more popular than it really is. Some people place value on compliance, and marketers know this, so they try to use it against us: "Buy this product. Comply with this new behavior. Everybody's doing it, see? You want to belong, to be part of the crowd, don'tcha?" Infamous examples of conjured demand are Cabbage Patch Dolls, Furbies, Beanie Babies, Tamagotchi, Tickle Me Elmo, GROGU...

Hasbro Star Wars Black Series 6" Grand Inquisitor, The Fourth Sister, and the Fifth Brother will go up for preorder June 1st at 1 PM EST.

MeLikeJinx · 05-27-2022, 07:32 PM

I didn't know the guy playing the Fifth Brother was Han from Tokyo Drift.

Raine24 · 05-27-2022, 08:25 PM

I had the "misfortune" of seeing the Auralnauts trailer before the real-deal, so whenever I see these guys this is all I can think of:

1:57 for the bit in question

I feel like I know the answer to this already, but is this Kenobi Vader figure just a re-release of the same Vader figure we've gotten a bunch already or is this one brand new for the show?

deecee4 · 06-02-2022, 03:16 AM

Didnt realize he has the chest piece over the tunic look on the show.

Here's differing "evidence" for you.

https://hasbropulse.com/collections/...a-third-sister

6,000 available upon debut. 4,222 have been sold. Not bad, really. But the selling has cooled tremendously. I stand by my previous statement.

Cyclopswc · 06-02-2022, 07:11 AM

True. Also to consider is that she's "#1 Best Seller" in Action Figures for that day. How many other action figures were released on that day? If you release "Green Lantern" on a weekend with no other new movies opening, I'm sure it would have been the "#1 Movie in America!" at least for that one day. She was also released a week ahead of the rest of the wave. It would have been interesting to see how she would fare had she been released the same day with the rest of the Inquisitors. Also remember that the show's trying to make her a "thing", she's definitely the prime antagonist of the show. So curiosity will certainly cause her toy to sell more. We're only 2 episodes in, time will tell if that will stick.

Direct link on Target for new Obi-Wan:

https://www.target.com/p/-/A-8479426...t_adv_xasd0002

Also, how does this Vader differ from the other 2 or 3 they've already released? I don't really see any difference and therefore will probably pass on it.

ShabbyBlue · 06-02-2022, 10:09 AM

Still no sign of the Concept Vader/Obi-Wan 2-pack on Disney's site.

As I understand it, the lapels go underneath his shoulder pads.
That's kinda it.

Thank you for the link.
How did you find it?
It STILL is not showing up when I search "Obi Wan Kenobi" on Target.com.

EDIT: Seriously, how did you find this?
There is no link to the actual product from my transaction.
I grabbed "Ben Kenobi (Tibidon Station)" from my transaction and searched for it and got Ben and Jerry's ice cream.
Well done, Target.
Well done.

Yep. I missed it until I saw this reply. This is a purchase-for-the-box art type figure.

Thanks!

JediTempleArchives had a direct link to Obi-Wan posted on their site. That's how I got it.
