Star Wars Bring Home The Galaxy Reveals
 
Ongoing thru end of year, so stay tuned. Week 1:

Star Wars Bring Home The Galaxy Reveals Week 1

Comedian 10-19-2022 11:20 AM

Ordered 2 of each. Thanks for the links!

VashTS 10-25-2022 10:16 AM

Only Hasbro want this year from star wars.

K Dubious 10-25-2022 10:22 AM

These type of reveals make me wonder why HasLab even exists...

I hope people get the things they want, but if they can willing release an almost $300 lightsaber at retail then I don't know why any of the previously offered Haslabs needing to be funded...

I'm not saying the lightsaber isn't cool, I'm just confused on how mass retail can support these releases and not others??

Tony_Bacala 10-25-2022 10:26 AM

Update:
Luke Skywalker Force FX Elite Electronic Lightsaber

Not a saber collector, but that's my Jam.

Awesome! Now I can sell my original Master Replica version, and replace it with this one.

Agreed.

Hasbro
 
I pre-ordered the Obi-wan sword via Big Bad Toy Store. It was supposed to be arriving in January. It arrived in October. I had planned funds for January, when it arrived. I didn't plan for the October release. Speaking with BBTS, seems Hasbro is notorious for doing this. It drives retailers crazy. So, expect this to arrive 2-3 months early.

Comedian 10-26-2022 10:22 AM

Well, Toyark should do well off of me. I just preordered almost $400 worth from the links at BBTS. Preordered those Simpsons Treehouse of horror pins while I was there to.

My collection room thanks you, my wallet……..

Crowdfunding is very popular and effective for small business owners, it was only a matter of time before big business got involved and used it as a tool to gauge interest. Quite frankly if that Ghost Rider Haslab hit the shelves (actual and digital) it would've been a disaster.

As for the whole Reva Haslab thing, well that stunk to high heaven and was a terrible decision all-around.

The one at retail belongs to the second biggest name in the franchise. A character well known through pop culture for a long time, with a huge fan following; and the saber can be appreciated as a piece of cinema history. There are now generations of children all around the world who grow up wanting nothing more than this saber.

The other is, well, a controversial design to begin with. Then they brought it to live-action, and took a gamble on how well the character using it would be received. Worst case? It doesn’t get backed; prototype tooling and marketing costs are wasted. Best case, people absolutely love it, they sell a ton, and now know they can sell more stuff like this later.

To make it short: With this, they know it will sell. With Haslab projects, they don't.

I may have phrased this incorrectly...

I was actually speaking about the successful HasLabs that were funded. Your point is focused more on the previously failed SW HasLabs.

In my opinion the statements you made about Luke's saber are the same across all the successful HasLabs. Marvel/Transformers/GI Joe all have decades of followers that have wanted exactly what they offered. Anything that funds in a week or less would be successful at retail and we should not have to put literal Millions in Hasbro's pocket prior to these things seeing the light of day.

Also to your point SW has the most failed HasLabs, so what makes this an obvious sell? I'm not being facetious I know SW (Luke specifically) has tons of followers and a large devoted fanbase, but if they are not supporting the products Hasbro is trying to offer it seems weird that this was instantly greenlit as a retail item.

Why does the Black Series still not have an Imperial Gunner?

User897 10-26-2022 05:58 PM

I enjoy being able to tell wally-world to piss off and my money is going elsewhere. It should be a law that they are not allowed to ever have exclusives.

Otter 10-27-2022 12:50 AM

Huh...

... Too bad I already paid through the nose for all of these when they were exclusives.

manic mailman 11-08-2022 11:13 AM

i want this boba fett deco on the new TVS Boba Fett disney+ series body

Sean C 11-08-2022 12:12 PM

$20.99 for Boba Fett "because you'll pay it".
Hasbro be like :haha

Nyctoyman 11-08-2022 02:18 PM

Boring
 
I was just commenting on the lack of different types of Clone Troopers and Boba Fett figures, lol. These figures are a total waste. When are they going to come out with a TVC Cobb Vanth?

Moose1 11-08-2022 04:15 PM

Ummm...$21.00 for Boba Fett and he only comes with a gun and jetpack? This is getting out of hand.

I often click Toyark links but I don’t always purchase at that moment. I didn’t realize BBTS could track that. I’d like for Toyark to get credit for practically all my purchases because they are responsible….hmmm so the next time I make a purchase I should start with the BBTS link here on Toyark and follow through to purchase? Or could I put in some kind of code?
Did I understand something wrong here?

User897 11-08-2022 09:48 PM

If hasblo was actually creative and the "fans come first", they should have put this Boba Fett in a package with a reissue of the TBS version, the money would have really flowed in.

Alucard1138 11-09-2022 11:07 AM

Was able to get Colt from Walmart. I keep checking Target but see nothing so far

User897 11-09-2022 11:17 AM

I see target has learned nothing and is still pulling the same shit. I'm so tired of this....

phantomtrblmkr 11-09-2022 11:39 AM

The Target Star Wars page has drops for 11/16, 11/23, & 12/14. Nothing for today. I'm wondering if someone got the date for Fett wrong.

Cyclopswc 11-09-2022 12:02 PM

Or Target's messed up and missed their available for order date. As they often do. Not that anyone cares since I seem to be the only one that's getting it, but the set of Holiday Star Wars Black Series figures, Target's the only retailer that missed the available date of 11/1 (or I simply missed it even though I was watching and searching for it). The Holiday Mandalorian is now trickling into stores, I just ordered one to be picked up at my local Target, but they're still not available for shipping online. Whereas I already received my Holiday Protocol Droid and Phase II from Hasbro Pulse, and Wookie from Gamestop. I placed the order for First Order from Amazon and Scout from Walmart, but they have not shipped yet.
