Despite the fact that I've always hated Jaina, this is the best SW-related news I've heard in weeks. :D

I am a HUGE fan of the Star Wars 5 poa 3.75" line!!!!

I am a nuttier about articulation in other lines, but the ONLY figures we have of Star Wars is the TFA 5poa line. Since they don't stand out because they are only with each other, they look ace on our TFA shelves. Really looking forward to the Poe 2 pack. Now Ill have another Snowtrooper commander to go with the one from the Snap Wexley 2 pack... one to stand on either side of General Hux in our display.

Let the haters hate, but I am loving the news of these!!!!!

Badmoonrising4 07-23-2016 01:07 PM

all of the 5poa figs in the diorama look like they'd walk like 3p0. Looks less like a diorama made for a company display and more like a grade school project.

I myself enjoy both. But I dislike the hate for the DU, and the almost complete brush off I see the EU get. There's room for both. There's room for the New without forgetting what kept us entertained before.

Is "DU" Disney Universe?

Seeing that the guards have the armor underneath gives me hope that perhaps, one day, I could get a six inch Kir Kanos.

Startaiger 07-24-2016 09:34 AM

Well, there wasn't much reveals about the ROGUE ONE toyline, pretty strange since the movie is out in less than 5 month now.
Someone knows if there something planned what I'm not aware of??

Thor Laserpunch 07-24-2016 09:50 AM

Probs saving up all those awesome 5 POA Rogue One figures and dopey vehicles with spring-loaded missile launchers and clunky Disney Store die cast junk for Force Friday.

Force Friday is every year now?!? I thought it was just for EPS.VII.

Thor Laserpunch 07-24-2016 10:08 AM

Seems to be happening, yeah. When it stops making buttloads of money they'll stop doing it I guess.

Remember how we found out about TFA 5 POA figures? Those didn't even get an official announcement, just leaked before Force Friday.

I don't think it's going to be every year necessarily, but when there's a new movie around the corner yeah from the looks of it we're gonna get a Force Friday for it.

bmorr 07-24-2016 03:10 PM

im in for everything but Rebels and EU characters

bmorr 07-24-2016 03:11 PM

do you think they will make a 6" landspeeder at any point? id lose my mind if they actually went for ward with that

bmorr 07-24-2016 03:12 PM

also, are they even continuing with the deluxe 6" stuff?

I sure hope so but we haven't gotten or seen anything new since the Hoth themed sets, and even then those barely showed up at any retail in my area because they were choking on Jabba and the Speederbike. I'm a little surprised they didn't do any for TFA, a lot of people seem to like Grummgar and Bazine Netal and that pair could've worked well as a deluxe release like the Wampa and Luke. At least we got the Speederbike and Tauntaun sets so we can have our Imperial and Rebel mounts.

Re: a 6" scale landspeeder. Maybe but it does feel unlikely, it would be a lot smaller than the TIE fighter sure but it would still be a good size larger than any of the deluxe packs. In my area and from what I've seen online the big TIE fighter didn't sell so great so maybe it's put Hasbro off from doing larger vehicles in this scale. Though if they did do a Landspeeder a similar sized Dewback could be a good counterpart for a Tatooine themed wave of ultra deluxe packs.

Yep, I would buy that!

I watched the usual/annual Pixeldan walkthrough video from the Hasbro SW booth, they just talked about it being a possibility..
Again, I'm all for it!!

MUfan97 07-24-2016 05:50 PM

If they were put off of vehicle sets at retail, the land speeder would make an interesting Con exclusive. I mean, the exclusivity would kind of suck, but at least it would exist.

Why? They're cool man.
I grew up on die cast figures...Shogun Warriors, Voltron, etc. and they hit that same spot for me.
I get why people don't like them but none of those factors have been deal breakers for me (screw holes, limited articulation). I'm more put off by a shitty sculpts (threepio) and the human characters are pretty clunky but, in those cases I just don't buy them.

trekking95 07-26-2016 01:42 PM

All these 3.75 figures look nice but they just remind me how nice Hasbro used to make them. :( I mean the new 6 inch ones are great, but I have literally over a hundred Star Wars figures (and many vehicles like the last good Millennium Falcon) I've collected since I was 7. How can I add figures that look like more "Power of the Force" re-molds to that collection?

Mivy128 03-11-2017 08:27 AM

Man, I sure wish they would make the Luke saber accurate finally. As someone who's deep into the Custom Lightsaber community, they butcher Luke's ROTJ saber.
