^ I think it looks amazing... can't wait for the full trailer. I will always wonder which shots are from the original directors and which are from Ron Howard though.

Oh no... they still put the stupid "link" system with their toys...

I bought the Kylo Interceptor, and then discovered that if I wanted it to do some light and sound I'd need to buy a 30$ stupid bracelet...

Well, the original one is about $11 on Amazon right now, at least in the USA.

Hmm, might pick that up for funzies if it stays around long enough. Might be useful for a video eventually.

I misread that as "Hobo Fett". Now I really want to see a movie about Boba riding the rails, dispensing folksy wisdom.

Originals I kept are 3PO, Jawa, R2, Ben, Vader, Sand Person, Chewy, and Han. The other 4 I got from ebay to complete the BIG 12. They're so 70's it hurts !

Didn't think too much of the Solo trailer but, wasnt expecting much to begin with so in a way I wasnt disappointed. Oh well...lots of interesting SW news lately anyway.

While this could be cool, I am really hoping they weave in some pre OT things, like clones, or droids, or fetts, or jedis, so the toyline is not just 4 original char from the movie over and over again

To be fair, though, this is only the first trailer.

deecee4 · 02-07-2018, 12:56 PM

Eh, I'm cool with no Jedi being in it...they're boring anyway lol.

Tomax · 02-07-2018, 01:01 PM

I just realised that they don't give the option to convert the Royal Guard into the Legends / Expanded version like the 3.75" one

lordbest · 02-17-2018, 01:12 PM

Rejoice, 3.75" collectors.

You're getting a four foot long Sail Barge.

Anyone here play Battlefront 2(the current one)? If so:

Want to play together(DarthKamen on PSN)

Want to brutally murder Chewie in HvV?

WVMARVEL · 02-21-2018, 09:27 AM

I got some nice cases and am beginning to fill them.

Trivial Psychic · 02-25-2018, 11:38 AM

I'm guessing that Hasbro is done with the Forces of Destiny dolls? I didn't see them anywhere at Toy Fair, and they still have yet to release Ahsoka. I guess she's getting the short end of the stick again?

redfox · 02-25-2018, 10:15 PM

Found Rey at a local comic shop, yesterday. While not 100% Daisy Ridley in terms of likeness, she's the definitive Rey figure from Hasbro.

lordbest · 02-25-2018, 11:18 PM

I just received my Iden Versio and Shriv 3D printed heads from SR-3Ds Indiegogo campaign that I posted here a while ago. They are very nice, well worth the money.

Filled the case a little more with Rebels/Resistance and First Order.
