Hasbro will make sure they get every drop of blood from the Mando mold I'll say that.

$66.99 GTFO Hasbro Seriously it's just the same Beskar Armor Mando they have released for the umpteenth time. That Asoka looks like the regular release with a cloth good cloak and Grogu. Keep refusing to give Mando a cloth cape Hasbro.

If it came with the floaty thingy for Grogu, and an un-helmeted second head for Mando, I'd pick this set up.
As is however, no thanks.

This is cool -but only for those who don't already have all three of these figures.

That would be me. On the fence about it though since that price is pretty steep for two figures.

Low engagement, it won't sell.
Hasbro knows it....they probably increased price knowing its gonna be on clearance in 2 weeks. |

This to me is a cash grab - it's essentially the same Ahsoka and Grogu and Mando figures that were already released but with an added cloak and spear.... For purposes of display, these characters already occupy their applicable positions in my display to fill the lineup. With a windowless packaging, it's also something that i'd hate to just keep in a box and never see the figures ever.....
Yeah... i don't think so for this..... Do better Hasbro! Shareholders demand that you make stuff that SELLS!!! |

I'm kinda glad Hasbro keeps flooding the market with Mandos and Grogus though because it really discourages scalpers from hoarding him.
On a side note... there was a local collector who went all-in on the Vintage Collection Empire Strikes Back Boba Fett... like he just bought a bazillion of them. Then Hasbro released the superior VC ROTJ Boba and then nobody wanted the Empire version anymore. And then once Boba showed up in Mando classic Boba became less in demand. |

im so sick of deluxe items receive a higher mark up. its two figures which are $25 each. theres the same amount of packaging as two figures. where do they come up with an extra $17. oh thats right, they call it deluxe so it has to have a higher price tag. its BS, im tired of it and have stopped buying all of this crap.

I quite almost all my Hasbro toys buying. I compare this to gamers, if they stopped supporting dlc from the beginning, they won't be paying for half a game now.
Star Wars is doa to me at this point. Marvel is not good outside of Spidey. I won't even drop the 30 for him. Its prices plus packaging and the quality that is the issues. I didn't amass my wealth by being stupid. Is Gorgu that desirable? I never found a girl character cutesy. No appeal. Maybe im alone, so be it, but looking at comments, no one seems to care about Star Wars. As they said, "Let the past die." |

On top of everything else about this cash-grab of a set, fuck this new windowless packaging. This will 100% affect the amount of Hasbro purchases going forward if I can't see what the hell I'm buying before I buy it.
And Hasbro can kiss my ass when they say they're doing it to "help the environment." They're doing it to save a few extra cents per figure after they already jacked up prices to an absurd degree and posted record profits. I really despise what this company has become. |

A shame, that Mando's cape couldn't be made of fabric. Would that small detail really cut so deeply into the bottom line? It makes such a difference with the Fett figures. Surely, focus groups agree...?
The attempt to put Ahsoka in a sitting position looks totally awkward, but points for trying. I'd much rather have some of the characters looking more natural in seated positions as more detailed ArtFX statues, without bases. Picture Luke, Mando, Ahsoka and Grogu seated comfortably on your bookshelf, or around your computer monitor...! Last edited by Skoob; 09-22-2022 at 08:33 PM.. |
