If anyone else needs one leave a message here.

They're very much at risk with driving the whole concept into the ground. But Dave Filoni seems to have a hard-on for double-bladed lightsabers, unfortunately.

Ah yes, the Hoplite's trusty doru/dory. A small "lizard-killer" spike on one end is quite a bit different than managing two full-size blades on the same shaft, of course.

Dunno about that, but to be fair, it's hard to be truly intimidating when you've got a hairdo that makes it look like you want to talk to Obi-Wan's manager.

Hey! Speak for yourself!

She’s too hardcore for the bunch of people going around murdering Jedi, that's awesome.

We'll see. For now, I just find her over-the-top screaming amusing.

With some fans I can safely say it's also the actress they don't want in this, but that's not the kind of thing I want to throw around lightly or point at anyone present.

Don't be such a bigot.

Why not have the orange brat get her ass handed to her for once. That would be different. That would actually be interesting.

Is there anything different about the Tarkin?

If the face is painted different, it seems pretty subtle to me.

Tarkin already had face printing the first time around, this is strictly another opportunity for people who missed him before.

That's what I thought.

Thanks!

Aayla and Maul look so good. I always hated the Inquistor disc saber thing though ever since I first saw it.

They fixed his feet. They used to point inwards.

Title Card/Poster. The symbols and patterns looks similar to the World Between Worlds from Rebels.

Chop

Ahsoka's new look

Sabine's mural. This shot is from the Ahsoka series, not the Rebels finale.

Her tentacle things look longer

I don't think she's a bad villain she's just a bit to over reckless to the point where you think "why is she even on the team? she doesn't listen"
The haslab to me is over priced. It would have to spin to justify the price and even then I have no real interest in light sabres. I have Anakin's fx lightsabre from back in the early 2000s and that's enough for me. I just don't think a lightsabre is a good fit for a haslab. I don't think its anything to do with the villains popularity.

Not TOTALLY new, since they were already done in 3.75" scale.

Actually DARK TROOPERS.

But still, at nearly $30 each, army building is going to be tough. Especially since they will likely never be seen in stores.

Wow, that Aayla looks fantastic! Also, really glad to get another shot at that Leia in Boushh disguise.

firmpulse · 06-01-2022, 10:52 AM

Snagged Fav Vizsla. What a great figure.

EDIT: 14,500 offered. They've already sold over 10k

I think I would have preferred a Clone Wars version over the Amy Allen version. But I will take whatever Aayla they will offer.

So I guess the Concept Vader/Obi-Wan set isn't going to go up on Disney's site today? Everything else is up now though.

Dormamu · 06-01-2022, 01:18 PM

Just a quick thanks for keeping the community up to date on the stuff being released Tony. Much appreciated as always.

It's supposed to be tomorrow. 6/2

Email from shopdisney about the Obi-Wan Vader concept set:

"Regrettably we are unsure of why it did not release. We have escalated it to find out."

Eh, they're going to wholesale cancel everyone's order later anyway!

Yeah, I'm still sore about the X-Force set.

Rosario has some very nice nude scenes under her belt, so that would be awesome. Unfortunately, that would only happen on something like deviantart, never the mouse house.

I admire your spirit, but kray-kray kennedy would never allow it.
