I could be mistaken but I think they also announced more Movie Realization Star Wars alongside Boba Fett. There was a new Mando (with Dark Saber and Grogu) as well as IG-11 in there as well.

Strong "Batteries Not Included" vibes from this.

Batteries Not Included was my first reaction as well, seeing this. Fun little droid. I wonder if we'll get a young Leia in the Black Series line with this included. I was surprised she was so prominently featured in the first 2 episodes and driving the plot so far.

I like the look of this little droid, but why THREE different releases of it? Are they banking on this being the next cute little must have character to merchandise to death like BB-8, porgs and Grogu? Hope we don't see a bunch of these clogging up the very limited and valuable toy aisle shelf space in a year like we're seeing with Grogu now.

I'm noticing a double-bladed theme...
Ya know, aside from Darth Maul's "coolness", those blades-at-both-ends will poke your eye out! (If weapons like that were really effective, we'd see historical artifacts! Except for maybe spears with a pointy butt... I think you'd run risk of dismembering yourself! |

Good luck army building TVC Death Troopers.
The Rebel 4 pack is nice, for guys that have no action scenes on film. I mean, really. Maybe the Deleted Wampa scenes. |

I would expect to see more Rebels figures in the coming months. While nothing figure wise was announced, they did show the trailer for the Ahsoka series. Sabine, Hera, and Chopper will be appearing in it. It also looks like Rosario Dawson will be getting a new head piece with longer lekku so I would expect a new figure for her as well.
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. |

That Reva lightsaber Haslab is going to crash and burn much like the Rancor. She’s not even a likable villain, I think they overestimate her popularity.

She capable, she's ambitious, she's ruthless, she's competent. She’s a perfect Star Wars villain in how one-sided she is. We didn’t love Darth Vader for being a "likable" villain when he first waltzed on screen. We loved him because he was scary and evil as hell. Same with Darth Maul: He had two lines of dialogue. He wasn’t likable. He was a badass with a fantastic design. The lack of depth for Reva as a character is to be expected, it's her first appearance after all. I personally think she's great. Very well acted out, obviously with a personal agenda so intense that it makes her act outside of her own system and wants you to understand where it originated, and the conflict she causes within her group is so fun. She’s too hardcore for the bunch of people going around murdering Jedi, that's awesome. I love Star Wars for a long time, and I have seen enough of the Star Wars fandom to know what the problem is here. It’s not the character; it’s how the character looks. And I understand it, I truly do, masks and /or aliens look cool and sell more action figures. 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. But as far as Hasbro goes, whenever they do introduce a new bad guy with a red lightsaber you kind of have to throw out as much merchandise out there as you possibly can. If that was a good decision is always to be seen later. Probably why that saber is a Haslab project instead of actually at retail too. Last edited by RamenRider; 05-28-2022 at 11:53 PM.. |

You make some interesting points, and express them well.
A lot of the discussion here might be summarized as fussy collectors quibbling over details without knowing much about the character and how much is planned for her. In that regard, I fear getting stuck with another Captain Phasma, who seemed interesting and potentially important prior to release of the movies where she made an appearance, and whose toys flooded the market, and who turned out in hindsight to be what I would call a big disappointment. Simply, good stories matter, and I don't want to get stuck with disappointments on my shelf. |

^ I wouldn't worry about Reva. I don't know how much fans will like her by the end, but she's doing a lot more than just standing around looking cool, already being more involved and done more in only two episodes of the show than Phasma ever was across two entire movies.
