Saw a handful of the Epic Mando today at a local Ross for $3.99. So your mileage may vary.

Hard to tell from the angle of the photos, did they fix the helmet?

The Vintage Collection / Re: 2024 TVC Rebels Mural Sabine/Chopper 2-Pack
« on: September 8, 2024, 02:48 PM »Received mine yesterday. Looking forward to opening these up. The images I've seen of Sabine show a radically different look from her appearance in AHSOKA. And I'm happy that Hasbro went the extra mile there.
I opened mine last night, it’s as far as I can tell a completely all new sculpt. I was quite surprised they did not reuse some parts, especially the upper legs and pelvis. The best surprise though is it’s a swappable helmet that scales much better than the AHSOKA Sabine helmet.

« on: August 19, 2024, 10:09 PM »I managed to get three of these on clearance at Target shortly after they came out.
Such a weird release.
Yeah I think I paid less than a basic figure at Target when I got mine on clearance. As Jeff alluded to, I think Hasbro just made too many of these. Seems to be the case lately looking at places like Ollie’s and Ross.

Seen a lot of reports of this hitting Ollie’s for $14.99. My local store didn’t have it but it’s still a great price worth keeping an eye out for.

Considering they cannot release a 3.75” AT-ST that is stable and won’t eventually fall over or warp, why would anyone want to pay hundreds of dollars for a 6” version likely to have the same problems?

We all thank you for your sacrifice. Can you please finish work on a custom Tzizvvt and Yerka Mig so Hasbro makes those too?
LOL you are welcome Jeff!
I did also do a Yerka Mig too recently ( https://www.instagram.com/p/C1pWX-dOKc2/?igsh=em9jY3RtcG1iOGZp for the shameless plug) but would fully support Hasbro to steal my thunder again haha

« on: June 10, 2024, 09:03 PM »Yeah, I'm definitely not expecting to pull a profit on the second set (unless I keep it forever, I don't have the space for that). I am just hoping to get as much back as I can to help offset the cost of having one set of loose & carded figures. If I can get $325-$350 total for the rest of it I'd be ecstatic.
Separating it out may work best. Some folks may just want the bar. Others like myself may just need/want an extra alcove. And who doesn’t want more cups?

Hallelujah the great dream has become a reality. Really shocked we’re getting the Tonnika Sisters finally. Of course it happens just months after I finally finished my 15 year long customs of them…

I was looking at the bandstand alcove situation yesterday and the pic Scott posted has the proper spot for the band. It’s supposed to be slightly larger than the seat alcoves so what is coming in the playset will not be accurate if that is a concern anyone has. There should then be another seat alcove in the far back corner of the cantina, but looks like Hasbro went for symmetry instead

Got my set today. Mon Mothma came out really good, definite vintage vibe to her. Her accessory was a surprise too, won’t spoil it for anyone. Also it was a perverse pleasure opening Yak Face, lol

« on: October 9, 2023, 10:33 AM »I received an email from Hasbro this weekend saying these were delayed until November. Seen quite a few people in the UK receiving the sets.
I got the same email as well. Must be stuck on a boat somewhere.

Saw the new Krrsantan today at Target. At $33.99 it was a big pass.

« on: October 8, 2023, 09:26 PM »If they’re coming from Illinois that explains why my Chicago order got here two days earlier than expected.
Pulse has a new distribution center in Romeoville. Should improve timeliness for us FISH lol
