    I hope so, Hondo is on my short list of BS figures to buy, but at 65-75$, that's a tough purchase to make.

    I know Galaxy's Edge Black Series Hondo has a Maroon colored coat. But during the ride, it's full Red. Even the Millennium Falcon Hondo shows red. Thinking about the single release one.

    Not me. There are other options (granted some require some work to build or paint) for a great display Millenium Falcon. The same cannot be said for a Sentinel. At least nothing that is as detailed or will command as much presence.

    I keep coming back to the report of him being on route to Canada. I know it's super rare, bit occasionally we get exclusives the US doesn't. Recon Ravage from the Transformers line comes to mind.

    Nothing to argue here. Your opinion is valid but I don’t want to build any models anymore. Way too time consuming. My Lego UCS MF is still packed away somewhere too.

    Haha, so is mine. I've had it since launch. That said, I have finally created a space for it. Also, the Wicked Brick display stand I ordered for it finally arrived. So that will help with display space. Going to start building it this week.

    Luke looks sad...

    got my Black Series Boba Fett Prototype helmet today...shame it just is a white version of the first release with all the scuffed molded damage instead of smoothed over but its not too noticeable (and at least they filled in the forehead dent)...that's the only gripe really about it...

    My local Walmart has the Yavin Ceremony Luke’s clearanced out for $11. Bought one just to try this. ANH Luke’s ball joint is a bit small, so it’s balancing on there now. Nothing some clear nail polish can’t fix. I like it better than the original ANH Anniversary head.

    Looks so much better! I might pick up one of those Yavin Lukes and do the same. Great idea.

    SDCC@home was pretty dead with reveals. But there is hope for Fan Expo in Hong Kong on July 29th. Any predictions?

    I'm guessing the remaining Gaming Greats that are rumored and the next wave of Black Series with Moff Gideon and Incinerator Trooper.

    "Declaring himself Emperor" red robed Palpatine for me. Always loved that look, but the only toy was super gimmicky.

    Ignore the Mach 5

    20200726_094525.jpg

    Saw those little 3 inch fleet characters with mini vehicle at target today (chewie and wookie flyer and clone trooper with jetpack)...

    They're sorta decent but I'm pretty sure collectors aren't going to have much interest and kids probably won't either for the. Most part...

    I bought Ahsoka because Ahsoka. She’s alright, more articulated than I had guessed. Ball head, ball hinge shoulders, cut wrists, cut hips. Both of her tiny lightsabers are well done. The ship pack in is ‘eh’. Might grab Boba, but I probably won’t buy any others unless they put out a Yoda, Bossk and IG-88.

    I think it’s because they’re kiddified/highly styalized. If the vehicles were actually proportionate/realistic and the figures weren’t so styalized, there’d be more of a draw. Plus as with Hasbro Star Wars toys after the Disney takeover, the prices are high for what they are(with the exception of Galaxy of Adventures).
