Looks like Hasbro has plans for a Valentines Day Ewok:

Thoughts on this figure?
 
Not gonna lie, I thought "crap, can't skip this one" because I'm an Ewok completionist.

Would have preferred they didn't use the Paploo head and hood again, Wicket being smaller and cuter would have worked fine. Or use the Teebo head for a truly nightmarish cherub. ... They're saving Teebo for a Halloween edition next year. Aren't they?

At least this one's tangeably related to Ewok lore as per the Galaxies Festival of Love

I thought this monster WAS the Hallowe'en edition.
 
Finally, the Care Bear crossover we've all dreamt about. Hasbro has figured out a way to get me to buy TBS figures (at Ollies for $5).
 
To be fair, people keep saying "why did they make this stupid thing when they haven't done this other thing yet?"

And the obvious answer is this is a cheap repaint with next to no development costs vs all new tooling. And apparently these do sell.

So why would Hasbro not fill up the line with this nonesense. The alternative is less product produced per year.
 
I'll tell you why I'm going to get this. My beloved absolutely HATES my sprawling space doll collection.
So I can give her this as a "cute" gift, and she can either suck it up and smile, or come across as an ungrateful, meanspirited ***hole.

Checkmate sweetheart* :cool:



* or I'll get the silent treatment for 3 days before apologising.

Everyone is so excited about getting EU figures like Kyle Katarn and EU-built-up characters like Quinlan Vos, but folks are missing the real forest among these trees: between the accessories here and the Sebastian Shaw head in the TVC Jedi Spirits back, we are getting direct love to the 1983 version of Return of the Jedi. Yub nub, y'all: the despecialized OT is back on the menu, boys!
 
Got a notice that pulse is shipping these out early next week..

So I just got the email my order was shipping too but the image and description is for the Marvel Legends Series X-Men’s Nimrod Sentinel. Granted they are both pink and white but I definitely didn’t order this. My order history shows the same wrong image and description but the SKU is correct for the Ewok - G28085L00 vs. G20805L00 which is very similar. I hope I get the Ewok.

Anyone else experience this?

They do state images may vary from the final product

Didn't Transformers have a switcheroo with the Reactivate two-packs? At least they were from the same franchise and assortment

Same thing here with the same product switch so you aren't alone. I figured it was just a temporary glitch but we'll see I guess.
 
The Nimrod fig, though has an eta of March 1, 2026 though. And a different price, just keep an eye on your cc. It should be charged/preauthed when pulse acct drops the "cancel this item" link.

Interesting development though. What do your original order confirmations show?

Original order and follow-up confirmation both show the Ewok. The first thing I did was double check I didn't accidentally order the wrong pink thing!
 
^ then pulse should go w/ that to fulfill your order. It wouldn't hurt though to contact them. Especially if you see the wrong preauth charge on your cc
 
anyone started to see pending charges via pulse? I have not, yet, nor has my pulse acct page show an update- granted, i did not order on launch date, i waited few days until the tvc jedi spirits was orderable for non-premium members to get free shipping on both items
