Sweet! Thanks.
Ordered de Mission Fleet Blurrg from Amazon. No hope that it will be released in the 3.75” line so securing one now.

I think we'll see one eventually, but it may be a while.
How much did you pay for it? I'm seeing prices around $30 on Amazon. BBTS has it for $14.99 + $4 shipping.
$14.99 from Amazon not 3rd party. It doesn’t arrive until late April.

I don't think it's available at that price anymore. Let me know what you think when you get it and how it compares in scale to 3.75".
Big thanks for those Insider codes. Much appreciated.
As for the newly announced 6" figures. I am now convinced that there is nobody working at Hasbro with the artistic vision that say, Doug Chiang, has. Great to choose the comic looks but failure to deliver an actual likeness. Clothes are often not matching, which is the big problem with reusable parts.
Happy to get these characters made, but delivery just isn't quite there.

Thanks!

New pre-orders from Gentle Giant...
Star Wars: Return of the Jedi™ - Boba Fett™ Milestone Statue
$212.50
Star Wars: Rebels™ - Darth Maul™ Animated Mini Bust
$50.99
Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker™ - Emperor Palpatine™ Mini Bust
$102
Two of my favorite characters, but I am not interested in animated busts and the Boba Fett statue doesn't do a whole lot for me. I assume the squiggly stuff is supposed to be smoke, but it gives it a very animated look and that with the price is enough to pass on.
I like that they're releasing something from The Rise of Skywalker, but it's not a great looking bust. I would've preferred the creepy, decrepit looking version over this one.
I think I may be getting a little burned out on Gentle Giant and the lack of quality that a lot of the products have been seeing lately. I'm just not excited to jump on any of these.

I pre-ordered Palpatine mostly because the TROS offerings have been so light since the movie came out. I like his burned fingers, but the face sculpt is a little off.
IDK why anyone would pay $212.50 for that Fett statue when they could get a way more accurate HT figure with lots of accessories and poseability for not much more $$.

These are all available on HasbroPulse, Big Bad Toy Store, Entertainment Earth and Dorkside Toys. They're $25 each except at BBTS where they're $27. I am holding until Amazon or Target gets them and I will order Maul and Carnor Jax.
Yay his jaw looks to big and squared off.
Its almost $11 cheaper at EE with the free shipping. Even with being a platinum tiered member it's still cheaper to go somewhere else.

And that's pathetic.
Qui-Gon is out of stock but you can still place an order.

Is that the only Pop! Qui-Gon to be released?
I don’t know what you’re talking about but that’s not Carnot Jax. It is Kir Kanos

Wow! I was just going from what was listed on the packaging.
I really don't know either of those characters. I just like the look, so I buy them.
Please tell me someone preordered an extra mail “just in case”?? I was at work when it hit.

Extra mail??? Are you referring to the BS6 shirtless Maul? Order one. The only place I am seeing them sold out is HasbroPulse and they don't have any better deal than the others since you have to be a Premium member to get free shipping now. I listed three other retailers this morning.

Since HasbroPulse did sell out of these, I went ahead and pre-ordered Kir Kanos and Maul from Dorkside Toys. It seemed to be the best price after shipping. Total came to $55.93.
If Amazon or Target gets these I will cancel and order from them.

Thanks for this! Didn't know it was coming out. Out of stock but I still ordered it, hopefully I will end up getting one.
A Qui-Gon POP! was released in 2016 as an NYCC exclusive limited to 2,000 pieces; it was initially supposed to be shared with GS but that didn't happen. A GITD holo version was released for Celebration 2017 and shared with Target.

I received my two BS6 Boba Fetts from Amazon. Haven't had a chance to open them yet. My oldest son and his wife came over to see the pirate ship and then my neighbor brought his grandkids over to see it. I figured I owed them since they've been watching it being built for six months and dealing with all my noise, paint fumes and sawdust. And now I am preparing to watch 4 hours and 20 minutes of Justice League, so one of Boba Fetts will probably get opened tomorrow.

I just checked email and got the same one and was very confused. Glad it wasn't just me.
Like so many people have a spare $1400 to spend on collectibles.

OFF TOPIC
Just finished watching Zack Snyder's Justice League and I have to say it was one of the best superhero movies ever. I could've used a few less slo-mo action sequences, but outside of that it was pure AWESOME!!! He made the story make so much more sense. He was not afraid to show real violence that was needed. The villains were true villains and you understood why they were doing what they were doing. I have watched the original Justice League a number of times and I still can't tell you what Steppenwolf's motive was. I am ready to help push a Justice League 2 petition.

There was so much about it I enjoyed. The original Joss Whedon version is dead to me now. This is the "real" canon as far as I am concerned.

Over 50% off, I ordered one Star Wars Emperor Palpatine The Black Series Force FX Elite Lightsaber
Thanks for the info I ordered one too I'll see if I like it, for that price it should at least display nice with just the hilt.

Thanks to you (and to Slave I for texting me). I wasn't interested in it, but my son who collects lightsabers was. He ended up buying it.
Ahhh yes. Autocorrect strikes again. I did end up ordering from dorkside and empire just in case. I really want the maul, and another one for a custom, but I’m guessing we will get a rebels or Clone wars version soon.
