New Rogue One poster

Nice! Will be paying your thread a visit after this post.

LOL! Sorry man. I tell you what though, my wife and I are discussing getting one of those tiny houses. Not sure if you've heard of them, but it would mean all my SW stuff would have to go. I would probably just get a handful of HT SW figures to display and that is it. Anyway, if it does happen, I'd be more than happy to sell you the Mythos Maul for retail. Like I said though, IF that happens.


Hmm, interesting. I'd be interested to see who customizes him to the proper height.

LMAO! Yup! I do that all the time. Especially with the costs for services on MAUL. I love my bike, but damn!

Glad you like it. I also did a black and white version where the only color is red on the bike and on the Maul statue. I'll probably post that up some time.

Yup! Same here. As much as I complain I still buy. Guess they have me by the balls, LOL!

Awesome man! Congrats! Spidey looks like he's about to open a can of whoopass on some SW figures, LOL! Yeah, that HT figure absolutely does.

Your self control is amazing man. I'll put everything off just to open a new statue. LOL!

Holy crap that looks awesome! Dammit dammit dammit!

I'm not sure if you stopped by my thread or not, because if you posted it didn't show up. It could be HDN having another posting problem again lol.

Dude! You can't possibly sell off your collection!!! That would be like the worst day ever!

SS has us all by the balls .

Oh the bodies on those two SS figures kind of suck. I had a hard time getting them to stay upright without a stand and when I came home last night both clone troopers were lying face down. I will have to think about the bounty hunters, I really would like to get them all.

Luke's yellow jacket is boss, I don't know what you're talking about. That outfit is okay, it looks more like something Han Solo would wear though. Nothing will ever top the black ROTJ outfit in my eyes.

What??? You would seriously sell off that collection of yours?! You're too young to be downsizing already!

You'll have to throw up that black and white picture when you get a chance.

Ah, okay. Thats kind of what I was thinking as far as quality went. That kinda sucks, but I guess since they cost quite a bit cheaper than HTs you get what you pay for.

Okay, maybe the yellow jacket isn't that bad .

Thats actually quite a bit cheaper than I thought it would go for. I was expecting this first SW piece of theirs to go around $3000 until the hype wore off.

 

[SithLord84]

Have you guys been keeping up with Celebration?

I see you posted the new poster Adam. I think it looks pretty cool. Its got a lot of colors we definitely aren't used to in a SW poster.

Here is a new "sizzle reel" as they called it at the Rogue One panel:



Also a new minute long Rogue One teaser was shown at the end but hasn't officially been put up online yet. There is a very crappy version of it up on Reddit. It does show the outline Vader in the last shot, and has the breathing.

There are conflicting reports on what they are going to show on tonight's ABC SW special. Some are saying it will be the new teaser, and others are saying its just going to be the reel again. They might be saving the new teaser until SDCC.

Yeah it's a little disappointing. I've heard their new Jawas which cost $200 for the set have floppy bodies as well.

Nice! I watched that on my lunch break. I hope they release the other teaser as well!

Its sad that their 1:6's are now as much if not even more than HTs stuff, and the quality still isn't there. At least their facesculpts have made a massive improvement since when they first came out so many years ago.

Yeah no way am I paying $260 or whatever they are asking for snowspeeder Luke. I want x-wing Luke because he looks great with his helmet on, but I won't pay over $200 for him. Might have to check on ebay. I'd like the jawas and still need to get C3PO too, but again I would need them to be cheaper. I did order their TIE fighter pilot earlier this week, it looks good in pictures. Although now I'm worried the OT TIE fighters will show up in Rogue One and Hot Toys will make them.

SS has officially fallen off of their rocker with SW pricing in all of their lines. The TIE pilot does look really awesome. I don't think SS and HT will overlap on the same character or version of the same character at the same time, so I think you're good. If HT decides to sell their 1:6 TIE Fighter from last year are you going to get it?

Ha, I don't know! HTs are better than SS in every way. I'm not sure they are coordinating any releases either, I mean they both have Vader and Fett on sale at the same time. I think HTs is just doing what they want, SS is nothing more than a distributor for them. I'm disappointed the OT figures have slowed down since TFA came out though. Seems like they are struggling to move the TFA troopers already while the OT stuff is selling out so maybe they'll go back soon. Of course with Rogue One coming out I'm sure we'll get 10+ figures from that.

The only thing I want from Rogue One so far is a Director Krennic PF, and they probably won't even make him. I'm sure HT will crank out every character thats in the movie for sure. I wonder how long until HT cranks out their first prequel character. I'm hoping we see lots of surprises at SDCC. Maybe a 1:6 X-Wing this year!

 

[STARKILLER 1138]

Yeah, I posted in your thread and in this one, LOL! My posts either never got posted or just plain disappeard. Tired AF! Spend 10 hours riding today, and I'm exhausted. Was excited to come home and watch the R1 trailer only to find out there is no new trailer to be seen. Kinda bummed. That poster looks cool though.

Adam, thanks for the link to the XM Boba. SC is actually selling it almost $200 cheaper than what I was going to get it for, so I'll be going through them instead of the supplier I had lined up. Thanks for posting that man. Same with the R1 poster.

I did have a chance to watch the Filoni and Eckstein hour long panel on Youtube while I ate.Very insteresting stuff on Ahsoka.

A 1:6 x-wing would be amazing to see, no way they could ever realistically sell it. This, on the other hand, will be at SDCC and might actually go up for sale:

I don't know what the f*** their plan is with R1, but not having a new trailer for everyone is a complete fail in my book. They played a new minute long trailer for the people there, it features about 60% recycled footage from the first trailer, and some new action shots, and then finally a reflection of Vader in the end with him taking a breath. I saw an absolutely horrible quality version of it online. I'll be honest, they totally half assed this trailer, if that. This should have been their big push for the movie, and its like they didn't even try. This should have been more than 2 minutes of mainly new stuff, not only a minute of mainly recycled stuff. And on top of that not officially releasing it to everyone, total fail.

I watched the Filoni and Eckstein panel yesterday and it was awesome! That part where he was explaining where Ahsoka and Rex were during Ep. III was so amazing, and Ashley was crying. And then Dave is like "whats wrong with you?" I busted out laughing so hard!!!

Are you going to get it?

Did you guys watch the Rebels Season 3 trailer and see towards the end who is officially canon again???

Did you watch quite a bit of the Celebration panels? I heard the costume designers said they were short of time when they did Phasma for Ep. VII and they hinted that she'd have a different look in Ep. VIII, wondering if that was true.

Whoa!!!

Are you going to get it?

Oh gosh, I don't know. It would depend on the price. I probably wouldn't even display her on it. Just like I wouldn't display the scout trooper on the speeder bike if I got it.

 

[terp_fan99]

THRAWN!!!!! Okay, that's awesome! Did they just make Wedge's origin that he was a TIE fighter pilot?

I've seen quite a few so far. I'm going to watch the Mark Hamill one tonight at some point. Its an hour long so thats awesome!

THRAWN!!!!! Okay, that's awesome! Did they just make Wedge's origin that he was a TIE fighter pilot?

It gets better, Timothy Zahn is writing a brand new Thrawn book thats coming out next year!

That Wedge thing is crazy! Can't wait to see how that turns out.

I'm really hoping that since they brought Thrawn back into the canon, they will somehow bring Mara Jade back into it as well.

See! That is what I love about HT. I'd love to see something like that in 1/4 scale, but since the Scout on speederbike didn't sell well, I doubt we would.

I know! LMAO! I love Filoni man. That guy knows Star Wars and knows fans.

I knew they'd do something like that. They are saving the money shot for the theaters. Still, I was hoping for something more than what we got before.

WOW! I got goose bumps! Maul, Hondo, Rex, and while I'm not a big fan of Thrawn, it was cool seeing that. I still need to watch Season one, LOL!

I was hoping for something more too. But since they included Saw Gerrera in this movie, hopefully that means we will see other characters in this from the shows. I'm still really hoping they are still including Cad Bane in this. I haven't heard anything about that in a long time. I'd also love to see them put Ahsoka in a real movie too, or at least mention her. Ideally I'd love to see her get her own movie eventually, and they should let Filoni direct it.

The reel they played yesterday does look like it confirms Jimmy Smits is back as Bail Organa:

I know a lot of people that really like Thrawn and were pissed when it was announced he wasn't canon anymore. I even saw people online actually saying they wouldn't even see any of the new movies because of that. I haven't seen anyone making comments like that since the VII came out, so I assume they all moved on from their little pouting episodes lol. But its really cool to see they are putting him back in for the fans that really liked him.

Don't feel bad, I only watched the Rebels episodes with Vader in them LOL. It looks like Aladdin is a little older in the third season, maybe if they keep aging him as the show goes on, that could make the show fully watchable in another 2 seasons LOL!
