Got some stuff from GTP Toys in today since they were on sale and I was curious about their quality. Think I'll be getting a set of the walls since I was pleased with this stuff. I'm sure it said in the description but I was surprised that the barrel and boxes were rubber, figured they'd be hollow plastic. My crate empire continues to grow.

Banthaskull is not letting Hasbro get away with their excuse that it's the market's fault that they're putting out only a few new TVC figures a year.

https://www.banthaskull.com/story/news-hasbro-blaming-the-market-for-the-shift-to-six-inch-is-peak-frustration?

TLDR-

>Hasbro did similar things with TVC in the past
>Repacking lots of figures that have already been released before and therefore there was no longer much fan demand for them
>being cheap with the figures, such as casing joints in the wrong colors to save money or using cheaper plastics that yellowed
>They got so cheap with the line that they cancelled it entirely and replaced them with 5POA figures until they realized that 5POA figures of new characters that nobody wanted didn't sell.
>When they brought back TVC they repacked characters that nobody wanted or asked for just on new cardbacks and then acted like it was the fans' fault that they're not making more stuff, because they fucked up with the heavy repacks of shit nobody asked for.
>Hasbro wont just admit that they want to discontinue 1:18 figures in favor of 6-inch figures because of the higher profit margin they make.

Encase nobody saw it:

>Temuera Morrison, the actor who played both Jango Fett, Boba Fett, and the Clone Troopers has joined the cast of The Mandalorion for Season 2, and is allegedly playing Fett, who is said to have a small role in the season. There's also rumors he could be playing Rex in the show.

The cast already includes Michael Biehn(Terminator and Aliens actor), who is playing a bounty hunter from the Mandalorian's past, who is said to have lines that reference his past roles in various movies. Concept art shows him dressed in what looks like a Mudtrooper outfit. Rosario Dawson is also cast as Ahsoka Tano, and will presumably be part of Mando's quest to find someone to raise The Child. There's other rumors out there that characters from the show Rebels could appear. Actress Jaimie Lee Curtis had also been on set for season 2, and it's unclear if she's in the show or not, as rumors said it appeared they were trying to get her in the show, and she did wardrobe fittings and even had her head 3-D scanned by Hasbro for the possibility of an action figure. Her character, whoever she was supposed to play was allegedly going to appear in season 2 in a small role, but be important in season 3. She may not be in the show however due to scheduling conflicts she may not be in the show, or at least her part has been scaled back. Other actors such as Bill Burr will return, along with Ming-Na Wen, who played Fennec Shand and was supposedly shot to death, will also return for season 2.

And how much did the prequels and EU constantly vomit out in the name of fanservice? I think baby Yoda was a stupid idea, but the conflict and choice of setting are what set Mandalorian apart. We've had material in the EU that revolved around bounty hunters too, but Mandalorian still distinguishes itself because of its central plot line.

If the show has any problem it's not being too similar to other Star Wars content; it's being overly derivative of other properties.

Which works because Star Wars was originally derivative of similar source material. Only instead of Hidden Fortress, it's Lone Wolf & Cub.

Come to think of it, would Mandalorian have been even better if it had gratuitous bloodletting?

Maybe, but even the original movie cohered into something that was pretty radically different from any given inspiration it borrowed from. Mandalorian tends to ride its genre tropes pretty hard. I still like it, but some episodes feel like they were written on autopilot and they don't have the stylistic panache to back up the cliches. When the show does work it works well though.

Throw in the awful effects, awful puppetry, CG, and makeup, on top of the directing of the eps...and the pacing...and the wasteful eps...yeah, there's nothing good about Mando.

Black Series is best if you want to pose them. Only downside is if you want non-main characters or troopers you’re left waiting for a long time on the off chance they make your favorite slightly more obscure character. 3.75” pretty much has made any character you can imagine but obviously the pose-ability isn’t as good in most cases and also you’re pretty much going to be exclusively dealing with secondary market.

What characters do you like?

Yes, Black Series in general will mostly be more poseable than the 3 3/4 scale. Another point for TBS is that right now that's what Hasbro is focusing on. We get more of those each year, than The Vintage Collection.

However keep in mind that 3 3/4 scale has a good 35+ years on 6 inch scale.
The Black Series will never catch up to the original smaller scaled figures; There are just too many characters, vehicles, monsters, and playsets they would never make for various reasons.

I don't watch CNN, I watch Tim Pool, and the Illegals aren't being kicked out, they're being detained for an undetermined amount of time, which is the worst of both worlds, since they are either being treated properly, and it probably costs as much if not more than just letting them run free and take our jobs, or they are being held in inhumane conditions, which is a civil rights breach. Either way, they're still in the country.

How would you guys save TVC? Give your ideas.
For me:
Several waves every year would need to be related to current media, and should release concurrently with the associated media in order to sell more based on hype. Imagine how well TCW Vader or something like that would sell if it were announced the same day as the last episode aired. Same with how there should have been a whole wave or two dedicated to TROS that would have released half before the film and half after. This is where the main portion of the money would be coming from.
One wave per year at least of expanded universe figures, they are extremely popular despite how much D*sney hates them. This would be to please collectors and fans of the old EU.
Maybe one wave of GOOD repaints/retools. And I mean good. Like TVC Fordo or Grievous good, not repaints of shit from the legacy collection or whatever. And repaints should have more effort put into them than they have currently, take the TVC AOTC clone trooper for example: They added completely unnecessary faceprinting technology when they should have just designed a nicer quality non-removable helmet on a double ball peg, and they should have changed his chest armor to be shiny instead of the weird rough matte that it is now. These would help people new to collecting get into the lines with updated versions of figures that could be very expensive secondhand.
Finally, one or more waves could be dedicated to some sort of theme, whether it be a whole film, event, battle, etc. Like "bounty hunter wave" or "Hoth wave" or "The Phantom Menace wave" or what have you. This would be very exciting for people looking to get into collecting as well, as they could immediately have access to a group of related characters. Also army builders would probably squirt in their pants if a wave of four different trooper figures came out at once.

This is what pisses me off the most. Hasbro SHOULD know better by now, and there are tons of figures that have genuine high demand that would easily sell as repaints or even just straight repacks, but they insist on doing stupid crap like reissuing a figure that already pegwarmed several times before but now with faceprinting.

I think the line would have done better if it just treated the revival as a reset, like TVC was from the Legacy Collection, or at least was more willing to revisit characters that need new figures even if they're already represented in TVC. People that only care about collecting cards would probably be upset, but a lot of people just want the big name character figures and many of those figures were either mediocre or a repack of something that was already past its expiration date. Even if not every new figure was an unequivocal upgrade from the old, I still think this would have gone further to hold interest.

The rest is really just a matter of doing good sculpts of new figures/characters and doing it more often. But there's part of the problem: it's all attention that Black Series is attracting. I'm just not sure having TVC and TBS both operating at full potential is feasible, and their focus on TBS is probably the right one.

So obviously a black series millennium falcon will never ever ever happen, and rightfully so. But why has no company ever made a six inch scale cockpit for it? It's a scene set that all the main characters crowd into at least once a movie, after all.

More than 12 figures a year. Minimum of 20. 30-50 would be best.

At least 2 playsets like the carbonite wall each year; One should be either Jabba, Cantina, or Death Star focused, while the 2nd being another of those 3 or a whole different location.

Bring back deluxe price points. We need monsters, small vehicles, mounts, 2 packs, and mini playsets.

Like you said brand new from the ground up Clone Trooper figure. This baby will be designed so you can have a phase I helmet, phase II helmet, or clone head with removable helmet. With this in place just look at all the clones you can remake or make for the first time with only a simple paint job.

Finish updating the original Kenner line.

Update all the iconic main characters; ANH Luke, ANH Leia, Bespin Lando, ROTJ Palpy.

Finish off the creature cantina & Jabba's palace.

As you said; Make sure we have TCW figures in time for TCW, Mando figures in time for Mando, Fallen Order figures out at the same time as Fallen Order, and so on.

As you said, more EU.

Bring back Saga Legends subline of simple repacks and repaints that let kids and collectors catch up on earlier figures that wouldn't be considered "good enough" for TVC. Also good place for simple army builders.

Then just weathered it with a black wash and silver sharpie.

Not for 3.75" fans, you mean. At this point I suspect The Black Series has stronger overall collector support, and would no matter what the TVC revival looked like. I could be wrong, of course, but I'm guessing there's a reason Hasbro revived G.I. Joe at 1:12 too.

I'm a big 3.75" fan. But it really does feel like those days are over.

I don't know if it destroys the character. It adds an unnecessary backstory and doesn't really do much to flesh him out or really add any new dimension or understanding to the character the way a lot of backstory pieces do, but it doesn't really destroy Han. At best it just wastes its potential and does nothing with him and just leaves him as a flat character, which frankly he's always been since it was Ford's performance that really sold him.

That's been the name of the game since TPM in 1999, but that doesn't make Solo any less egregious and boring. Han Solo was interesting because of the specific context Star Wars put him in and how TESB built off of that; to me a Han Solo prequel is like a Spider-Man prequel set years before Peter Parker got bitten or a James Bond prequel about Bond's time in the navy.

Even shit like Anakin's very first Vader prostheses being the suit we all know and love feel like overly reverential pandering, same for the Death Star cameo or even Palpatine's face (as if anyone would question that an evil wizard's face would change over decades of being an indulgent evil wizard). The prequels aren't as bad about it because they have a broader focus and tell a bigger story, but there are plenty of the usual self-obsessive symptoms of prequelitis.

You're not wrong. In a sense it would have been even more shocking to leave Palpatine looking normal, so you're left to imagine how years of dabbling in the dark side twisted him into the shriveled husk he was in ROTJ. But no, he's apparently been rockin the same pruneface and nuclear eyes since he was young.

Also re:Vader's suit, that would have been a golden opportunity to use one of Ralph McQuarrie's unused early concepts for the suit. That would have been a relatively deep cut for the nerdier fans, yer recognizable enough for the casual moviegoer. It would have also showcased how tech changes and evolves over time in this universe.

I enjoyed Solo a lot more than I expected, especially watching it after TLJ. Yeah I thought it was dumb that literally everything significant about Han happened over the course of a few days and some of the changes to his backstory were dumb (at least they kept him joining the Empire/flight academy) but overall the tone of the film was enjoyable. I liked the western heist feel of it and you can tell there was a lot of love put in by the designers and FX studio with all of the background aliens and characters that looked way more interesting than the shit from the sequels. The worst thing about the movie (besides Enfys Nest's face reveal) was that Aurra Sing's death was just a throw away line. It would have been awesome if she was actually a secondary antagonist going after Beckett and we got to see her on screen.

While selling Sideshow Cody to upgrade to Hot Toys Cody is almost a no brainer, I'm feeling conflicted whether or not I should sell off my Sideshow Rex to get this one. Sideshow Rex came out during the time Sideshow updated their Clone Trooper molds (with new, better helmets and all) while Cody does look pretty outdated comparing to his Hot Toys version. I do prefer Sideshow Rex's helmet to this one though. The edges of Hot Toys Rex's visor look too short. It should reach further to the sides.

The Hot Toys clones kinda look weird proportionally in the pictures though. I'm worried that the Hot Toys version would look weird next to all the other Sideshow clones. But that paint and all the accessories look fucking good. Also, it would be too easy to sell off Sideshow Rex to buy this figure with leftover funds.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Sideshow (USA-based) and Hot Toys (Hong Kong based) are two different companies but they had a deal where Sideshow became the official distributor of HT figures in the States while Hot Toys became the official distributor of Sideshow in Asia.

In terms of their Clone figures, I think the HT figures are completely new. New paint, new molds, everything. But I feel like since Sideshow used CG models for their clones, you can't really improve much upon the mold besides paint and weathering so they look pretty similar. I would assume materials should be way better on the HT too.

Looking at HT Cody alone, it comes with some new accessories (more holograms, a new base, etc), sharper details like his shoulder antenna, and a WAY better helmet, much closer to Sideshow's Gen 2 Clone helmet that first came with their Deluxe CT (https://youtu.be/tR0rHFjKSRo?t=49). Sideshow Cody looks way outdated compared to the HT.

Fuck off dude. They were received badly because they were BAD MOVIES.

Look, I like Rogue One. I think it's the closest thing Disney's done to capturing the feel of Star Wars while not trying to ignore the Prequels like a bunch of assholes. It felt like a continuation. But fuuuuuck you if you think it's a good movie. It's got some great shots, and like I said, feels the most like Star Wars, but the actors suck, the characters are forgettable and bland, the whole purpose of the movie existing is forced and unnecessary, it existing makes things messier. There was no "plot hole" about the DS plans or the exhaust port weakness, people that think that are fucking retarded and miss the point of the Empire overlooking something so small. It's about being overconfident in their might.

We don't see Han become a great pilot, have to kill a guy for the first time, learn to play cards, or anything like that. He just already is the character he was in ANH but younger.

Another thing is how quickly we breeze by events. Vampire Caterpillar Oliver Twist? Already off planet.

As far as the movies go.... I think I have to agree. The sequels were dead the minute they decided to make them without a damn plan. Even George had a basic plan for the prequels.

As for other stuff, Clone Wars doesn't count since that didn't start with Disney. Mando tho... I really like Mando.

The 3.75.
I really have always enjoyed Star Wars but the frustration at the lack of articulation makes me hold off a lot.
Maybe I 'm "spoiled" with other lines.
But I just think Hasbro will keep doing what they are doing because they think that for some reason kids are just as happy with non pose-able figures. (I know I wasn't) and when they keep producing "shovelware" will complain that the line isn't selling.

It's $10 while the Prog 2-pack was $6-$7. It is terribly overpriced for what it is, especially since it's based off of trash DisneyWars. But still I laugh that people are still giving Disney their money.

Why does clone trooper armor look so cool. Is it because since they're all clone they managed to express themselves by giving each other names, and customizing their armor. I honestly wished that OT/ST Stormtroopers had this level of customizing.

It had a collectible coin in the right side of the bubble but mine is completely missing the mold part for the coin. Should I report the seller? Also is this a common scam?

This is a complete lie.
If that were true 1:18 figures wouldn't cost nearly half as much as their larger scale counterparts

The reason 1:12 is pushed so much is that companies and stores would rather get $20 than $12. Retailers favor it especially because shelfspace per dollar amount is better too.

This is also a reason why multi-packs and comic packs were a thing with 1:18 figures, where you got two figures AND a comic book for about 25% less than if you were to buy two 1:18 figures separately.

Would it benefit TVC if they just dropped the meme packaging and packed figures in plastic tubes or something? That way they would take up less space, so you could put two of them on the shelf in the same space that would normally fit one, and you could fit like 32 to a case instead of 8.

I'm 100% sure Hasbro has researched the shit out of how enticing packaging is for kids/moms/collectors, which is why 1:18 packaging has been practically the same size since the 80s for pretty much every single Hasbro line and even other toy companies.

I think it's something Hasbro should still test out in practical terms, especially since packaging in itself is fucking expensive. Check the cost break downs in jpeg.

So is it more cost effective for them to do things like 3-packs, since they can sell 3 figures with only slightly more packaging? Would it help out the line to issue more 3-packs? Because I love 3-packs personally and I think that they should be more popular than they are now. Also I like the idea of cheaper army building packs without "muh vintage" packaging. I don't even army build but I would totally buy a set of several RO stormtroopers or whatever and I'm sure a lot of other people would too.

The cards are popular on their own merits, and always have been. Moreover, all things considered, the vintage cards are pretty unobtrusive as far as packaging goes. You can fit a fair number of them on a peg; I don't think that's much of an issue. It's true that packaging in general is expensive, but the fact they brought TVC back instead of merely continuing the 3.75" TBS line or some other packaging suggests that either the packaging isn't all that much more expensive than other packaging they use or that they've determined the difference is worth it to sales.

Either way, TVC's problems are endemic to the figures and the mission statement of the line itself as well as the composition of what they've put out (and how little they've put out) since they revived the line. The reasons and answers to those issues are an issue of their own, but I doubt packaging is the problem.

They USED to do 3 packs almost routinely, but that fell out of favor for the 2 packs.
So i think that's probably the best cost to price ratio for them.

And you just reminded me that i saw people bitching about vintage packaging in one of these threads.
I don't understand that shit, but whatever. IF it sells and catches people's attention, that's pretty important (for Hasbro, kids, and collectors).

I think it's harder to sell multipacks, because you start to include characters some people would prefer not to get. So 3, 4, and 5 packs might be a little too much to sell because you have an increased chance of including something someone might not like.
Plus that entire cost thing, because you generally want to keep it at $20.

There's a reason why 6" figures have remained at that price for long time now, despite costs undoubtedly increasing. I have no doubt that 1:18 figures currently have a higher profit margin because of that.

You can make the comparison from top to bottom or from bottom to top. From cost to price or from price to cost. The result is always the same: companies find that 1:12 has the better profit.

What you see is them struggling to make 1:18 at the price that people are willing to pay for them, while they can comfortably make 1:12 figures and sell them for $20.

The Mandalorian was a huge success, why wasn't there more in the way of tvc?
>Repaint a Stormtrooper as an Incinerator Trooper with some new accessories
>re-release biker scouts with speeder bikes
>repaint Jawas as Offworld Jawas
>re-release and recard Death Troopers for The Mandalorian
>put out an individual carded version of the Klatoonian Raider that came in the AT-ST set.
>Also repaint a Stormtrooper as a Force Unleashed Stormtrooper Commander
>Repack Rebel Fleet Troopers

Yes, you repeated what i just said, except using the wrong terms because you dont understand that revenue is sexier than profit margin, especially when effectively funneled all main line sales toward 1:12.
Basically, if you want a properly articulated toy, you have to buy the $20 one, instead of splitting that market between 1:12 and 1:18 like they had been doing before.

It's as cost effective and profitable as WalMart being the biggest bookseller in the world even though they only carry the top 10 books.

I got this yesterday. Ended up taking out the hardhat system in it and put some airsoft helmet pads in it instead. Made it instantly better to wear since I have a giant head.

You know very well that Star Wars cucks will buy the 20$ figure as multiples even if it's rereleased as a army builder later on. It's definitely a calculated business move especially with maxxing profits from the retool.

They'll release the shadow trooper with that new stormtrooper sculpt at some point since it's easy cash.

Yeah, I was surprised how ridiculously tiny he is. I'm also glad they had the foresight to include a little accessory case because if that little ball rolls off your desk you're never going to find it again.

Nearly dropped mine into our thick carpet. I think hasbro made him midi scale because they wouldn’t be sure of the future of 3.75. He seems too small for 6 inch but a bit too big for 3.75, but close enough for both.

I hate to admit it, but I have really soured on this figure. For 10 dollars, you aren't really getting much. If the Child came with the crib, I wouldn't complain.. a few little accessories doesn't make up for that

I agree, especially with how undersized he is. I wouldn't put it past Hasbro to double dip and do a second release with the crib, or just pull a Yoda and make a better version altogether but include it exclusively in a set.

I actually bought the chewbacca because I liked it, but the action features and non removable clothing made the female dolls garbage.

At what point has the main line ever had mostly female characters?

As star wars fags, aren't we supposed to have move on? Why do we remain to beat the dead horse? Kathleen and Mickey killed the franchise, it's obvious. It's as plain as the moon in the night sky. What else needs to be said? With the sheer amount of things to have gone wrong in recent times, just let people grab onto what little they have in this world to retain some semblance of happiness. At this point you could buy a case of rogue one figures and they'd have been so deeply discounted that nobody from bad robot or lucasfilm will have seen a cent from your purchase. Your vitrol will get you nowhere.

I don't think this list is what Yakface was referring to in that report about new exclusives, since none of these are new reveals (as in we've known about these for a while, even if most haven't been officially unveiled) and just being in the Gamestop system doesn't mean they're Gamestop exclusives.
