Reposted from last thread, because I found it interesting.
A former Mattel employee who ran the MOTU Classics toy line made a series of videos explaining why the Disney movies were bad from a toy company perspective and why kids and adults wouldn't collect it, which also explains why the movies were bad.
He first did a video on the topic of forced diversity, saying that non-white characters are not as in demand and never will be, because over 63% of the US is white.
This one's touchy because it deals with race and toy sales-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stQGn4LJA0c >little boys don't play with female action figures really, and the core audience would be little white boys >none of the main heroes in Rogue One are white aside from Jyn Erso-- a woman >none of the main heroes in ST are white except for women and maybe Luke, who's barely in it He did another about focusing on the trend of female main characters in movies:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-iK2xxMpwU0 >Hunger Games had a "strong" woman lead, so Hollywood; particularly Disney copied the formula several times over with Rey, Jyn, Rose, Jannah, etc. >Captain Marvel, Wonder Woman, Ghostbusters remake, Harley Quinn, Rey, Rose, and Jannah in ST, all examples >they did it, because marketing told them that strong women were popular >female characters such as Cara Dune and Ahsoka are better, because they weren't created by marketing people and therefore have value as toys >an executive told ToyGuru that Captain Marvel was purely designed in marketing using spreadsheets which is why her toys bombed He also just did one on the Razor Crest being destroyed and says that shit like that can kill a toy's sales.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlPCQ6sjmk0 >killing off characters-- in this instance the Razor Crest is like a character, and by killing off a character it hurts their sales, which is another reason why Rogue One figures outside of troopers and badguys shelf warmed. Anonymous

Im fine with any rebels shit they cram in now. They did boba right except for the fatt but it’s whatever. They unfucked him, they unfucked george shitting on the fetts being pretenders, he got to kick some ass, they possibly just canonized open seasons by confirming jango was a foundling and fought in the civil war.

The toys don't sell well because the movies are trash.
None of those guys have light sabers or unique outfits (except the asian in red)

None of these characters did anything impressive

>>8608196 Rogue One committed many action figure sins on the children's toy market according to him--
>female main character-- little boys don't really play with female action figures and never have, which is why in older toy lines there were rarely female characters. >no white male main character-- most of your target audience(little white boys) use their figures as self inserts(avatars for themselves as ToyGuru states) according to toy marketing research-- no white male hero, then little to no interest then to white kids who make up 63% of your sales. There was no Luke Skywalker. >all your heroes die and are gone in the current continuity of the story-- kids and even adults don't like collecting dead characters. This last bit I always felt like was the case, because I lost interest in the entire cast if they died on their first and only adventure. The main saving grace for Rogue One is the villains, it squeaks by with Darth Vader's few minutes of screen time and all the trooper figures. I know myself personally I really only bought troopers and saw a considerable amount of peg warming hero figures. I feel like Solo was more conducive to toy sales but was sabotaged by the fact that it came out after TLJ and would have been more well received had it come out in the place of Rogue One.

>>8608230 I hated it upon first viewing but on a second watch when it was on netflix it was fine. May be just its not as bad as TLJ and ROS.

Im also someone who loves Rogue One and its unironicly my 3rd favorite movie in the series and for me has the best space battles of the series. After seeing the ending battle gave me huge hope for the future seeing more dogfighting like that on the big screen.

If it ends up he doesnt fly another crest Ill just flip it when surely people who regret canceling or missing out drive the prices up. This does open up a dilemma about hasbro not getting advanced notice on these things. I bet they’re also thinking they dodged a bullet not taking this thing to retail. Retail it would be a sure flop if it was a maybe before. They are behind the curve though because Disney is over protective now of leaks. As another anon said almost every figure is outdated by the time it hits pegs and they are more than a year behind on them as it is.

>>8608232 I only bought the 5POAs, and a number of the figures I only bought because the movie hadn't come out yet. When I was collecting Black Series there was a glut of Jyn figures. She peg warmed harder than Constable Zuvio. That was honestly a really bad time for Black Series where it seemed like you could only get new figures online, since retail was packed with Jyns, Finns, Reys, and Zuvios. With 5POA I picked up a ton of the Stormtroopers and Deathtroopers.
>>8608230 I like Solo better, the characters are better and the story seemed more satisfying. It's one of the few projects George Lucas had any involvement in directly, since Lucas commissioned the script for Solo prior to selling to Disney. Aspects of the story come directly from Lucas and Larry Kasdan. Kasdan also wrote the script to the movie with his son.The project later had re-shoots with Ron Howard; a friend of Lucas' with George on set for the re-shoots to make it feel more like Star Wars.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9db8CDV3n70 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAgc9vg6pXE It should have been more successful and there was a lot of Star Wars fans that wanted it to fail just to gloat over how bad Disney was. A number of the aliens from Solo have appeared in The Mandalorian. It's failure probably led to The Mandalorian however since there was supposed to be a Boba Fett movie in which there was a new character who was wearing Boba Fett's armor, but wasn't Boba Fett. Josh Trank was supposed to direct it.

It's not as big of a problem regardless, Mando flew that ship for most of 2 seasons. I think the issue if there is one, is if Mando gets yet another ship, because everyone's gonna want that ship now, like when chapter 3 of the Mandalorian aired and Mando suddenly had Beskar armor, but all the toys at that time were based on his look from chapter 1.

What's the point of even having Star Wars if you're not going to play with the sandbox of characters at your disposal? It's like having the license to DC and Marvel and refusing to make new stories with Superman or Batman, or Spider-Man because someone says you're not allowed to, because they'll hold their breath and scream. Instead we're doing nonsense like setting the stories decades later in wild cash grabs so we can use actors who are well past their prime and in the case of Carrie Fisher dead.
It's smart to recast, the sequels are generally panned, and nobody likes what happened to the OT cast. With re-casting you can either disregard the sequels or fix them by writing around them and expanding upon them.

>They mistook people's love of Harrison Ford as Han as love for Han. No, it was because George Lucas liked Han, because he created Han and wanted a movie about Han. It's like complaining over Dave Filoni liking his character Ahsoka and sticking her in things-- it's his character. Han was one of George's and George wanted to do things with the characters he created, just like he did things with them in the prequels.
Nah, honestly I don't believe you that nobody wanted to see Han, which was why there was the massive draw to Harrison Ford being in Force Awakens. The backlash was from autistic Retroblasting types who needlessly get upset over the littlest things, like Chris-Chan harping on Sonic having blue arms, who in the end were a vocal minority. The truth is the movie bombed not because of the recasting, but because of the timing of it's release being after TLJ. Star Wars was cooling down by the time Rogue One came out, even though it was technically a success, same goes with Force Awakens, it was technically a success, but they weren't exactly good. Rogue One went thru extensive re-shoots and they heavily toned down Jyn's character, because everyone said she seemed like unlikable cunt. Her line, "This Is a Rebellion, Isn't It? I Rebel," was noticeably expunged despite being in the trailer.

So Boba said he's wearing Jango's armor? how'd that happen? With all the commotion going on, I would've assumed he'd just leave his dad's body to rot in the Geonosis arena along with the armor and only kept the helmet...which he blew up trying to kill Mace Winud.

>>8608846 Honestly I always figured that one was a fake, just to remind Mace that this is revenge for Jango. It never made sense to me for Boba to just blow up his dad's helmet.

>>8608792 > He said he hates modern TVC because they're like puzzles to pose Personally, I hate the way they're doing the hip joints now. Of all the new vintage figures with that setup, I can only pose Yakface without any trouble.
>>8608809 I thought that was just an EU writer that picked a random extra to base a new character off of, and not fan hype like Boba Fett or Ice Cream Maker Guy.
>>8608822 I miss the old EU with all the goofy alien back stories, like how the devil kept illegal music hidden behind his shower, and had the Modal Nodes have a layover on Tatooine so he could hear them play every night.
>>8608846 I guess he was able to recover Jango's body after the jedi left on the gunships. It's pretty funny how Jango dented the helmet to explain why Boba's was dented, only to have it blown up; then later Boba gets a new one that was dented in the exact same spot.

In one of them Cad Bane shoots him in the head during a duel, but Dave Filoni said the unfinished animation for that story isn't canon, though it would have been had the episode been finished. He also got his helmet dented by Darth Vader in the Enemy of the Empire comic.

>>8609516 Hasbro decided it's more profitable to just do 6 inchers for $20+ a pop, and made that the focus instead of 3.75.
They decided The Black Series would be the "collector" line, while 3.75 would be the "kids toys" line, and regressed it back to 5POA. After the initial sell through of Force Awakens, 3.75 didn't really sell well at all, so they cancelled it outright.
They also bungled The Vintage Collection's relaunch; The first wave was mostly repacks of figures many of us could get for $5 at walmart, with the only new figure being Snoke, and the only OT figure being a repack of a Hoth Rebel.
Of all their lines, TVC is the one that has the worst distribution, so army builders get scalped hard.
Older figures from the golden age of Star Wars are; A: The most up to date, and B: Were produced in much lower numbers so they're very sought after and have a high after market value. Plus being army builders you need at least 2 clones to flank your jedi general.

Wonder how complicated that Civil War was when Jango should be an enemy of Death Watch and was seen as illegitimate by the Pacifists. Are Journeyman Protectors Pacifist aligned? Rebels was a bit unclear on this. Would be funny to reintroduce True Mandalorians after all of these denominations which seem to have more valid claims of authenticity than the "True" Mandos at this point.
Maybe Filoni is pulling the ultimate prank by canonizing the shitty TCW comic Defenders of the Lost Temple which had a clone paint Death Watch insignia on his armor because Jango was a Mando which violated the very show it was supposed to advertise.
Always makes for the best stories when the writers are even more confused than the people actually reading this stuff.
I am also still wondering if The Watch is actually separate from Death Watch like Wookiepedia claims, despite using Death Watch emblems, or if Disney demanded to remove "Death" from the name because this is arguably a kids show.

Always hated Jedi faggotry and loved the military side of things that had been exclusive to comics and games before. They should have done some generic rebel troopers with extra heads/helmets instead of a Cassian variant and bulky chinaman. Would have bought as many as Stormtroopers but the only thing in that vein was deluxe base stand Jyn Erso with poncho.
I hope that the Cassian Andor show might still manage to increase rebel ground military focus but it's more of a hopeless dream at this point. I guess I will have to buy a case of 8 Endor Commandos with vests when they do such a figure around 2023 and paint them in all of the EA Battlefront colors.

>>8608279 Comic Vos clearly survived Order 66, even discounting Tales but all of that is noncanon.
Cartoon Vos is basically a different character and had zero appearances aside of the Ziro episode and the Dark Disciple novel that made him Ventress' husbando.
I would rather have an OC based on more Samurai/japanese influences to fit the shows style. Someone like Dass Jennir in Red Harvest mode but they don't have to cast a CGI-deaged George Lucas.
Luke would be great too and work well. Weren't there even rumors that Hamil will appear in something cartoon based around the time Resistance was announced to be ending? Maybe he did VA work for Mando and his S2 appearance is just a model/Stunt guy with CGI enhanced face and actual casting will only be in S3, or the reveal will first be in S3 at all. Both would be easy to keep under wraps.
Cal Kestis can also be discounted completely since he will have a game series to himself and the RC Delta Squad didn't get any more appearances aside of one cameo in TCW because Filoni claimed they didn't want to throw a wrench in there by doing an actual story with them for if they turn up in a game or book again, same reasoning should be applied to Cal.
Ezra is also still missing timeline-wise and will stay missing since Mando Ahsoka is closer to Rebels Ahsoka than Gandalf Ahsoka, the latter who still searched for Ezra.

But that's much different from an Origin Story movie where the Han you want only appears at the very end of the film if at all. Young Han is basically Luke Skywalker without force powers if he had been dropped off at an orphanage instead of the Lars. It's like saying you will get a Darth Vader solo movie but get ROTS or the entire prequel trilogy instead. It's logical story progression and serviceable but you certainly expected something different with that tagline.
> No, it was because George Lucas liked Han, because he created Han and wanted a movie about Han. It's like complaining over Dave Filoni liking his character Ahsoka and sticking her in things-- it's his character. Han was one of George's and George wanted to do things with the characters he created, just like he did things with them in the prequels. I distinctly remember the main force behind the Solo movie were polls with normies before the 2012 buyout where it turned out that Han Solo is the most popular SW character (maybe villains excluded).
>>8610187 To be able to charge more. 501st Battlepack being a 30$ set was a test run most certainly to gage if they can get more out of you.

The only well designed sets are UCS anyway. I hope they will finally get their shit together and make an AT-AT with knee joints that's in the 300$+ range and that the LAAT/I UCS is real fig scale. Those are about the only models I have zero patience for to design myself.

>>8609777 >>8609778 Honestly, you need to blend your colors better. Don't use paint straight out of the tube.
The yellow & red spots are really off putting. They stand out like a sore thumb on a neutral/cool color pallet that the main body of the Falcon has. Like it just hit a hot dog car cart and got splattered with ketchup & mustard. Either blend in those warm colors with the off-white base your mixed for the Falcon's main body color. Or better yet, have the falcon's main color be a VERY light tan for that "left out in the desert" look.
Next is the panel lining. DON'T use black. You can get away with black in a dark, cool colored ship like a TIE or Star Destroyer, but not the Falcon. Since we're going for a desert look, I'd use some light burnt umber for a more rusty, sun bleached look. DON'T hand paint those panel lines. Use several washes. Have one wash of the umber mixed the yellow and one mixed with the red to add more cohesion to those colors.
The cloth needs to be darker and look less like a plastic bag melted on it. I would invest in a yard or two of something dark brown and VERY thin, but not see through.
Hope this helps. I know I sound critical, but I've seen worse. You're on the right track to getting better.

We've long known that the barge was destroyed, long before the toy was made. Razor Crest was BTFO'ed just yesterday with no warning and with plenty of Razor Crest merch still on store shelves.
The video makes a point that the Razor Crest is a sort of character in it's own right, with it's own hardships and good traits. We're more emotionally invested with the hero ship. The barge was really just a big, mobile set backdrop for the action.

Boba seriously takes the cake with the Mando backstory though and all that back and forth of not a Mando, back a Mando.
Captain Palleon kind of counts since he was based on Yularen. He became the final leader of the empire and tried his best to reform it in a respectable, just government like a good imperial OC should and is one of the few characters to be allowed to die from old age in retirement.

Once it was un-cancelled it opened new doors for them, and I'm sure the show The Mandalorian opens doors as well, which is why Rebels characters are now showing up. I wouldn't be shocked if Cad Bane or Aurra Sing appeared(I know she supposedly fell to her death according to Solo).

>>8610327 1. He finds a baby
2. He befriends an Ugnaught
3. He delivers baby to Werner Herzog to get better armor but then saves it again. The other Mandos of Nevarro cover his ass during his escape
4. He looks for a job on Tatooine that leads to nowhere, befriends the owner of a hangar port and kills a dude that wanted to rip him off, believes his prey Fennec Shand (space asian assassin) to be dead
5. Saves a village of frog farmers, falls in love with a frog farmer but denies it, befriends former Rebel Gina Carano and kill a group of Klatooinian Raiders with an AT-ST
6. Goes on a job for an old friend of his but is betrayed by the gang and incriminated in the eyes of the New Republic. Still able to call Space Cop Dave Filoni on their asses.
7 & 8. Wants to kill the imperials on the guild planet. A Moff appears and wants the child. Ugnaught and IG-11 die. Kills all of the imps and crashes Moff Gideons TIE, believing him dead. Gina becomes the only cop on Nevarro. The Mandalorian Armorer declares The Child a Mandalorian so he has to raise it or find Jedi/Yoda type guys to do it. For some reason all of the Mandos of Nevarro except Armorer and Heavy Dude gave up their lifestyle and armor because of episode 3.
>>8610366 Deciding against killing a dude is pretty significant. Might as well say "we will incorporate what we feel like later". Saying they were canon was just an empty tease to get them finished but that turned out to become a total makeover for one arc and another arc being realized that was just a couple of drawings.

>>8608194 Theory. Now that it is Mando, Boba, Robo Lady adventure in the Slave 1, Filoni will reach into the bag of "What I feel like re-canonizing" and bring in Slave II as either Boba or Mando's new ride.

Just a friendly reminder Din is accidentally building his own Mandalorian clan and will rise to become Mandalore the Reluctant, because he never asked for any of this.

>>8610231 I don't aim for perfection and I didn't try to imitate the Force Awakens Falcon, it's rather my own interpretation. I think the red and yellow piping and battledamage looks dirty enough for the thing I was going for. The photo doesn't capture it, but the whole thing looks sandblasted in flight direction and I wanted it to look more chipped... than water eroded. And then dust on top.
I really liked the idea of the tarp, but otherwise didn't even see it after watching the Force Awakens for the first time, last year.
Not to be an asshole but I don't like how thick it is on the model you posted, I would have to look it up, but it would be like a foot thick irl, like that. Mine is made out of heat treated Cellophane wrapping foil because that's what I had and it looks like real, weathered tarp to me.
I get the point,that it's not museum spec, but I have no obligation to anyone to make it.

>>8609779 The point was that he showed up in a group of dead Jedi that Anakin was seeing. So canon Windu, Vos and Yaddle are confirmed as one with the Force.
But Disney has already shown its happy to ignore its own canon. The canon version of Leia had no Jedi training, instead choosing to focus on helping set up the New Republic. There's even some moments in the Leia focused book where she specifically wishes that she had taken some time to focus on Force Use training.
Rian Johnson deliberately ignored that (the books author also created Holdo and was listed as having worked with Johnson around some of the scripting on TLJ). JJ Abrams then decided to go double down on the retcon to have Leia pretty well complete her training.

>>8608308 So this how Disney gets rid of the now forbidden, wrongthink word: "slave".
Boba dies during the rescue mission and now Mando gets the Slave-I and renames it Razor Crest II, or whatever. It gets a new silver paint with yellow highlights, so Hasbro can sell it again.

>>8610904 That's not how it works. Referencing a work doesn't make it canon. Elements of Bounty Hunter and Open Seasons may be canonized but that alone doesn't make them whole canon.

>>8608308 I mean, if Din gets the Slave 1, then Boba should then get a ship that’s of the same model as the “Jaster’s Legacy”.
>>8610840 I sure hope to heck they don’t try to kill or Boba! Also, I have a big, long headcanon reason as to why Jango names the firespray ship “Slave 1”. Long story short, it’s because, at one point, due to the Jedi and due to the Death Watch, he ended up as a slave for a time. Then later he managed to get his armor back and kill the Vizsla that was in charge of the Death Watch at the time. So, in the end, the slave won. Since he lost his prior sentimentally-names starship, “Jaster’s Legacy”, he then decided to name his next ship, “Slave 1”, something also sentimental, but a little bit less on the nose this time.

>>8610921 >reason as to why Jango names the firespray ship “Slave 1” Libshits do not care. "Slave" is a big no-no, problematic word in the post-BLM clown world. Now it needs to be memory holed. This is why they are starting to remove the master/slave terminology from programming language.
Slave-I is problematic, SW is mandated to be woke, even based Filoni cannot stop this, so this is going to be a convenient excuse to rename the ship.
I'm pretty sure Boba is gonna die a heroic death during the rescue operation.
