    First Picture I've seen of Rogue One Toys. This is supposed to be available at SDCC 2016 as a 6" Black Series. Not my photo. Jyn Erso.jpg

    She looks nice. You know, I really hope that the toymakers behind RO delivers some decent characters and expands the SW universe in a better way than TFA did. It was a real bummer to see many characters from the movie never make it into figure form. In both the OT and the PT, having time between the flick gave us toy collectors plenty of time to have some obscure favorites made. We got so many cool characters like Hammerhead, Squid Head, Sebulba, Amanaman and Ayy Vida but seeing as how we are now going to have a new movie each year is really going to hurt us fans of the more obscure characters. Now, every single Stormtrooper with extra gear, every extra Kylo Ren with scuba gear and Finn with battle armor is going to be a bummer as this figure takes the space of a figure that could have been awesome but will never make it to plastic. This sadly happened with TFA and I'm afraid it will become the norm from here on. We are only months away from RO and just look at some of the cool characters we have missed on from TFA:

    We never even got a single beast toy which is something we have been getting ever since the first vintage line from Kenner.

    I hope things start to go differently in the following movies but I have to admit that I fear that Disney's money grubbing is going to continue ruining the toy collection and this may even spread to the movies as well. If we would have had a new SW movie each year, imagine how many cool figures would not exist today. Figures like Oola, Boshek, Ephant Mon, Tanus Spijek and Pax Bonkik would have never seen the light of day and this really sucks as it has me yearning for the good old days when instead of having a hundred Stormtrooper and Clone Trooper variations, we had ourselves some funky figures like Cloud Car Pilot, Rebel Soldier, Snaggletooth and the Power Droid.

    I can understand Kenner and Hasbro from a business standpoint. Take Clone Troopers, my personal pet peeve. They already have a mold. Add some color, add a bigger gun, add a jet pack, now they have three more "new" figures. They are in business to make money. As long as toys sell, they will continue to do what they do. I don't know if they don't listen to collectors or they just don't know what collectors are saying. They gave us the Black Series and it's good, but still falling into the "Clone" dilemma. I honestly think it will take a major market competitor who can compete dollar wise as well to change Hasbro. There are plenty of good looking 6" figures on the market from other lines/genres, so it is possible.

    Gwendoline Christie presented one of these to Felicity Jones on stage during the Rogue One panel when we were at SWCE last week. Jones commented that she was quite chuffed to be " a Star Wars doll".

    I saw the pictures of her holding it up, but didn't know the story behind it.

    There weren't many figures at the store I went to, but I got a 3.75 carded Jyn and a they had Imperial Troopers and Stormtroopers. No black Rogue one figures at all, but some new Force Awakens ones.

    I was in Target and picked up a 3.75 Jyn and that new tall C3PO type droid (not sure of his code). They didn't much of a selection other then a load of Stormtroopers.

    i'm finding the new toys in abundance (except for the death troopers in the black series, perhaps). either there's been less of a mad grab or they're doing better putting out the stock? still never found a black series Hux. will have to order one after Christmas or something.

    one thing that i haven't found in the stores is this: i don't know what it is, but i want it ~ hahaha:

    I'm waiting to see the motorized AT-ACT. My son will love it! I have to get him an old 'Power of the force' edition At-At on ebay for his birthday. It cost a pretty penny but it was worth it.

    Really hoping they make a tank from the trailer for the hovertank figures, and NOT one with a dumb nerve canon!

    I just saw the Galen Erso figure online today. I'd like to see a family pack with a young Jyn.

    K2 is by far my favorite. I'd put this on a desk at work.

    i want those Hot Toys shoretroopers!

    the die-cast elite series is on sale at the Disney store for $14.99 (that's 40% off). i was so tempted to buy out the store last time i was there.
