If Ben and Leia are so horribly overproduced then why have I never seen one?
The store I quoted are UK based. We seem to get a bit shafted here in regards to some figures. See Revan, R2, Sabine etc.

Ah, I wasn't aware of those problems because... I don't actually own one lol.And that ill-advised torso articulation that makes him look like he's wearing a sports bra. They avoided this mistake with farmboy Luke and thank god for that.
And no open flap option.
And no poncho, robe, helmet or camo. To be fair Hasbro didn't do those last four.
There was a fantastic third-party poncho, but that person only made a few and stopped. You can still get robes but there's no point without the poncho. Luke never wore just the robe.
Look at this shit. So good. They used the wrong robe color, though. It's supposed to be dark brown.
Oh damn, that looks very nice. I think I may have to pick it up when it releases.The new Mafex Rogue One Vader fixes the main problems with their previous Vader, like the comically oversized shoulder armor. It's certainly far better than the existing Figuarts.

Gonna be my first Vader figure since the 3.75 inch 30th anniversary one, which was surprisingly good.
Removable helmet and all.

ANH Luke!What do you own though.
ANH Luke!
ANH Luke!
Edit: Oh, no! Han's been frozen again!
https://hlj.com/product/MEDMAFEX-45Medicom's new Darth Vader MAFEX figure, based on his appearance in "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story," is about 16cm tall, and features a newly sculpted helmet, newly designed joints for improved posability, a lightsaber hilt, and interchangeable hands. A figure stand is included too. Add a bit of the Dark Side to your collection today!
Yeah, they're definitely worth it.Never owned a Figuarts but own a few Revoltechs and a Figma. Are they worth it? Looking at some troopers.
Yeah, they're definitely worth it.
It seems Mafex Rogue One Vader only comes with the lightdaber hilt and no blade. That's odd.
HasbroToyShop was selling them early right after their reveal. No other retailer has them yet.So I just saw the stuff with the 40th anniversary Black Series figures but I'm a bit lost and really don't keep up with news on merch.
Are the figures with the anniversary packaging out or are they about to come out? And does that also include the legacy pack(that's what I really want)?

Yeah, you could be right. Actually, I think you're probably spot on.Did that announcement come out before the movie? It may just be some bullshit about not spoiling the movie.
There was no mention of a blade, only a hilt, for the Hot Toys version in their announcement and promo shots. Then it shipped with a lightsaber blade.
Still, I wouldn't preorder. Mafex stuff is easy to find.
Crosley Radio has announced that this 40th anniversary Star Wars turntable will be available in participating independent record stores for the 10th annual Record Store Day on Saturday, April 22.
Features include pitch control, Bluetooth, dynamic full-range stereo speakers, a headphone jack and RCA outputs.
The Star Wars turntable will be fairly affordable at $109.95, so I expect that it wont be easy to get your hands on.
I just got the Medicom Mafex Boba Fett based on all the positive reviews and my enjoyment of the previously released Mafex Vader.
The details on the figure are great and the sculpt and colors are good, but there's almost TOO much going on with the figure. As soon as I was moving his right arm to get the rifle on, the arm popped off, and immediately was a bitch to get into the socket again securely, partly because the Wookie scalps keep sliding down into the socket area.
Also the arm mobility isn't quite as articulated as I'd like, I was hoping I could swivel the arms at the elbow so I could get Fett in his classic rifle holding pose, but the arms don't seem to swivel in.
Also the plastic covering his helmet out of the packaging is irritating. I had to use a knife to get it off and risk scraping the paint or plastic to do it.
So a great looking figure in every way, but not as pleasing as the Mafex Vader. Articulation should be way better than it actually is.
Rey and her speeder
Grand Admiral Thrawn
Commander Gree
You know what I buy at Star Wars Celebration? A ThreeA Optimus Prime. I'm an enigma.
I expected a Thrawn figure this year what with his return in Rebels and his novel. Gree's a bit of an odd choice.
Nah. You're bridging franchises here! Now whenever you look at that Optimus Prime, you'll remember that time you went to Star Wars Celebration.
I've seen quite a few positive impressions.I had my eye on the novel. Any word as to whether it's good or not?
I sort of really want this:

New rumor seems to be the Battlefront 2 female Tie pilot as a Black Series exclusive to Gamestop.
I don't think she's a TIE pilot. She's Imperial Special Forces.
Just a repaint, disappointed.
Gonna need like three Jaina figures.
