Okay, so maybe it is just a dumb toy thing (we need that new trailer so I can stop overanalyzing toys).
I don't think we should count out there being some on-screen equivalent to the look of the Hasbro version. Yeah it's clearly done that way to facilitate easily removing the blade (all the other 6" BS figures have removable blades, too), but maybe Kylo's saber does arc the laser beams in similar ways under certain conditions, like when the blades are under stress or if the power fluctuates. We know his saber is unconventional in how it is built so it might be unstable in that way.
 
This will be mine.
Being as the X-Wing (and the TIE) were really the only toys/collectables I was thinking about getting this year, hearing that the X-Wings basically fall apart in some form, guaranteed, makes me a little unhappy.

But then again, I've been spending more money than I thought I'd be on games these past few weeks anyway, so at least I'm not going deeper in the hole in my neverending pursuit of eternal adolescence.
Seeing as you'll just be displaying and not playing with them, I think they're still worth buying.
 
My haul for today. Target was obviously restocked and had a good bit of stuff.

Yes. I got both Falcons. >_> (EDIT: I'm thinking the one in the four pack is a repackage of the old Titanium Falcon? The Episode VII version mold is different)

And if anyone wants a size comparison between the electronic and extendable lightsabers:

I admit I get caught up in the hype a little bit. I went to a few local malls yesterday but I could only find stacks of the new Stormtrooper and Chewbacca figures. I guess the other characters haven't been released here yet or are all sold out.

I did manage to pick up a Uniqlo t-shirt.

Does anyone know when the second wave Black series figures are coming out? I know October but do we have a date? I REALLY want to snag Phasma fast and that red guy.
 
Whooooa. Now I'll heard Bobby's voice in his posts.

Unrelated and didn't feel this needed a thread: hints in Star Wars: Aftermath that
Boba Fett
might come back.

Kind of a big character spoiler. A returning character we haven't seen in previews, minor plot spoiler.
He's in the opening. He's got pieces of his body replaced with metal and he's pretty old. He sees the light saber and knows instantly who it belongs to. He's on Jakku. He's played by a pretty big actor but I can't remember his name.

Page back, they were on Amazon late last week. I just got FO Stormtrooper, Deadpool looking guy and 2x Phasmas delivered today.

Dang that was fast! Mine come on Tuesday! Super excited to get them. But a little bummed I missed out on the KMart exclusive Kylo Ren (pictures earlier in this thread) -- pre-orders went up sometime early Sunday and sold out super fast.

Welp my bb-8 antenna broke off. I wonder if they'll sell replacement heads at some point.

Oh well, at least it's not a functionality thing.

I seriously love my Sphereo BB8

Better late than never (maybe. Maybe it's better never.) but here's the video from my appearance on CNN last Friday.



See if you can spot the moment where I could have (but brainfarted it) referred to myself as a "Lore Expert."

You've propelled yourself to my favorite person on GAF ever good sir.

Yeah, this here is what I caved on today. Loot crate I passed on. Marvel Collector's Corps I passed on.... But Star Wars.... man... I need dat.

I also subbed. If you look at what they have done with marvel collector's corps it's easy to imagine the cool stuff we'll be getting in these star wars boxes. really looking forward to it.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

? I don't see anything in the past few pages. You're talking about the black series Phasma? I can't find her on Amazon. Can you send me the link so I can at least have it for when she hopefully comes back in stock? Shit I can't believe I missed it.

Edit - oh wait is it the page that has her at over $100 right now? Ugh I can't believe I missed that when she was up for real. So sad. :(
