Well, to inject some mild positivity, I was half-hoping but not actually expecting them to make more of the inquisitors. If they do make 5th Brother and/or 4th Sister, I may have to jump on all of them. I wasn't the hugest fan of the Obi-Wan show but like all their designs in both Rebels and live action, so this is cool to see. Heck, I'm not even big on troopers, but if they do all these, I might even have to get a Purge trooper to stand with them.
 
Might not be able to say no to 5th Brother, him and GI would be all I need. Unfortunate he completely disappeared from the show after the 4th episode.
 
I can't even remember, who killed him in Rebels? Kanan? Ahsoka? Maul?
Like Chris said, Maul killed both 5th Brother and 7th Sister in the S2 finale.

Kenobi was a hit for Lucasfilm, its no surprise they'd want to push it a bit with merchandise.

At this point though, I'm just hoping they follow through with the AoTC Phase 2 wave.
 
These are nice, but nice enough to justify $300+ apiece? Sadly, no.

I would not hold my breath waiting for the preorder to drop, but I'm a pessimist like that. We just now got Vanth. These will go up two years from now.

Also, reaction on FB seems very Meh overall. People are neither rejoicing or hating, its just Meh.
 
I'm sorry but not enough people are going to buy Lobot or Veers, they will sit on shelves and go on deep discount. If characters like Lando don't even sell well then those have no chance; majority of Star Wars fans probably couldn't even tell you those characters names from a photo.
If you don't know Veers or Lobot....you aren't a Star Wars fan.

I know Kenobi wasn't as well received amongst the older fans (personally speaking, I did like the show minus any scene with Reva in it), but ultimately it was a hit and brought in big numbers for Disney, so I'm not surprised they're pushing it like this. Just frustrating to see other stuff constantly get pushed back or phased out in favor of unnecessary characters.

That AOTC wave 2 feels like an afterthought. If there's no new prototype like Windu or Padme or Kit Fisto at NYCC I think hope is gone. Especially knowing the ROTS 20th will be some 212th troopers and some battle droid that doesn't need a sculpt.

Whatever, Hot Toys is making it easier to save for a trip to Aruba.
