Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mando" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi" + "The Book of Boba Fett"

Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"

As we are speculating on future live action Star Wars releases, Diego Luna seemingly confirmed Cassian show shooting started today in london. Another long overdue character could finally get a well deserved 1/6 treatment in the not too distant future.

Anytime Fett's armor is in an episode, it's always in his traditional look. This was from the first episode this season.

Fair enough. Doesn't change my hope for a traditional undergarment look with the severly weathered armor. Although I wouldn't say no to a deluxe set!

Not sure if it's already been said, I'm willing to bet Robert Rodriguez is directing the entirety of the Boba Fett mini-series.

Unfortunately you're probably pretty right here. If they release that mortar trooper, there's no way I'm getting it. That'll be my vote to Hot Toys to not continuously do repaints.[...]

I love stormtroopers, but my (apparently unpopular) opinion is that those candy-striped 'variants' look stupid. It was bad enough with the Skittles -- I mean Clones -- but I didn't have much of an opinion on it since I'm not a PT guy anyway, but taking a classic design and slapping racing stripes on it runs counter to the Empire's uniform, brutalist, unadorned aesthetic as established in the OT. Retconning for continuity with questionable PT design choices leaves me cold.

This is the new empire.

I do like the red on the incinerator trooper but the yellow one?? Nope
I?d also love it if HT gave us a DT.

You don't have to take my word for it but he's definitely going to go back to his ROTJ look in the future.

Really enjoyed the episode, but for a show that is usually so on point when it comes to it's star wars aesthetic and design choices...

Spoiler

I thought those Dark Troopers looked pretty cheap and unconvincing, personally.

I think he will get an upgrade look based on the ROTJ look, not the same, but similar and more like the recent mandalorians suit

Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"

At least the fat suit will be screen accurate this time.

Surprised no one has

RIP Razorcrest

This episode brought quite a few options to the table for future Hot Toys releases...

Spoiler

and a punch in the guts for all Haslab backers

Spoiler

I think we have until Dec 7th to cancel and I'm really thinking about it lol. I'll probably hold and sell if I decide I don't want it at release, but that's a punch in the gut.

I have to assume Cobb Vanth is more likely now too. 75% of the figure will already be done. Interesting that Boba's rocket reverted back? Seems odd.

I actually think HT is tossing their Cobb sculpt in the trash right now lol.

Spoiler

Finally some screentime badassery from Boba lol. also this finally confirms Jango a true mandalorian i guess. I've always believed the rumors going around the net that he was not a true mandalorian.

Spoiler

I kinda think they went a bit out of their way to show a badass Boba after all the 'he didn't do anything and died like a moron' comments over the years

Spoiler

Yeah they didn't really do anything, and just looked like thick robots. I'm sure we'll see more though.

Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"

Enjoyed the episode...those Troopers looked gash though...as did a certain someone when semi-suited up. He was cool once upon a time...not now though (Mando is way cooler imo). And what has he (the actor) done to his teeth? It was most distracting.

RIP Razorcrest

Because

Spoiler

Am in mourning. I friggin' luved that ship. I hope Din D'jarin finds the Razor Crest II when he goes back to Tatooine to collect Timothy Olyphant and the Mechanic helps him salvage the Crest II from that ST junkyard.

At least Din D'jarin took it like a man. *&^% even Boba looked like he was feelin' for Mando

But I'll always have the HASBRO version. Eventually. The Razor Crest lives on.

 

[Sassafras]

Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"

Yeah totally. I thought exactly the same thing......

Nah. A thing isn't beautiful because it lasts. Got no doubt some will bail out but IMO iconic. It'd be like getting rid of a Solo figure 'coz of the obvious.

Spoiler

It would be hilarious tho if folks bailed on their PO and then the show digs out another pre-Empire Razor Crest. If not, hope Din D'jarin steals something interesting.

Nah he looks even cooler suited up here than he did in ESB or ROTJ imo.

Yeah, it's like Rex in Rebels. That suit against the black. If this is gonna be my first, hope HT doesn't cheap out and includes everything.

I'll need his companion too. Gave me the warm fuzzies seeing the fights and unexpected allies.

This series is overflowing with @ss-kicking.

My favorite look so I will happily take your word [emoji16]

Speaking in general, one of the things that is so delicious is seeing holes poked in "Clone Wars" for once. Its adherents view it as the Star Wars version of the King James Bible.

"NO WAY can x be true because Jim Bob says in "Clone Wars" episode 3, season 4 that he is/is not! CHALLENGE NOT MY HOLY WRIT!!!!!"

HAHA jokes on you, looks like Filoni/Favreau are shredding your expectations.

I need her too. I was really surprised to see her show up with someone notorious for having given up on working with others, he's been very specific about it in the past but looky here! Its a brand new day.

This series is overflowing with @ss-kicking.

You are not wrong here. I am not sure how much more my cardiopulmonary system can take, tbh.

I'm really worried about Grogu. Not only his physical well-being, but what he's being indirectly taught is acceptable or necessary.

It's true, from a certain point of view.

I don't think we need him to look like he did 40 years ago, we've already seen that and there's already a couple of HT figures with that look.
