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

Not sure if this works internationally, but I use Booko (website/app). It rounds up and lists book availability and new prices from cheapest to most expensive as well as second hand. It also works out postage.

Thanks mate. It works internationally., you can change the flag in the top right corner. I could still get it cheapest from a local German book chain which may not be in the mainstream english speaking internet sites. But it is a good tool to at least check.

Seems it only came out in December. But even just these couple of pics are amazing. Seems Mando may have almost got the fur armourer look. And Grogo's pram was almost in backpack form.

Early concept art showed rex with ahsoka. We'll probably still get him in the Ahsoka show.

.....and thats just where he belongs. Over there. With her.

Occam's Razor rarely leads you astray. Which is a fact i wish many fans truly understood. We would therefore cut down on crap like people windmilling about, screaming that Thrawn is coming to "Mandalorian" when any ninnyhammer with working logic circuits could deduce that Ahsokas namedrop was intended as foreshadowing for her own show.

Kids these days.

I have the book and it's pretty amazing. Best Art Of since Rogue One.

+1 for the word "ninnyhammer".

Yeah, the Art of Rogue One is really special. I'm also a big fan of the Solo one, especially the part showing Dryden Vos' collection. Some really cool easter eggs in there and references to obscure Legends stuff like Xim the Despot and the Mandalorian Rally Master.

Speaking of the Art of books, I've been looking into buying the Fallen Order one. The only thing is there are two versions, standard (which looks good enough to me) and the limited edition at twice the price. Is the limited edition worth the extra money? The white cover is beautiful, but not sure it's worth twice the price.

Um.... the white one has Jedi Fallen Order on the front......OK maybe I'm not being so helpful

Just looking at one of the reviews for this book, makes me want to play through the game again. Will definitely try to do that before the next one releases.

Speaking of that, this article says possibly Autumn 2022.

Fallen Order 2 and a Knights of the Old Republic remake and we?re good to go. Why not capitalise on the two best Star Wars games of all time?

In reality they?ll give us Battlefront 3 (snooze) and some High Republic bollocks instead of a KOTOR remake.

I've been meaning to get the Solo one but for some reason it just keeping falling to the wayside. I also really enjoyed the Rebels one. Worst is Rise of Skywalker missing art from most of the movie. Say what you will about the movie, the concept art was amazing. Pity most of it is missing from the book.

The potentially only bad side of these books is you see awesome stuff which they don't use in the movie. Sometimes quite frustrating. But I guess the guys doing this concept art produce a lot of excellent stuff, so the decision to pick just one look or character must be really difficult sometimes.

There's always the chance someone else comes along and claims it for another SW movie or show. I think Favreau's done that several times already in Mando. One man's junk is another man's treasure and all that.

Like Momaw said above some of the TROS designs were way better than what ended up in the movie, and by the sounds of it many of them didn't even end up in the book. I'm no fan of that film, but the one thing that really impressed me was the design of Exegol, it was one of the scariest locations I've ever seen in Star Wars. I believe JJ borrowed that design from Trevorrow's scrapped version of Episode IX.

It also makes me a little sad when I see unused concept art from The Force Awakens, and how much better it looks than what they went with. It seems JJ has an acquired taste.

That was the most frustrating thing with the TRoS Art Of. A single Exogol temple external piece of art and zero Final Order (both the acolytes and the fleet designs), zero temple interior, and zero Palpatine art. Easily the most interesting art of the movie would have been all those designs.

It reminds me of that alternate storyboarded opening for TFA with the star destroyer. It was soo cool, i wish they had gone that way with the opening(Although i do love TFA as is, there are only a couple of nitpicks i have and they are minor).

Reports surfacing that K2SO will not be in season 1 of Andor after all. Does not bode well for those wanting a re-release. Might turn up in later seasons.

I found that response from Alan Tudyk vague and unconvincing.

OK. That's interesting. I did notice when Disney had their investor day presentation that KK only mentioned DeAgo Luna, Mon Mothma and others on a brief lineup. But no Alan Tudyk.

I expect they need Cassian to be nimble and a one man show as a spy to begin with, plus if there are a couple of episodes of him as a kid etc, then yeah perhaps K2SO will be the S2 draw.

Exegol, it was one of the scariest locations I've ever seen in Star Wars.

What pictures are you referring to? Can you post them?
