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

[Hoody999]

True. Writing intelligent, creative, witty characters and scenes requires the writer to also possess those qualities which certainly was not the case with this show.
Bail Organa openly broadcasting Luke’s whereabouts and the family he’s staying with to Obi Wan while he’s got the entire Empire hot on his tail is possibly the most severe instance of a character behaving with such uncharacteristic idiocy as to be truly offensive.
But I won’t **** on the show anymore.
If BOBF has taught us anything, it’s that our expectations should be set very low for the future of Star Wars.

This sums it all up.

idiocy as to be truly offensive.

Best overall description of Disney Star Wars I have seen so far.

I survived the prequels. You guys can survive this.

I have to say I like the lighter color blue on these Clones better than the darker blue we got on the 501st HT figure. I wonder if we'll see a version like this.

Live-action Omega confirmed, lol.

Please don't put that out into the universe.

I love the 501st but other named characters and legions/battalions need representation.

Not that I think they would. They just have such limited screen time and Hot Toys would probably just consider it "the same thing" internally. There's always been some inconsistency in the blue used so I think it'll just be ignored.

I like the blue Hot Toys used which I agree is maybe just a little too dark, but works fine for me for ROTS and realistic TCW. I don't know what I'd do with a Kenobi specific 501st figure since it wouldn't match Rex or the other 501st Clones coming.

If anyone knows someone at Disney, please send them this. 5,7k votes is not insignificant.

All hopes on Andor now. Surely Tony Gilroy won't pull any punches.

I read somewhere where they said expect somethings to change. Not sure if it means anything canon, but I'm not expecting anything for Andor. I was just waiting for a K2 re-issue but he's not happening with season 1 and I'm ok with the announcement of the KX droid.

I have a feeling the script for Book of Boba was rushed and a half baked idea decided quickly after that single Mando episode, hence what we got was very average.

Tony Gilroy and Andor on the other hand has had time, and presumably less meddling from any execs due to his good history with what he did with Rogue One.

So I am quietly confident for Andor. However if I'm honest with myself I was confident that even Disney couldn't F-up Boba Fett, yet here we are.....

 

[Hoody999]

Interesting video here about Andor and Book of Boba. I'd be fine to somehow try and redeem Boba and bring him back to what us fans want, a bad ass.

Personally I've already wiped The Book of Boba show from my personal head-canon. So bring on a couple of episodes with kick ass Boba moments, and I'll be happy.

 

[CrankbaitJon]

One thing for sure was that I had high expectation for figures from BoBF. I don't have much expectation in terms of figures for Andor.

I'm sorry but 5700 votes is very small, compared to the millions of households that have Disney+ worldwide.

Mando has been my favorite (besides TCW S7 but we won't count that) but that is a very small sample size right there.

Ever heard of statistics, and significant sample size ?

To represent 5 million people, you only need a poll group size of 663 to achieve 99% confidence level with 5% error.

Anyway, it was only an observation how poorly Book of Boba scored. I'd be open to them bringing him back to kick ass Mando Boba in the next Mando season.

HT SummerShow case is coming up. I think there were 2 "Waves" last year, the main one in July and a 2nd smaller one in August. I recall we had 3 SW figures for the events. Armorer (Exclusive), Boba Throne (Exclusive accessories) and Mando Luke (Exclusive accessories).

I hope we see something this week.

I'm pumped I'm going to SDCC so will be able to see whatever they've got in person, even if it'll be 2 years until I get one in hand haha.

They should be announcing the exclusives this week.

Seems your prayers have been answered.
