and chinese takeout noodles, pistachios etcThe thing I don't like in Andor is many things are earthified. Presence of phone booths; head caps, rifles, etc that very much resemble what we wear today, a marching band with similar composition to modern ones (drum, thrompets, pan flutes, etc), and things like that.
Yep totally the same for me. Hot Toys are dragging the chain here as usual. I guess there were no easy figures which could be taken. No re-painted trooper with green stripes or whatever. But I'll wait and see what comes. Exchange rates need time to fall back so time is on my side.Tubes and Mon Mothma for me. For the rest, I'm good to wait for their S2 looks.
I want a figure of most of the characters on Andor.
Hope the eventual Cassian figure is based on his look from the finale.

With a rotating barrel?
Or Nemik's manifesto (faux screen), would also make a great prop (for me).
That has shot up there with the Death Star plans Datacard.
Or further Dr. Henry Jones' Grail Diary as iconic narrative props.
Those things really bothered me more they should have.The thing I don't like in Andor is many things are earthified.

If you wanted more of the same, rewatch the older films.
How can a franchise evolve if it's the same formula for decades? People are sick of the MCU now, Bond only pops up every few years and can recast its main character easily.
Andor took some risks and they paid off.
Luthen's whole shtik is fantastic, he's the original Sir Percy Blakeney/Zorro/Batman with the disinterested aristocrat secret ID, and slick ride and gadgets, brilliantly repurposed into the SW Universe.I want a two pack with Luther and his slick speeder.
...my love for dark gritty dirty sci fi.
I hope they announce Cassian tonight, otherwise I think the ship will have sailed on him at least until after they've revealed their Avatar figures. We're probably gonna wind up seeing a Jake Sully reissue tonight though.
