Jyn throws her crystal at it just as it fires at her -- KA-BOOM! TIE drops away, twirling and twirling with black smoke until it hits the beach.
*insert shot: Pug at controls turns to camera with that look*
TIE hits the beach and EXPLODES!

That pug truly improves all things 
Maybe not Men in Black II.

Pug lover you.
With the RO space battle I do feel that it is sorely lacking in garbled ship to ship chatter like in ANH.
All RO squadron communications are just the pilots talking into their mics but they never cut to pilots hearing WW2 style garbled orders being given to them.
Oh well I guess that's what makes ANH so very special and unique.
I'm on such a Star Wars high right now. Flew down to Orlando Friday night. Attended SW Celebration on Saturday. Got my prom photo with Felicity, had a cool little chat with Denis Lawson (Wedge), saw all the sweet new figures and prototypes, flew back late Saturday night to still make the Easter Sunday morning service. Just watched The Last Jedi trailer with the kiddos. What an epic weekend!

Let's hear the verdicts on the new figures you saw: Yoda, Luke Pilot, Snow Commander, etc
Snow Commander sucked. Snowspeeder Luke was actually one of my favorite figures and if it comes out looking like the proto it will be a homerun IMO.
Stormtrooper Han was awesome too, as were both Jyn figures (Deluxe and Imperial Disguise) and pretty much all the RO figures (K-2 is huge!) I thought Yoda looked great. The half scale figures looked cheap to me and reminded my of those giant JAKKS or whatever figures you see in Target or Toys R Us.
My favorite collectible was the new Fett PF. I came back to that one three or four times. The Rey PF was pretty awesome, as was Darth Maul.
I also picked up this print, possibly my favorite fine art piece depicting the Saga as a whole. Even with the PT elements it just called to me and I had to have it:
Only bummer was not being able to meet up with any fellow Freaks due to my limited time window. Felicity's lines sucked up half the day and I also left the con a little early because I have a cousin whose wife just had a baby and they lived 30 minutes away so I skipped out to congratulate them and see the new bundle of joy.

That Ashoka almost ruins that print.
Congrats on the poster!
Glad to hear that Luke pilot looks great in person. And Yoda too.
How was Han's face? I assume pretty good or you would have mentioned it. I do want to try and get the head to replace my ANH one.
I hear you. Though I didn't even notice her at first glance. What I love most about it is that it puts my favorite character of the saga dead center but also still gives props to Luke by making him the biggest character and above everyone else. For all the other characters Jason Palmer literally chose the best rendition of each (ROTJ Emperor instead of ROTS, etc.) He even cherry picked the absolute best elements of the PT. No Kid Anakin, Kid Boba, Jar Jar, etc. My eye always goes right to the cluster of RO/ANH characters and then I scan the rest. I absolutely love it.
Thanks!
Han's face looked very good. I think if you picked up the head just to do a swap with the current smuggler figure you'd be very happy. I could post pics of the figures but I don't know that mine would be any better than ones posted on other collectible sites like rebelscum, etc.
Oh and random bit of SW trivia that I had no idea about, Wedge has a Scottish accent! I guess it seems obvious knowing that he's Ewan McGregor's uncle but I always assumed his character voice was his "real" voice, not an American accent he just did for the movies. I also learned that he did his normal Scottish accent in ANH which led George to have him dubbed by another actor. Who knew! I thought his voice sounded the same in all three movies. But ANH was a different guy and then it was Lawson himself doing an American accent for Empire and Jedi.
I take your word, no need to post pics unless you'd like to. Glad to hear its good. It looked a lot better at the show than previously.
Ha, I was updating my post with Denis Lawson trivia while you were replying.

I just noticed stupid Thrawn behind her.
They have no business being on what is otherwise an awesome poster.
Yes great selection of character moments across the board.
