1/6 Speculation: Star Wars Episode IX Figures

[user 67922]

Yeah don’t understand why they reused the SOLO design. I’d been happy seeing a new mix of Bespin and Rebel General outfit on old Lando

The bright yellow just doesn’t really suit a man his age. Like you said something closer to ESB or ROTJ would’ve made more sense. It’s hardly likely an 80 year old man would suddenly start dressing the same as when he was 20. He’s at least 25 years too old for a mid-life crisis. It seems a too obvious attempt to fit him in with Donald Glover’s Lando.

Yeah even if we hadn't already seen that outfit in the previous movie, it still wouldn't seem that appropriate or fitting for an older Lando like this.

I kind of think it was sending a message by Abrams. I can’t see him doing this just for saving design idea time. We don’t know if Lando was part of the REsistence If you think about it, Glover’s Lando was a outlaw, gangster type of Lando. Maybe Abrams using this outfit is signaling that Lando left the rebellion long ago and went back to his old ways, if you think about it , they had Han leave the Rebels and Leia and become a smuggler again in the TFA history after they lost Ben Solo.

In many ways, this Rey timeline is the darkest time for the Rebels. Han left them, Luke left and Leia who was a princess, is a general now. In short, the Rebellion has changed dramatically and maybe Lando is doing his own thing now

Okay, that’s an interesting idea. So, kind of like a symbolic thing. A bit like they did with Han in TFA. I have to say regardless of the reason for doing it, he still looks kind of odd.

Totally agree.I didn’t like the suit for Glover either

But it makes sense right , The Rebels turning into the Resistance and the key ranked generals in Luke and Han leaving them years ago forcing Leia to take a rank to keep the group together etc so why does Lando need to stick around

I’m just happy Lando is back. I’m not too picky about his outfit. Didn’t one of the leaks mention that he had a different outfit later in the movie?

I hope Billy can still bring it in the role because physically, he is a mess , so it all comes back to his delivery and acting skills because I’m not expecting much in terms of Lando being physically active

I can only hope this will be one more movie I want nothing from. I buy enough figures.

Other than TFA Kylo and Jakkutrooper, I can proudly say I own nothing from the JJ Trilogy.

Technically is it really known as JJ’s trilogy ..he wasn’t involved in TLJ

I blame him all the same. He's the producer with overseer KK.

ST trilogy

KK Trilogy

JJ Trilogy

Disney Trilogy

I see it as EP 1-6

Lucas - “ I’m involved 100% “

EP VIII

Abrams- “ I’m not directing, you’re on your own “

The hood on Rey's costume looks sick. Will 100% buy her figure. If Kylo's comes with helmet + unmasked sculpt I'll grab his too.

Yeah. Definitely Rey. She looks sick in that outfit.

I don’t remember him doing lots of stunts in the OT. He mostly just talked a lot and piloted the Falcon.

True but he galloped through Bespin. He can’t even walk right after his numerous surgeries over the years

I wish I didn't buy anything, but I did buy some TFA stuff when it came out. I would sell it all but it's not worth anything. The flame trooper is actually very cool and was also featured in pretty cool scene. The opening TFA scene where Kylo lands was the best part of either movie...all downhill from there

I think he’ll do fine. He’s probably just going to do more piloting, and of course flirting with the ladies.

I'm a bit the same. But I figure I may as well enjoy the core ST team I have. I only want Poe in flight gear with black helmet, and that'll round out the team. Hopefully when the kids who grew up with this Trilogy are a bit older I'll be able to offload them at cost ??

But until then they're fine. Perhaps a couple of figures from the PT surrounding mainly OT figures and it should make for a decent collection.

Mastersides is a perfect example. Beautiful collection. Check it out. From Post #3406

Barring how this movie goes (I'm genuinely interested after the teaser), I could see myself getting the "final" versions of Rey and Kylo. Maybe...

And any version of Palpatine they give. Curious what his role will be.

And if the Knights of Ren really show out, then that could also be an interesting option.

Leaked photo of Rey's other outfit, rehash of ROTJ it seems [emoji6]

Hmm, I would definitely not mind seeing Daisy Ridley in that.
