Disney + The Mandalorian

[Kamandi]

New episode tonight. I liked it.

Spoiler

Heavy influences from Lone Wolf and Cub.

Watched it last night and enjoyed it. I liked the Mandalorian and IG-11 and seeing more practical effects instead of everything being CGI. The Spaghetti Western feel fits the show perfectly so hopefully that'll keep going throughout the season. Also, I don't care what anyone says--I need a 1:1 figure of the thing at the end. That s*** was adorable.

This X1,000,000 First person to make a life-size puppet gets all the moneys. I don’t think I’ve wanted something that bad since Gizmo.

New episode was so good. I think this is my favorite piece of Star Wars since ESB, which I hate saying because people throw "the best since ESB" around every time a new piece of Stah Wahs media is released. I really mean it, I promise!

The Sandcrawler scene was the perfect mix of action, intensity and fun. I loved seeing some Jawas get blasted and thrown out the windows.

I thought the

Lannik baby

was going to be overdone, but it's such a good character. Super adorable.

Can't wait for the next episode. Between this and the Imagineering documentary series, I think I'm definitely going to keep Disney+ around for a while longer.

I need every single character and vehicle from this in Hasbro's TVC line yesterday.

But do they:

Spoiler

Have the baby in 1:18 scale yet?

 

[BATMAN]

Nope.

It doesn't surprise me since Disney doesn't give Hasbro any potential spoiler reference material for Star Wars toys. I really hope they go all-out, this series has amazing potential and could really revitalize TVC if handled right.

This is what happens when power is taken away from kathleen keneddy lol.

Well the wife wanted Disney + so I bit the bullet....watched the first two episodes and I gotta say I really enjoyed it. After the first episode I wasn’t sure but the second episode was really good. Hopefully the show continues to deliver on that level. I am super confused as to when this takes place though, before a new hope? Before the clone wars? After? can someone tell me

 

[Kamandi]

It takes place about five years after Return of the Jedi and the fall of the Empire.

Ah! Thanks! I was so confused....I couldn’t figure out if that was yoda or what. Thanks again

 

[Jotaro Something]

This second episode was pretty good

Spoiler

I just kept expecting the baby Yoda to do a force thing, so THE moment of this episode was predictable for me, yet, it was awesome and well executed. It didn't disappoint

The Vintage Collection lost some of its appeal. I’m not sure why, but I’m going to blame the toy overhaul that Hasbro did when TFA launched.

Star Wars branding strategy sucks right now. For the last several films they haven't done any film specific packaging. When I think back at the toys Hasbro created for the PT films vs what they do now it's so small and pathetic.

Star Wars needs to right the ship on screen and in the toy isle. It's time for fresh blood. Hasbro is out of steam.

Regardless.. haven't received a single infraction on here (both versions of the site) so..

PGC >>>>>>>>>>>> SSF
or whatever that shithole is called now!

Hasbro is fine. The new packaging they had for the black series was nice. Granted, it’s first edition stuff, but whatever.

The problem isn’t Hasbro. It’s Disney. They require uniformity and consistency, in the packaging.

Still, I actually don’t mind the packaging of the Black Series or the 1/6 Star Wars stuff. However, I can’t tell you how many times someone has whined about it in YouTube videos. It got old real fast.

Im trying to keep thread spoiler free for our UK friends

But lol @Snake Plissken dude click this

Spoiler

Is Kojima stealing Favreau or is it just a trend to have a guy do deliveries with a baby this year?

 

[Snake Plissken]

That's most certainly fanart.

 

[RavenEye]

That's most certainly fanart.

I just find the resemblance funny as hell

Not enough wahmen!!

 

[Darth Maul]

If only I could end their miserable lives in a flash.

 

[Jotaro Something]

So close to figuring out why the Mandalorian is so good, so close yet so far...
