Im interested too. I heard Jan.14 somewhere but thats not confirmed.

Want to pick up a Han figure

Complaining about a $6 figure not looking perfect. Wow I'm sure glad I'm not autistic.
>>
>>5348069
don't you know that on /toy/ you're only supposed to collect figures with perfect paint, articulation and proportions, It doesn't even matter if you like the source material. In fact, if whatever you like ISN'T made that way, you shouldn't even buy the toys at all. Just buy the perfect toy of something you don't even care about.

Rey Sue with Luke's Lightsaber!
>>
>>5348083
I just dont get the Mary Sue hate towards Rey after one movie, especially compared to how miraculously dull Luke was after three.
>>
>>5348155
>can only barely fly the Falcon after years of messing with downed fighters
>learned to fight with that beaten old stick in order to survive on Jakku
>rather adept with the Force after having lived with a clear, focused mindset
>unclear on interpersonal interaction after years of isolation
Wow, she's super perfect! Ultimate Sue!
>>
>>5348252
>literally knows how to do everything
>defeats the bad guy because she's super duper special guys

Fuck you, she's a poorly written character.
>>
>>5347938
Hope we get a old jedi Luke figure too from the end of the movie
>>
>>5348285
maybe it's because she's used a fucking pole as a weapon before, you retarded dingus. jesus christ, people like you still exist? you're like the autistic kid you hear wailing in the hallways in school, while everyone else is in class. some smile and laugh, some pity them, and others like me think "damn, this retard sure is retarded"
>>
>>5348798
Jesus you're dumb, you're willing to accept any poor writing as long as it jerks you off enough huh? Get a life kid, and that means getting away from Star Wars for a change. Go watch a real movie once.
>>
>>5347816
Is there going to be a black series version of this Rey?
>>
>>5348820
Star Wars is just an entertaining franchise, it's not meant to have a deep, thought provoking, intense, soul searching story, it's about neat looking aliens & robots, good vs evil, and fan service.
>>
>>5348285
She sure sounds like a Skywalker.
>>
>>5348252
>>5348285
...so Luke Nounverber II.
>>
>>5348285
She was a mind reader. Ren challenged her to become his apprentice. In a way she did because she read his mind, learned, then kicked his ass. Like a taskmaster with mind-reading
>>
>>5348285
She's practiced her entire life with a staff weapon and she's become good with it. She's also use to living in hostile, harsh settings and keeping a level head and a calm mind. She won because Kylo Ren is an inexperienced little bitch baby who's way over confident and overly emotional. Even Finn smacked him once and survived for a good minute.
>>
>>5348285
I really don't understand the hate for Rey. Her accent wasn't even as bad as y'all made it out to be. And I agree with >>5349168, she was experienced enough from her life to stand up to Kylo and his tantrums. That's also fine considering the guy is like 19 and angry with his parents, basically being a bitch suited his character.

The worst part of the movie was that last shot with the camera spinning around the cliff, much too JJ for my taste and not even suited for a Star Wars film. Also Poe's absence throughout most of the movie could have been handled differently, otherwise I really enjoyed this film.

On topic though, those toys look like shit so why bother.
>>
I'm kind of hoping for a maskless-Ren, do you think they'll do that?
>>
>>5349239
Will they make toys of every Star Wars character in every outfit or state of being ever seen on screen? Yes. Hell, they already made "has a bit of snow on his robes" Kylo Ren.
>>
>>5349223
>last shot with the camera spinning around the cliff
Yes. A horrible shot to end the movie on.

A wide shot of them in profile looking at each other would have been cleaner.
>>
>>5348155
In the original Star Wars trilogy Luke sucks at saving people and doing things, he is a character almost always in danger and it creates stakes. He is saved by Obi Wan throughout the first film, saved by Han on the Death Star, Saved by Leia and Lando at the end of Empire, saved by R2 when trying to rescue Han and Leia, saved by his dad after he lost. Rey was almost never in danger with the exception of the first meeting with Kylo Ren. She is great at everything, Han Solo likes her, she can fly the Falcon despite stating she never flew a ship like it before, she is able to use the force to call the light saber to her something it took Luke like 2 movies to achieve, she overpowers and defeats if you don't consider him a master an adept force user, the son of Leia and Han trained by Luke in the force who idolizes his grandfather the most powerful jedi/sith ever after just learning of her connection to the force.

If you honestly don't think she's a Mary Sue, you really don't understand what a Mary Sue is.
>>
>>5349268
To be fair, while I still kind of think Rey is a Mary Sue in many ways, how she beat Ren was a little fair.

Kylo isn't anywhere near as powerful or as intimidating as his grandfather, and he knows it. He uses the mask and crazy lightsaber to attempt to create an image to him to be feared by, but in the end, he's literally a child trying to be edgy. Sure he could use the Force, but it makes sense for him to not be great at saber battles, he doesn't have his grandfather's experience. The only people he fought with the saber were some walls, and people who were defenseless. Then Finn, who was just a Stormtrooper and never handled melee weapons.
>>
>>5349275
The lightsaber is because he used an imperfect kyber crystal making it unstable.
>>
>>5349286
I was actually referring to the fact that he clearly made a very unique lightsaber with a cross-guard, in an attempt to make something of himself.
>>
>>5347938
>han solo
>>
>>5349268
>Han Solo likes her so she must be a Mary Sue
Seriously, please consider the fact that you're comparing a newly introduced character to one that has been present in three films. Luke never piloted an X-Wing before the Battle of Yavin yet he made the shot with the Force that destroyed the Death Star, even though he only trained once with a battle remote. This is just grasping at straws nothing more.
>>
>>5349324
Its stated multiple times that Luke was the best pilot of his friends.
>>
>>5349324
>shooting womp rats on tatooine with a ship he's an expert with that has similar controls and handling to an x-wing didn't train him to hit an exhaust port that's bigger than the rats
sure is newfag who never watched the movies
Using the force only helped a little
>>
>>5349331
>>5349335
Yes yes, womp rats were no bigger than the exhaust port but that is not the same as making the shot during an intense trench run while being chased by Vader. Not that I dislike that scene but I've always thought it was a huge jump from farm boy to being the best pilot of the Rebellion.
>>
>>5349353
>womp rats were no bigger than the exhaust port but that is not the same as making the shot during an intense trench run while being chased by Vader
But he was being escorted to make the bombing run and he was in the clear with Han shooting the tie fighters away so he could concentrate.
Go watch the fucking movie!

>to being the best pilot of the Rebellion
All he did was SURVIVE in A New Hope. That has more to do with luck than most anything else. Just like in WW2.
As for being an ace pilot, he could have developed his skills later on since he was a REBEL fighting in a WAR. Lots of shit could and did happen inbetween the movies.
>>
Aren't these 5 POA shit? Why even bother?
>>
>>5349268
Seems like a key plot point is being ignored. Han says Luke was training TWO children to be jedi. Rey was left on a planet by her parents who promised to return some day. Since starwars films are usually pretty straight forward, it stands to reason that Rey is the second child Luke was training and was hidden away from the first order on Jakku for her own protection.
>>
>stop collecting after TVC since stores barely had anything except pegwarmers like Daultay Dofine
>Miss out on Tarkin, Wedge, etc.

When did the 3.75 line go to shit?
>>
>>5349493
Its stated that Luke was training Jedi not how many, its implied multiple and implied they were killed by Kylo Ren. This is film, this isn't television it doesn't matter if we find out later that she has secret Jedi training from Luke in film you are suppose to take the information in front of you and it should make a complete puzzle, it shouldn't follow the rules of television because it doesn't work that way.
>>
>>5351481
I'm assuming some of the trainees joined Kylo as the knights of Ren as well.
>>

Man, I kept telling people that them shifting scales would result in massive, massive disappointment. But people got what they wanted, and now we have two shitty lines instead of one good one.
>>
>>5349168

Fighting with a staff is different than a saber, the saber has like zero mass for one, it's made of LIGHT.
>>
>>5351511

Yeah, I kind of got sick of Rey real quick. She needs to get her super saiyan shit cut back real bad for the next couple movies...it's going to be real boring if she's perfect in those too.
>>
>>5349512
>When did the 3.75 line go to shit?
When Disney bought Star Wars.
>>
>>5351511
>Princess Leia hugs her instead of Chewie even tho it's the first time they met
>>
>>5349137
She absorbed some of his force power the same way ren tried to collect vader artifacts. She could wield the light side of the force almost naturally because she was a good person. Not a whiney brat like luke of a dork like anakin.

Ren was only half-bad and still training to be sithy, Rey was just naturally light-sided.

I'm not even an EU fag, but thats a more interesting interpretation than miniclorians and jedi camp for little kids.
>>
>>5351515
Sabers clearly have mass retard, it's apparent in both the OT and TFA. Also is everybody foretting that not only was Kylo shot in the fucking stomach a few minutes earlier but he also already fought Finn and took some damage from that.
>>
I work at toysrus, and we have them sitting in the u-boats in the back.
We aren't supposed to put them out until after Christmas afaik though.

Are the figures of Finn selling poorly or is it just a meme?
>>
>all you faggots super anal blasted because a g-g-g-grill is a capable character
get rekt.
>>
>>5355590
I'm not complaining, I was pretty much hard af throughout the film watching Rey getting all sweaty and dirty.
>>
>>5355580
probably both.

In my area, he seems to be equally sold out with the other characters and equally not sold, depending on the store.
No doubt, in shittier cities and states, more racist areas will be have abundant Finns.

After watching the movie, i almost want to buy him.
Almost.
I should note that the only figure I want to buy from the entire 6" line is the new snowtrooper. I'm still maybe for Kylo. Still not sure whether to get the black series or figuarts version.
>>
>>5355629
>Nobody bought Finn be ause racism
>Not nobody bought Finn because they know nothing about his character or what he does yet.

Really? I didn't give a fuck a out Finn til I saw the movie. Now he was one of my favorite characters after seeing it. I'm probably gonna go buy a toy of him now.

It sure as fuck made me dislike Rey though. She had no development of any kind. At least Finn had an arc.
>>
>>5355580
All of his black series, his 3.75, and even his costume sold out today.
The only ones we had left were a 3.75 Poe.
>>
>>5355646
That's just the way it seems to me.
Face characters seem to equally sell as good as each other. The only guy who i always see is the green hat alien.
the hat alien i'd have bought if this line had a proper 1:18 line. I'd actually have bought all of these in 1:18, but as 1:12, I only buy the one that look coolest.
>>
>>5355590
>you cant criticize a female character for being a boring perfect mary sue because else tumblrites will cry that men just cant accept capable ladies

Ok.

But she was still a Mary Sue.

Nothing to do with her being a capable female character. It has to do with her not having any real development or struggle. Her only struggle is not wanting to be perfect while she is perfect.

And wow, that's like -- so sympathetic.

Seriously, this is such a repeat of the Korra-Asami shit.

"Korra and Asami bisexual shit reveal was kinda badly done."

"HURR DURR YOU HOMOPHOBIC MANCHILDREN JUST CANT HANDLE A STRONG GAY OR BISEXUAL FEMALE CHARACTER."
>>
Imagine if the characters of Sarah Connor or Ellen Ripley were written as badly as Rey.
>>
>>5355670
The same happened with Jar Jar in the 90s, kids wanted Star Wars stuff and the only available stuff in christmas eve were Jar Jar and another shelfwarmers.
>>
>>5355773
>Her only struggle is not wanting to be perfect while she is perfect.
But her struggle is her stunted mentality of forever waiting for her parents to come back to her shithole planet while not wanting anything to do with First Order shit. That's hardly got to do with being "perfect", if anything it makes her pretty damn autistic.
>>
>>5351494
The knights of ren are the Jedi luke was training. The defectors are referred to as "The Seven" in the visual dictionary because of this. Kylo Ren is named Kylo Ren because he keeps that name after turning to the darkside.
>>
>>5355950
Link or proof.
>>
>>5355906
Oh she's stunted all right. Stunted for any interesting aspects about her character.
>>
>>5355953
Just my opinion. The only proof I can offer is the guy getting stabbed in the forceback is a "Knight of Ren" in the credits. I'm guessing Luke found a temple from some old Jedi named Ren (the temple he finds in the Weapon of a Jedi books perhaps), and based his teachings on what he learned from the holocrons found within it.

http://m.imdb.com/title/tt2488496/fullcredits/cast?ref_=m_tt_cl_sc

If you scroll down to Mark Stanley (the guy in the forceback scene with a funny hat) it say's he played a Knight of Ren. This has been confirmed by multiple people viewing the actual credits of the film including myself.
>>
To add more to the flawed writing in Rey, I just want to say that her "seeing Han Solo as a father figure" made little sense when the two barely knew each other that much within a short amount of time. I don't like that she is too "blessed by fate".compared to Luke and Anakin, though this is Star Wars so I can't say I didn't expect this coming from the start.

Poe was the best of the three and he was barely given screentime.
>>
>>5355966
I don't think it's so much that they got to know each other, but how they were able to relate with their likes and quirks allowed her to see in him the father she never had. Admittedly, if she turns out to be Han's daughter, I actually think that would make the whole circumstance between her spending time with Han and his resulting death from Kylo Ren would be pretty damn tragic especially since she'll only find out about it in retrospect.
>>

>grew up hearing stories of Han Solo

hmmmmmmmmm

When the FUCK does Wave Having And Old Luke Figure come out?
>>
>>5348069

they cost like 15 euro here. Marvel Universe used to cost a tenner.
>>
>>5348155

Because nerds are vapid and sexist as fuck because they've constructed entire institutions to make it difficult to call them out on it without being made into a joke.

Gary Stus rarely ever get called out. There'll be some asshole ready with a "well actually" but it does not change this basic fucking fact.

Plus I'm sure it'll be like Ahsoka and we get to see her fuck up plenty as time goes on.
>>
>>5356680
Ahsoka's a better written character than Rey. Like...by miles and miles.
>>
>>5356698

Ahsoka had 100+ episodes to develop plus now she's in Rebels. Star Wars mainline movies always had strong elements of wish fulfillment, regardless. Give it a rest.
>>
>>5351511
>sith lord
>kylo ren
pick one
>>
>>5351511

>trained fucking Sith Lord

since when?
>>
>>5356709

Ahsoka was a better written character in the Clone Wars movie. From the very start she was a better, more interesting character than Rey ever was in 2 hours of bullshit.
>>
>>5356727
>>5356729
>kylo ren is not a sith lord
I don't get how people can into discussion without getting this shit straight. Every. Fucking. Time.

I liked Kylo Ren in the film, but the guy was clearly inexperienced af, throws tantrums on a regular basis, and even Snoke comments on how he still needs to finish his training. Hell his use of the Force seems to be driven by pure emotions and only seems to hold up when he's pissed as hell else it kind of just fizzles out. People make out Rey's win against as if it was some BS accomplishment, yet forget that Kylo Ren was heavily injured and can hardly be considered to be a legit Sith Lord at all.
>>
>>5356783
He's not a sith, he is a dark jedi. The sith were wiped out in RoTJ
>>
>>5351511
>> Flies the Falcon after literally zero flight experience living on Tatooine foraging for scraps.
Works for the new owner of the Falcon, knows about the modification implying she was there watching/helping, her work as a scavenger depends on how good the found pieces are, she obviously had years to learn that stuff.
>> Knows how to fix the Falcon better than fucking Han Solo
Same as above.
>> Master force user despite zero training or even knowledge of ability.
We don't know, the Luke helmet, doll implies she knew luke -spoiler- its been confirmed that she´s luke daughter, when you fight Kylo in the Diney infinity game he screams: "face me cousin!"
>> Defeats a trained fucking Sith Lord on saber combat despite never wielding a saber or the force before 10 minute previous.
A dark jedi who has'n finished his training who was heavely wounded by a direct bowcaster shot, notice how JJ enfasize how powerful the bowcaster is during the previous fights.
>>
>>5356981
>not a sith
That's literally what I meant by my post.
>>
>>5357018
>luke's daughter

bleh i'm hoping that's a red herring would make more sense for her to be han's kid leia never told him about
>>
>>5357587
How about a compromise? What if she's both Luke and Leia's daughter?
>>
>>5357589
How progressive!
>>
>>5357018
>Kylo in the Diney infinity game he screams: "face me cousin!"
This is wrong.

He actually says "Curses!" when hit.

Guy said he hit Kylo right after he said "Face me". He misheard.
>>
>>5355677

The reason no one will buy Zuvio or whatever that hat wearing is called is because he's not in the movie, he's a cut character.
>>
Where can I find an accurate value on old SW toys? I have a bunch of Power of the Force stuff, just curious if they are any valuable.
>>
>>5357710
POTF stuff is worthless. Unless you mean the actual vintage Power of the Force...in which case most of it's worth pretty big bank.
>>
>>5357714
I kind of assumed so, one website had everything at a dollar but some websites had them at 10 so I wasn't sure what was accurate. I think it's mostly the green POTF but I'm going to keep digging through my dads old stuff and see if I can find any ROTJ or Empire stuff
>>
>>5351515
And if you rewatch the fight she's clearly using staff based moves and poses while wielding the saber.
>>
>>5351515
>>5359578
I was thinking this as well. She used the saber in a really different way from what we've seen and considering her proficiency with her staff, it actually makes sense.
