You should look up all the stuff featured at celebration or every comic con if you’re in doubt.
Wouldn’t be my thing at all. Thank fuck.
Special limited stuff, yes, but the toys released to the general public, not so much. A few years back I sold two garbage bags of prequel toys unopened for like 20 bucks to a comic store.
Yeah cos th prequels stuff isn’t worth shit. The limited ranges now and the vintage an vintage rereleases are huge. And mad expensive to get into as its kind of never ending.

This is worrying. One of the making Star Wars lads has gone missing. Isn’t answering call or messages. Phone was active last night. He’s a really sweet kid. This is sad.
If you’re in or near Florida a retweet might make all the difference.

Reading some of the conversation on this, people think he might harm himself?

Seems so biut only within the bounds of his not answering and no other evidence. It’s out of character for him.
Hope he’s ok and found safe. He’s a lovely guy.

I don't collect anymore but I really like the vintage style of these figure packs. I wished they would have used something similar for the normal toys for TFA and TLJ (and the PT for that matter)

What if Palpatine and Anakin are actually alive? What if the Emperor had found some way to concentrate midichlorians to the point they become corporeal again?

Think they did actually. But it’s always relatively limited ranges and editions as far as I know.
My pals always searching and complaining he can’t find x anywhere and th other guy saying the racks are packed here.
There’s a strategy to how they distribute I’m sure but to create a huge secondary market is definitely a thing. Intentional or not. They’d make more money if they just made more of them and distribution was leveled out

So there doing more reshoots because from what I have heard and read, JJ pretty much just made return of the jedi again, ugh what a nightmare.

I doubt it. ROTJ has a pretty nonsensical first act. And second and third are fairly silly, apart from sneaking onto Endor and the big space battle. It would be hard to emulate that exactly.
Big showdown with Rey and Kylo is inevitable. Big space battle is a maybe.
Other than that what can he ‘copy’?

He could have the Emperor coming back to life and manipulate some kind of fight between Kylo and Rey on the ruins of the Death Star with an unexpected result. This would be close to the Luke - Vader fight on the Death Star where Vader betrays and kills the Emperor in ROTJ.
As much as I enjoyed TFA, it was very similar to ANH so he's proven he can do this. Reviving Palps like Force Ghost, which would still be a first for a Sith in the movies, is about all I could accept. But with him back in play, we do run the danger of ROTJ Part II!!!! No!!!!!!!

So the Mandalorian comes out before this. Wonder if there will be any cameos in the movie?

Eff the rhyming crap. We’ve had “it’s like poetry. It rhymes” for like 20 years. That doesn’t hold up anymore with mediocre movies that we’ve received from LFL.
And trying to make these movies rhyme with the others just reeks of no creativity.
Just make good movies.
