Same here that entire wave is sitting at various stores since before Xmas around me.

I like the Poe figure but its soo bland and not at all exciting, especially since he only has a pea shooter packed in. I Kinda feel he should’ve been in a 2 pack or something…

All valid points. I only saw FO stormtooper sit at Walgreens and every odd Gamestop. Lando I never saw at any retail besides Gamestop once when a store got a solid case.

Phasma and Zuvio are still sitting at Toys R us stores near me.

Just trying to say certain characters/figures are “whatever” since I didn’t care for them or movie/product itself.

Snoke for instance I NEVER cared about and now he is dead… So I could care less adding him to my already large collection. The same went for the MILLION Clone troopers Hasbro made (and the CW line itself AT THE TIME).

I’ll be buying Rex and Rey at full retail, but will likely wait for a sale/price-cut before picking up DJ and Poe. I already have the others.

By the way, what is a “w/e character”?

You’re kidding right? Sure, I agree Rex will fly off the pegs and should have had 2 slots in this case or at least had better get carried forward in wave 16. But… ERG is going to sell out, no problem. I would expect a single new Rey per case to sell just fine. It is the figure I am most excited for after Rex (perhaps even more so than Rey (Jedi Training)). FO Stormtroopers always seem to do well and I don’t ever recall seeing them pegwarm throughout TFA. DJ may not be on everyone’s must-have list, but I think he’ll also do just fine as an all-new figure/character packed 1 per case.

I have no hard data, but I have the sense that Lando didn’t get very wide distribution the first time around. I never saw him at any area Walmarts, Targets or TRUs (though I did snag one from a regional retailer). Although Phasma is a straight repack she may still sell to those that missed her the first time around or to kids that weren’t collecting these during TFA. It’s a cool looking figure, definitely no Zuvio. Though I agree with others that some refreshing of this figure could have resulted in more sales. It’s nice for those that can comfortably skip it, but I may just have bought another if she came with her spear and a softgoods cape. That leaves Poe. He hasn’t been exactly piling up in my area, but he is a fairly slow mover. I could see how this second release could become a pegwarmer.

ah I think I got some of the same ones for $7 at a discount store. The other ones in the wave were the worst figures I’ve ever seen. The mold on Finn was soo over used its cheek was a valley… Looked like sloth from Goonies, BB-8 was only a black smudged on the head for a paint job, kylo had 2 right forearm’s and little paint, the best was chewie which makes ZERO sense he had a darker plastic and a dark wash over it! And The silver gauntlets were brighter. These all showed up at MANY K-marts as X-MAS B stock. Otherwise I would’ve swore these were bootlegs.

I got a bunch of those troopers for $9. They looked like ‘factory seconds’ as the paint apps on the helmet were not all that great. they are just cannon fodder for my aliens anyways 😉

I wonder how many other might be in the same boat. I mean I collect these but I DEFINITELY have priority so w/e characters like DJ (or Snoke, Rose, etc.) I’ll add down the road probably from an eBay lot.

One last thing I wonder if ALL the stormtroopers from this assortment are the left overs that HTS had for $9 and then disappeared. I recall for months being tempted to buy a dozen… Then poof gone.

That’s if someone had brains.

Then again, I’m not sure why they even changed the Stormtrooper helmet design since it’s barely noticeable?
