Retailers need to have a good sell-through this holiday season, and from what I am starting to witness the week before Christmas, Hasbro’s line appears to be moving better right now than it was at this time in 2015/2016.
How about in your area? Are things moving, or does it look like a retail disaster? Share your thoughts and store reports after the jump!
So here were are the week before Christmas, and the same time TLJ his theaters… and another 3.75″ wave is starting to show up; wich includes a very familar face from the past year in Rogue One packaging.
Personal Note: While I applaud Hasbro for getting another 3.75″ assortment out right now, I have to question why they included this figure of Jyn. She is probably just going to add to the logjam of Hux, Rose and Finn that are already colllecting dust…
We all love Jyn, but she’s essentially a carry forward figure that pegwarmed like crazy all of last year. Is this the best you can do, Hasbro? How about throwing in a bizarre alien from Canto Bight instead? Or a resitance trooper with some removable gear? Or include a First Order Stormtrooper again? Sigh.
Am I right? Or being too harsh? Share your thoughts and recent finds in the forums!

Target has quite a few sales going on this week in the Star Wars section, but perhaps none are as enticing as the deals on Hasbro’s 3.75″ vehicle assortment.
Personal Note: If you’ve been holding out on these, now is the time to take the plunge (besides, Hasbro did a great job on these, so go ahead and drop a bit of cash, they are totally worth it!).
