It’s probably about 1015 years ago if they would’ve had stuff like this, people would’ve been clamoring through the roof to grab it because that’s when Star Wars was still alive and viable and you could literally print money with it, but you know the sad truth is this if Amazon is having a fire sale and they’re having a tough time getting rid of stuff how hard do you think it’s going to be for Hasbro to unload themselves of all of this stuff we may be looking at something we’ve not seen since the early 80s with the whole ET and the 2600 fiasco remember remember when they were landfills cartridges for the Atari 2600 fiasco

    Like, why don't they focus on making action figures of legends characters? Make figures that fans actually want instead of trying to force unsuccessful concepts down their throats. No one is buying anything from the Disney sequel trilogy or their crappy TV shows. As a collector I can tell you I own most of my favorites from the movies, games, and comics I love and adore. Like I just got Mara Jade with a blaster in one hand and a purple saber on the other. I love it, especially accompanied with Luke Skywalker. They need to do more stuff like that. Give us characters we actually want to go out and buy because following Disney's sh#% is not a good plan and it ain't working. I want a Darth plagueis figure, I want a Darth Bane figure, a satele shan figure, a kreia and sion figure, a vitiate figure . Not this continuous hogwash they keep churning out that no true fan would ever buy with actual money that they work hard to obtain. No thank you. 😫🤦

    You knowing the Old saying, if you fail try, try again! I'm buying Star Wars. At Ross $2.99 a figure made by the one company that started the Saga. Kenner see you at Ross

    Why would anyone want a figure of Rose Tiko or Holdo? What scenes can they replay with them? What relevance do they have?

    I remember seeing tons of star wars toys in the late 80s up into 1990 at toy stores. Nobody wanted them.
