The packaging with colorful character illustrations is easily the best thing about these. Articulation and paint apps have returned to 1995-standards, while the collector market is left with the $255 'inbred' Chewbacca:



They're making it easy to skip this stuff.

I completely agree, Topeka. This looks like a bunch of rehashes...

Few more in this one....

LEGO press images. Although most of these have been seen before - it should be noted that these images give a few clues to VII's plot points.







Dameron flies a Blue X-Wing in the beginning of the film then later is "Black in Black" with a black pilot helm with Black X-Wing accessory.

Rey is described as both a "survivor" living a life in "solitude" as a "scavenger". Rey has conflict with a Jakku goup known as "Kanjiklub Gang" whose members include "Tasu Leech" and
"Unkar".

The Hot Toys 1:6 Scale Chewbacca is damn difficult not only to photograph, but to light.
The version I saw at Celebration Anaheim, which I photographed up close and personal, looked really nice.
I am looking forward to receiving my set, which includes Smuggler Han Solo.



ParamoreMCR88's photo, turned out pretty darn great.

The BB-8 toy is absolutely incredible.

New dude. He's look cool, but "un-Star Wars-like."

I'm not going on a mega toy haul tomorrow, but if I can pick up this guy I absolutely want to play around with him.

Got caught up in the frenzy and hit it up my nearest Toys "R" Us.

Back with two Black Series figures (Finn and Kylo Ren) that I won't open and LEGO Poe's X-wing that'll ornament my desk quite nicely.

No Sphero app-controlled BB-8 at my store, though.

Made some new friends and had a great time!

My stash..... kept it small. Not much at Wal-Mart...

Really cool design, does resemble Deadpool a bit. I don't think he will be among the first wave or 2 of 6-inch figures.

The big old 3 are obviously being held back in every conceivable way, during this initial launch period, so my haul was modest today as well. The 6-inch FO Stormtrooper and Kylo did look rather sexy, tho.

I wonder how much is being held back for spoiler reasons.

Yeah, interesting that there are no "Snoke" action figures or paraphernalia.

has a hux come out? we know what he looks like

Wave 2 for General Hux.

BB-8 is pretty novel. Bed Bath + Beyond is the place to get him at. Sold out everywhere else.

Poe is pretty cool with his lightsaber on the promotional stand at the entrance of the Toy'r'us

Thanks for the tip. Just placed my order.

Not his.

Not yet, but he is due in both 3.75" and 6" series of figures.




My haul for ForceFriday was considerable, but only found about 80% of what I wanted.
Retail severely underestimated the appeal of NEW Star Wars merchandise here in Australia.
Only TRU stocked the 6" Series of figures and they were completely sold out, before I set foot into the store.

As usual, the "Bad Guy" figures are the first ones to go. I had to travel to FIVE different locations, before I found a full set of 12 basic figures. Kylo Ren, Captain Phasma and to a lesser degree - the first order Stormtrooper, were all cherry picked from the first four locations I visited -- Kmart, 2x Big W, TRU and Target. This weekend, has been quite insane for shopping Star Wars.

The Phasma figure is simple but beautiful;




New bad guy, Kylo Ren is quite awesome as well.
Makes nice phone wallpaper.



Good luck everyone and MTFBWY.

Well, I could see someone looking at that promo at first glance and assuming as much, so I thought I should clarify.

Not sure if this has been posted yet but I think I’ve found a new droid from TFA..."PZ-4CO"???

This is not my sale or has anything to do with me...just copied & pasted the link to the site...

I think the seller is being rather ambitious trying to sell it for £75!!!
