Soooo we're getting a staircase?! Oh, and Bespin escape Leia...she arrives next year. I've never been so excited to then be immediately disappointed at the same time. 6" collectors didn't fair any better. Lots of reissues on vintage Kenner card and the Rebel Snow Trooper-which I think was already revealed. Man was hoping for a Snow Speeder rerelease as well as maybe an Ugnaught and/or Bespin Security Guard rerelease on vintage card and maybe a new Lobot. No mention here of the Falcon. Bespin staircase comes with a R1 Storime carded on an ESB card, not the traditional Stormie card art but a shot of the trooper on the carbon freeze platform. Looks cool. 2 stair cases and be butted against each other to form the complete carbon freeze scene but without the ceiling it looks very sparse.
Haslab tease will be this year, another TVC item, but no idea what it is. There was also a tease for a Sentinel for the Marvel Legends line earlier this year. Not sure it’s a good idea if both go love at the same year as fan bases may over lap and compete with each other.

$400 for a Falcon? I just can't digest that pricing. Would love to buy one, but that price is kind of silly to me. I don't care how many layers of paint detailing it has. Is it comparably sized to the sail barge?

Yeah the pricing in crazy considering they already have it developed and tooled. This would be the third release of it. It is massive, and awesome, and has some great sound effects and lights built in but it isn’t the 4’ that the Barge is.

Not sure it’s a good idea as fan bases may over lap and compete with each other. The Falcon is still technically just rumored, I think, it wasn't officially revealed today. Not sure how Yakface already knows the starting price, but he's usually dead on. $400 is alot, and once again we may have eBay to thank for that. They're currently selling for $700-$900 on eBay (sealed). I'm happy to hear they'll be doing another Star Wars Haslab, but that sounds like it's a very long way off. The Chirrut figure looks nice. Overall, a bit of a letdown today, but that's good for my wallet. I logged in to Pulse & BBTS before the reveals, to see exactly how much stuff I already have pre-ordered....and yikes. Probably good there wasn't any must have reveals for me today.

Not too familiar with Droid Factory. Those are 1/18th, right?

I saw the part of the video with the Carbon Freeze Chamber.
I’ll have to look at the pre-orders tomorrow to see the full list of TVC figures and a pic of the Bespin Escape Leia. My guess for TVC HasLab is the Death Star.
