I assume you're referring to the Carbonite platform? Yeah it is kind of underwhelming, isn't it? And they continue the trend of no figures included. It better be cheap.
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. Agree man, my wallet is very relieved.

LoL yeah I meant the Carbonite Platform. It's very underwhelming. Like with Jabba's Palace I hope we get more sections to add to it in the future. It's more a nice display to put your figures around but there is no play value in it at all. Also if you have either or of the Ugnaughts figures from 2009 who come with the console to operate the chamber you're all set, this set doesn't have it's own control panel.
They sort of glossed over that Storm Trooper. Is that the Rogue One Stormy on an ESB card? I watched it here at work with the subtitles on. It kept saying hazard instead of Haslab.

So I guess there are no new Mando figures on the horizon? If that's the case, what a bummer.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's technically half a carbonite set, and you have to buy two, and put them together? And they quickly showed a VC Storm Trooper on an ESB Card. That wasn't a pack in with the set, right?

There is always a chance that the Has lab set could be the ship. I am really wanting the Armorer myself!

So yeah it just HALF the set, but it sounds like the ESB Stormie is included (fairly sure it's the R1 Stormie) like the figures that came with Jabba's set. I guess you could buy 2 halves, and sell off one of the Stormies to off set the cost. I'll wager the figure will be the hot item not the set itself.

The TVC revival continues to be a fucking joke.

I know it’s been a while since it was released, but the BMF never cracked $200 in any of its previous versions. For 400 there better be some significant changes and improvements.

As someone who used to army build, I get tired of the stormtrooper shit. You know what I mean. Not findable at retail (like anything is), after market prices soar, supposed whole cases are produced but not enough (because there's a lot of army builders, hoarders and scalpers) Just make a million of the damn things and offer them Hasbro Pulse/ebay Hasbro Toy Shop year round and call it a day.
So instead they make one on a ESB card with a playset even though there's better figures choices to include. It's not even a silly gimmick like "chamber glow" paint job. Apparently it's not the Rogue One figure, as that was design to reflect that movie, minor costume differences. You'd need two of this new Carbon Chamber playset, it would take up a lot display place. I'd almost rather track down the POTJ playset. Of course the BMF is $400, they've been saying for years that such a reissue would be expensive, that's just how much production costs went up (if you believe them). |
