Really looking forward to this Roadblock! The first one has nothing of value, when this has everything!! Do these still have no stands? At least my four Amazon figures have them :P

Yeah...most likely "fun" toys for kids...but for collectors we are seeing: big, silly-looking, bulky gimmicks, generic looking weapons, limited articulation, inaccurate depictions of characters, lame packaged figures. I'll pick up a Commander and customize it if I can, but there is nothing, no figures, no vehicles, that have my interest what-so-ever. Sad thing is, I'll bet I see see these first two waves covered in dust hanging out on store shelves till December in abundance. I figure they'll sell for a bit with the movie, and then kids will turn their attention elsewhere once the fad wears off, and no one will want these crappy things. Still hoping we see figures as detailed as the POC line, and that we eventually do get movie accurate runs...but I've lost some faith in Hasbro. Feel like they dropped the ball on this round :(

Now that the movie is getting pushed back how is that going to affect the toy sales? Sometimes I think Hasbro likes messing with us collectors
