I'd get all the chicks then! X{D

Just got back from Rogue. It's amazing!

Maybe Ahsoka is going to get a movie? But if they did that, I'd hope it would have the Spectres too.

Red 5 was also Asian/Polynesian so there's a racial stereotype too. I think Hollywood hates fat people. I could be wrong.

A 1/12th scale Ghost would be huge! (like 12x9x4 feet.) And no telling what they'd charge. They should just make the common room and the cockpit in 6" out of cardstock like the Cantina they did in the 90's. Cheap but detailed.

That survey you linked to has me worried they're about to start selling only one scale. And that would suck. That one question about which scale would you want if they only sold figures in that scale.

They could easily do all the speeder bikes and swoop bikes in 6". And the Snowspeeder is pretty small. Same with the A-wing and Jedi Starfighters. A TIE Interceptor or Striker should be cheaper/less plastic than the plain L/N TIE's. A STAP from TPM would be easy too. :{

I just watched the Collider review and they brought that Bail and Mon convo up. Apparently a lot of people thought he was referring to Ahsoka too but it was in fact Leia. I didn't catch that the convo had shifted to who he was sending to find Obi.

Yeah, my guess is that just the common room and maybe the cockpit would be big enough to fit the figures, kind of like the 3.75 Falcon, not accurate to scale from the inside but an awesome toy. It wouldn't have to be big enough for them to stand up in, just to sit. But it's probably a long shot. They've done the ROTJ speeder with scout trooper. I just looked up the price on amazon and it's going for about $40. Basically $20 for the speeder. Not too bad.

I hope they don't phase out 3.75. Maybe they were just trying to gauge the interest in each scale to determine which one to make more figures for, or how much more they can rip off people on each line.

I guess since he's her stepdad, him saying he trusts her with his life is expected. He raised her as his own daughter and really trusts who she is and how strong Leia is.

I want them to at least do the 3.75" Ghost soon. As long as there aren't weird features like how they did the TFA Falcon toy. The Ghost would need to dock the Phantoms and have the main deck(rooms, common room, and galley) and the cargo bay ramp area. And the docking ring halls. The turrets and cockpit obviously.

I can see how the Scout/Speeder bike combo is a good deal. They should sell the bikes by themselves too though.

lol Yeah, they're probably doing that. Budgeting their next few waves through customer feedback makes sense.

But they need to hurry up and phase out the 5POA lines. I feel bad for the kids who are being limited by their figure's articulation. 80's GI JOES have more articulation(I think they're like 18POA if I'm counting right). And sometimes they had better sculpts. The 90's Star wars figures were jacked up on steroids for some reason.

R1 toys in 3.75" scale need the Krennec Shuttle. That thing is cool. I wish the wings weren't so long(makes it look like Kylo's shuttle), but the shape of the hull is cool. Like the walker landers. And the cargo shuttle is neat too. It's got the Droid Army lander wings kind of, so maybe it's a nod to TPM. Hopefully they make both shuttles and then an improved U-wing. I can't believe they made it only seat one figure. :{

Obama needs to watch out. If he and the libs really think the Russians messed with the election, what's to stop them from having assassins in America?

I hope they continue to lie their asses off though. Just means more and more people will start to see the truth.

I didn't notice Chop! I'll have to watch it again to find that easter egg.

I think the Vader suit looks just like the ANH one, so that was cool.

Tarkin could have been played by Bill Nighy or the guy who played Tywin Lannister and they wouldn't have had to do the CGI.

Leia would be harder to do with a double though, so I'm glad they chose CGI for her.

Oh, and now that I think about it, Saw's last scene on Jedha is a reference/rip off of Chewie's death on Serpindal in Vector Prime. The ship taking off and leaving him behind while the planet is being assaulted by a "moon". Totally from Vector Prime though.

And I think this article did a good job of explaining the EU references/rip offs:

https://www.fimfiction.net/group/1460/star-wars/thread/266747/rogue-one-born-from-the-expanded-universe

I know it's weird to call them rip offs from your side, but to me they're rip offs because they aren't paying the authors who came up with those ideas in the first place.

I'm going ot try and find the film online to get screen captures for some memes and to show what I meant about them looking like ISIS in that scene.

One capture i want is of Jyn watching the holotape of her dad. It kind of looked like someone trying not to laugh, so out of context it could make some great Felicity memes. :{D

Yeah, they did a great job with the Vader suit, the way his inner robes are on both sides of his chest armor. That's how the new black series fig will be.

Everytime the libs lie about Russia, more people like Russia. Just like Leia said slightly edited, "the more you tighten your grip Obama, the more the American people will slip through your fingers".

Cool. I still wish they'd only make one Vader for like the first 10-12 waves though. So they can focus on other characters like Sabine and the Spectres.

I hope Russia is proven to be innocent and the MSM is disbanded until we can get some honest journalists.

lol Right? Obama wishes he was a sith. But he's barely a neophyte compared to the Emperor or Vader.

Hey where did they say Chopper was? I found an Italian version of the film and want to look for him. And it's weird hearing Italian Vader. X{D

Chopper is on the left side of the guy who runs outside to tell Mon Mothma that they went to Scarif. He's on the move and you can hear him talking too.

YES!!!

Thanks for telling me Sith. I found him!

I think that means that the Spectres are going to Yavin 4 soon. Like maybe the end of this season or the next.

That's the Ghost, Chop, AND General Syndulla! So cool!

I'm so glad they included Rebels in R1. :{D

No problem. And it's cool that they show him as if he's headed to the Ghost off camera to tell them to go to Scarif and then we see the Ghost there at the battle.

Right? Do you think all the Spectres are on board the Ghost? Or spread out since the Phantom II isn't docked?

And do you think AT-ACT's, TIE Strikers, Shoretroopers, or Deathtroopers will show up in Rebels now?

I really wish Rebels was on tomorrow night with an episode that tied into R1. :{

Yeah it's going to be a long wait for the next episode. At least it's a two-parter.

I think TIE strikers may make it onto the show.

Tough to say what they're planning. Hopefully the Phantom wasn't down on the surface after the death star attack. I wonder if they didn't show the crew because they plan on killing off a member or two.

On a side note, remember when Mon Mothma spoke to Bail in RO, I know he was talking about Obi, but I could've sworn I heard him say "I'd trust HER with my life", which made me think he was referring to Ahsoka and I got really excited and started thinking they were gonna show her at the end but since they didn't I don't know. Did you hear the line as "her" as well? Maybe you can check it out on your Italian version if it has subtitles?

I hope they're on Yavin 4 for longer than two episodes. Like maybe they use that base for a season.

The Striker didn't get as much screentime as I thought it was going to. And I hope they make the one that carried the Death Troopers too. I'm gonna get three of the Strikers when I get a chance. And I hope they redo the X and Y wings too.

I hope they don't kill off any of the Spectres. One, it's a kid's show and I don't think they should be that dark, unless they do a show for teens later on. But I can see them killing Kanan off like Obi wan. Force ghost Kanan would guide Ezra. I would hate it if they went that route since it's that same mirroring the OT/EU thing that I don't like.

I don't remember what Bail said to Mothma about Obi. But the thing about I'd trust... is about Leia I think.

And the Italian version I saw only had subtitles for the aliens helping Saw. I'd post a link here, but I don't know if that violates the site rules or not.

I can try rewatching that part and see if the Italian dialogue is clear enough to use Google Translate on. The audio was okay, but the language is spoken fast.

It's probably Leia though. Like how on Rebels they've already done some missions like getting the Hammerhead cruisers. Bail must think highly of her since she's Padme's daughter and has Anakin's strengths as well.

After watching the second time I got the ROTJ reference on Scariff. I didn't even think about the Endor bunker the first time I saw it.

And I know they did a shield in ESB at Hoth, but the planet shield HAS to be more a nod to Spaceballs. X{D

Mon Mothma starts the conversation asking about his jedi friend. Both times I've seen it sounds like he says "her". I'm going to see it again tomorrow.

It was cool how they killed off "red 5" to leave it vacant for Luke and how he was basically Porkins. Must have been his brother.

I wonder if any ships from Rogue One are going to be in 6" scale since those two Hasbro dudes said they're making more 6" scale ships. Wouldn't it be amazing to not only get a Ghost but that it's 6"?
It seems like they intend to make all the characters in 6" so maybe there's a chance. If it's only one 6" ship for 2017 they'd probably take the safer approach and go with something more well known and do an X-wing though.

I'm not being condescending and rude. I'm being straightforward.

And you did avoid the question.

And how the hell can you see so clearly the shit the media is doing to Trump, and then with, I assume a straight face, and say you can't see how liberal Hollywood made the Rebels look like ISIS fighting the US?

I mean honestly? You talk about the conspiracies within the media, but then block it out of being in Disney Star wars films?

You even admit there's a liberal agenda in Hollywood. There's all kinds of proof that the writers of Rogue One are 99% Hillary supporters and bitched about Trump with all the other progressive liberals.

You try to hold Socrates responisble in hypocritical situations here on Imgflip, why not be consistent and admit that Disney is raping Star wars and pushing their liberal agenda?

I mean, you believe PizzaGate, right? Do you really think that shit doesn't tie into the pedophile conspiracies that already existed about Disney?

Think about how their first two Star wars films are geared mainly towards young girls? Be real with this Sith.

I can still enjoy Star wars while Mickey's raping it though. That's why I said I mostly liked it. And that it's way better than TFA. I'm not trying to ruin anything for you. And if I'm right doesn't mean the movie can't be enjoyable.

The shit just has to be acknowledged for the positive change to occur. That's Trump does. Talks about it first, then tries to get it done.

I'm just calmly talking to you. If I capslock a word or words it's only for emphasis, not rage. You know, cannabis and all. :{D

You've called me a liar and implied I wasn't a patriot, that's pretty condescending and rude. For the third time, I DIDN'T SEE the agenda that you claim to see with Rogue One OR TFA. All I see is STAR WARS MOVIES.

No shit there's a liberal agenda in Hollywood and the communist Chinese have taken over like Alex Jones says.

George Lucas is a patriot. HE is the one who created the story of rebels fighting an empire. The rebels used "terrorist tactics" in the OT too. That's what rebels do. That's how they fight.

You keep trying to push your narrative on me and act like it's fact when it isn't. Nor have you provided anything to prove your claims other than your own paranoia. Yes Disney is compromised, but I didn't see Rogue One as a pro-ISIS or anti-US propaganda piece.

Socrates is a liberal pussy that wants Trump to be killed. He's irrelevant.

I didn't call you a liar, that's YOUR own paranoia there Sith.

I also never implied you weren't a patriot. Again, YOUR paranoia.

You can't even answer simple questions about Star wars without turning on people you were just being friendly with hours ago.

So don't talk to me about "paranoia" and condescension. It looks like total bullshit to anyone that would bother to read this.

You're just mad that the liberals are f**king Star wars up and can't admit it. That's really weird.

No one is saying that the two Disney Star wars films ARE propaganda but you Sith. I'm saying there's obvious propaganda in it, JUST LIKE IN THE MEDIA.

There's literally no way I'll believe you that you can pick apart media conspiracies, but not in film.

This response you've had is crazy Sith.

Do you believe Pizza Gate? The Voting fraud conspiracy? The media bias in favor of Hillary?

Oh but the obvious way Rogue One made the Rebels look like Arab terrorists(Muslim "freedom fighters") fighting the American army in hovertanks is crazy.

Right dude. Right.

I'm glad you'd treat friends like shit over a kid's movie Sith. :{

"I think you saw the "political" angles I mentioned, but just won't say because you liked the film so much. And that's cool.

But that shit is offensive AF to patriots like me."

You called me a liar and implied I wasn't as much of a patriot as you.

I didn't have a problem talking to you about your complaints of RO until you made your passive aggressive comments.

And you're STILL trying to push your paranoid narrative on me and trying to compare the movie to MSM. Hillary's campaign controlled the media. Hillary's campaign didn't make Rogue One. Just stop.

"So you can see the political agendas in the media, but not in film?"

I've answered your question FOUR times now. I did not see a liberal/pro-ISIS/anti-Trump political agenda in ROGUE ONE.

The only person being an immature asshole here is you.

No Sith, YOU THINK I DID. Period.

That's all on your side of this.

And I feel like you saw my argument with Natalie Vance and are trying to repeat back to me the stuff I said to her.

I told her she was being passive aggressive to me and implying shit and now you're trying to throw that back in my face.

They even f**king say Hillary's phrase in the film dude. "I'm with her". And you're trying so hard to deny the obvious liberal agenda in the film is super weird dude.

It's really inconsistent of you.

And no Sith, don't even try that.

You're the immature one here.

I was the one being cordial with you and you turned on me faster than a Hillary supporter. :{

How was I not being cordial? This is my initial reply to your take:

"I didn't get the political metaphors that you did that's cool if that's your take."

Then in your reply, you said:

"I think you saw the "political" angles I mentioned, but just won't say because you liked the film so much. And that's cool.

But that shit is offensive AF to patriots like me."

I said I didn't see it and you said you think I did see it, that's saying I was lying, and the implication that you are a better patriot than me is obvious.

You were totally cordial up until you thought I said you weren't a patriot or as patriotic as me. After that, you weren't cordial.

And no, it isn't rude AF to think that you don't want to admit things about Star wars because you want to enjoy it.

I know that feeling. I just want to be able to enjoy Star wars without the damn liberals raping it before my eyes, but I can't because they totally are and it infuriates me.

But I can't ignore it or say it's not there when it's as blatant as it is.

Heck, maybe once you see it again you'll see what I meant.

And to clarify, I don't mean the whole film. Either of them. I'm saying they do have parts that have their liberal agenda/propaganda laced in them.

And I'm not saying you're lying or a liar by saying you saw something you won't admit to. I'm saying you don't want to admit something. It's different. I really don't mean it like saying you're a liar or anything like that.

And I can see from your angle how it can LOOK like that. I can admit that easily.

I still think you see what I mean about the Rebels looking like Arab freedom fighters/terrorists in that scene on Jedha/Scariff(The city block scenes with the hover tank and market). It's obvious to me.

Sith, either way, I really wasn't saying anything about your level of patriotism or calling you a liar like you think. I'm just shocked that you can't see something I see as so obvious.

And if you could hear me talking when I said it, you would totally understand and it wouldn't look the way it did to you.

I'm sorry for getting into this argument with you and making you think I said something I didn't.

And I'm sorry for trying to force you to see something I think is obvious.

I'm really into Star wars, like you, and I'm very patriotic, like you. So of course this kind of conversation can get hectic. :{

It's cool no worries.

To me the film was just showing the grey area of war and how you can become compromised fighting against evil, especially with Saw's group of extremists.

I get the terrorist aspect that you're talking about but I don't see it as a pro-isis message or the empire/US angle that you do. To me it was like the DS9 story of the Bajoran rebels fighting the Cardassian occupation.

Right. And I'm not saying the movie's message is pro ISIS, I'm just saying that scene made the Rebels look like ISIS.

It's a subliminal image that the liberals in Disney put in there.

lol I remember those DS9 episodes too. Funny how those DS9 episodes were before 9/11.

Did you hear Obama talking shit about Russia today? Putin told him show me the evidence or stop talking about it. X{D

Lol yeah, I heard some of it on infowars. They really need to give up with the Russian stuff. Funny how he can talk shit on Russia but not even say radical Islam. Isn't his "logic" that he doesn't want to "incite violence against Muslims", well it seems to me like he's inciting violence against Russians and Russian immigrants in the US. And Pelosi's daughter has the nerve to say Alex Jones is inciting violence against her mom.

Just saw Rogue again. Man I love that Vader scene at the end. The way he comes out of the darkness and the way he was swinging his lightsaber and using the force was so epic and perfectly done.

I heard there was a Chopper sighting too and I saw him at the Yavin base.

If you didn't mean to imply that you're a better patriot than me then I'll take you on your word. But telling me you think I DID see a political agenda when I told you I didn't is rude AF.

You imply I'm not a patriot for liking TFA and RO, yet you are good buds with socrates, someone that hates Trump and wants him to be killed. I don't think a real patriot would be friends with someone like socrates.

You better believe that if they steal the presidency from Trump that I'll be on the front lines taking our country back. I don't care if this puts me on a black list. So don't tell me I'M not a patriot.

Hey Sith, haven't seen any new memes from you or heard from you in a few days. Hope everything is good on your end.

And I hope you were able to get that Sabine.

Have you rewatched R1 again yet? I noticed that Red and Gold leaders are cgi versions of the ANH actors and the cockpit scenes they were in. That's pretty cool for them to do.

And have you heard anything about whether or not Rebels will have a tie in episode? :{D

Thanks, just taking a little break. Haven't got Sabine yet. I'll probably go on a few more store runs first.

Yeah I've it 3 times. The second time was when I saw Chopper and told you about that. I noticed Red and Gold leaders on my first view. It was really awesome they did that and I really felt like I was watching a movie that came out before ep4. I didn't notice anything new on my 3rd view, except I may have seen the Ghost on Yavin on one of the wide shots. I'll look for it again on my 4th view.

Trump just passed 270!

The stores should be cheaper too. Hope you find her.

Yeah the Red/Gold leaders was the first time for me too. I could totally tell that they used the old footage and voices. It was so cool!

That would be cool to see the Ghost landed there on Yavin too. I hope it is the Ghost. I can't wait to see the deleted scenes.

And yeah, Trump is PREZ! woot! Suck on that college liberals! X{D

There are some really great parts.

But to me, it was another travesty.

And I thought I was actually going to like this one.

Maybe the Solo film or the Fett film will satisfy my Sw tooth? I mean, it's at least going to satisfy my Emilia Clarke tooth. :{

Did you like the end? That ending had me in awe, despite being down about what happened to the characters. Total jaw dropping moment.

Leia? It was neat. Same with Tarkin.

A New Hope is about Luke though, so I hope, X{D, that they meant him somehow with her line about Hope.

I hated how the Rebels look like ISIS fighting the US(Empire). That really pisses me off.

The Rebels are the Founding Fathers fighting a revolution. Not terrorists.

The Empire are a fascist government. The Nazis. BUT, they also represented the British Empire during the Revolution.

Disney is so f**king liberal. They think America and Trump are the enemies.

Krennec gave me a total Trump vibe too. The cape is something a college liberal would assume Trump would wear.

F**k man, they probably see him as Vader too. They hate the dynasty part of SW. And Trump is all about some dynasty.

But don't get me wrong, I think it's way better than TFA.

The ships and aliens were great. The U-Wing has grown on me. It's kind of like the F-14 jet mixed with a Blackhawk Helicopter. TIE Striker is basically the TIE Phantom too.

And I liked the Death Star scenes.

I had actually read spoilers so I was prepared for what was going to happen. And I'm glad my ticket was free.

The "General Syndulla" part is still getting me. At least I think that's what was said. :{D

Yeah, just the whole ending with Vader and the Tantive IV taking off. I was staring in awe with my jaw dropped at Vader.

The Leia line about hope is a set up to her recording the message to Obi telling him he's their only hope to me.

I didn't get the political metaphors that you did that's cool if that's your take. I just didn't get that vibe.

Seeing Tarking and Leia like that was eerie how realistic they looked. It feels like ILM has really revolutionized the industry once again. I felt like I was watching a movie that came out before Ep 4.

I didn't catch the Syndulla line. Would've been great to see Rebels characters but oh well. I guess Jedha is one of the systems the cantina guy had the death sentence on. Man that guy is pissed at everyone lol.

Did you catch the Imax 3D version? The space battle was epic watching from the front row.

C'mon Leia! Put those titties into it! X{D

1g2js7.jpg (click to show)

I don't like 3d or imax. I like regular screens. The space scenes were still stellar though.

I didn't like the AT-ACT's though. I thought it was retarded that they used them on a tropical planet. It looked great, but didn't make sense. And in some scenes there's just this big hole in the side of them just wide open. That's tactically stupid. The AT's soft innerbelly is exposed.

I think it as on Yavin and it as over a comm. "General Syndulla, please report." Or something like that. I'd have to watch it again. Once it's online I'm going to check it out again.

The Evazan and Ponda Baba thing as neat, but felt forced. Still neat though. I like the references like that.

I don't really see the difference in the CGI used in this compared to Avatar in 2009. I had thought that's how they'd do Han in TFA too. Like Neytiri.

I think you saw the "political" angles I mentioned, but just won't say because you liked the film so much. And that's cool.

But that shit is offensive AF to patriots like me. No joke. I'm tired of seeing that same anti American/anti-Trump shit in Hollywood and the media. And ESPECIALLY in my Star wars.

A New Hope is called that because of Luke though. So even the line about Obi being the "only hope" is about Luke indirectly. Obi knows he has to train him.

I don't know what it is, but Vader seemed short. I think it's the helmet somehow. It was neat seeing all the OT characters, tech, and aliens though.

And I hope they decide to do a Rebels movie now. I bet that would be great. :{D

No...I wouldn't say what I did if I did see the political metaphor. You basically just called me a liar, which isn't cool. If I say I didn't see a political angle, then I didn't see a political angle. It should be apparent by now that I speak my mind. I think you're looking for a political angle when there isn't one as a reason not to like it. I didn't see the film portray the rebels as anything BUT the good guys, nor that the empire were a metaphor for US troops. I see zero connection between Trump and Krennic. That sounds really paranoid dude.

Nothing offended ME as a patriot. It kinda seemed like you were trying to say I'm not a patriot because I don't agree with you which isn't cool. I've lost tons of friends this past year for being a patriot and supporting Trump.

And I KNOW the new hope is Luke, but obviously she says that because it was 10 minutes before she programmed her message to Obi-Wan telling him he's their only hope.

So you can see the political agendas in the media, but not in film? :{

All I saw was a Star Wars film with the good guy rebels fighting the evil empire.

Avoiding the question is an answer too.

Do you see in the OT that Lucas made the Rebels like the colonial Americans mixed with Spanish revolutionaries and the Empire as the British mixed with Nazis? :{

Annnd now you're saying I avoided your question. Not sure why you're being condescending and rude.

Obviously there is a liberal agenda in Hollywood. I'm telling you that I all saw was a Star Wars movie.

Uh yeah, even people that don't know anything about SW know the empire is an allegory for the nazis. The rebels are freedom fighters in Rogue One, just like they've always been. Nothing changed with tactics or strategies.

Just saw this on Rebelscum, thought you might be interested: http://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/star-wars-the-black-series-sabine-wren-action-figure/6000196122158

It's a link to a Canadian walmart site that sells the Sabine for $29.92. And she's in stock. They should ship to the US too. And if you get $50 worth, the shipping's free. :{D

Cool, thanks for the link.

Yeah, the U-wing is pretty cool. The cockpit reminds me of the firefly ship. The toy is trash.

The 3.75 line is really in dire straights. Look at this Jyn figure:

1g5qb9.jpg (click to show)

The accessory is as big as her! And the accessory combined with the "missile" is more plastic than the actual figure. So did I pay $5 for the accessory and $3 for the figure?? Not to mention the head sculpt is terribly basic.

The steroid figs had better head sculpts. Oh and Toy Galaxy did a video about that, he said they made them like that because there was a popular superhero line and Kenner thought they had to make SW characters look like superheros to compete because they didn't have faith in SW just by itself. Bunch of morons. They were my introduction into action figs so I didn't think twice about the look. I guess I just thought that's what action figures looked like. They're so weird now.

What features did they add to the TFA Falcon? I assumed it was just the 90s version.

Hope it helps. That's the cheapest I've seen her online so far.

The U-wing is like Serenity in a way. I didn't notice that before. And yeah, what were they thinking not having a cargo hold for the other figures to stand/sit in?!? How are kids supposed to recreate the scene when the space monkey is firing at the AT-ACT's?(an FMJ reference I'm sure)

Yeah that Jyn figure looks more like a random background character than the lead of the film. And those shitty missile launchers are a waste of money for us and kids don't even really enjoy them. Plus, they're a choking hazard and can hurt a kid's eye. lol wtf Hasbro?

Yeah, at least the 90's figs had good sculpts.

That's how I thought of it as a kid, they're "action" figures so they need to look pumped and full of action. And that had to be code for human growth hormones.

The TFA Falcon opens up in a weird way and barely has an interior. Plus it has all these hidden nerf missile launchers all over it in places where the Falcon doesn't have weapons.

They got the placement of on of the bunks right, but it's not the bunk they use in the film so it's retarded. They basically put the forward cargo hold in the engine room. Here's a link: http://www.rebelscum.com/millennium-falcon-the-force-awakens-hasbro.asp

I mean, kudos on them for including 3 figures and I guess trying. But they made the BMF a few years back and should have retooled that instead! :{O
