[Newbieguy]

[CrovaxNL]

They'll probably only make 500 of these and they'll skyrocket in price lol

Is there an exclusive version that comes with matching pot holders and apron?

I don't think I've ever seen a more negative reaction to a figure. Especially on the HT facebook page. They know how much this thing is loathed. Do they care? Only if it doesn't sell of course.

I really don't get all the hate this is getting.

A toy company makes a toy you don't want to buy. Move along...

Move along

That trooper will have to be careful cleaning his armor, as I don't believe it's dishwasher safe.

Also, I don't see this as a cash grab... I don't think HT expects to make a killing, again, they likely did it because they could and it was fun. You want it, great! You don't... then don't.

The AT-AT kills me.

You clearly like troopers with China patterned Depens on more than some of us.

I simply don't understand the extreme negative reaction this has generated from some.

I don't understand how someone doesn't understand the negative reaction. It's a combination of looking stupid and being a blatantly obvious low effort cash grab. I would imagine that a lot of people dislike both of those things.

Some people collect fine china. That's fine. Some people like collecting Star Wars figures. That's great. The overlap of the two has to be rare.

I'll bet this releases before TFA Luke. Possibly even Han and Chewie.

I can see that point but I also feel most fan merchandising is a combination of inaccuracies and low effort cash grabs.

I actually really enjoy the artistic absurdity of it... as you stated, that razor-slim demographic of fine china collectors & Star Wars collectors. That's one funny venn diagram that Hot Toys is marketing to.

I thought this was a joke at first. I guess it is in some way...
