Hasbro dropped a really nice looking Jango Fett today!  To bad he's one of those boxed "deluxe" figures though, I'm not a fan of those at all.....    Hasbro would have got me to buy two of these if they were on cardbacks.

Does this new 2024 TVC Deluxe Jango Fett have dumbbell hips or the lousy twist hips that the latest ROTJ Boba Fett has? I don't trust their Premium Design in their product description.

His hips is what will determine if I get him or not. Old hips, bad. New hips, good.

so I'm not sure if I like the latest Aayla Secura head (VC 217) anybody know of any previous heads which may be better that would match close enough and fit on the head (also a ball peg)?

Can't say I disagree with you there.   Just when I convince myself that it's ok to pay $15-17 for a single carded 3 3/4" figure, here come the $25-30 3 3/4" figures.   

I feel like Hasbro is fighting the slow death of the action figure industry in the wrong manner.

What makes that Jango even worse is that a few years ago, we would have gotten those extras for the price of a regular figure.  It's a sad excuse for a deluxe figure, but I've felt that way about pretty much all of them lately.

Which Revan? Hera and Pre dropped into mine, and single card Revan said January so I hit ship. If he drops in there after I hit ship, that'll be like the 4th time this year I let stuff pile up in there, hit ship cause nothing is slated for another month away, and then something else drops the day after. And that would suck, cause Revan would be sitting there for a bit.

Yeah, regular single-card Revan.  And it's almost a guarantee BBTS drops stuff the day after one ships.  I can remember a single time my PoL went empty for a week after shipping; and I was astonished by my lucky timing.  The real fun is trying to guess what the day-after drop item is gonna be, lol.

He should have the same barbell hips that Pre Vizla, the Death Watch Trooper, Death Watch Airborne Trooper, and the Super Commando Captain have.

Revan, Hera, and Chopper all hit my POL. I need to call BBTS for another extension I think lol, I especially do not want to miss out on Revan, my favourite Legends character, and characters to fill out my Ghost next year.

As I figured, Revan hit my PoL after I shipped all the other stuff. Oh well. I ordered a few of them cause it's Revan, two for dad (so he can keep one in), and one for me. So I just shipped those as well. Luckily shipping is holding strong at $4, and I don't mind waiting for them a few days longer. Plus he keeps telling me to ship my PoL every time we get like 3 or 4 things in there instead of more cause he doesn't want another situation like Dorkside happening and paying for stuff and never getting it. I don't think BBTS would ever go down like that, but I never thought Dorkside would either so...

I shipped Revan, Chopper, Hera, and a few non tvc related items in my POL. I am so excited to start getting characters who interact with the Ghost, and especially ready for Revan. I have been playing Galaxy of Heroes, and been getting all my KOTOR guys to high levels to unlock Darth Revan, and it is making me want to replay KOTOR so I may start that over the break. I hope my Revan figure comes in soon though because I am excited and in a KOTOR mood.

Revan is also in Star Wars The Old Republic MMO that is free with restrictions
