Pulse charged me for Din's N-1 Starfighter and Target shipped the Luke/Grogu 2PK.

I kinda still want that N-1, but it hasn't come back on Amazon. Hoping that once it's released, I can snag one in stock. Better yet, I'd like to wait for a lower price as the holidays approach.

@normdapito Check Targets website for a local Store carrying it and you can use the $25 off over $100 App Coupon.

oh my god, 131.99?? I think I gotta wait for a deeper discount than $25. That doesn’t even bring it under 100!

@schizm I'm posting the image the way I used to on the old forum. If I don't use the IMG tag, it just turns into a link. But before, it never used to add those visible tags. Whats the best way to post images on this forum?

You should just be able to paste the image URL into the text box and it'll load in. I looked at your post and I noticed it ends with .jpg

If I follow your pic back to Imgur I get a direct link that ends with .jpeg so try grabbing that.

Pasting it here gets me this: 

You might like to try copy-pasting the link into a text box yourself to see how it should behave.

I've started using the "BBCode" URL from Imgur rather than the "Direct Link" URL that I used on the old forum because the "Direct Link" URL no longer "pops" out to a larger image the way it used to. The "BBCode" does pop out, which I want, but for whatever reason the forum shows the [img] tag as visible, which is weird.

If it's a choice of seeing the [img] tag but having the image "pop" out versus no [img] tag and no "pop" out, just ignore the [img] tag, folks.

So this will never happen, but I was watching ROTS and wouldn't it be cool to get a senate chamber playset? It could have a few of the playforms, but also you could remove some and have line one of the platforms move around, for the battle Sheev and Yoda had. Then you could either use it for their fight or have a bunch of senators just chilling in there. I get it would be too big, from an 18 year old movie, and tbh not the most exciting part, but I would love it.

Just received Luke/Grogu training set from BoBF(?) whatever it is, I think I'm just gonna return it. I've got enough of both characters in 1:18 scale.

@eiczerofour Think they produced one platform for the 30th Anniversary line back in 2007. I would be down for it, I'd even start backtracking to collect all the senators. But I think there's more demand for a updated Jedi Council.

@normdapito I might be the exact opposite. I watched this review and now want to pick it up even more. It's the best articulated 3.75 Luke yet.

I opened the N-1 last night and I'm whelmed. I hate that the Mando fig is carded - is there a regular release version with the cloth cape?

The cheap, swirly plastic really grates the visual of this ship - the painted metal pieces look so much better. The tail looks like a piece from an entirely different release, and I can't seem to get the tail back off safely to stow the extra prop piece. And there's only one engine cover, not two for either side?

Grogu in his cockpit is very cute. Not providing an alt droid head is lame. For this price, not including that piece and actually painting the ship is not okay.

I was looking forward to this, but now that I have it... I kinda want to return it.

@schizm The other two soft good caped Mando's came with the Razor Crest and in the Rescue set. Most likely next years pipelined Season 3 Mando with have a soft goods cape as well.

I think the swirly plastic of the back half actually recreates the unpainted finish we see on screen decently. The front is the Chrome portion of the ship and the main body is worn down with only a little yellow paint left.

I'm guessing they opted to include the 2nd display stand and just sell R5-D4 separately for those that might want multiples of the droid.

@reefer-shark I'm down for any TVC figure utilizing the new bar bell hips and rocker ankles. The fact it's Luke Skywalker this time is icing.

My dad got Sabine today. I was checking it out, and her Saber doesn't have those little doodads on the blade like the old ones, like I thought I observed when I saw pics. Wonder why they did away with those. Granted it looks better, but it's just odd. They've been using those blades since AotC. Why change them now?
