Been @ Celebration today, loads of stuff announced/shown by Hasbro.
They have a mock up of the Mandalorian N-1, announced the next HasLab will be in the vintage Collection line (cue lots of shouts of ‘The Ghost’, but they would not be drawn on what it will be) & gave away two TVC Sail Barges.
Good panel all around.
Also visited the Jazzwares stand, which produce my latest version of crack - the micro galaxy squadron. Lots of good info, including that distribution in the UK should get better, & they also had some AT-ATs ti play with - those look fantastic.
Going to be an expensive year for ship buying I think

My hat's off to you, JB - it took three guys to build this model (I think it's the same model?)

The model itself is not overly complicated. I think they used three guys because they HAD three guys!

Cute. I already have a Stan doll, so I have resisted other iterations, but that one. . . (Among the weirder bits of my life is having dolls and action figures of people I actually know/knew.)

I mentioned to my son that I had been looking for a Stan POP and couldn’t make up my mind on one. As much as I like Funko, Stan’s happy energy comes through better here. The kids did good!

I imagine this has been posted here a few times, but I just saw it the other day for the first time.

Just in case no one has seen, Master Replicas have been selling loads of the old Eaglemoss stock. Some they have lots of, & these are being released on set dates.
Others, they only have around 100 of. These are being released as flash drops that sell out in minutes.
Messages from the company indicate that stock inventory is a bit of a mess, with things often not being what they are labelled as, hence the different release policies.

Bought the LEGO kit of the 1966 Batcave. Some cool stuff, but overall underwhelming. I’m definitely going to have to find a way to customize the rocky walls of the cave. One big disappointment: on the tiny figure of the Joker they have, yes, included Cesare Romero’s mustache. Why do so many toy companies not seem to understand how Hollywood works?

Here is my newest addition and long time "grail" along side one of my obsession toy from my childhood, the Marx Gabriel Lone Ranger.
I loved Superman as a kid because of the comics... then I loved him because of Christopher Reeve... but I really became a Super-fan when John Byrne started working on the book!!
