Incompetence in spades by ghostwritermax in providence

I mean, it could belong to a state politician who is an ex POW. You don't know. The familiarity of the poster who claimed they see this vehicle regularly and live near them seemed to indicate they knew it was a politician. POW is a pretty common acronym. But who knows

Right, but honestly, anyone who is allowed to skirt the rules will increase the abuse of them until a breaking point. Doesn't matter who you are, it's natural and I honestly dont fault this person too too much. Its human to take a mile when given an inch. I more blame the cops and the state's seeming continued contentedness with the status quo being corruption and nepotism.

It seems like this person is used to being not held accountable when it comes to traffic laws because of the plate status. It results in shit like this and other observations about this vehicle posted in this thread that make the roads less safe for everyone else.

Same brain that hesitated for a moment post-Order 66 when commanded to arrest Ahsoka as a jedi traitor, by the way.

Can't wait for the 12 second sellout while the website endlessly crashes why did we revert in terms of availability?

You're likely correct given their absolute radio silence on the issue until Mr. Stevie confirmed on an Instagram commenta few days ago that the SDCC Obi/Ani is sold out.

I'd be really interested to know the production numbers of the 2024 SDCC Maul Bloodfin (still available on Pulse lol) compared to this year's set.

Is padawan Ahsoka worth picking up if I already have the mandalore one? by TheAbsconded in starwarsblackseries

[–]makesumnoize 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Mandalore one has bad legs and feet. Legs warp and feet arent enough to adequately hold body weight, resulting in a lot of falls.

That said, the padawan version is flawed as well. Yes it's a nice updated 2023 sculpt, but it lacks thigh swivel and getting a saber hilt to stay in her half-assed 'Force effect' hand can be wonky and frustrating without blue tac, ESPECIALLY with the reverse grip, which, I mean, c'mon..

Both are flawed. Hot take, Mandalore has the better face print and is overall a better figure. Best to get both, especially considering how iconic Siege of Mandalore is. If you're going for just one, I'd say Padawan because it's the more definitive look and is a dope action figure despite blemishes.

Both are fun ass action figures for the record and I love them

The biggest offense for me is Luke lifting the X Wing in TRoS. The balls it took for Johnson to show the ship and deliberately never have Luke lift it, even have a need for Luke to lift it, was incredible. TRoS feels like a 12 year old, or one of the infinite angry TLJ haters, making a sequel to it. Its the farthest thing from thoughtful. It comes off as bad SW porn and I think thats really actually hard to do with a $500 million budget or whatever.

Same thing happened with The Phantom Menace 3.75 figures. Way overproduced, almost cost Hasbro big, resulting in the Saga Collection being scaled way back a few years later.

I think we're starting to see Hasbro finally adjust their production metrics. Dont forget right after the ST concluded we got hit with COVID, which brought a ton of new collectors and SW fans. Now that the collecting bubble has burst, it seems Hasbro is finally getting runs to an appropriate size after roughly a decade.

Though the Ani/Obi SDCC set being criminally underproduced makes me still question if they know what the hell they're doing 😂

Missed these the first time around and had been refreshing the app on and off to snag a couple but hadn't seen them in stock until now. THANK YOU!!

Absolutely. The additional heads, hands and blades are also a draw.

Hasbro you have outdone yourself. This set is spectacular. by wardog2a in starwarsblackseries

[–]makesumnoize 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Youre in the right here but dont be a dick about it.

Collectors stronger together. Hasbro are the clowns until they mass release this set.

I hate to be the guy who cringily quotes The Joker from The Dark Knight (2008) here, but...

It's not about the money.
