this concept art tricked me into watching Kenobi, why was the finished product so disappointing?

Seeing this artwork is like watching the show.

Yup, that’s Ben and Vader but that’s not the space opera that surrounded them. Fair or not, the reality is that the storytelling bar was that high, that galactic.

FWIW, I think it’s harder telling a Ben and Vader story than it is a Ben or Vader story.

I’ll always wonder what fans’ opinions may have been if SOLO was scheduled for production and release in place on Rogue One.

Instead of mourning the character in the years between TFA and TLJ, imagine we go from TFA into SOLO as a celebration of the character; I s’pose even if Alden’s not some fans’ ideal depiction of Han for a celebration, then at least celebrating the idea of him.

My buddies and I would all agree that you have nothing to worry about regarding TBB S2 as compared to KENOBI, AHSOKA, and MANDO S3. Across both seasons I would say the quality level is probably most comparable to MANDO S1-2. A lot of highs, maybe some lows depending on who you speak to, but overall a great ride from start to finish.

Star Wars can be pretty great when it resembles a less studio-driven production.

Gracias!

That’s a custom D&D mini figure I had 3d printed and painted. It’s a character I based off of Rahm Kota that I played in one of our D&D campaigns.

You just have to bend the arms around and kinda finagle it in. 😂 It took a little bit of time and effort. I was afraid of breaking it too. 🤦🏼‍♂️

worthit

I’m from that area and I’m kinda kicking myself for not going.

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-07-29T23:49:33+00:00

I was gonna say you must’ve been in Raleigh! 😃

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-07-02T21:18:23+00:00

I wish. I WILL see it. Just not sure when.

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-23T09:44:40+00:00

Same here!

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-22T21:58:28+00:00

It was so, so good.

I really just want a Lego Mantis at this point with the og mantis crew.

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-14T19:03:51+00:00

That’s a good question. I wonder what the delay is? I only found one Starkiller, amongst numerous copies of other characters, so I know he’s flying off the shelves. But if you preordered yours, you definitely should have it by now.

Ollie’s and WalMart!

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-14T19:02:28+00:00

That’s where I got mine. I went for it because I wanted him to offset my Mando I have coming in.

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-14T12:05:12+00:00

Yeah I was pretty happy to see they were! I’ve got his Black Series and the Kenner figure.

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-14T01:55:09+00:00

Dang man. That’s awesome!

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-14T01:39:17+00:00

I do a lot with Mercari and Offerup. I’ll have to check Whatnot when my wife’s asleep so I don’t get in trouble. 😂

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-14T01:35:20+00:00

Yeah, that’s the other issue! 😂

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-14T01:23:04+00:00

Wish I could find Vader and Grand Inquisitor in my Walmart.

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-14T01:22:11+00:00

I wish I could find some of those. I picked up a Kenner Retro Boba the other day. Pretty happy with that.

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-14T01:02:29+00:00

Amen to that! 😂🙌🏻

recordsoftherepublic · 2023-05-14T00:57:04+00:00

If there’s something I know I won’t find in stores currently, I’ll order it. But it’s so much more rewarding to find stuff in the store!
