S.H. Figuarts Star Wars

[crisis]

it's funny how Disney decided to cut nearly all of the EU material out of canonicity, considering that no matter what new ideas they come up with, it will most likely have been inspired from an EU idea first (such as Han & Leia's kid turning to the darkside.. that's nothing new. LOL). I understand their reasoning, but it doesn't really matter, because the only canon that truly matters is the canon in your mind. to some people Darth Maul died in Episode I, others believe Boba Fett escaped the Sarlaac Pit, who am I to tell them otherwise? Believe whatever ya want, life is short lol

@Silrian interesting about the Tarkin/Snoke connection. However I thought it was confirmed that Snoke is very, VERY old. They said that he was around to see the fall of the Republic, the rise of the Empire, etc.

[Silrian]

Uh, Crisis, he WAS around to see that. He befriends Anakin in clone wars as they agree on more ruthless war tactics. Hes already high ranking there.( Guess my spoiler tag is now redundant. ) If the theory turns out to be true (and again lookp up the screenrant article, theres an amazing bunh of clues to it.) Snoke would be at least a 100. May not be very old for sw chars though. But especially snokes ialogue in the novel fits the old geezer so well. "Vader had one error of judgement in an otherwise exemplary life." It would actually also make sense that han speaks of snoke as though he knows him. Psychologically knows him.

@Gasper 7 films + cw nd rebels are canon. That simple. What crisis said though, any eu material is explicitely open to be reincluded as canon in any way. Kylo is indeed an obvious example.

They cant see that cause youve been ignored. Also lol at you being banned from everywhere... Think the problem might be you

I'm not going to hold my tongue on this any more.

Weakling is actually a serial troll from the ThreeA forums, Kidrobot forums and, of course, 4chan /toy/ known as 'VinceJustVince' or 'Keyboard Peon'. He doesn't actually collect toys, as far as anyone can work out the only figure he owns is a Figma Drossel.

I lurk 4chan's /toy/ board because unpleasant as it can be (it used to be pretty civil years ago, how times change), there are still a few quality posters who seem to be the fastest to break toy and collectible news, especially from Japan.

This person has a long history of trolling and crapflooding /toy/, here's a few examples I dug up with text searches on a third-party archive site:

Please note: I've spoilered the links as obviously coming from 4chan some of the replies to his posts have been somewhat NSFW or just generally unpleasant in tone and content - which mostly stems from the entire board hating the sight of him.

I'm sure if my brain could stand more than 30 minutes of looking at this drivel I could find even more examples in the archive of posts that correspond exactly to what he's said here in this thread, but hopefully that will be more than enough to prove my point.

Also here's his DeviantArt and YouTube accounts:

Sorry to everyone here who took him seriously and replied to him, I would recommend adding him to your ignore list immediately. To any passing mods reading this: I don't envy you, if he gives you good reason to ban his current account he'll be back within the day with a different IP and email address.

^ it is the last test of becoming a jedi, Rotj deleted scene showed luke use the force to build it, and I think it can only be done perfectly by using the force, thats why only jedi/sith/whatever can use them

What deleted scene? The one where he builds his lightsaber in a cave with a box of scraps?

And the new comics abviously no?

Plus someone told me that they're using stuff from Kotor. So I guess whatever is convenient to them is canon.

Where did you order your riot control troopers (TR-8Rs) from?

That's cool, I need to see that!
Your point is further evidenced by Vader's comments about Luke constructing a new lightsaber, observing "your training is now complete". So yeah, I think it's pretty certain that being able to construct your own lightsaber, regardless of your allegiance to dark/light, is widely seen as a must have skill to being a force user.

Has anyone actually gor a Scout and Scout Bike figure set yet? I'm regretting cancelling mine - I think I might have to pony up the aftersale prices
