The worst part, well one of the worst parts, of the sequel trilogy is that TFA, though not the best SW film, set up for something that could've been easily as good as the OT or PT. I don't know if y'all have heard this, but apparently JJ had originally intended for Luke to me meditating and have massive boulders floating around him when Rey found him, but Rian asked if he could change that one thing. Literally, if that one thing hadn't have been changed, the entire ST would've been completely different, and more than likely, AWESOME! But of course, we all know how it turned out, and I don't hate the ST like so many do. It was just such a let down from what it could've and should've been. But yeah, no hate to the actors, they actually did a great job with what was given to them.
Also, love the Cara Funko Tepes. Not a huge Funko fan, but Cara is awesome.
Ruin's a d*ck no surprise here... He's one of the reason the ST went sideways. The other one being no script for the three consecutive films. I hated TLJ for a moutain of reasons. But at least I give JarJar Abrahams credit for trying to correct part of TLJ stupidity. Though, too little too late. Plus big chunks of it were supposedly cut off and it was rearranged. In the end, as far as I am concerned, it's far from being the worst of the three. And at least half of the problems in the movie come from the worst of the three.

Gave in a preordered Bo-Katan, Dooku and Grievous. Damn. Feels good and bad at the same time. I shall meditate on my frustration and weekness to fuel my rage and become stronger.

See, I'm the weirdo that thinks TLJ is the best of the sequels. I thought TFA was great, TLJ is one of my favorites, and TRoS is fun. Then again, I'm also the weirdo that only dislikes 1/9 movies of the franchise so I guess im just not that picky lol.

For me, my 1/9 is TLJ, and that isn't even a "I HATE THIS MOVIE". Its a "this is not a good movie, but because it's labeled "Star Wars" I'll enjoy it while I'm watching and then go on disliking it while I'm not".

I did not even enjoy it while I was seeing it. I really don't understand how someone could like this movie. The storytelling is badly done, the script is... urgh. Rose Tico? URGH. the holdo suicide? What's the point? Jake Skywalker Sure, some shots are pretty and all... But overall it was painful to watch. So I'm not surprised that toys from this particular movie do not sell.

RONIN MANDO?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! https://p-bandai.com/us/item/N2543180001001I told myself I didn’t need anymore figures. These people have no respect for my wallet or my lack of shelf space.

I assume that all Cara Dune figures will go up crazily in value now that Disney has fired her. Congrats.

Funnily enough, it wasn't an intentional move on my part. I was just thinking I needed a Cara Dune figure because I'm wainting on a mando + child figure. So I gave in. The black series was unavailable so I went for this one. 2 days after getting it... She was fired. And ebay is kinda going crazy. It was already too late to snag another one from the shop. Oh well. I'm not really a seller kind of guy ^^'

Yea...the first wave of Cara figures I passed on because I did not know whether The Mandalorian would be any good. Second Release adulting things took precedence and I missed that one to. Preordered the 3rd release then the bullshellery happened and Hasbro canceled the pre orders. So to Ebay I had to go. Luckily I found one that wasn't insanely marked up.

Well played =) I'm quite happy with mine. Same size as the black series ones.
