HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF! DAYS AFTER THE END OF THE HASLAB CAMPAIGN, GALACTUS GETS DESTROYED!

BREAKING NEWS:

HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF! DAYS AFTER THE END OF THE HASLAB CAMPAIGN, GALACTUS GETS DESTROYED!

We all remember this…

Last year, a few days after the last Star Wars Haslab campaign for the TVC Razor Crest ship ended, the ship was completely and utterly DESTROYED in the Mandalorian TV series. They say lightning never strikes twice at the same time, right? Well…

Remember this?

How could we forget… (Sorry for bringing back that pain)

ToyFarce received the anonymous tip that in an upcoming coming book from Marvel Comics, supposed to come out this wednesday, Galactus will be randomly completely and utterly DESTROYED in a similar way. First we will see Galactus just standing in a big field next to some rocks, and an orange/pink laser will come out from the corner of the frame, and obliterate the Devourer of Worlds.

*PEW!* (re-enactement)

*KABOOM!* (re-enactement)

It is a good thing that the Rancor already met his demise in the Return of the Jedi (Spoilers!), but we would advise any remaining Rancors NOT to hang out in a big field next to some rocks when the next Haslab Star Wars campaign will be ending… We’ve been fooled twice already!

More news at 11:00… be careful of orange lasers coming from the corner of the screen/page!

REVIEW: HOT TOYS THE MANDALORIAN & THE CHILD (DELUXE VERSION)

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

HOT TOYS THE MANDALORIAN & THE CHILD (DELUXE VERSION)!

It’s wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

This week, we’re reviewing the Deluxe version of The Mandalorian & The Child from Hot Toys. Yep. The figure was ordered on KGHobby as soon as it was announced, and arrived last week. As expected, it is a gorgeous piece! What it is lacking in articulations and poseability (the suit gets in the way a lot), it makes up for it with how amazing it looks. Two Grogu/Baby Yoda (yes, two!), tons of great accessories and possibilities, , it’s a very, very nice set!

“Nice armor!”

Art box (sorry, I didn’t take a picture of the brown shipper box. It was beautiful, though!)

Inner sleeve

2 levels of awesomeness

(Some ‘collectors’ actually leave those wrapping plastic around the figure and display them like that. LOL!)

The classic “Museum pose”, a favorite of Hot Toys collectors (supposedly to avoid damaging the suit, which makes the whole process of buying a $250+ figure with real clothes absolutely pointless)

“The child coos”

The stand is the same as the previous Mandalorian figure, but comes with an additional part in which you can “plant” the tube that holds the pram in the air. Yes, it’s a transparent tube. Hot Toys still didn’t come up with the technology to have it hovering over the ground… SMH!

Closed pram…

Open pram!

“COO!”

“Pull my finger, kid…”

“Wherever I go, he goes.”

The Mandalorian theme intensifies!

Among the accessories, you can find a tracking fob. Now, how do these things work? Seriously? We’ve seen them in the shows. The characters just look at it and can tell “He’s 200ft northwest from here.” while there is only one blinking red dot. I WANT TO KNOW.

Mando also comes with 3 different attachements for his vambrace (had to google that one), of the whistling birds:

Closed

Loaded…

And FIRE!!

Talking about fire, he also comes with a flame thrower attachment for his other vambrace (yeah, i’ll use it a lot now).

“Anybody wants to grill something?”

2 different ‘earpieces’ included, closed one, and with his night light out, so that he can read books in the dark.

A great addition to the Deluxe version was the Camtono (or ice cream maker from the 70’s). It’s highly detailed and opens up like in the show, with a few beskar ingot inside.

Other “Deluxe version” exclusive accessories are a wired grappling hook, hologram Mando, and the shoulder piece with his Mudhorn symbol

BADASS

The jetpack can be attached thanks to magnets (how do they work?). It comes with 2 fire effects, so you can get your Mando airborne!

Finally, the necklace for Grogu is the perfect last addition to that amazing set.

“It’s called fashion. Look it up.”

“You’re… smaller.”

I’m gonna tell my kid this was Daft Punk.

It was very fun to take those pics and get to play with each accessories, rather than just get it out of the box, put it in one position and toss it in a Detolf forever. I will definitely do that again! Now, I just have to pick a badass pose!

MORE HASLAB RAZOR CREST STRETCH GOALS REVEALED!

BREAKING NEWS:

MORE HASLAB RAZOR CREST STRETCH GOALS REVEALED!

During the first ever Hasbro PulseCon, Hasbro revealed their new Haslab crowfunded project, the Mandalorian’s Razor Crest, with an initial goal of 6000 backers, which was shattered within 24h.

When the first goal of 8000 backers was reached, Hasbro announced that the first stretch goal would be the addition of the escape pod, and announced the next goal would be 10,000 backers, and the next item unlocked would be none other than the Child, to go with the ship!

6,000 backers: The Escape pod was added to the Razor Crest.

Reveal of the next goal

As usual, ToyFarce investigated and asked some inside sources what the next stretch goals would be, and here are the reveals, exclusively for you!

15,000 backers: A pine scented spaceship-freshener, along with some fuzzy dice for the cockpit!

20,000 backers: A beskar trumpet will be added in the armory

(Yes, we’re doing inside jokes now. After the Mortal Kombat Spawn and the Haslab Sentinel, The Mandalorian now gets a trumpet too!)

30,000 backers: The Razor Crest gets some pin-up posters

(It gets lonely in space when you’re bounty hunting. Don’t judge!)

40,000 backers: The Razor Crest will get some badass musclecar flame patterns. Yep.

A huge shout-out to @starwarsphotoshop on Instagram / WookieNutz on Facebook for posting that reveal earlier this week:

80,000 backers: The Festive Holiday paintwork, to go with the Holiday Edition stormtroopers.

Some say that if it reaches 1,000,000 backers, Pedro Pascal will hand-deliver it to you…and he will have to wear the helmet!!

What would you like to see as a stretch goal for the Razor Crest? Let us know in the comments!

HASBRO QUIT MAKING FIGURES FOR ‘THE MANDALORIAN’ HALFWAY THROUGH PRODUCTION TOO, AFTER HEARING RUMORS!

After hearing about the rumors that Pedro Pascal was (allegedly) difficult to work with, and (allegedly) left ‘The Mandalorian’ set halfway through filming due to issues with the creative teams (the actor (allegedly) wanted to be able to show his face more, which is definitely NOT the way), Hasbro decided to do the exact same thing and quit making ‘The Mandalorian’ in beskar armor from the Black Series line halfway through production too.

Reference, in case you missed it: https://cosmicbook.news/star-wars-pedro-pascal-difficult-mandalorian

“If the actor from the show can quit halfway through production, we can do it too” said a Hasbro representative.

ToyFarce would like to thank Alexander Alicea-Cruz for the anonymous tip. (Wait… what does ‘anonymous’ mean, again?). Also, ToyFarce is aware that not a single trustworthy news website has confirmed that, and that Cosmicbook News is usually full of cr*p. (If it happens to be true, though, just don’t read the ‘allegedly’ parts).

REVIEW: MATTEL'S STAR WARS - THE CHILD

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

REVIEW: MATTEL'S STAR WARS - THE CHILD 

There has been a disturbance in the Force. A new toy has made its way to ToyFarce's home which has caused another toy to feel threatened...

Baby Groot felt a threat that he might not be the cutest life-size toy in the house anymore, and needed to inspect the situation.

“I am groot.” - *The child coos*

After some deliberation, Baby Groot decided that they might have more chances at being the cutest thing in the house, if they formed an alliance.

So it was agreed.

...until the eventual sudden heel turn from Baby Groot !

 "I AM GROOT!!"

Baby Groot had only forgotten about one thing... the Force.

“I…am…Groot…”

*The Child coos*

All in all, for 29$, this might be the best 'The Child' version around. Unless we're talking about the SUPER TINY Black Series one, which is the TINIEST THING EVER MADE. Review coming soon!

More news at 11:00... *cooing*

HASBRO FEELING LEFT OUT FROM THE BABY YODA ANNOUNCEMENTS CONTROVERSY BETWEEN SIDESHOW AND HOT TOYS!!

BREAKING NEWS: 

HASBRO FEELING LEFT OUT FROM THE BABY YODA ANNOUNCEMENTS CONTROVERSY BETWEEN SIDESHOW AND HOT TOYS!! 

"They could have at least crashed our website too!" says Hasbro employee. 

On January 30th, Sideshow Collectibles announced a life-size figure (well...statue) of The Child, from 'The Mandalorian' TV series. This led to a huge amount of traffic on the website which caused it to crash. Major news outlets started to report the website crash all over the internet, and the very next day, the blockbuster toy company from Hong Kong, Hot Toys, decided to break its silence and announced they were going to make figures of The Child, not only life-size, but also in 1:4th and 1:6th scale.

Toy collectors everywhere went crazy with speculations after this announcement for a few reasons: 

- Sideshow is the main distributor for Hot Toys, so having both brands competing against each other for the Child figure could create a rift between the brands. What will happen? Sideshow had to know that Hot Toys was making one too, right?

- Why did Hot Toys go out of their way to put together a collage to announce they would indeed do the figure, when they had nearly 2 months to do so? 

- For the people that pre-ordered it and caused the site to crash: How does one get a Non-Refundable Deposit back? We all know people will order the Hot Toys version from Sideshow anyway... Did Sideshow just con the Star Wars fandom out of NRD money?

Meanwhile, Hasbro, the long-time toy maker behind the Star Wars figures, had released that same announcement on December 12, 2019, 50 days before Sideshow and Hot Toys, along with a plethora of other The Child/'Baby Yoda' related merchandise. They announced a talking plush, a Black series figure, a 6,5" figure, and a series of mini figures of the Child in various situations, called the 'Bounty Collection'. 

'When we announced all those figures back in early december, more than a month and a half before Sideshow, our website didn't crash.' we were told by an employee who will remain anonymous. 'Not a spike in traffic, nothing. Our timing must have been off. I do not know what happened. They could have at least crashed our website too...'.

If we were in Hasbro's place, I admit it would feel a bit unfair to be overshadowed by those 2 giants, but rest assured that Hasbro will certainly sell a ton of Baby Yoda merchandise in the months to come, with the Sideshow and Hot Toys versions not being available before the end of the year or probably 2022, respectively.

HEAVY INFANTRY MANDALORIAN JUST BOBA FETT WITH A MAN OF STEEL BODY?!

BREAKING NEWS:

HEAVY INFANTRY MANDALORIAN JUST BOBA FETT WITH A MAN OF STEEL BODY?!

Take this one with a grain of salt, but an insider source has informed us that the Heavy Infantry Mandalorian, announced recently by Hot Toys, is actually just unsold Boba Fett figures using a Man of Steel Superman body to make it look bulkier.
The source, who preferred to remain anonymous has told us the following "I swear, this is just a MOS body swap and a repaint. This is wh*ck".
This is why in promo pictures, we can see him mostly flying, in the same way that Superman would fly.
The gatling gun that he is holding came from a prototype of a Vulcan Raven figure, from the Metal Gear Solid franchise that was quickly abandoned by Hot Toys after being announced, in order to make more Iron Man figures.
As of writing, we have yet to find out if the source was disgruntled or not.
