Is there actually any kind of event even planned for Rogue Friday, this year? ...

Haven't heard a single thing

Which makes the whole idea of embargo until 30th Sept quite silly actually.

Incidentally, I saw the reissued Black Series Rey (i.e. with Lightsaber) at The Warehouse today. This was actually part of Wave 4 (Hux & Asty wave) which was never released here, so quite strange to see it appear now. ** Edit:Found out this Rey is actually included in the Rogue One Wave 1 case ***

Yeah I went back to Pakuranga Warehouse to get some more Rogue One 3.75" figures and it looks like they pulled all stock from their shelves.

I guess we were lucky to get them when we did.

Bring on Friday!

So one lonely 6" and 3.75 Kylo Ren unmasked at The Warehouse Wainuimata, only one 3.75 Kylo at Tory Street Wellington, nothing at Lyall Bay but after monkeying up the shelving at Paraparaumu "SUCCESS". Full boxes and full range of 6" and 3.75, took up to counter picking my cashier carefully but a note came up on her computer about not selling until Friday but another young cashier said just ignore it as she had been selling all day YUSSSSS. My question is from Matt's pictures are the two packs available in NZ now?

Yup, we bought these two 2-packs locally. Didn't see the Poe vs Snowtrooper 2-pack that's supposed to be around in wave 1 though, but that might have just been because I wasn't that interested in it.

I saw the Poe vs Snowtrooper 2-pack at Westgate before they removed all the Rogue One stuff off the shelves. It wasn't very appealing.

I suspect we will be seeing that two-pack on pegs for a long time. Even with the inclusion of the Snowtrooper, the Poe figures is very boring, leaving me to wonder who at Hasbro thought that figure was worth doing instead of the countless aliens, droids, or even additional troopers that might have had greater shelf appeal.

Rouge One Wave 2 Basic Figures at Warehouse Lower Hutt. Guessing many other stores will have these as well.

Reposting from the main SWNZ page:

We have heard from an insider source that the Rogue One Rapid Fire Imperial AT-ACT vehicle from Hasbro will be available at The Warehouse from December 19th. Pricing TBC.

This is on top of the next wave of 3.75" action figures hitting The Warehouse very shortly (keep an eye out next week), and the TBS6 wave that contains Krennic, Scarif Stormtrooper squad leader, and C-3PO should be on their shelves in early December.

Great news! Been hanging out for these - especially that Jyn.

Thanks for the update Matt! Was there any indication if that'll also include the second wave of the two-packs?
