:love: Saw that little devil over on the Jedi Council forums earlier today and though he looked pretty darned cool! Needs more fluff...fingers crossed for some more options soon!

For anyone interested in the Forces of Destiny figures (we have a few keen fans in our family), info is that at least The Warehouse will have them later (October). Basically, $29 for individual figs (Rey), $39 for those that come with other characters (Rey + BB8, Leia + R2).

There's even more Porg merch than this too. I have seen an image of something big that will be unveiled later today or tomorrow. :D It seems the licensees have gone all in on Porgs for TLJ.

Thanks for that, quite a few things I'd not seen yet! And the good Reverend has my attention and interest...

Has anyone bought the 3.75" scale Rathtar? I'm keen to see out-of-box pics. :)
