I always wanted an action figure of Jaxxon.

Yeah? Well, I won't be happy until they make a movie about Dex Jetster's life and make a "Tales from Dex's Diner" TV series.

Anyone else here buy the first non-movie-adaptation issue of the original comic book series in SPITE of Jaxxon?

BB-8 was the "cute" sales item from Force Awakens.

Yeah, but if you tried to hug BB-8 you'd break your face.

Nothing they do will ever be cuter than BB-8 to me.

Rumors are that Chewie eats the porgs...

Exhibit A-

The new Space Opera: Porgy and Bespin

So these guys are puppets. If they aren't this years hot toy, I'd not be shocked to see them for sale in SW:GE. Disney has been enjoying way too much success with the banshee shoulder puppets in Pandora.

Behold, the interactive Porg. It is suppose to be a lot like a Furby.

Why is this in the "Disneyland" thread?

Just something that will appear in the SWL gift shop.

I would condemn LucasFilm's cheap marketing ploy with these guys, but then I'd feel real guilty about the $130 I just dropped on a Sphero BB-8... or the die-cast Cars cars my daughter has been into lately.

The Sphero BB-8 was something you have to watch for. I bought mine for $65 from Entertainment Earth a few months ago. The expensive things always go on clearance for a fraction of the price. Prices go up and down faster than stocks.
That thing is currently at $105 at Amazon.

Would you consider yourself an enabler or co-dependent?

So overpriced and boring?

 

[Curious Constance]

So really, this is a thread started to complain about a product that nobody is forcing you to buy so you can belittle the people who might enjoy it.
Nice.

I think this thread was started because of how cute these things are.

Alright. Sorry.
