• Hasbro’s major retail partners appear to be poised to lose big on Star Wars (maybe)

  Posted by Unknown Member on October 20, 2004 at 10:53 PM

  K-mart:

  12 or more Cantina Alien 3-packs with Kitik Keed Kak, Evazan, Wuher.

  Toys R Us:

  Jedi Council and Geonosian War Room 3-packs.
  12″ Leia Boussh Disguise set from 2003 (2002?)
  12″ Han Solo / AT-ST Driver (from Lando Skiff wave)
  12″ Zam Wessel from 2002
  POTJ Zutton figure from 2001

  KB Toys:

  $1.99 Han Solo Endor Raids etc. from Saga 2002
  $7.99 Cloud Car Pilot waves overpriced that no one wants to buy
  12″ Gamorrean Guards sitting
  Playskool original ‘Galactic Hero style’ Falcon WITH the Stormtrooper figure

  Wal-Mart / Target:

  Unleashed AOTC Obi-Wan Kenobi “voted most unpopular Unleashed by fans”

  ALL STORES:

  General Jan Dodonna
  Galactic Heroes Millennium Falcon
  OTC Millennium Falcon
  Princess Leia Bespin Gown

  There are very few products here that I did not like and did not buy. 3-4 perhaps, but some of the stuff I really thought was cool is not moving.

  What do you see as the mistakes?

  What do you see will be the consequences for future SW waves – especially looking at the Padme / Pablo Jill group and the Cantina Aliens that will come out prior to the sneak preview figures for Episode 3?

  Do you think SW sold more because of the DVD release?

  What will effect will before-Christmas shopping have on Star Wars that’s out or coming out now?
