Star Wars: The Last Jedi Toys Are STILL On Shelves 6 Years Later

The Last Jedi released in 2017, I'm so glad I can still find the toys. There's another Disney brand that's dead at retail and that's a problem for the house of mouse.

There were so many Episode 2 era action figures that I was convinced didn't exist because I only saw them in ads and never saw them on the shelves. I remember when I finally found the Obi-Wan with the pilot headgear and the rain cloak at Toys R Us I got so excited not because I desperately wanted the figure but because I couldn't find the figure prior.

[@offworlder1]

People claim that the PT was so bad but those toys flew off the shelf because the PT has a lot of good stuff in it. The ST did not even have epic set pieces to keep even the youngest children interested which is reflected with the lack of toys selling.

@@Hoganply The prequels had such cool concepts that translated well into toys and they came at a time when Hasbro still did small and medium vehicles, creatures and playsets. The sequels had very few of these and it didn't help that they came out at a time when Hasbro quality took a nosedive.

Another problem Disney has with Star Wars products is that outside of the toy aisle, LITERALLY everything Star Wars is Baby Yoda. At Target we have a BY Chia pet. All T-shirts, both children and adults, are about BY. In party supplies, the plates, napkins, wrapping paper, stickers, and tablecloths are all about BY. There is a BY toothbrush and toothpaste. The bedsheets all feature BY, along with BY cuddle pillows. There are no other characters to be found, although we may get a Mandalorian helmet here and there. It is borderline ridiculous. Where are the Luke, Leia, and Vader themed products? Disney spent 4 billion dollars to turn Star Wars into a baby franchise.

[@caryslan5890]

You know, I have watched several of these videos and I noticed that TMNT toys are almost never shown and when they are, people seem to be buying them. The reason why I bring this up is because TMNT like Marvel and Star Wars was gobbled up by a huge multimedia conglomerate which is Viacom in this case. While they have made some missteps with the TMNT franchise(if you wanna call the 2014 and 2016 film missteps), Viacom seems to have gotten good returns on the franchise. For example, many recent Marvel games over the past few years have been huge flops while Shredder's Revenge sold a million copies in a week. My point to all this is how TMNT and Disney's franchises have been treated in recent years. The Turtles aren't being gender swapped, popular legacy characters aren't getting pushed to the side in favor of less popular newcomers, political ideology is not being shoved down our throats. While with Disney the polar opposite is happening and it's turning off their fans who aren't buying merchandise based on IPs that are going out of their way to turn off the fan base. Disney bought some of the most popular franchises on Earth and due to a combination of bad decisions have somehow turned franchises that print money into stuff that people don't want if it's free. Maybe this is a lesson to be learned.

[@AlmightyRager95]

Clearly they're not learning fast enough.

I bought some vintage style Star Wars figures recently, (only a stormtrooper, vader and luke, the ones that come in a wax paper) as decorations next to my TV, and whats funny is that the only figures people are buying are the classic characters. My local Walmart was almost sold out of the vintage style Darth Vader and Luke figures, fully sold out of Anankin, Leia and Maul figures and the only ones that were available in literal HOARDS were Grogu, the mandolorian, generic black vader lady etc I mean basically every Disney star wars figure was untouched. It just goes to show that the fan base has never left the original 6 movies and that Disney royally fucked up the series and added nothing the fan base wants.

The Ollie’s near me has quite a bit of new Marvel stuff as well as ‘sequel trilogy’ stuff

As a white person I am proud to call Samuel L Jackson a master, as jedi, as an actor, as a black man. Anyway, Reva sucks. And Slave 1 became Firespray...? I missed that. Clearly an insult to fans. Not that star wars doesn't have dumb names but still...

Hasbro layed off its workers. At least we know in the Transformers side its not our fault.

They’re probably more useful as custom figure fodder. And even then, barely that.

This is why Strange World has no merchandise.

Seeing a video like this from WCB is like GnR doing welcome to the jungle. A crowd pleaser!

[@inadisguise9824]

Said it before, you tell how successful a franchise is by the merchandise they sell, toys, action figures, t-shirts, hats, bed sheets, current franchises sell little cause people don't buy stuff from IPs they don't like. Even the OG Star Wars made billions more off merchandise than all gross ticket sales from all 3 movies combined.

A good Valentine’s gag gift would be to get someone a Dozen Roses: Tico 😅

15 or so years ago I bought a something that I didn't really remember. It was a loose Tie Bomber with everything with it in a zip lock bag at a yard sale. I think that's my most prized SW possession besides the Legacy edition Falcon in the box and my original X wing belt buckle I got for Christmas. I still wear it everyday. It's priceless to me. My dad never cared what I liked but he bought me that for some reason. 1977 Lucas film version. Something that's worth nothing and I'd have to be killed to get it off my belt.

The yellow droid looks more like a Halo character then a star wars character. 3:15

[@Deadgirl97]

I'm pretty sure my local Walmart just throws stuff away. I remember we had a big pile of star wars stuff in clearance in late 2018 but then it was all gone by the end of the year. Not one by one gradually trickling down. Just the whole pile. Gone. The shelf space was worth more than the toys at that point.

[@NJBization]

I cannot believe they still have Disney infinity figurines.

[@recapnerd2657]

I honestly didn’t know these Lightyear figures existed

[@aurygrandson5517]

This really makes me sad, all i wanted was collect the empires ships but they dont sell here on my country
