What is shocking to me is aside from Lego is the death of proper merchandising from toy makers since the death of Toys R Us. These shelves look like shit in major mid market retailers, and by extension that makes your product look like shit.

[@worndown8280]

Retail is about to implode. One of the two, Target or Walmart, wont make it through the recession. And little things like what you stated may very well be the deciding factor of which company makes it and which does not.

[@dreamcastfan]

Yeah, I was quite surprised at how jumbled and random the shelves were. That’s to be expected at a discount place, but proper retailers I’d expect to keep things organised and in their own sections, rather than any old random products thrown together on the shelves. Even if kids wanted to buy this woke rubbish they’d struggle to find what they’re looking for.

[@3Storms]

The not-a-recession has people having less disposable cash for this kind of thing while companies like Hasbro made it worse by raising prices. Lando is a great character, but limited-budget customers are gonna get picky and get one of the various Stormtroopers or clone troopers instead.

[@glorygloryholeallelujah]

Even if there wasn’t a recession that totally doesn’t exist and we currently aren’t all experiencing -the price on some of these toys was absolutely ridiculous… Like the 7up/Sierra mist toy from eternals, that was originally $28?! What?!!?🤷‍♀️

[@bladestar2322]

I already have one Lando, I don't need another. I actually use Star Wars Black human males as the Kingpins thugs. They do pretty good and there's not a lot of choice when it comes to Figures that can pass as Street Level guys. In actual Marvel Legends you can pretty much only use Eric Killmonger Mercenary figure, Star Lord, and T'Challa as Star Lord for Street Level Thugs. And, with all the Hi-Tech weaponry in the Marvel Universe, having blasters doesn't matter. Maybe Kingpin got them from Hydra or AIM.

@@glorygloryholeallelujah Yeah, I don't understand how kids are supposed to afford these. In my day action figures were $5 and the super highly detailed Lord of the Rings figures were sometimes $10 or $15. Now a basic figure that would've been right at home in the very simple OT rerelease era of the 90s goes for over $10, and a detailed figure that would've been standard around 2002 goes for over $20!

[@liljenborg2517]

Making new Star Wars shouldn't have been hard. This is Disney. They have a huge stable of teen talent who could have played Luke's students in a Young Jedi series. You could have had Han mentoring some young criminal kid/escaped slave to be an agent. You could have had Leia mentoring some young. starry eyed, politically idealistic New Republic intern in Leia's government office (and she could have been your idealistic mouthpiece). You could even have the bad-guys be this New Order made up of remnants of the Empire and some rich military-industrial-complex business types pining for the good old days when Imperial military spending kept them all rich. (But who's really running the New Order? The only-really-care-about-the-money evil CEOs or the Dark Side ideologues using Sith techniques to brainwash their army of child-soldier storm troopers?) It should have been the easiest money Disney ever made. Just make GOOD Star Wars. Comic writers, novelists, game devs, even fans have been doing it for DECADES. But no, destroying Luke and Han's characters seemed to be priority one with these people. I mean, at this point, it almost looks like Kennedy and others INTENTIONALLY sabotaged the franchise. The consistent level of bad choices at this point look too directed for the tanking franchise to be a function of mere incompetence.

[@jonarbuckle778]

Ahhh, but their is a flaw with your scheme... Disney would have to pay Royalties to the creators behind such popular content since it's becoming apparent the creators at Marvel and Lucasfilm had much better contracts and royalties prior to Disney acquiring both companies. There is a reason Lucasfilm under Disney's reign de-canonised the Star Wars Legends continuity in favour of their own content, made by new creators under new contracts that treat them like shit. Same with the All New All Different Marvel Era a decade ago that bombed so hard it hit rock bottom and continued past bedrock. It's why the MCU has skipped decades of content in favour of characters like America Chavez, and Kamala Khan's Ms Marvel that were created in the past decade. Disney is a bunch of cheap skate hacks trying to save a couple of bucks at the expense of their creators and the quality of content they release. It's why modern comic books look like shit because all the good writers and artists left probably due to low pay, and Disney replaced them with activists who work for cheap but lack talent. Same with films and TV, all the talent has gone elsewhere because Disney isn't good to their creators.

[@liljenborg2517]

@@jonarbuckle778 Ah, but here's the flaw in YOUR scheme: Giving creators five or even twenty five grand every time one of their creations gets a movie or TV series is less than a drop in the bucket for characters with established popularity vs these new characters that have proven to be exceptionally unpopular. If your movie rakes in a billion dollars, tossing a few grand at the family of some dead artist is WORTH it compared to using a "new-ish" character in a movie that barely breaks even because nobody cares about the "All New All Different" characters and is completely turned off by the "white man bad/grrrl power" messaging. Even then, Disney hasn't been using a lot of "new" characters. Phase 4 has had an Eternals movie (not new), Black Widow movie (not new), Shang Chi (also not new), Thor, Doctor Strange, and a Spiderman movie (not new, not new, and nope, not new). And TV series featuring Falcon and Winter Solider, Wanda and Vision, Loki, Moon Knight, Hawkeye, and now She Hulk (all long-time Marvel characters). Only Ms. Marvel focused exclusively on an "All New All Different" era character. Now, yes those movies and shows prominently feature Jane Thor, America Chavez (who isn't exactly new), and Kate Bishop, but they're still having to pay out whatever royalties due out for all the other characters they're using anyway?

That's my reasoning when I used to buy LEGO Star Wars sets back in the late 2010s. I love minifigs, especially those Mega Bloks HALO figures from years back that I still have in my collection (but be careful with their hands - MB HALO figures are notorious for having weak hands that break easily) and I only started on those because the weapons were awesome. I even bought a fair number of Brickarms weapons based on real life WWI and WWII guns to equip those minifigs. I even bought plenty of cheap Chinese knockoffs of Star Wars minifigs (I came across - and still have - a surprisingly good looking Captain Phasma), mainly for the decent-looking cheap weapons. Now I stopped collecting those because all the good sets are no longer in production. Plus I have all I need and I'm directing my collecting energy elsewhere (Warhammer 40k).

[@chessoc7799]

Danger mouse ? that's going back a few decades :) Ok if I saw that I might buy it.

I remember the Attack of the Clones figures,who had metal lightsabers with detachable blades, so you could activate them at will and use magnets in the figures' hands to summon them.

Marvel Legends needs to get back to 80s and 90s comic characters. Finish off the X characters you haven't gotten to (Feral, Phoenix, Banshee), more 80's Avengers (long rumored riders Hawkeye, Star Fox, Monica Captain Marvel), Power Man and Iron Fist, etc. I don't think the Wakanda Forever wave is going to sell any better, than the last few MCU waves have.

This. I suppose you could get a considerable discount if you bought a large amount of them.

[@johndurham6172]

I wouldn't mind getting the Danger Mouse figure.

[@avarice.karmageddon]

1. No; 2. No; 3. Baby Yoda/Grogu is overrated. More clearance stores videos! Thank you for the amusing and funny content!

[@rbu2136]

Ain’t buying my kids any Disney crap. People who hate me don’t get my money.

[@ravencraft3074]

The only disney merch I will buy is Cara Dune. I'm on total boycott of everything disney

[@francoisregis2155]

I do the same no more cash for Shitney products

[@dylives7667]

Armored Spider Man? More like, *Pepsi Man!*

[@nicarde88]

Not the hero we need, but the hero we deserve

[@robertgriffiths1724]

Toybiz marvel legends was never like this 😔

[@therealzeel3081]

I would spend $10 for another Baby Yoda. Have one at home and one in the office. But ultimately Baby Yoda is going to be a case study in MBA programs on how not to do a product launch.

[@BiggieTrismegistus]

He *is* really cute. I might go to Ollie's and get one.

Kids dont play with toys as much as Millennials and Gen Xers did. The demographic that toy makers target are now largely targeted by video game companies. I'm an Xer and my kids never were into toys. They are gamers and now building their own computers and what not. I think a lot of the toys were being purchased by adult fans but that well, due to the abuse the real fans have received, is now bone dry. You said it yourself, you dont buy Star Wars merch anymore. There are a lot of us out there that dont/wont. That has a cumulative effect.

[@zenvariety9383]

I'm a millennial and almost 30. I outgrew toys when I was 8. Younger millennials like video games. So the fact that these companies aren't incorporating toys into video games is a missed opportunity.

“The guy flies into the sun” I literally laugh every time I hear it 😂 joke of a movie

[@Fitz_Swackhammer]

Man, I just wish I could unload my old POTF stuff from the 90s. All that stuff is nearly thirty years old and barely anyone wants even that.

[@red3994]

its sad how the only things star wars i have bought within years is stuff from the prequels and originals, just recently i bought all the 2005-06 DVDs of episodes 1-6 just to relive my childhood and an old Grievous figure from the 2003 Clone Wars series. Just goes to show how fast disney can lose an audience with its stupidity

[@TSoneonetwo]

even the "clearance" prices are completely inflated. imho there wasn't a single thing worth more than a dollar.

[@jameshill3403]

Even in the 90s they were making way too many Star wars toys those Kenner action figures were everywhere

[@MaximusJohal]

For me its the cost of the figures and toys are so expensive. Even when on sale they are like £15 from £25, you guys have items less than $9.99

[@thegadflygang5381]

I haven't seen this channel in years and when it comes up it is the exact same place we left off on. AND I LOVE IT. I probably sank a few dozen hours into your Star Wars bin closeout vids.

[@deweylipschitz1516]

Just came from my local Walmart. Lots of Eternals figures ,which never seen to move.

[@kevinscott4081]

It is Karma for running their whole distribution network without integrity. I run a small toy and collectible business. The big name manufacturers will not deal with you directly. You have to buy through a distributor. You order thousands of dollars of these wonderful products to bring to your customers and they arrive half of them damaged during shipment. Only a small amount, if any, will be mint condition. They package everything half-assed, with the product cases right up against the wall of the shipping box and no cushioning in between. In order to buy the products, you have to agree that they are ultimately not responsible for damage to products during shipment (even though they do not protect the products during shipment), but they will offer a refund that THEY decide is appropriate and it is never satisfactory. Sometimes the packaging is damaged enough where people will not buy it, but we only get a small refund from the distributor. It's a horrible industry that doesn't respect the products.

[@UlookinMe]

Part of the reason is the toys are stupid and not fun. It’s all build your own light sabers and stupid masks and staffs.. Like, back when I was kid and the prequels were big you had racks of 3.75 inch clone troopers of all kinds and cool Jedi, vehicles like tanks, speeders and walkers. All pretty cheap too, think most of the figures were $6. But my point is you could build armys, imagine missions and fights and all kinds of stuff. They don’t make star ways toys like that now.

[@muigokublack6487]

Those were REALLY good for army-building clones and battle droids.

[@matthewcoyle4131]

There was 2 Lando figures released around the same time. General and Jaba's Palace both from ROTJ. The Jaba's Palace one just looked really good so I can see why no one bought the other one. It's not bad but the Jaba one just looked so much like Billy Dee that my family bought it the moment we saw it.

[@mitchflatt115]

Walk through galaxy’s edge. The employees in the store just talk to each other because no one buys any of the toys and such in the marketplace outside ronto rosters. Only people buy the build your own droid or the light saber. The original trilogy stuff outside star tours is very busy. It’s so funny and easy to see.

[@Jetblast01]

What a shame, the Black Widow toy does come with a lot of nice looking effect parts, that's more of a draw than the figure itself. You know, it'd REALLY help the industry and planet if there were less of these junk products being made. If there's such low demand, why is the supply STILL so damn high?

[@AJadedLizard]

Yeah, i thought that watching this. *That* was the kind of toy I wanted as a kid. I had a Jango Fett action figure as a kid who came with two blasters (with molded holsters on his legs), a removable jetpack, a missile and a dummy for posing, his wrist grappling hook, and a removable helmet, plus double jointed arms, and he was only $5. That Black Widow figure would've cost the same price as a new game for my Gameboy Advance, or 2-3 used N64 games. That kinda math sorta of speaks for itself.
