collectors are more selective. Im a SW PF collector only and havent PO's a bunch of SW PF ...simply because they are to expensive and they get cheaper later because of high ES.

Seeing Kylo Ex, First Order STormtrooper EX, Jango EX, Jyn Ex.. all still available.. tells me its smart to wait until they get released and grab them cheaper

okie dokie! Thanks for the heads up. This one I really like but the rest of the sw are a sure for less later. But you're right 500 Es and still here. This will be mine one way or another for sure.

Plus these days Sideshow seem to be releasing what are basically recasts of their older statues with different paint colour and minimal base change. So whats the hurry anymore with this kind of tomfoolery going on.

I don't think any $500 statues from RogueOne or TFA will be in demand for a long time.

they don't have the emotional attachment of that fan base yet, at least not to the degree the OT had (and hell, even the PT).

when today's kids hit their 30s, we will likely see more interest. I know I would buy almost anything from the OT over these, especially at these price points.

Spot on. Yes, RO was good and all, but definitely not OT.

I don't think they will ever replicate that magic.

Enjoyed TFA, less so RO. I don't feel the need to collect anything from that movie, and not too many things from TFA. OT still dominates my wants.

I wonder with the popularity of sw will
We ever see a sequel to rogue one? I really hope we can see some of these characters again if we buy a pf on them. Would hate to buy a sw pf and have the main characters die off in one movie. We must get a sequel to rogue one.

Snap, I was disappointed with R1 unfortunately and wouldn't wish to pay todays prices for the PF's even if I did like them from an artistic point of view. The only one I really want form the two Disney movies is the Kylo Ren PF. That is really nice and I've even passed on that so far simply due to the price. Times are changing.

What I'd really like to see while we can still afford some of these things is some Killer characters we haven't seen before pieces such as a Tie Pilot...

I'm still mostly an OT fan but I do have Hot Toys Rey, BB8, and Kylo Ren. And I have Hot Toys Luke TFA and Rey to pose the hand off of the lightsaber. As for Rogue one I' ve got Hot Toys Jyn and K-2SO. That's probably about it for those movies for me.
