I want my damn kylo mask.

Still need two black series storm troopers and one captain plasma. Please let me know if you guys see any for retail.
 
This guy just made me look at my Kylo Ren FX lightsaber in disgust :lol I'd love for him to upgrade mine but it seems like a hassle to get one done from him.

Yo that ish is wild. He even got the center blade to pulse. I've seen this crossguard blade in you tube. Makoto blades are legit and I'm definitely planning on ordering one from his site once I figure it out lol. The best part is its strip LED based so it retains the extend and retract effect as opposed to an LED in the base.

This guy modified the Hasbro one and made it brighter and louder.



He works for saber forge or something. Says he'll do the conversions and he also posted a step by step guide here

"When a ruthless prince rises to power and threatens galactic peace, a defected soldier, an uncongenial scavenger, and a hot shot pilot find their fates intertwined as they embark on a journey to find the most powerful warrior in the galaxy."
A lil more info would be appreciated :lol

meanwhile finn has a deadend job as a stormtrooper with asthma

:rollin :rollin :rollin

:lol :rollin :lol :rollin
 
Adam Driver plays Kylo Ren whos basically the goth dude in a cult who googles how to make pipe bombs and lightsabers because his school/galaxy is too suburban for his liking. Hes got posters of Darth Vader all over his room and wants to be just like him so he stirs **** up in the galaxy.

meanwhile finn has a deadend job as a stormtrooper with asthma and dude has just had enough so he literally jumps off a plane but doesnt kill himself. But its not that easy to leave said job so they chase his *** around where he runs into a homeless hipster girl named Rey who (shocker) doesnt know who her parents are (drunk trying to be too cool dad played by harrison ford) ,galavants through the williamsburg parts of the galaxy. 

they all run into each other including the dbag from high school who became a pilot because he knew someone to get him in. and they try to find this mystical jedi named luke skywalker whos just washed up crying in his secret lair listening to journey until they show up and give him his lightsaber and he wants to go save the world again.



at least thats what i got from it.

:Nthat Nice.

Use the store locate option to see which stores near you have them in stock. Tip don't go where it says low stock as they might have 1 or something and they can't find it.

Also if you're in the LA area, the Culver City target shows "low stock" for the Kylo Ren saber meaning they'll have 1. Given the size i'm sure they'll be able to locate it in the store (6000 Sepulveda Blvd, Culver City, CA 90230,)

Every now and then I read certain comments on other Star Wars related sites and this one caught my eye...

A fan wanted to expand on the EP VIII rumored cameo and this is what he said...
The question here is will Disney seek to build something new and iconic for a new generation or will they continue a saga that will be, and always has been, about Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader. 

There are actually clues to this, and if it turns out to be a resurrection story, it will have been signposted in the earlier films. Anakin Skywalker turned from the Light with the promise of greater power, indeed the promise of fulfilling his own potential, the purpose of which was to cheat death. In Anakin's case, to save Padme. Darth Sidious sought this power seemingly to prolong his own life (it co
uld be inferred he needed Anakin to achieve this), telling Anakin of Darth Plagueis' attempt at immortality. In the end, both Sidious and Vader were ruined by their fateful confrontations with the Light, and perhaps their abilities were restricted also. Ultimately, it was Qui-Gon Jinn's spirit that called from the afterlife. Yoda told Obi-Wan that he had new training to undertake from an old master. Ben told Vader '...cut me down, and I will become more powerful.' Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, Yoda and finally Anakin himself achieved immortality of sorts with their ability to communicate from beyond.

Then there is the prophecy. Anakin was to bring balance. The Dark Side had eclipsed the Light, but Vader redeemed himself and killed the Dark Side's great exponent. With Anakin's death, it would seem the Force is no longer accessible. Perhaps, unable to channel the Force and to train new Jedi, Luke has retreated. Perhaps Luke is a crazy old wizard now, talking with ghosts. Talking to himself. Suddenly now, we have an awakening - without accessing spoilers, it is clear a new generation of Force users is present, neither Jedi nor Sith. With this in mind, and with Kylo Ren clearly driven by the memory and inspiration of Darth Vader, a return for Anakin Skywalker is not so fanciful. Perhaps the prophecy is unfulfilled.
Interesting theory.
 
This mug is gigantic. I grabbed one at the midnight Force Friday release just so I didn't go home empty-handed (Target was poorly organized) and didn't notice at first. The next morning, I'm washing it and realized it's too damn big and unwieldy. Outta curiosity, I made some coffee with my Keurig and used the biggest setting and it barely filled the mug halfway :rollin
 
Had to let mine go I got a good offer and realized I wouldn't be able to take it out to bars on Halloween any way. Will probably get a cheaper one with a retractable blade. Still got my voice changing mask on the way.
 
I think I may just end up investing in the SH Figuarts line. Those are clean.
