[QUOTE="TK-7785, post: 521793, member: 8868"] Is it me or does it feel like Disney have massively dropped the ball with The Mandalorian? And I don't mean the obvious lack of rolling put Disney+ so everyone can see it, but the lack of merchandise. The internet is ablaze with love for the show and its characters, ships, worlds etc, "baby Yoda" is possibly one of the highest trending topics on the interwebs, yet the lack of official merch is conspicuous in its absence. Every day I see fans creating and putting out some amazing custom pieces, be it a "baby Yoda" sculpture, a Razor Crest model you can 3D print yourself or some sort of Mando artwork, yet all Disney seem to have managed is a couple of Black Series figures (to the best of my knowledge anyway). They'd be rinsing it with "baby Yoda" items right now and I'd personally love a Razor Crest model kit to make of the Christmas break. Is this day and age we're used to having action figures and all sorts out in the shops a month or so at least before the film/show premieres. I can't even find any Mando tumbleweed! In some ways it feels a little like '77 all over again when no one knew the potential success story they had on their hands and so didn't have much more than a few pieces of related merchandise to offer. But at the same time, what the ****, Disney! The excitement and anticipation for Mando has arguably outstripped that for Rise Of Skywalker and it seems like Disney have been caught slipping. This is probably symptomatic of the changing of the guard that is needed in the leadership at Lucasfilm and, to be honest, if you've been keeping up with all the production news and rumours and also reading between the lines, I think it's fairly clear that that is what is going on behind the scenes.
