I am for and against the move to ditch the line as it is, though i'm biased being an adult collector the 5poa movie line stuff does have a few pros'. One of the pros would be the vehicles that are widely available, some of which are not even done in the VC range. A good example of this would be the Enfys Nest speeder, its not bad at all and its reasonably priced to boot, yet its not available in the VC range whilst the figure itself is. I couldn't stand the earlier movie lines ie Rogue one an so on due to the abundance of really weird junk crammed in, nerf weapons as well? No thank you, but I'm biased being an adult.
The movie line itself isn't vanishing, just changing to 5inch (ewww). Id of really liked Hasbro to move back to the lines we had for clone wars and so on, the variety was amazing. Maybe the movie will free up room on the production line for the vintage collection and black series, might even increase distribution. yeah ok thats wishful thinking and makes to much sense for a company to do. :lol:
Just a disjointed side note, whilst I loathed the older toy lines the more recent Solo carded (yellowish front) I liked, much less clutter the font and layout was spot on and the figures themselves are rather nice. Even the paint applications are good, have a look at them and compare them to the slightly older lines and you'll see what I'm referring to.
