From the beginning of Star Wars toys, Kenner had this weird fixation on the Mos Eisley Cantina scene. And this is a trend that will follow through every Star Wars toy maker. Seriously, I can’t tell you how many times Hasbro has released a new cantina alien. They’ve done like 30+ and there’s still more they can do. Every single character, even those in the background for a second are considered when making figures. And this goes beyond Hasbro, artisan toy makers like The Next 17 and Stan Solo have also made their own cantina aliens that Kenner never made. For a scene almost entirely devoid of action, where characters just stand around and drink, it sure gets a lot of toys.

It’s comfy. Having a bunch of characters hanging out at a bar is fun, I guess, and oldfags remember the scene fondly. Not sure why you’d need all the background aliens, but I get the appeal of having a bar for your toys.

It's one of the most iconic scenes in the original movie. Until the Cantina, we didn't really get a feel for how diversely populated the Star Wars galaxy was. We only saw humans, armored soldiers, droids, and a couple of covered up midgets and natives. As soon as we get into Mos Eisley, everything opens up. George knew this which is why he wanted to throw in additional shots for it after they got back to LA from filming in London.

-First real "Holy shit... different aliens, everywhere" scene in like ANY movie before it.
--Coziness. Stress from buying toys. Stress from storing toys. Stress from displaying toys. SO, just like you'd see with cute coomer girl toys, ...a simple place. Maybe an arcade, maybe a diner, maybe a quiet armory, a bedroom, a bar or even an office setting... ...It's just "nice" to have a place for action figures to "chill" and be normal, away from overly dramatic fight poses or standing all rigid, cramped, single-file like they're having to be bothered with a school-photo group shot or "team" pic your boss at work demands you take.

Go to your new marvel gay toys, the adults are speaking

I mean clearly people want cantina stuff, they almost hit the final tier for the haslab cantina that was like $500.

I mean it’s a nicer way of saying custom figure makers

because despite being space movies with aliens like 80% of the aliens you see in the entire original trilogy are in this bar, jabba's palace or his sail barge.

ya fucking cunt beat me to it

>>11452074 (OP)
Because aliens are cool dipshit. The reason why star wars sucks ass now is in part because theres barely any alines in it anymore and by extension they barely make any background aliens as toys anymore-which were the best figures to buy in old star wars collections that hasbro and kenner made

Retrospam?

The fans are doing the best work.

Was it the same for Jabba's Palace?

One way or the other, it seems like some of you just MUST be a victim.
If I take the time to fully flesh out the product and get Q/A right....I'm a scammer not sending you product. Ask Facebook.
If I send what I have...I'm a hack sending out crap product. Ask Youtube
I either NEVER give updates or I give too many!
What is your victims' narrative for today?? It's hard for me to keep track lately.
For less than 300 TOTAL Airwolf's (with roughly a 1/3rd of them already delivered), you people have made my life absolute hell.
For the love of God, I've literally had my children strip searched in my front yard because of one of you sick F*cks.... Do let us slow-clap for the heroes' of the internet!
Those who have received product and have been happy with it send me emails & IM's thanking me all the time yet DARE NOT speak a word in public because of the filth & toxicity on social media. Gee, I wonder why?
With all of that nonsense out of the way, I'm still here... chugging along. We're shipping kits as fast as we can produce & QC them. We're getting ourselves hyped up to begin releasing the completed & painted models. (Prototypes first THEN Kickstarter THEN Everyone else).
Our next update will be all about the Completed & Painted model being released. Despite it all, we are still excited to showcase the details & new additions to the model since the last major physical update.
On an unrelated note, I have to go now. My planet needs me.

I really wish this project would’ve happened, it looked solid.
