Force Friday hopes/predictions

Postby BryanWalter85 » Tue Jul 18, 2017 11:48 am

Hi all,

I know it's still pretty early, but what new Pop! figures do you think we'll get on Force Friday this year?

Since we got the BTS video at D23, I'm really hoping for 2 variants of Finn. One as the Resistance Pilot and another in the undercover First Order uniform.

I am hoping for more Vintage Kenner style Pop! like the Cantina set to celebrate 40 years.

I think we'll definitely see EP8 Pops and Dorbz. Pretty sure that's how it worked last year.

As unlikely as it is, I'd love to see expanded universe characters get the Pop treatment!

No. BB-9E is an official canon character who will be making his debut in The Last Jedi.

Aw. I was wondering about that. Me, I prefer the classic legends better.

I'm hoping for new molds of the trio of heroes, a scarred Kylo Ren, and Laura Dern's character. I'm a sucker for purple hair.

If only Lucasfilm/Disney would let that fly! I doubt they'd even allow the original one to be made as a chase

I'm hoping there isn't an overwhelming number of Pops I consider must-haves thrown at me all at once, but considering this is Force Friday, I know for a fact that will happen. lol It will easily be my most expensive Pop hunt of the year, and possibly the most expensive Pop hunt of my life, until Force Friday 2019 comes around. lol (I'm expecting a smaller selection for 2018.)

I'm looking forward to getting more Pops of Rey the most, but I hope there aren't too many of her. I'm trying to have a complete collection of her Pops. The only SW character I do that for. I'm also looking forward to BB9E, a scarred Kylo, and Benicio Del Toro's character, DJ.

For those hoping for OT, PT, or Legends characters, you will have to wait a little longer. Force Friday will only have Pops for the new movie. There are never exceptions.

I could have sworn that earlier this year, they teased that a Rebels Wave 2 was coming, but I've seen nothing even hinting at such since then.

I missed that one. I wonder if they would have that ready by Sept or if it would be after the last season is underway.

I'm sure it would be almost exclusively The Last Jedi pops, but I really hope we see and normal version of the new SDCC Leia sculpt soon.

Yes!!!! That would be amazing!


I'll be honest, after doing my research, I legitimately think that BB droids are some of my favorites in the entire Star Wars franchise. I'd love to see multiple colored variants of the same mold like they did with the R2s and line them all up along a shelf. So yes, please, BB-9E 100%.

I really wish they would have given us Jabba's Palace! Lando in that SB box. Maybe one day they'll make one.

We're definitely going to see Pops for The Last Jedi, along with the Tie Fighter Pilot and Kylo Tie Figher Deluxe Pops. Other than that, I'm secretly hoping we'll see some Prequel Pops but I won't get my hopes up.
