I'm still debating with myself whether to watch the trailer that will surely come on Force Friday or not. I just don't want to spoil myself anything more from the movie

Knowing JJ the trailer won't give away a lot of the plot but just enough to satisfy everyone

The action figure leak is really exciting, because I've been collecting them FOREVER.  Some of these are not from the new movie, though, right? I mean... Boba Fett isn't going to be in the new movie, and both Luke Skywalker figures are from when he was younger. Plus, as far as we know, aside from the burnt helmet and probable references to him, Darth Vader won't be in it either.... Anyways, hoping this isn't all of them, being that, aside from Chewbacca, none of the other Original Trilogy characters have action figures from the new film yet.
As for Luke... I have to be honest, I'm not impressed. Everyone predicted that's what he was going to look like, and it's not a good look. It's hard to take him seriously. I was surprised by what they did with Carrie Fisher for her Princess Leia costume, because I had doubts she'd be able to pull off the appearance again. I was hoping that would be the case with Luke, too. Oh, well... I still think it's going to be an incredible movie. I'm so excited! Only 4 months!

Yeah they are doing figures for people who were part of the OT, in addition to the figures they are going to do for TFA.
I just wish they didn't ignore the PT though

Several sources are claiming that Han and Leia separated between the events of Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens, and that their first encounter in the new film is extremely awkward, although they eventually resume their bickering/flirting. Am I the only one that is going to be heartbroken if they're not still together in this movie?

That would be VERY annoying f
btw could you put infos/rumors under spoilers next time please

Okay, thanks! God, I'm literally going to be broke on Force Friday.... I'm going to spend so much money on all of this new merchandise.
It is a shame that the Prequel Trilogy gets the hate that it does because I really love those movies. They have their faults and they're nowhere near as good as the original films, but they get paid dust way too frequently.
Thanks for the link to the base. I kind of forgot about it! I had a tab for it always open on my computer, but no one ever posted in it, so I stopped checking it out. Hopefully more people will start posting in it soon with the new movie coming out!

Yeah, sorry.... I'll edit that right now. I didn't think I had to because it was just a rumor. I will, though!
Anyways... Yeah, they're honestly my favorite couple ever. I'm going to cry so hard throughout this entire movie regardless of what happens, but if it's an even remotely sad ending for characters I've grown up with like Luke, Leia, and Han, I'm going to DIE!

I really hope they release a Kylo lightsaber on Force Friday
I think we'll get our first official poster on Saturday and maybe a synopsis?

Hmmmmmm interesting that they kept young Luke action figures around. Wonder what that's about.
I think only him, Boba, and Vader are the only returning ones for this line no?

I think it's to do with the Legend line of action figures they're doing. I remember Darth Revan being the final one to be announced

So what are you guys buying?
I think I'm gonna get Aftermath, Lost Stars and Shattered Empire.
And from the current comics being released I'm reading everything, Star Wars, Kanan, Darth Vader, Princess Leia and Lando, but I haven't read anything really interesting so far.

Honestly, I don't know what I'm going to buy. I bought the Revenge of the Sith comic book adaptation, but I've never been really into the comics, and regardless, I want to wait to read these new ones until after the new movie comes out. I'm saving all of my money for the action figures because I know I will want all of those, or at least all of the important characters. Depending on what other stuff they release, I'm sure I'll pick up some other stuff, too.
I also want to pre-order tickets for the movie as soon as they're available using Fandango gift cards. Does anyone know how that works? I've never done it before, but I figure if I don't pre-order the tickets as soon as they're available, it's going to be impossible to see the movie the day it comes out.
