Disney Ewok Plush Baskets and a Great Article on the Fierceness of Ewoks

So I had posted about one of these sets a few years ago (2016):  E is for Ewoks but I never posted the second set. After watching Return of the Jedi with my daugther, we pulled down the two baskets for some photos. Each one of these is about 9 inches tall. 

If you still don't like Ewoks, I recommend reading this great article from an Army officer who calls them the most tactically proficient fighting force in the Star Wars galaxy.

Marvel Legends Retro Wave 2

Didn't find these out in the wild - preordered the set from BBTS.  I am really digging these. Hoping for more X-Men. Wave 2 included Spider-Man, Human Torch, Carol Danvers, Magneto and Hulk, along with a repacked Captain America.

Wave 2 loose.


Wave 1 and 2 loose.

Marvel Legends - Ladies of House of X - Moira, Omega Sentinel, Marvel Girl

Moira MacTaggert was on my wish list for a long time. Would be nice to see a Rose Byrne version as well - along with others from the X-Men movies. Still, great to have her. While there is already a Marvel Girl version of Jean Grey in the Marvel Legends line, you can't ever have enough Jean Grey. I know nothing about the Omega Sentinel, but she looks really bad ass. I didn't pick up any of the dudes in this set, because there are plenty of them available in previous series and in different costumes. The price point these days makes it unwieldy to get the whole set. I need a great BAF to get me to commit.
