First look at the sweet new 'Rogue One' Star Wars toys coming out
In 76 days, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story premieres in U.S. theaters. Disney and Lucasfilm have already released several trailers, which we've watched countless times to extract as much as we can from every second of footage shown. As part of its global UGC contest called #GoRogue, Disney sent over a box full of upcoming Rogue One action figures and toys for Mashable to check out. (Disclosure: Disney didn't sponsor or pay us to get excited about the toys, we're just geeks and huge Star Wars fans so the gushing came naturally.) The #GoRogue contest invites Star Wars fans to create their own Rogue One fan video for a chance to win an advance screening of the movie at Lucasfilm in San Francisco and have their video played before the special private screening. Since we're Mashable, we had to take things to Facebook Live for a live unboxing experience: Mashable Chief Correspondent Lance Ulanoff and I did our best to get the toys open as quickly as possible, but the Disney Store Elite Series proved somewhat challenging with all the twisty ties shackling the figures' limbs down. Once open however, we ogled at each die-cast Elite Series figure had. These are some of the most detailed $27 figures we've seen. Standing them up on a table was difficult; they kept falling over and the plastic bases they come with didn't really keep them propped up very well. The $20 Black Series action figures are plastic and made by Hasbro. The detailing — particularly in the faces — isn't quite as nice as the ones on the Elite Series, but we did notice some of them like the new K-2SO droid had more points of articulation than the slightly pricier Elite Series. I'm not a huge fan of the Pop bobble head figures. They're cool, but just not for me. What excited me the most was probably the $80 659-piece Lego U-Wing ship. Because Lego. We didn't have time to unbox and build it, but we'll be back in a future Facebook Live to do just that. But for now, feast your eyes on these Rogue One toys. It's maddening that the toys are available before the movie.Cassian Andor
