honestly it fuckin BLOWS MY MIND that they really tried to play it off that they thought kylo ren would be the most popular character. kylo ren who murders one of our generations childhood heroes. like ???? shut the fuck up dude are u serious !!!! who are you marketing to?? you really thought people were gonna rush to buy kylo ren merch when we have 3 new heroes? i literally do not understand the logic. like i get that vader is a huge cultural icon but kylo ren just. isnt developed enough in this movie to have an immediate impact as influential as darth vader did as a character. like im sorry but its such bullshit that i can find a fuckin kylo ren cuddle buddy on amazon but i cant find a single rey figure in stores anywhere or online that isnt ridiculously overpriced.why the FUCK would i want to cuddle with that punk ass bitch
and this “kylo ren is the Coolest” excuse still doesnt explain away the fact that they have falcon sets with poe, who literally never sets foot on the falcon for the entire movie,and not have one with rey, who LITERALLY PILOTS THE SHIP and is implied as the new owner of the damn ship!!!! and why does the force awakens figure set have two rando stormtroopers when they could’ve so easily put in phasma & rey???? like what is the excuse???? there is none you all know why rey is excluded from merch.
its the same reason gamora was excluded and the same reason natasha was literally replaced by cap on the motorcycle
