Is Forces of Destiny good?

New video is up! A topic that I felt very strongly about but which nobody asked for my hot take on.

Is Forces of Destiny good?

Comments

yknow i changed my display name back and don't particularly care so it's all good

Marissa Wilk

No but product and content marketing

WINGSPANTT

You make Toys?

Blue Corn

Why am I learning more about my profession from a Star Wars vlog than from the last conference I attended? hahaha 10/10

What child wouldn't want recreate the intense action of a Senate hearing with their favorite character actor Terrence Stamp!

I'm guilty of this in that I always want to get kids those imaginext castles and batcaves. When I was a kid I was ecstatic whenever a playset had a trapdoor. I got a lot of mileage out of trapdoor-related drama. Imaginext NEVER misses an opportunity for a trapdoor

She's hideous and her creator is a creepy spiteful man who hates Barbie because she won't go out with him

Jenny Nicholson

I saw him in a comic shop, laughed at him for a really long time, and used the fact that I was working on this video as an excuse to get him

lmao "dudes who have nieces", harsh.

I have to ask, did you buy the Chancellor Valorum specifically for this video, or did you already have him?

I was a baby theater kid and made all my barbies act out Shakespeare plays from a “Shakespeare for kids” book that made things easier to understand but didn’t sugarcoat things. My mom didn’t like it when I made Ophelia (the pregnant Midge doll) drown herself in the sink.

I loved that too! Seems like a topic for next month, thoughts on the old Arrested Development vs the new seasons.

Sean Kelly

Jenny, do you have any thoughts on the Lammily doll?

Who else wanted to splash into the invigorating feeling of pure, crisp water with the delicious taste of DASANI® after watching that video?

I appreciate this video because I am the aunt that buys stuff for her nieces and nephew that I would have loved as a kid but I know deep down that they won't appreciate. I kept the Wonder Woman and Batgirl monster high wanna be dolls I got for them a couple of years ago.

The game my friend and I played with our Barbies as a kid was called "Statue". We had the 'ugly' barbie as the statue and all the barbies and kens would be on a camping trip at a cabin and they'd make fun of statue. In the middle of the night while all the barbies and kens were sleeping, the 'ugly' statue barbie would come to life and kill them. We had extra barbie parts for dismembering. But dang, they all had some cool outfits on! That being said, Forces of Destiny was a fun idea that was executed poorly. I bought them, because I would have loved them as a kid and I'm stoked to buy merch with Leia/Rey/Padme/etc, but yea, Hasbro really missed the mark with these. I like your idea also, because I think way too often about how they all would interact in the same universe as pre-teens.

“Oh great, Jyn showed up...hope hope hope, that’s all she ever talks about. Wait...is that...SHE’S GOT A BATON! SHE’S Flailing!! RUN!!”

OMG! “...and comes Jyn Erso with the absolute brutal smack down”...Dying! I know on Twitter you were concerned about your energy but I think it totally worked for this video.

I feel like a baton could come in handy in a "you didn't invite me to the party" conflict. Then again, maybe that's why Jyn didn't get invited to begin with.

Ok I actually kind of dig these. I don't know if I'd play with these as a kid bc they read as country bumpkins to my city eyes but they're also sort of cute.

I'm waiting for a line of Star Wars-themed pony dolls: "Horses of Destiny."

I used to sew clothes for my dolls with my mom as a kid and the sculpted, twitching mess these dolls turned out to be made me shudder even as an adult. You're right, they had a poor grasp on how little girls play, which makes you wonder who the fk was the shotcaller on this project? The Kylo fashion upgrade was a good choice and he needs to be displayed.

This was really good and you are spot on about the "this kid I know loves them" defense. My daughter has them and likes playing with them (mostly, they go to school together), but she did not express any interest in them dolls until I started giving them to her. I have never seen her use the "squeeze their legs" action for anything. We don't have Kylo, but after seeing this video, I kind of want one to dress up as a farmer.

She's trying to bring the Holiday Special back!

She said Christmas instead of Life Day!! Muh continuity ruined!!

Blue Corn

Hop in my car, problem! Let me give you a lift!

Young_Scott

Nice Big reference.

Blue Corn

Can you please change my name from “Nicholas Ulanowski” to “Nick Ulanowski”? Thank you! 🙃

Nick Ulanowski

hate to be a bother but when i signed up i didn't realize the name i signed up with would immediately be used as my username. can you, in the future, list me as "m wilk" and not "marissa wilk"? thanks!

Marissa Wilk

This video answered the question of whether Kylo and Leia wear socks under their boots and I gotta say, I could've expected Kylo would be the kind of grandfather-worshipping freak to go for the blister-inducing, sweat-soaked hell that is the sockless boot experience, but I expected better from his mom. She is a princess, dangit.

Shaun Cheah

Kylo Ren is a never nude. That is one of the most brilliant things I have ever heard. Thank you Jenny.
