Star Wars: The Last Jedi Toys Are STILL On Shelves 6 Years Later 

Time passes, seasons change, Rey remains on shelves

Disney is committed to losing money

A New Hope was the first film I saw in the cinema and when the toys and merchandise came out was wanting everything. My parents weren’t rich but every time I passed a test my mum would take me to the toy shop. Nostalgic times…..

The reason why you couldn't find Rose Tico is because EVS bought them all.

Sad how they could kill a brand in a few years.

I'm always up for these Star wars still on the shelf videos!

In the Rey timeline, there are no Jedi. Grogu has to be dead. There are no Mandalorians. No sign of Mandalore restored, no darksaber. No Thrawn. No Moff Gideon, no death troopers. Nothng. Rey is "every Jedi ever" and that's it. Rey's timeline is the death of Star Wars. It wipes out the galaxy and replaces it with zero.

God this is so sad. I remember when I was a kid during episodes 2 and 3, the toys were FLYING off the shelves, and me and my friends were the main culprits!!! Bruh this a sad state of affairs indeed

Unbelievable. Even the prequel toys sold (within reason) Star Wars merch is some of the most historic of movie merch. Or at least it was until Disney (a billion dollar corporation) ran it into the ground.

Rian Johnson: "My MoViE iS PeRfEcT. ThErE aRe nO cRiTiCiSmS!" Jeff Hicks: *shows evidence of toys from his movie rotting on discount store shelves and no one buying them six years later* #IHaveSpoken

Long after the apocalypse, those Last Jedi toys will still be there.

I’ve started seeing Star Wars and Disney toys unopened in stores like Goodwill and Savers. My guess is that retail stores are clearing their inventory to put in inventory that sells.

A shocking display of obvious racism and sexism from all the children who never asked Santa to bring them a Reva figure for Christmas.

What I love about this is the fact that Di$ney have created space toys that sit on dime store shelves watching every other toy be sold. Kathleen Karen Kennedy _IS_ Stinky Pete, and this is her revenge.

What's odd is the ship designs for Lightyear looked cool enough, I just refused to even pick up the package because of the movie source no matter how neat a vehicle or ship looked.

Rey remains so unpopular with the fans that Disney is putting her back front and center in their future _Star Wars_ projects. They believe that by shoving her down our throats as much and as long as possible, they can _MAKE_ us all love her through sheer overexposure. That, or they really do just want to lose more money. The Mouse cannot bleed out fast enough.

You know I certainly don't remember by the time the Prequels ended and shit like Clone Wars came out still seeing merch from Phantom Menace or Attack of the Clones still rotting on the shelves. Regardless of what people's views on that trilogy are the fact it could sell toys better then these movies really says a lot.

I still have my Star Wars toys from 78-83 some unopened. My children have zero interest in these and I don’t blame them. I doubt today’s children will save these Star Wars toys for 40 plus years. Such a shame what Disney did to Star Wars 🤷🏻‍♂️🍻

How? Just... how!? How have those things not been shipped to the same place they send the t-shirts and hats of the Super Bowl losing teams every year? Do they not want them, either? They are a KK legacy!

If you want a complete toy set of movie, at least people have this opporunity.

I’d sneak some dot stickers on the back of these boxes then check six months later to see if the same figures are still there.

I forget who said it on RU-vid. Maybe it was Critical Drinker. But it was something like "name a stand-out line or exchange in Disney Star Wars that made it into pop-culture. The only toy or collectible was "Baby Yoda"... and that was because he looks like... YODA. Disney has FAILED in every sense of the word failure.

I was just in my local Ollie's yesterday and saw the same thing. There were TLJ coloring books and storybooks by the dozens.

Remember the days when they couldn't keep them on the shelves? Pepperidge Farms Remembers!

Disney’s arrogance knows no bounds, they will double, triple down on their garbage trilogy simply to feed their egos. Lots of plastic for the landfill….

Another problem Disney has with Star Wars products is that outside of the toy aisle, LITERALLY everything Star Wars is Baby Yoda. At Target we have a BY Chia pet. All T-shirts, both children and adults, are about BY. In party supplies, the plates, napkins, wrapping paper, stickers, and tablecloths are all about BY. There is a BY toothbrush and toothpaste. The bedsheets all feature BY, along with BY cuddle pillows. There are no other characters to be found, although we may get a Mandalorian helmet here and there. It is borderline ridiculous. Where are the Luke, Leia, and Vader themed products? Disney spent 4 billion dollars to turn Star Wars into a baby franchise.

Keep these videos coming I laughed myself to sleep No wonder Hasbro is bankrupt looking at these peg warmers

I find it hilarious that Disney wants to still pursue the sequel trilogy even though it caused so much unsold goods

I was, for over 30 years, a huge Star Wars fan. Then I saw The Last Jedi. I've never seen the last movie in the Disney trilogy and I won't.

As a retail worker who spends a large part of my day cleaning messes people make with the stock... I just hope you put everything back where it belongs.

Having grown up in the 90s, the quality drop that I see in toys now versus back then is astounding. The plastic in toys now, is as cheap if not cheaper than the toys that were offered in McDonalds happy meals back then.

The scary thing for Disney concerning these toys (and future financial success) is the fact that now mostly adults collect them.

So cool that the Last Jedi was such a hit that they're still producing toys of that movie even today!

Disney is the tip of the spear for ESG. They don’t care, it’s the message that’s most important.

I'm old enough to remember the original Kenner Star Wars figures being peg warmers in the 1980s as well. You could buy big discounted figure bags of like 10 uncarded figures for £5 in Woolworths.

Similar thing here in UK, last week I was in BM bargains with my son looking at the toys section, pegs full of force awakens and last Jedi figures as well as lightyear toys 😂😂 funny how Disney have cheapened and ruined the whole brands

Slave 1....dangerous, mysterious, badass. Firespray....the effect of too much bad Taco Bell.

Haha I’m surprised they still let him in to Ollie’s 🤣

I’d love to see more Cara Dune merchandise! Strong female charac… OH WAIT. 😭 Nice move there, Disney.

I would not even be surprise if there is still toys base on the Disney live action remakes such as the 2019 Lion King still sitting on the shelves (In fact I saw LOTS of Lightyear vehicles toys from Mattel at the dollar tree the other day!)

Surprised you didn't call out the full pegs of Shang-Chi. That film saved lives, you know. Also, the sculpt on that Black Series Reva is ass. Holy cow.

TLJ and the whole ST is a cautionary tale on what not to do to a franchise.

Was in Japan at the end of last year and saw Star Wars figures for sale in Tokyo. Rey was the cheapest of them all, being sold for the equivalent of $3.50 USD.

If they would have made a real buzz lightyear with tim allen as the voice it would have made a ton of money.

Imagine "Where's Waldo?" but with Rae. It's just a page full of Rae and there's randomly a Baby Yoda buried in the scene somewhere with Rae's around it trying to hog up the spotlight

Can't understand why Hasbro is laying people off.

Anything that is bad for Disney can only be good news!

It’s crazy I just sold a black series Hunter Bad Batch figure for $175, a hot toys death trooper for $700... and I can’t sell any TLJ figures for even less than retail. (Stock I had from BEFORE the movie came out)

If I had seen those two Empire strikes back figures I would have bought one each. But they never seem to get to the uk. The sequel stuff can stay there for all I care :)

Since they dug the Atari ET carts out of the landfill, I think there's room to move them to "long term storage".

This is hilarious, it proves just how unliked TLJ is no matter how they try to spin it.

Maybe they keep those unsold Last Jedi toys up on the shelves so you can drop by and be like, "Huh, they're still here"

The only toys I still have as a 40 year old are the Star Wars action figures I had when I was about 8-10..

I used to work in a toy shop and I am not kidding about this, for about six months after Rise of Skywalker first released in cinema's; I saw this older man come in and search the SW toys for a C-3PO figure every week and would loudly complain because he couldn't find one, we stocked the funko pop of the droid but with the red eyes and he would go off on how C-3PO doesn't have red eyes nor a red arm, but we'd tell him that's how he appears in the most recent film but he only wanted a classic original trilogy figure.

In Ukraine, in my own experienc, no one cares for Last Jedi, only original and second trilogy.

I like going to Ollie's and finding old toys. Reminds me of KB Toys.

2:43 I would buy them classic star trek action figures if I was to see them in shops near me.

This never gets old.

Toy stores should be rewarded for preserving ancient prehistoric items instead of selling these items.

Seeing all the toys are from Hasbro. I wonder what they gonna do to Power Rangers?

Coincidentally, I also found a few TLJ and SOLO figures at my local toy store IN JAPAN, lol.

I legit have no idea who DJ is. I used to to feel bad for Hasbro being stuck with this dead license, but then they tried to steal people's content for D&D and laugh at them burning.

Starscream in the chair is a rip. I got the earthrise one, which is the same one without the chair.

You know, I have watched several of these videos and I noticed that TMNT toys are almost never shown and when they are, people seem to be buying them. The reason why I bring this up is because TMNT like Marvel and Star Wars was gobbled up by a huge multimedia conglomerate which is Viacom in this case. While they have made some missteps with the TMNT franchise(if you wanna call the 2014 and 2016 film missteps), Viacom seems to have gotten good returns on the franchise. For example, many recent Marvel games over the past few years have been huge flops while Shredder's Revenge sold a million copies in a week. My point to all this is how TMNT and Disney's franchises have been treated in recent years. The Turtles aren't being gender swapped, popular legacy characters aren't getting pushed to the side in favor of less popular newcomers, political ideology is not being shoved down our throats. While with Disney the polar opposite is happening and it's turning off their fans who aren't buying merchandise based on IPs that are going out of their way to turn off the fan base. Disney bought some of the most popular franchises on Earth and due to a combination of bad decisions have somehow turned franchises that print money into stuff that people don't want if it's free. Maybe this is a lesson to be learned.

Shit I still see crap from the Force Awakens rotting in some stores. There's a reason why toy companies barley release new merch based off the Sequels anymore. Hell making toys out of stuff from the old discontinued Expanded Universe sells better then anything from the ''offical'' canon.

Seeing a video like this from WCB is like GnR doing welcome to the jungle. A crowd pleaser!

Seeing these videos makes me think of the Bill Murray SNL bit "Star Wars, nothing but Star Wars."

Who would have thought that the time would come when Buzz lightyear would become Toy Story Prospector!

Just like movies aren't supposed to be fun anymore and, instead, carry a message of diversity and inclusion, so goes it with the toy industry. Gotta be politically correct, have more diverse representation and ensure that the line appeals just as much to little girls as it does to little boys. And this amazing strategy gives us toys no one wants and a toy industry on the verge of collapse. Well done.

Blade builders are excellent peg warmers

The Carrie doll the Billie doll you still can’t find them in stores YOU GETTING THESE ON DHELF is a miracle

The way you said "A Reva, a Reva..." Sounded like Speedy Gonzalez :D

I’m not defending the movie but in the UK there are warehouses full of stock that are selling for cheap. Granted, it’s mainly Kenobi and Mando figs but still, I guess Hasblow expected the toys to sell like hotcakes

Holy crap... I would have thought most of that would have gone through the wood chipper by now. Makes me wonder what kind of deal these second hand stores have going on.

I have to wonder how much of this is due to brand damage to Star Wars due to TLJ and onward, and how much of it is due to the action figure market overall shrinking. I get the impression (though haven't researched) that the collector market is not growing.

I'm glad to see that Classic Star Trek toys are still available.

I expect more Rose Tico!! we need a Rose Tico toy tower, biggest in the world 🤣

So much plastic waste, an astounding misusage of resources

Wait till the little mermaid remake toys hit

I think it's a result of over-merchandising. Ya kids want toys, but realistically are parents going to by the same toy for each new movie that comes out? Likely not, maybe for one or two but not all. Plus they look cheap as FVCK. That Rey toy, the head looks... well cheap.

Best toys are from when I grew up…80’s! Imagine walking into a fully stocked Toys r Us in 1986. Kid heaven.

Jyn Erso is from rouge one.

As a white person I am proud to call Samuel L Jackson a master, as jedi, as an actor, as a black man. Anyway, Reva sucks. And Slave 1 became Firespray...? I missed that. Clearly an insult to fans. Not that star wars doesn't have dumb names but still...

Play the death star trash compactor scene. But replace our heroes with all the new Disney garbage. Then switch scenes to C3P0 putting down the communicator, R2D2 says who was that? C3P0 says wrong number.

You know Jyn Erso was from Rogue One

I remember when. I was 16 at a comic book convention many many moons ago. I noticed one stand had stacks of toys and memorabilia through the years. Millennium Falcon and many other rare toys. One that caught my eye was this Robin Hood playset. When I asked why that was there he revealed a nice bit of info. The Robin Hood movie used the ewok playsey mold and accessories. It's a way toy companies would save money if something was similar. So the same ewok forest set mold was still being used at how popular the original star wars toys were. Since they used it previously to continuously print star wars toys. Was being repurchased after its run to a new playset.

Rey looks so sad in the box with her neck snapped.

I once found Angry Birds erasers being sold in Ollies back in 2022. I am surprised they still have them.

Long gone are the days when a star wars figure in its unopened package was a hot commodity... heck I still get excited when I see something in box from the power of the force or Revenge of the Sith still in package... even when it is something like a mustafar sentry droid or an nameless rebel soldier... Times are different but Disney corp surely worked tirelessly to remove all the value the star wars brand had

"Slave One" OHMYGODIAMSOTRIGGERED! I am so sensitive and frail! My entire sensibility has come crashing down

Seeing Starscream sit on the shelf makes me sad.

Said it before, you tell how successful a franchise is by the merchandise they sell, toys, action figures, t-shirts, hats, bed sheets, current franchises sell little cause people don't buy stuff from IPs they don't like. Even the OG Star Wars made billions more off merchandise than all gross ticket sales from all 3 movies combined.

I love Jyn Erso. Kinda sad she's forgot on a shelf :/

One thing I miss the most is the Micromachine Star Wars ships. They brought them back for The Force Awakens, then never again. As lazy as most of the ship designs were in the sequel trilogy, it still would've been cool to have little Micromachine toys of them. Only recently have I noticed they've brought back the larger Micromachine ships and vehicles with the little micro-guy that fits in the cockpit, but that's all I've seen.

Where them Rose Tico's at?!? 😂

Di$ney, the franchise Destroyer!!!

I'm surprised these didn't all sell out long ago *They make great plinking targets*

Here in Virginia at Ollie’s it’s the same, packed out with Rey. Also at Target and Walmart after Christmas they are packed out with Buzz Lightyear figures. I think that’s the reason why Marvel Legends figures went up in cost, to make up for these failed IPs.

I recently checked Lego sets for the sequel movies and they aren’t sold out and they only cost a bit more than the original price while sets of clone wars and the original trilogy sell mostly really well. Sets with clones sell out fast like the 501st Battlepack more than I ever have seen. I didn’t have any issues with supply, but directly after I bought mine it was sold out and that doesn’t happen often with new sets for my Amazon. Disney should just produce more of the characters the fans will love and produce a few of the side characters just in case the characters gets popular and then produce more of the character if the figures sell well. If they produce less then they will not lose that much money.

The one constant about Disney woke wars product is that it is constantly clogging discount,thrift,and closeout store toy aisles everywhere.
