Zack Snyder has released his latest film on Netflix, Rebel Moon. He originally pitched his idea of this story to Lucasfilm many years ago as a Star Wars movie. Lucasfilm ultimately declined to move forward with the pitch, so Zack Snyder took it to Netflix were it was produced as a two-part movie. The first half has been released and, boy, are we thankful this isn't a Star Wars movie. In addition to our film review, we continue to hark on Hasbro and the executives making millions of dollars while thousands of their employees are laid off. Glen and Jason also discuss the latest Star Wars news, their pickups from over the holiday, and so much more! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/smugglersgalaxy/message

Hasbro, the Providence-based toy maker of the Star Wars action figure line, has announced mass layoffs due to inflation and sluggish sales. Is that the only reason for the downturn in business? Could it be the constant barrage of repacks and repaints on multiple toy lines in an effort to keep costs down? Is the reliance of consumers buying without thinking about the price tag really the best strategy? On this episode of the Smugglers’ Galaxy Podcast, Glen and Jason dissect this news and try to decipher its meaning. Nearly a year ago, Hasbro announced a new strategy to push prices and double their profit margins - was that a step too far? As they discuss what this means, it’s important to remember 1,100 people are losing their livelihood. We as collectors have a passion for Star Wars action figures, but it’s not the most important thing in the world. It’s not the best of times right now… especially before the holidays. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/smugglersgalaxy/message
