Kylo Ren rules, actually, but he's not "cool" in a marketing sense like Boba Fett or Vader. He's still a better character than Fett and Vader in A New Hope.

Yeah, the marketing people majorly blundered with TFA. They were looking at what characters were popular with the adult fans after decades of watching the films, not who were the big identifiable fan favorites when the movies actually came out (you know, the mainstream good guys). I actually got a pair of pajama pants for xmas with Phasma and the flame trooper on them. They're fleece and warm af so I wear them all the time.

I watched TFA thrice, and I had to google who Phasma was.

The stormtrooper who shouts "traitor!" and fights Finn with the anti-Jedi baton is the real Boba Fett of the movie.

Cool design and gets chumped basically off screen? That's the new Boba Fett alright. Especially if they only flesh out her character in books and comics.

Well she's listed in the IMDB for episode 8, so maybe she somehow survived being thrown into a garbage chute on an exploding planet.

I heard the real reason there aren't many Rey toys is because they were delayed to later waves, so she could be bundled with her lightsaber without spoiling that its hers.

The premier was in Russian, so I went a few days later to watch it with voices that have emotions. Then a month or so later watched a camrip during the dinner because that was a really slow day. Also it is a really good movie, but this is not the place to discuss it, neither in particular nor in general.

This theory doesn't hold up in light of the fact that Luke had different versions for different outfits he wore in the original trilogy: Tattooine Luke, X-Wing Luke, Jedi Luke, etc etc. So they could have easily done a version of Rey without a saber because movie reasons. Pretty sure they just (erroneously) thought A- action figure buying nerdboys wouldn't give a poo poo about a female lead character and B - girls don't like science fiction (or buy nerd toys) and that's it. So simple stupidity/sexism, basically.

Like, ‘it’s too old. It’s too old for our audience, and it has to be younger. It has to be funnier.’ And that’s when I watch the first couple of episodes of Teen Titans Go!, it’s like those are the wacky moments in the Teen Titans cartoon, without any of the more serious moments. ‘Let’s just do them all fighting over pizza, or running around crazy and everything, ’cause our audience—the audience we wanna go after, is not the Young Justice audience any more. We wanna go after little kids, who are into—boys who are into goofy humor, goofy random humor, like on Adventure Time or Regular Show. We wanna do that goofy, that sense of humor, that’s where we’re going for.’”

Several people who worked for Marvel and Disney were vocal in their complaints about the lack of toys feature the women characters in both Force Awakens and Avengers 2. It's safe to say Disney's higher ups neglected the market for their own reasons.

Toy contracts are no loving joke.
