They're undeniably cute, but I could get the same value out of looking at a photo of them as I could from owning them, so I managed not to buy any. They were clearly a hit, though, because the line is still going today.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/swbc7lc1.jpg\" title=\"Loth-cat (shown twice actual size)\" width=\"370\" height=\"400\" align=right style=\"margin:6px 0px 0px 10px\">After five series (meaning 30 different unique Baby Yodas), the line finally branched out in Series 6 to include some other characters: R2-D2, BD-1, and two versions of L0-LA59. Now Series 7 goes even further, giving us BB-8, Chopper, Baby Ahsoka, and a Loth-Cat.<\/p>\n<p>Loth-cats were introduced to <i>Star Wars<\/i> fans during <i>Rebels<\/i>, and to the rest of the normies during <i>Ahsoka<\/i>. Native to the planet Lothal (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/swrebbseb.php\">Ezra's<\/a> homeworld), Loth-cats are exactly what they sound like: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=F_lwJbsWNr4\" target=\"yt\" rel=\"noopener\">cats in space<\/a>. They're mostly feral, living in the wild, though some have been domesticated and kept as pets.<\/p>\n<p>The <i>Bounty Collection<\/i> toys don't pretend to be in scale with anything else - even each other. Given Loth-cats' average size on the various shows (a little larger <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/swbc7lc2.jpg\" title=\"grr! hiss! spit!\" width=\"200\" height=\"220\" align=left style=\"margin:9px 15px 0px 0px\">than an average house cat), this ~3\" long figurine would need to be put with... 10\" figures? So <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/s7ani1yak.php\">1:7 scale<\/a>. Basically nothing. You don't get this because you want to put it with other toys, you get it because you want a cute little kitty that's not available in any other way.<\/p>\n<p>The Loth-cat is depicted in its species' usual posture of aggression: head down, ears back, scaly legs splayed, teeth bared, and tail swishing to the side. Judging by the colors, this is meant to be Murley, Sabine's pet; it's light grey, with a darker patch on its head, tan ears that speckle up to brown at the tips, and brown spots on its back and stripes on its tail.<\/p>\n<p><i>The Bounty Collection<\/i> is not sold blind-boxed, so you can always tell what you're getting when you pick one up. If you want the Loth-cat (or any of the other cute little things), all you need to do is look for the box with their picture on it and you'll be set.<\/p>\n<div class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Posts\"><H5>&lt;i&gt;And now, some more OAFEry:&lt;\/i&gt;<\/H5><ul class=\"entry-meta\"><li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"ATFC '11 - Day 1: Hasbro\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2011\/02\/atfc-11-day-1-hasbro\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">ATFC '11 - Day 1: Hasbro<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Star Wars: Creating Adventure\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2022\/07\/star-wars-creating-adventure\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Star Wars: Creating Adventure<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Darth Skeletor\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2011\/12\/darth-skeletor\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Darth Skeletor<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Rustin's Spoils of the Week #48\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2012\/01\/rustins-spoils-of-the-week-48\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Rustin's Spoils of the Week #48<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Mattel's stupid SDCC 2018 plan\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2018\/06\/mattels-stupid-sdcc-2018-plan\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Mattel's stupid SDCC 2018 plan<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2020, to cash in on the public's love of Baby Yoda, Hasbro introduced The Bounty Collection, a series of six unarticulated vinyl figures of the little fella in various poses, done in a cartoony style.
