Didn't Disney bungle the merchandising for Star Wars Ep 7 though, with having nearly no Rei merch early on?

She was left out of some of the group sets though. Note that was very obviously corrected for Rogue One.AliasMan02 said:israeliag said:

It was overstated, but there was some of that. Lots of claims weren't true, like that Rey didn't have an action figure in wave one.
Had they made a toy in just her scavenger gear, what would it have spoiled?hurleyag said:
Wasn't that more because of spoilers?
While there's some argument to be made for being secretive, we saw Rey in the first teaser trailer a year out from TFA's release.AliasMan02 said:
There was a time they were being super secretive about Rey, and toys go into production waaaaaaay early, which is why there are Cloud City Luke and Vader action figures in wave one, as they appeared in an earlier version of the script.
Not saying that's why, but at least at one point they were being pretty sketch about it.

Doug Liman has bailed on Gambit and JLD now, so I won't get my hopes up for whatever big project he signs onto next. That said, JLD felt like a "someday" project from the moment it was announced. Director, general idea, no fit in the current film slate; fast forward 8 months and it's no surprise that it's back to square one.
