The Sandtrooper helmet just looks beautiful, a first for Hasbro, as they never seem to get the stormtrooper helmet right.

Bro, you ain't lying!! Finally a perfect Stormtrooper helmet!!!

I think I'll break down for a few of my favorite characters or outfits from the OT!! Biker Scouts are a must!! Imperial Troops, yup!! Tie Fighter Pilots, right again!!

The reality is, a lot of people are going to end up "breaking down" and buying "a few" figures from this line, whether or not they claim to be on the fence or "passing" right now. I'm not even going to kid myself. When we see these in stores, we're all gonna buy them.

Just got the pricelist for them. In europe they will be sold for 25euro thats 32usd a piece. Thats a huge difference. They are also announced for octobre around here. I hope thats not true because the 3 3/4 inch figures hit mostly a month after the US release.

I disagree pizza, you can't have all the main characters come out at once. I feel that's what Mattel did wrong with DCUC & MOTUC. I personally like their mix here, a couple core characters and then some background ones to fill it out.

This way, they can have at least 3-4 waves before most of the main characters are out... gives them time to plan this out and see how it goes. If they brought them all out in wave 1, then all we'd have were Lobots and scout troopers coming out, or a whole wave of cantina aliens... which will do okay, bit wont sell as well as the core characters.

Right now Maul is huge, just coming back on the big screen in 3D, bringing him back in the clone wars, I see nothing wrong with bringing him out right now.

I can't wait to see where this line goes, I personally wont be geting them all, but I'll be watching this line and can't wait to see future waves announced.

I Agree! SOTA put all the core characters out first for their street fighter line, which was one of the reasons the line was struggling during the end; by the time it reached wave 3, most of the core characters were made, hence sales being - it is not surprise wave 1 and 2 were the most profitable waves since they were mostly consist of core sf2 characters.

Well now there's this:





Posted at USA Today online.
Thanks Captain Vold for pointing this out.


Couldn't be happier with how it came out. Really, it's gorgeous. It's sorta a dream come true for a guy like me. I had to change my underpants.
Now I just have to wait for news of its regular release without Han, which I have no interest in.

[smokediver]

Jeez thats cool. I cant help but wonder how crazy the secondary market is gonna get with this since that is probly where I will end up having to get it...

New Star Wars Black 6" & 3.7" Listings Hit The Net

[SnTrooper]

The biggest surprise in that list: No Vader in the first three waves.
Greedo before Vader? Glad I didn't bet my left eye on that one.

[yojoebro82]

...and the first 6" Leia will be the one with the least clothes.

I'll be interested to see what the 6"ers look like.

Hasbro 6" Black Series - Series 2 Sneak Preview

Entertainment Earth has confirmed that Greedo will be in wave 2 and they will be showing images of the figure over the next month from "concept to final product".

I would say that this confirms Han to be in Wave 2 too.

I'm going to guess Anakin and Slave Leia are the other two.
