Hasbro's Black Series 6" Figure Line

Yup, Target & TRU seem to be getting more of them. Hopefully not so many that it'll impede wave 2.

 

And I realized something tonight. The first of these 6" figures I bought was X-Wing Luke. My very first SW figure ever back in 1979 or 1980? X-Wing Luke! Talk about coming full circle.

I've seen these nowhere but at Target so far, and the Target I went to over the weekend had a ton.

 

I've got everyone now but just got around to reviewing Luke: Star Wars Black Luke review

 

Does this Luke make anyone else want Luke in the Snowspeeder outfit? I know it's pretty similar, but I love that outfit!

No, not yet. It's just so similar X-Wong pilot, when they do make it, there's probably going to be 95% parts re-use. Do it farther down the road and get some variety out there now.

I agree- they definitely need to wait a year or two, but I imagine he'd have a hooded head as well (with visible Wampa scars!).

R2 is the most common and Sandtrooper the least common but truth is I have seen all 4 multiple times at multiple stores. I hope its because stores are just stocking them well and that its not because they aren't selling.

Round here were not doing too bad for figs...I've spotted plenty to go around & on Saturday there was even a Sandtrooper at TRU which is odd cause they go quick there.....at a few targets there were plenty of all figs to go round as well.....Sandtroopers still available on the shelves here in Phoenix area....

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm a huge Star Wars fan, and...I still haven't bought any of these! I think I read somewhere in a review that the plastic on them is soft and rubbery, and that, paired with the price, has scared me away. What do you guys think? Is the plastic soft in-hand, or did I just read a review by a picky reviewer?

I didn't really notice anything wrong with the quality of the plastic.

Plastic is fine, these are great figures, probably the best you will ever see Hasbro make. You should go watch the reviews on JediInsider.

My Sandtrooper blaster likes to bend but not nearly as bad as 8" Lion-O's eye of thundera......he must've left it near his hairdryer again.....but other than that this fig rocks!! DB these figs are awesome & all the kool kids are getting them....at least buy a Sandtrooper test drive it, set him on your computer desk & if you don't suddenly have the urge to tell him these aren't the droids he's looking for for....shove it back in the box carefully and take it back, or give it to toys for 30 somethings(its a new non-profit I'm starting up this halliday season)....I'll get you the address for my charity if you don't find yourself in like-like you status w/the Sandtrooper......cmon all the kids are doing it man.....smile10.gifsmile10.gifsmile10.gif
