Hasbro's Black Series 6" Figure Line

[Bespin refugee]

2013 SDCC - Hasbro Panel (Images added)

Previews- Series 2: Boba Fett, Greedo, ANH Han Solo (comes w/ Stormtrooper belt, blaster rifle, & 'gloved' hands), Slave Leia

Coming Fall 2014 - Biker Scout w/ Speederbike

[CLAM]

Speederbike! that's awesome!

 

wave 2 figures look great too! count me in

[yojoebro82]

Han solo looking pretty good. And Greedo and Leia for that matter.

 

This is what I was expecting from a (pricey) 6" line. I like the fact that he comes with different belts and a mask. This eliminates the need for redos like "Death Star escape" Han which would have been essentially the same figure with a different belt. You could get away with that in a smaller scale, lower priced line, and they did. But no one wants to rebuy Han at $20 just because he has a Stormtrooper belt.

 

Too bad I have to save for a wedding.

I really can't wait to start getting some of these figures in hand...

[CLAM]

uh oh.. I didn't see close up pics before.. but it looks like we got our first crappy figure for the line... Slave Leai.

 

her awesome sculpt is completely ruined by the hideous cloth skirt thing. I don't understand why they didn't go with the soft plastic stuff that capes are made of. She looks stupid

Maybe so she can do something really crazy....like sit down

[JoeRhyno]

Darth Maul has a cloth underskirt too, so might as well just pass on the line CLAM, lol.

no, they have the ability to make plastic capes and stuff that is nearly as flexible as real cloth.. especially in this scale

I must have missed that. I have a lot of 6" guys with capes and none of them can sit.

 

Soft goods is where it's, at baby!

[shokker]

Hate soft goods. Looks always weird in a few years. Cant really clean it either. Hope that wont be a trend for every figure. Obi wan doesnt looks that good though. The arms look weird and whats with his face sculpt? I need better pics.

I don't think it's the face sculpt...I think it's the way it's painted. It looks like a very early prototype. I'm sure the final figure will look great.

meh, if you like cloth, that's fine. personally I hate it on any scale smaller than 12 inchers.

 

they should have done her skirt thingy the same as the Baron Zemo figure that is coming out for Marvel Legends next year. MUCH better looking

agree about Obi.. this is the first figure that kind of lets me down with the sculpt. But I am not sure what they could have done differently. it's just a boring look

SDCC 2013: Hasbro Star Wars Black Series 6" Images - Updated

[Wheeljack35]

I'm so damn tired of looking at pictures..Why are they waiting so damn long to release them?

[Bespin refugee]

Revealed at Celebration Europe II, Bespin Luke & Stormtrooper

[StrangePlanet]

Ah.... nice. Thanks for the link.

I have a thing for Bespin Luke. Just always liked that look.

Only really interested in droids, bounty hunters and troopers from this line, but I will need that Luke.

Greedo is surprisingly one of the best-looking figures in the line, and having a little gang of crazy SW aliens might be cool.

GAH! I don't wanna want them all, but man, they are looking pretty swank.

[Wheeljack35]

Well I didn't see Ben but Luke looks awesome

[synch]

I kind of thought all the series two figures looked kind of funny skin tone seemed sort of off to me on all of them though I blame that on the following reasons (or at least I hope so...) camera pictures , prototypes ... Also ... Has hasbro said anything about if we are going to get a Sir Alec Guinness obi?.. Cause I would love that & am not buying a single obi until we do!

[Bespin refugee]

No 'Sir Alec' Obi-Wan yet, just a Ewan E3 version, but, we're only, what, 2-3 waves in?

Still plenty of main characters/costume variations to go around

 

Wave 1:

Darth Maul

Luke X-Wing Pilot

R2-D2

Sandtrooper

 

Wave 2:

Boba Fett

Greedo

Han Solo (ANH)

Slave Leia

 

Wave 3+:

Bespin Luke

Obi-Wan (ROTS)

Stormtrooper

 

 

Biker Scout

Speederbike

[Wheeljack35]

They are going to have a Speeder Bike for this size?

 

Except for Darth Maul and Obi Wan I want the rest..Give me old Ben Kenobi over young Obi Wan any day

[shokker]

I knew they would start with the speeder bike but i thought they would start with vehicules in 2years or so. Awesome though :-D

[Bespin refugee]

The speederbike was revealed during the SDCC panel, and also mentioned here. They're still working on the price, with a release date of 2014.
