I like having the packaging of a 4 pack, but those are so common there's no need. Vader, Emperor, Jedi Luke, and Stormtrooper would be awesome

The only non common one in that pack is Boba, wonder if scalpers will be scalping that bad pack, but great for collector's who didn't have him, although they probably have the other 3.

Boba Fett is so rare where I am that I've never seen one in a store. Not even like a glimpse of somebody else buying one, just an army of Leia, Greedo, and Han. Because of how unwanted those figures are all of my local stores refuse to restock new waves since they see it as "well the shelves are still full so we don't need anymore." Technically every figure in each wave so far has been equally rare (with a box of four and each figure is one per box) but Boba Fett clearly has an extreme lead in demand over the others of his wave, hence all of my local stores are stuck on wave 2 except Walmart because they never had wave 2 they jumped straight to 3.

My observations match those of En Sabah Nerd. The most popular figures were bought up early; all that's left is the dregs.
This is the action figure equivalent of a 'doggie bag.' Leftovers, anyone? Last edited by Skoob; 10-15-2014 at 12:16 PM.. |

I'm guessing not many collectors in my immediate area. At least for the black series at least. Then again I have a pretty good handle on the sticking schedule for most stores in my area

The first image that popped into my head was that set sitting on the shelf at my local TRU, with Boba Fett's window slashed to hell, and Boba and his accessories all missing
Up until a year ago, spotting that sort of theft at my local TRU was fairly common. This set seems to be a perfect target for that sort of thing. Personally, I'd prefer if that set stayed an exclusive in Mexico and Hasbro began shipping out revision cases with Boba Fett, in the US. Like everyone else has said, those of us who wanted the other three, by now, have easily obtained them. Quote:

Of course, the next time I was there, he was gone, while Han, Leia, and Greedo were still on the pegs. But anyways, it may be a good sign that Wal-Mart may finally be receiving that wave. Last edited by Frank Richards; 10-15-2014 at 09:17 PM.. |

I am really glad that Boba Fett seems to be decreasing in rarity. I ordered mine from Dorksidetoys for regular price, but then not long after HTS had him restocked, actually I think HTS has Boba Fett right now. It irritated the shit out of me for the longest time that he was so rare. Technically this should never have happened, the figure originally released a year ago and it's just now being made more available. Hasbro botched the launch of this 6" line, hopefully they continue to make it right and not repeat the same mistakes.
