Wow, Wave 31? My stores are still stuck with the first Solo wave of Chewbacca and young Han along with a few Jawas, Maz, Target Leia, and Rey with her outfit from when she annoyed Luke.
I'm still waiting to see the Rebel Alliance footsoldier and the two Empire generals (Piet and the dude Julian Glover played in RotJ) out.

Veers and the Rebel Trooper hit last Summer/early Fall. Wave 27, the initial Solo wave is still stuck at almost all my stores. I'll ocassionally see a Qi'ra from wave 28 or Beckett from 29. |

I still need 3 figures from wave 30. Never saw that at my Walmart. The have tons of solo,Lando and females....even in top stock. I expect I will need to order this wave online. Retail and Hasbro go together like oil and water.

I'm still in shock that they decided to make a figure of one of the most despised characters (Holdo) from the most divisive film in Star Wars in the franchise. Jar Jar I would have expected...maybe even welcomed. But Holdo?...
Can't wait to see her peg warm for the next two years... |

What is the deal with lack of interest in Mace? I am up for getting this figure, probably the only one of this wave for me, unless I pick up some Battle Droids. I don't see many others really getting on board with this figure though, what gives?

Just curious why the mud troopers needs masks with air lines when Beckett didnt have a mask on at all. Hard pass with this wave. Also SHF did it better.

I absolutely want Mace Windu but that's it from this wave. Hopefully the lack of excitement means he'll be easier to get for us. I don't like the battle droids, I'm too indifferent toward Padme to want a 6" figure, I didn't care about mudtrooper Han or Paul Bettany with lines on his face, and while I do like TLJ even I am perplexed that we're getting a Holdo figure at this point.

I think that most folks that HAD TO HAVE Mace, already picked up the Figuarts version a long time ago- so there isn't a massive rush of "Finally, Mace!" out there. Sure, there's plenty of Hasbro hold-outs, but he's not got that 'First 6in figure of Mace ever!' that would normally have people clamoring for him.

I get it though- Hasbro (wants to) make figures that will sell. Holdo IS a very divisive figure to make because A)TLJ was a divisive film for fans you know, the people that will buy the toy and B) Holdo is one of the main targets for that divisiveness... So choosing her as an action figure is... unusual. Even JarJar has a large fan base compared to Holdo and he's still waiting in the wings. I'll buy her (already did) and she'll have a spot on the shelf- but I also get the questioning behind her being made at all.

I honestly think Jar Jar's only waiting in the wings because they've been largely focused on the current movies for the past couple years; now, with the more open space for non-current-movie figs due to the year-and-a-half gap between Solo and Ep 9, they've been doing more figures from other movies, including an increased prequels focus due to the 20th anniversary of Phantom Menace. I would not at all be surprised if they revealed a Jar Jar at Toy Fair.

JarJar is on my must have list, so I'll be grabbing the Figuarts version. Like Mace, when Hasbro gets around to him I may already be good.

Why is everyone calling this wave 31? This is Wave 20 of Phase 3 and the 29th overall Black Series Wave...
