How much is a decent price? I never got him when he first came out, didn't think he would go up in price.

I got him for $40, shipped. I saw a few ebay auctions end slightly under $40 but I've been looking for him for a while, so when I saw the $40 I jumped on it quick. (Which means of course that he'll be re-released or get a new figure any time now) lol

I initially didn't think I'd really be picking up any more regular black series figures until Tarkin comes out since this latest force Friday wave had a few that I'd been waiting on and I had no trouble scooping those up, obviously I caved and got these. My picture doesn't really show it but I think Hasbro did a solid job capturing an older Carrie Fisher's likeness and now I have older Leia to go with older Han. There's not too much that can be said about the Praetorian as an entity from the movie besides the fact that it's obviously this trilogy's equivalent of the Imperial Guard, as a toy I like it except for a few spots. The skirt piece being plastic blocks the leg range although not too severely and his elbows also have limited range due to the design but I will admit they move more than I thought they would. I like the way the shoulder pads are on ball-joints so they can be moved out of the arms path, I really like the design of his space-naginata thing, and overall I just like the figure. I do prefer the enigma presented with the classic Royal Guard's appearance but this new generation of leader-protectors look cool too and it seems we may actually get to watch them fight as opposed to just standing around and then let off of work early. A couple of quick thoughts having seen the rest of the wave. Finn looks alright but the eyes were a bit sloppy on the one I checked out. Maz's eyes kinda ruin that figure for me because they're painted to the size that they appear when the goggles are on so if you want to display her without the goggles on it's just plain wrong. Poe just looks bad to me, I guess Hasbro refuses to make a really good Oscar Isaac.

Picked up a Vader at Wal-Mart in Fredericksburg. He looks great. Saw a Rey in Trainingq. Decided to leave it for someone that really wants her.

People were saying how TLJ Rose looked like she was wearing a Ghostbusters outfit, so I gave her some Ghostbusters playmobile gear. Needs some modifying, but scales pretty well for 1/18 figures.

Put a wooden board on top of two of them. Boom, instant coffee table.

Hello everyone!
I have a quick question! Wich Black Series (6inch) Jyn Erso is best looking? EADU one, or the basic one? Rogue One figs are getting cheaper and I wanted to get a few to go along with my Tie Fighters. Thanks!

The Inferno Squad figure is a nice minor repaint of the classic TIE pilot we got three years ago. The differences are the obvious red markings, the belt added on (Edit: I mean it's a different belt), and the chest box being slightly repainted. The E-11 included with this one also has a more metallic look to it than the standard black ones. Overall I really like this one and just like the Walgreens ghost Obi-Wan I think these are great as exclusives because they aren't that much different than the regular options you could get.

Hello, I just finished a video review of my Custom 3 3/4 inch scale Jundland Wastes diorama/playset. There's also comparisons of 3 3/4 Star Wars figures and my collection of Landspeeders. Thanks!

Swapped helmets on one of my retail guards with the GameStop version. The different material skirts is frustrating but really easily adjusted

It's especially odd that they bothered with the fabric skirt for the Gamestop pack one when the Amazon one also looks to sport the plastic skirt. By Hasbro's own design that guarantees to make things weird for anyone that wants all three praetorian guards.

My Target had the new blue A-wings on sale for $19... couldn't resist at that price since this version is the bigger non-nerf version of the A-wing. Such a cool classic looking vehicle... also love the blue colors.
I also saw the 5PoA Admiral Raddus, Galen Erso and rebel trooper guy wave at a local Go Calendar and Games seasonal shop, but they were 12 bucks each... so I passed on them... Raddus looks cool though. |

Got my Amazon Heavy Guards in- decided to stick with as close to the poster as I can (but Snoke needs some elevation) went with 2 retail, 2 Amazon, and 1 Gamestop... but gave one of the retail guards a sword from the Heavy... It's really tough to tell the difference between the Heavy and retail guard so I don't know if it's right or not- but 2/2/1 works better for me than 1/3/1

Cool pic but between Snoke's robe and slippers and those red cuisineart guards, its looking more like Bed,Bath & Beyond than Star Wars.
