Star Wars Black Series 6-Inch Bossk, C-3PO, Han Stormtrooper Info

$22.99 each??? WTF Hasbro? No display stands, no BAF parts, most all figures are getting the bare-bones accessory treatment, and somehow you think a $3.00 price bump is needed? That's outrageous. This might just make me give up this line now.

Those are Diamond Distribution SRP, not Hasbro's. With the ability to break up cases now, the price was bound to be a bit higher for Diamond retailers.

I'm just excited! Han Stormtrooper too!
I think this means at leasssst one more wave is expected! Hopefully a different Leia and Stormtrooper Luke!

$22.99 seems to be what they first go up at on Amazon as well lately. Anakin Skywalker is still priced at $22.99 as I type this. I haven't bought one of these in a brick and mortar store in a long time, so I 'm assuming they're still $19.99 there, since I haven't heard anyone say otherwise. But yeah, $22.99 is really steep, considering $19.99 was already pushing it.

I'm excited to finally get C-3PO. And Bossk will be cool, too, but he'll probably peg warm like Greedo. I'm curious about the Han Solo in Stormtrooper disguise. Will it simply be a Stormtrooper body with a new Han head designed for the Stormtrooper peg? I guess we'll find out.

this about confirms as well a luke stormtrooper and i believe an ig-88 will make an appereance in the near future, (because bossk and fett would be so lonely without him).

that said, i wonder why some of these will come before emperor palpatine or more requested figures.

[IndyMOS]

Really looking forward to C3PO. We need him to go next to R2-D2. Han in Stormtrooper outfit sounds nice, so now we need a Luke Stormtrooper as well.

Now we still need the TIE fighter pilot, Jawas, Emperor, and Yoda figures that were revealed a while back. Maybe those could make up a wave.

[DarthNexus]

Ig-88 would be bosssss
I hope The emperor looks good and has mucho articulation….

[Maverick]

I hope the Han comes with a storm tropper helmet. Less peg warming that way.

as much as i dislike episode 3.. the only black figure that i REALLY want is a general grievous figure.. i mean, i think they could include enough accessories to make the price seem worth it.. it might be the only change of getting a proper, non sideshow, general grievous.

i'm sure it'll never happen.

i still find it incredible how long leia and greedo have been warming the pegs.

i only every saw boba fett on the shelves ONCE.. and the only other time was when i asked an employee to get one from the stock room.

i don't know why hasbro does this. they make so few of what people want.. but clog the shelves with stuff that people don't want. it's unreal how terribly bad they are at judging their fan base.

i cant wait for bossk and c3po. skip on the han.

Well they are repacking Boba and regular Trooper with the Anakin and Clone Trooper asst., and then the case after that they are upping to 8 figures per case. 2 Vader, 3 Boba, 1 Jedi Luke, 1 Chewey, and 1 Sandtrooper w/ new shoulder color.

And I feel like if they ever do General Grievous he will end up in the 40$ deluxe package. 4 arms, 4 lightsabers, cloth cloak, with them all extended and posed in the package.

Can't skip that Han, buy me a few, cast a few trooper heads, more army built

Actually, the case with the Vader, Boba Fett, Jedi Luke, Chewbacca and Sandtrooper has been canceled.

I am looking forward to seeing the 6" C-3P0 (and buying it). Then I will have the counterpart companion for R2-D2. Possibly get Bossk. Maybe Chewbacca. Definitely Darth Vader. I'm still looking for the deluxe pack Scout Trooper/Speeder Bike. Still on the fence about Jabba the Hutt. I know there is the 3.75" Snow Trooper out there. Just hope to chance on finding it. That figure would be cool in the 6" scale. What I personally do not care for are the human characters (Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, Ben Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker). I just plain do not care for the expressions upon their faces. They look rather empty. Or, maybe I'm being too critical.

[johnpfan]

Well, I bought the Han Solo figure. Pleasantly surprised by it. It looks nothing like Harrison Ford (I think so) and more like Han Solo. He looks ready to "throw down" on a pin drop.
