Star Wars Black Series 6 Inch Stormtrooper And Bespin Luke Skywalker In Hand Images - The Toyark - News

Not crazy about the face on Luke, but otherwise that figure is aces. Gonna have to grab it if I see it.

Optimus Neeson · 12-02-2013, 03:03 AM

Is Luke's face really stretched out, or is that an effect of the camera lens?

Penguino · 12-02-2013, 10:31 AM

His face does look funny. But you have to remember this is viperskingdom, he gets figures off the factory line, and commonly they are factory rejects.

I ordered a couple GI Joes from him and one had rusted out screws in the legs, and another's arm was mismoulded from the machine. So Luke's face could be a very bad factory error. It also could be the camera too because the rest of it looks very thin too.

There's a boxed picture release awhile back, that's more of an indication of what we'll probably be getting.

Ah, much better. Yeah, definitely going to have to add this one to the shelf.

Yeah, Luke's on my must-buy list as well. Not so sure about the Stormtrooper, though. I wouldn't mind getting one, but I would be too tempted to army-build them and that would get very expensive very quickly. Then again, since they're short-packed, I might be able to spread that cost out over several months.

Besides, I'd be far more interested in a Snowtrooper - assuming Hasbro makes one for this line and scale.

Optimus Neeson · 12-02-2013, 04:22 PM

Bespin Luke and Leia are really all I want from the Black series.

Im sticking to only buying one of every imperial trooper they make, and of course, the exception being boba fett, which all of you need to have.
Just an awesome figure. My olny gripe with him is that his scope thing on his helmet is stationary and wont rotate.

Which version of Leia? She had a couple of outfits on Bespin. Or did you mean the Slave Leia that just came out recently?

My want/wish list is relatively short as well:

Bespin Luke
Han Solo (ESB)
Darth Vader (ESB or ROTJ)
Jedi Luke
Hoth/Bespin Leia (I think it's the same outfit)
C-3PO
Chewbacca

(...and maybe certain Stormtroopers, as I mentioned above)

Agreed on Boba Fett, who is thankfully already in my collection.

It's actually kind of funny that you mentioned that. All these years I had always assumed it was an antennae of some sort, not a scope sight. I guess it's because all the 3.75" toys of him were too small to make out any details about it and he never used it as a scope in the films (or at all, really).

So it kind of makes sense that this toy's version would also be stationary. It's film-accurate

bmorr · 12-03-2013, 08:20 AM

yeah, if you look close in ESB he does use it when hes in slave I. the scene where he takes off out of the star destroyer waste to go after the millenium falcon.

trebleshot · 12-03-2013, 10:14 AM

Oh, yeah. Guess I just ignored it or thought it was part of Slave I (similar to the sight scope in X-Wing fighters).

bmorr · 12-03-2013, 11:36 AM

i was trying to find the scene on youtube, so i could see it for myself. but couldnt find it.

trebleshot · 12-03-2013, 01:13 PM

I couldn't find it, either. But I did find a really nice still frame of it in this vid (at the 0:23 mark):

Oh yeah, I had forgotten about the dress. I was actually thinking about her white jumpsuit.

trebleshot · 12-03-2013, 02:15 PM

That's the one I'd want as well. I think it's the same one she wore at the Hoth base, only without the outer coat/vest and different boots.

That's what I thought too, until I looked a little bit closer, and now I'm not really sure at all. Could be though.

Her hair was also tied differently, along with not wearing the outer vest. And I didn't know about the boots too.

Dr Kain · 12-03-2013, 11:34 PM

THere are only two figures I want, Vader and RotJ Luke.
