When is an Anakin rerelease coming out?

firmpulse · 10-24-2023, 09:53 AM

Jesus ANOTHER of the same old Vader? That's like the third one in the last 6 months. 4 if ya count Duel's End.

What's the deal with this Mando release? Is this the new figure and they used the stupid plastic cape again in lieu of soft goods? Or is this a different version?

It's the same figure as the Book of Boba Fett one just they call this one Mines of Mandalore Mando and he comes with a plastic cape and no Jetpack.

While The Book of Boba one that still hasn't come out yet comes with cloth cape and Jetpack

That's a great likeness for Starkiller, but he only comes with one lightsaber and no FX pieces.
Why?

Aside from the Darksaber I can't tell any difference.

Looks like the BOBF version has a new head and this uses the old? I can't really tell. (I got off my lazy ass and looked it up after I posted. Sorry)

It's ok I was confused by it too.

Oh good! I need ANOTHER Vader and Mandalorian! ��. I really hope nobody buys them so that Hasbro will stop adding them to every wave of every style figure.

He doesn’t use 2 until the second game. It would be good if he has interchangeable hands like open palm, never liked Black Series invisible cup holding hands or half relaxed gestures, I will not be getting any of these.

But the Book of Boba Fett version is the same as this Mines of Mandalore one, but with addition of the aforementioned softgoods cape and jetpack. What is the point of releasing the Mines of Mandalore figure?

Harbinger · 10-24-2023, 12:50 PM

Getting at least three starkillers. Force unleashed series is one of my favorites next to the jedi knight games.

More like not everyone gets every release. Kids and new collectors.

CosmicCreature · 10-24-2023, 08:06 PM

Hell Yes im excited to be getting Starkiller ! Im glad I didnt go for the pricey pulse exclusive although I did have twange of regret of missing out on extra head ,light sabers. also R4 looks cool !Keep Putting out more droids and more saber wielding darksiders please . Malgus , Malak both were awesome .
We Need Black series figures for Darth Plagueis ,Darth Bane ,Marka Ragnos ,Darth Sion , Darth Traya.
I believe ive hit my limit for vaders though. Im surprised how many I have despite passing on concept art 2 pack and red colored exclusive one.
I dig mando character alot but no No No No more mando .

Designincase · 10-24-2023, 08:56 PM

I assume Mando and Vader just sell really well for them to release these figs over and over with minimal changes. That's the only reason that can explain why these figures seem to come out every several months.

T0ySick · 10-25-2023, 10:18 AM

Starkiller looks fun

The point is to keep a version of the most popular Star Wars characters in production and on shelves, because they're just going to keep selling. Vader is always going to sell, and the Mandalorian is always going to sell. They want to keep them available for the masses, which makes sense. What doesn't make sense is highlighting them as a collector focused release, alongside announcing a fan favorite like Starkiller. We aren't the target audience for them.

Got my po for starkiller so how i just gotta wait till next year……..damnit.
