I've never understood why hasbro would take the time to shoot hi-res images with a bent gun.

microwave some water, let gun sit, straighten. easy peasy.

They explained that at a Q&A at a con a while back I thought? The photographers aren't toy people, they come in, set the figures up, take the photos as fast as possible and get out. That's why you end up with problems like bent guns and badly Transformed Transformers.

Love them putting the mini-Wasp with AntMan and vice-versa. Should help sales of both figures.

Another Phasma figure? She wasn't even worth buying the first time.

The General Veers looks cool, but like Sabine, Revan, and Tarkin, I'll never seen him, so I'll never be able to get him.

I found Tarkin pretty easily right after Solo hit theaters. Never seen the others.

I get that, but you would think a hasbro rep who had a clue would be present.

but that's not how hasbro does a thing. you get what you get. just be happy, nerds.

My stores are littered with young Han, Chewbacca, Death Star Soldier B, and the lady with the goggles fro TFA/TLJ. Suddenly Jynn, Krennick, and Caspian have all disappeared.

I went to 8 Walmarts looking for Tarkin like two week's ago and didn't find a single one. I'm also not going to pay more than retail for him as I don't think the Star Wars figures are really worth $20, but I'll buy the characters I want the most.

Hasbro is doing god's work releasing all these Black Panther figures.

Jesus Christ, posts like this are so stupid and sadly prevalent on this forum.

I also don't see the point of the unmasked T'Challa, given that we have an unmasked head with the previous release. But I'm guessing Panther is the most in demand figure from the last wave, and they want to make sure every kid can get a Panther figure, so we get two in this wave. Wonder if he'll come with the masked head?

That's a good point. He was definitely the hardest to track down for me and this does look like a slightly different deco. I'd have to put them side by side to be sure. I hadn't thought of the WM exclusive being a comic book version since it's not unmasked but I suppose the colors are a bit poppier. Either way, more BP is good for me.

I remember when the movie came out and merchandise was scarce, the local news looked up and down toy aisles everywhere to find a black man to say, "Finally I can buy my son a superhero that looks like him" (nevermind Steel, John Stewart, War Machine, Falcon, etc).

That's why they heavily push the Maskless BP toy.

I understand why the watermark is there, but there's no reason to get your panties in a bunch. You guys take great pictures and are the best on the internet. It was a simple question as to why it couldn't be moved to another location on the picture. Thanks for all of your hard work and great coverage.

6" Black Series is getting S1 Ezra and Chopper. Chopper comes with a black effect for his rocket thruster.

[jwyss234]

6" Black Series Archive series will consist of 4-8 figures per year.
The first four will be ESB Boba Fett, Bossk, IG88, and X-Wing Luke. All figures with real faces will get the face printing.

[jwyss234]

2019 Star Wars 3.75" Vintage Collection
Scarif Stormtrooper, Praetorian Guard, Darth Revan, Rogue One Stormtrooper, Lando (Solo), and Rogue One Death Star Gunner.

New figures will have the face printing.

Maybe when they finally finish the entire Rebels cast they'll reissue them all in a box set for those who couldn't get them.

So I guess Zuckuss is a Disney store exclusive, well shit. I don't have any Disney stores in my area, closest ones are like 40 minute drives assuming traffic is miraculously low. At least they're finally re-issuing Boba Fett for everybody who missed him the first few times, I guess I hope they also put Darth Maul into that archives series since he's another figure who needs to get another release.

Edit: also cool to see the 3.75" Revan getting re-issued finally, that guy's still one of my favorite SW figures.

[snake5289]

Glad to see that Ryu comes with extra hands so he won't have to be stuck in a permanent HADOKEN! pose.

Hope those 2-packs get released soon.

Shelf warmer, that Admiral Holdo will be.

Every store I go to still have Force Awakens Finn figures.

[graphyt]

Happy to get another chance to get IG88. Might even get a second X-Wing Luke, I'll have to check my paint to see if I feel the need, the first BS were pretty good. Though if they do an Archive Darth maul I'll be thrilled
