I nearly overlooked these figures, because they were on the Blu-Ray / DVD aisle, beneath a big promotional display.

My TRU had the figures in the NECA section marked at $19.99,no DVD display in sight.

My First Order troopers finally arrived via Amazon.

I must say, I'm very satisfied with them. I've read a number of complaints about the decreased articulation, but it really wasn't that much of a deal breaker, as several of the other Black Series figures (Boba, any of the Jedi characters, Han) also have single jointed elbows. I'm able to get them holding their blasters with both hands no problem. They also hold the larger battle rifles from the clone troopers and original trilogy stormtroopers, so that's also a plus. I also dig the clever manner of weapon storage as well. I really hope to see how that looks in the movie.

What I really dig though, is the harder plastic that the figure is made out of. The troopers feel more sturdy now than they ever have been, and for once, I didn't have to give one a blowdryer treatment right out of the packaging. The paint apps could be a little cleaner considering it is only black and white, but still...it was worth the wait to get them. Now onto Phasma, and I'm done with Black Series until Kanan, Ahsoka, and Jango come out...

Quality isn't great and you can see I got 2 right hands for Optimus but they were pretty cheap and they threw in a Black Convoy...

There's a port on the FO Stormtrooper's right leg where either gun can plug on for storage.

The TRU in my area is awful, and totally hit-or-miss when it comes to exclusives, so I was relieved to find the Snowtrooper Officer.

Wave 2 of the Ep. VII 6" Black series hasn't really hit my area in large quantities yet, but I was lucky enough to spot Poe at a GameStop.

Here's another addition to my Frightful Four collection, but it's a bittersweet addition, since my Frightful Four line-up will continue to feel incomplete until Hasbro releases a Wizard figure

And, the Simpsons' family sedan.

It looks like the one from the Star Wars The Clone Wars line, some type of shuttle.

Edit: I just looked it up and it's the Republic Attack Shuttle from The Clone Wars line, it came out in 2011 or so.

I was checking out with the ULTRON figure, and they said "It is recalled. We can not sell it"

oh up near customer service w/ all the other returns huh?

3233rafael · 11-01-2015, 04:42 PM

@Falconhood...Yeah! I knew they would say something once I got to the register so I pressed my luck at the self-service registers. I scanned Hulkbuster, Ultron and Darth Maul and they all got an alert of some kind (I can't remember what it said), but, this one did not alert for whatever reason. The strange thing is that I knew the release date for the three I mentioned to be the 3rd of this month, but, I had never heard that this spot figure even existed. Another local collector who saw this post (on another web page) tells me that there's another figure besides spot to be released soon but he doesn't remember who it is. Do you or any of you guys know anything about that?
