The Black Series line has been hit or miss with me. My single biggest issue with the 6 inch line thus far has been curious character selections in each series thus far. There have already been three variants of Luke, three variants of Stormtroopers (four if you count the clone trooper), two Boba Fetts, and some curious costume choices (Slave Leia before Cloud City, or hair buns Leia?) Some characters should not have been made yet (Greedo most definitely) while others should have came out a LONG time ago (C-3PO). Granted though, these are issues more with the characters that are being offered though, as opposed to the figures themeselves. The figures have been pretty awesome, and the dreams of having Captain America and Luke Skywalker battling Imperial Stormtroopers who have teamed up with Hydra are finally realized.

My next biggest issue with the line, has been the distribution. Unless I preorder or buy online, it is literally impossible to find these in stores (this includes the 3.75 inch Black Series figures as well...) The exception to this rule being the the first 6" Black Series Boba Fett wave, which continues to loiter on store pegs (minus Boba Fett of course, who I still to this day have not seen in a retailer or drugstore.) These don't come very much to a case as is, and of course, the more popular ones like troopers and a certain bounty hunter tend to be short cased, making them very difficult to find in the wild, and very profitable for the scalpers who have friends in various brick and mortar store warehouses across the country.
