You can never really tell these days. I may get another as well so I can pose him up a bit.

I'll have to check mine, but I think the dent is molded into the helmet. So either it's a true variant and there's no molded dent, or someone missed a paint app.

One thing I really like about the 6" series is that you can open them, pose them, then put them right back into the packaging for display. I do wish the tray was a little more like Japanese toys (where it isn't shaped to exactly follow the toy's mold in a specific pose), but kudos to Hasbro for "resealable packaging".

decided to pull the trigger on the MS han/chewie and r2d2/c3po sets (mostly for han and c3po) and SL fett and gotta say while the articulation may be lacking on these guys, sculpt-wise they're freaking awesome.

Hey y'all, SWB 6" line collector here, well at least I collect them for my gf's son, he thinks they're the greatest thing. Anyway,I was at my LCS today to pick up a few things and all that was waiting for me was the case of wave 3. I had a minute to look through the case and found wave 2 Solo? I didn't take it even though the paint was better than the first issued,. But I have a question for those of you in the know. What is figure #12?

Thanks

Edit: I dug a bit, but found no definitive answer. Did Hasbro address this at any time? Was a figure tooled poorly and temporarily scrapped?

I'll start paying attention from now on, I promise!

[trebleshot]

Han is a wave 2 carry-over in wave 3 cases, which is a standard practice for Hasbro. I assume it's the main reason collectors haven't been snapping him up as quickly as Boba.

#12 hasn't been released yet, but it's been announced.

The 6" Series breaks down this way (so far):

Wave One (2013 Wave 1)
01. Luke Skywalker (X-Wing Pilot)
02. Darth Maul
03. Sandtrooper (ANH)
04. R2-D2

Wave Two (2013 Wave 2)
05. Princess Leia (Slave)
06. Boba Fett (ESB deco)
07. Greedo
08. Han Solo (ANH)

Wave Three (2014 Wave 1)
09. Stormtrooper (ANH)
10. Obi-Wan Kenobi (ROTS)
11. Luke Skywalker (Bespin)

Wave Four (2014 Wave 2)
12. Anakin Skywalker (ROTS)
13. Chewbacca (ANH)
14. Clone Trooper (AOTC)

Wave Five (2014 Wave 3)
XX. Darth Vader (ROTJ)
XX. Luke Skywalker (ROTJ)
XX. Sandtrooper (ANH; redeco)

Upcoming releases shown/announced at Toyfair*:
Jabba The Hutt
Scout Trooper w/Speeder Bike

*Subject to change

Thank you very much, that is much appreciated info

[merqabah]

also one of the designers confirmed they are working on Emperor palpatine with removable lighting, i doubt it will get cancelled

[trebleshot]

Since they're referring to him as Emperor Palpatine and not Darth Sidious, I'm going to guess he's going to be modeled on his OT appearances instead of the prequels.

That would also makes sense considering both Luke and Vader from Jedi are going to be released as well, and Palpatine's release would allow us to recreate the throne room scenes.

Hey guys, first post on this thread,managed to snag quite a few Black Series figs over the last couple of days, finally got Darth P and some troopers!

I'm definitely taking this with a grain of salt, but this new listing at BBTS seems to confirm the postponement of Chewbacca from the next wave of the 6" Black Series:

2014 Star Wars 6" Black Series 02 - Case of 4 - Star Wars 2013-2014 Star Wars Star Wars Black

As long as Chewie shows up at some point, I'm honestly cool with this. By postponing him (and cancelling the horrible plan to make Obi-Wan a "carry-over" figure), Hasbro has made room in that wave for re-releases of Boba Fett and the Stormtrooper !!!
I was lucky and found Boba Fett in my area, but I'm still searching for a Stormtrooper, so I really hope that this new case assortment is factual.

[CoolToysOnly]

I haven't even seen wave 3 in my area, and I have looked!

I've only seen it at Toys R Us, in my area. They have plenty of Obi-Wans and plenty of the carry-over Hans in stock, but the Bespin Lukes and Stormtroopers disappeared quickly. I was lucky enough to snag a Luke before they sold out.
