But yet Hasbro keeps doing it, so that makes me think perhaps that's not a dumb move. Say I want an Obi-Wan with 2 212th Troopers, if they're single packs, I'd buy 1 Obi and 2 212th (3 figures). But now that it's a 2-pack, I have to buy 2 2-packs (4 figures) and then either sell off the extra Obi-Wan or just give it to my kid. (multiply by how ever many troopers you actually want). I'm willing to bet enough people do that, that's why Hasbro keeps packing troop builders with single characters.

Yah but im willing to wager folks waiting for a clearance sale price, whereas if theyd done a two pack of the standard trooper and the airborne guy they may not have.

It won't be a long wait until this thing is on clearance, and or at Ollie's. They fucked up so bad that nobody wants to buy Obi-Wan stuff anymore...

LOL what? This 2 pack sold out in about and hour, and the previous Winda and Yoda ones have sold out quickly as well.

0% chance this ends up at Ollie's. Not happening. Acolyte and or Disney stuff? Yes. Clones and prequel jedi? No.

Honestly a little glad I wasn't the only person who thought this.

The release date is June 1st 2025 so it's going to be restocked. It's "sold out", Hasbro, does this constantly with black series figures. They put up a limited number to make people think they sold out when they really didn't.

I've wanted a Wookie Jedi figure since I was six years old.
Forty-seven years I have waited.
And this is what Hasbro makes.
Not only is the design odd, for lack of a better word, he's the Wookie that appeared in several episodes and never did a cool thing.
Not once.

Maybe they did. Maybe he's some Cerean\Wookie hybrid and that's why it took every single witch to mind control him.
That could also be why every single witch died when the mind control was broken.

That makes as much sense as the Jedi blaming the death of the entire witches coven on a 10 year old girl.

Yeah, it'll come back for a day or two, and then it'll sell out again. So my point stands. You'll never see this in Ollie's, people buy them all up. To say otherwise is delusional.

Hasbro Star Wars Black Series 6" Shadows of the Empire Luke & Leia 2-pack, full reveal over at Slashfilm - https://bit.ly/3OP1xrB

[snake5289]

That Luke was my favorite SW figure growing up so that's pretty damn awesome. Now shrink it down for the Vintage Collection.

[Darth Revan]

More Expanded Universe goodness.

[JPs]

I really do want that Luke, loved the original figure. Why is it a 2 pack?

[snake5289]

So they can crap out...I mean reuse that disguised Leia again?

[JPs]

Right. Her figure is still in stores on discount…
They might as well have got them back from the stores & just shoved them in a new box, sort of like Walmart does with certain movies during the Halloween & Christmas.
Toyark for some reason the first image on the page separates the 2 figures as if they aren’t a 2 pack.
