New 6" Black Series Coming From Hasbro

Finally found the Darth Raven wave at BestBuy but no Darth Raven,.. I was thinking about getting Leia, but we have 40th Leia which is suppose to look better.. Toysrus still same figs from Sep.. ridiculous already.. Get something new..

 

PadmeLeiaJaina will like this one. Soft goods Rey too.

6" TBS Rey's Speeder announced.
I really like it.
I'll buy it. The new Rey looks quite good, hopefully the head sculpt is better and the paint is tighter. The staff still looks too small but I can live with it.
Question is. Will I see it?













And that's the other thing to be excited for at the weekend. More SW Toys reveals! We should be seeing TFA Luke and Jaina as well.

 

Nice! Both look great. Nice use of soft goods here. I hope Hasbro continue to give us these small/mid-sized vehicles (And beasts too, Hasbro. We want a Dewback).

 

I was just coming in here to post this! Wow just wow! I'm going to need a whole shelf just for Rey on her speeder stuff

 

Exclusive R5-D4 will be at Gamestop!

 

When will that Rey be released??

 

Very cool. I don't collect most 6" figures (can't afford to start collecting another scale), but will probably make an exception for this 6" Rey & Speeder. The reason the 3.75" Rey & Speeder (2015) is so sub-par is because the Rey that comes with that does not have bendable knees, so looks very awkward & stupid sitting on the Speeder. And, yes, I do have the 3.75" The Black Series Rey (with articulated knees), but that figure doesn't look quite as good as this 6" Rey.

Conversely, this 6" Rey & Speeder looks almost like a model prop from the film - superb. The Rey has cloth goods, articulated legs & arms, etc. And, the Speeder itself is a lot more detailed than the 3.75" version.

In some cases, the 6" versions of these SW character don't look much (if at all) better than their 3.75" SA counterparts. But, in this case, there's a huge improvement over the 3.75" version(s) of both the Rey figure(s) and the Speeder itself.

 

6" Luke and landspeeder revealed! Will be $59.99

I wish we'd get an Anakin on Swoopbike

 

Yes! Been hoping for this one since they started the line. Looks like a new head sculpt at least on the Luke. $20 for the figure and $30 for the speeder works for me. Hopefully this and the Rey sell well so we get well so we get more of the small and mid sized vehicles.

 

Six inch Thrawn revealed today!

Really liking the look of that Tarkin. Great likeness.

 

Quick question: I have the 2016 wave of Obi-Wan Kenobi (#32) from ANH figure. Has anyone had problems with the removable lightsaber blade?

Anything on when Lando/Qui Gon wave is coming??

 

Very soon. About 2 weeks.

 

Which probably means 2 months for my area..

 

This maybe the problem.

Great article. Thx!

 

Yes! well, sort of. Tried removing the blade from my 40th Anniversary version (which is the same figure anyway), and the blade broke off in the handle!

Exactly how I feel...

 

Precisely the problem i had with a red box one. Exchanged it for another red box, blade seemed stuck so i left it be.

My local TRU has nearly nothing but tank drivers, they obviously arent moving, but no mark down.

Meanwhile, i havent seen Chirrut anywhere.

I still haven't seen Darth Raven anywhere.. This is madness..

 

Still no new BS in my area,, yesterday I tried Walgreens, Gamestop, BestBuy, and Target..

 

Alright I think this is what's been announced and has leaked so far:

SDCC:
TFA Luke, Resistance Rey two pack- Nothing exclusive just the early opportunity and packaging.
Thrawn and all the accessories (sigh)
Luke's Landspeeder- It's a better model with an engine and the figure includes some differences- I believe his staff.

FF:

6"
Wave One
Snoke, TFA Luke, Resistance Rey, Vader (legacy pack basic figure release), Stormtrooper, HERA*
* is coming apparently but I just found that out.

6" Vehicles:
Luke's Landspeeder
Rey's Speeder

3.75":
Snoke, TFA Luke, Snoke's ERG, some blue X-Wing pilot maybe female.

6" multipack (exclusive to some where):
ERG pack: ERG, Senate Guard, Shadow ERG, Snoke's ERG. (I believe)

6" exclusive (Target I believe?):
Snoke with his throne

(possibility)
6" exclusive:
Hologram Obi Wan





Wave 3:
Jaina
(Thrawn)


Finn isn't in the first three waves of TLJ though.

Commander Gree (exclusive)- Summer apparently.
Tarkin is Spring.
BF2 Special Forces Tie Pilot (exclusive) is Fall sometime.

I believe that's everything that's known about for now.

I think the Force Friday figures are pretty strong. Certainly if they make it out they can sell well so they shouldn't sit on pegs for long but that's if they make it out and don't linger afterwards. If anyone does pegwarm I would think Snoke because he's not that interesting nor does he have any sort of reconigtion YET. I hope to be proven wrong but no one cares about Snoke at the moment.

Here in the UK, Hasbro have made a mess of the 6" line. It's in chaos. I'll have to order online because I can't guarantee I'll see anything and even then distrubution sucks.
