Hasbro 6" Black Series Star Wars line

[IdeaOfEvil]

Just to ask, is Boba pretty much oop now? The only Wave 2 I've ever seen were Greedo and Slave Leia at one store (Target), and now with news of Wave 3 hitting at any moment it feels like any and all Boba's have come and gone.

Am I stuck with eBay as my only option to find him, or is there still hope for an in-store purchase?

They finally figured it out!

Although I should have enough to be content with.

Great news they're repacking Stormtrooper in wave 5!

Hit or miss man. I only seen Boba week 1 of release. Others found 3 in retail last week!

I have been hiting F5 every 1/2 hour or so on HTS. The only time they will have stormy in stock is when I am not on the comp...

I don't know when this wave will be hiting the east coast. Unlike snow storms which have better accuracy.....

Haven't decided if I'm continuing this line yet. The reason I'm hesitant is my dad is selling off our toy collection and said I can take anything I want before the rest of it goes. Although they're not highly detailed or accurate, I do have fond memories of Hasbro's 12" line and the early days of PotF2. I am thinking of just taking that already wide variety of characters and displaying them and calling my SW collection finished so I can focus on my B:TAS collection which I'm still missing a half dozen or so villains from....

Never saw it a single one in stores. Amazon.com got them in but they went fast. Mostly to the Amazon marketplace sellers I'm sure. It was all about timing. I missed them a few times but finally grabbed one for retail. Gonna rely on the same for the stormie. And also lucked out and got the Sandtrooper, Luke and R2 for $10 each on Amazon.

Just be patient. My Local Toys r us had 6 cases of wave 2 last friday. DON'T pay stupid scalper prices. These figures are not worth that much...

TO be honest, they 're BARELY worth their retail price.

Yeah, $20 a pop was ok when the figures came with accessories, but Greedo with a gun and no glass was weak; Obi-wan an no robe is really weak.

Kinda over this line a tad

Stormie has a hole in his back - its like, come on - release it right, not half-assed

 

[Sidious-66]

Man Boba here in the UK is reaching stupid crazy prices, finding him for under £30 is as good as it gets but I have seen some sellers selling him for not a rocks throw away from £100.

I cancelled my order for Wave 3. I felt it just wasn't worth it. I am not a big fan of the prequels and Obi is too plain. Knowing that the Stormie will be in wave 5 made my decision to cancel a whole lot easier.

Mmhmm.

In a way I'm happy they're half assing it so early on. It took me 10 years to get burned out from 3 3/4" collecting and learn that Hasbro was an awful company and I was a slave to its stupid decisions and practices. I'm happy I've spent less money and time on this to remember why I stopped loving SW for a half dozen years. I don't want this to burn me out for my rekindled passion for the franchise. I'm calling quits on this line. Cold turkey. Not even the coolest looking figures like Stormie, Bespin Luke, Jedi Luke, or Vader. I'm gonna have a blast with that old '90s Hasbro crap no one here probably even likes unless they were a kid at the time of their release.

Now the question is: Do I keep my SWB figures or sell them? X-Wing Luke and Han are so much fun to play with. And Boba looks awesome. Hmmm...

 

[Kuzeh]

Oh man… I really wanted to support this line, but with the amount of stupidity Hasbro is displaying here,
I might end up jumping ship… might get Vader and that's it…

I feel ya about Hasbro,i hadnt bought a 3 3/4'' figure for years.But i've bought a few of the 6'' ones albeit on sale lol.I would just keep the ones you really like,no sense in getting rid of all of them,and maybe regret it later.Just my 2 cents.

I have to agree ADAPPJ28. I sold a bunch of my 3 3/4 line figs. I still have more but I will go thru my inventory again to see which ones I really need. I am only collecting some Imperials and maybe a trooper or two, and some bounty hunters. Whoa I just read my thread, that's still too many figs for me......

Re: Hasbro legends 6" sw figures

In definitely not being a completist with this line. So far Fett, Luke, Sandtrooper and R2 are the only ones I have. I was heavy into the 3 3/4 line up until AOTC. I stopped at around 400+ figures. This included errors and variations. The whole lot has been sold off for several years. Same with the 12" line. About 120 pieces. All sold off except the three Amidala Portrait Edition and Leia Portrait Edition.

Anyone any idea when wave 3 will pop up on amazon? As in sold by amazon themselves? Gotta pick up a cheap Bespin Luke somewhere.

I actually went to my local TRU for a second day in a row today and found ObiWan on the shelves. So I guess they're starting to make their waves to retailers all around

Re: Hasbro legends 6" sw figures

I doubt my target will stock shelves until the 7 greedos and 5 Leia's are sold. Im sure wave 3 is in back.

How in the world did you manage to sell all those figures? I have a handful of POTF and other 3 3/4 figures that I want to get rid of, but I see that they hardly ever sell on ebay!
