Hasbro 6" Black Series Star Wars line

[Namkia34]

Just got an email from bbts that series 4 has come in and it is getting ready to ship!!! Nice surprise as I thought for sure they would be delayed

Yoda doesn't have a biceps (or elbow) swivel, fail, now I can't pose him how I wanted to.

Just read these figures were made with the help of gentle giant, not heard this before is it true?

If so have they actually scanned the original costumes?

 

[XxStrait-EdgexX]

I watched a review for the tie pilot and they said they used gentle giant for the helmet sculpt

I think it was said that GG is doing all the sculpting for this line.

Finally decided to take the plunge and get the Biker Scout and bike. $32 on Amazon was just too tempting. Jabba was a pretty great price too but not 100% on the color scheme and not sure how you pose a ROTJ posture Jabba without a throne. Might grab it if they ever do a throne.

What's funny is that those seem like the prices they "should" be. The idea that a SW fig (even one 50% bigger than the "regular" SW figs) sets you back $20 and sets like this have RRP's of $40+ is sorta crazy. Maybe it's the memory of $4.99 figs from years ago - the curse of memory.

Still don't love the exposed pins on these guys and I'm keeping my purchases to a bare minimum (I'm taking a bottom-feeder approach - clearanced items mostly) but it is pretty cool having 6" scaled SW figs.

$25-30 feels about right for this speeder bike set, and it's a nice stand-alone piece.

I meant 32 each it was a day or 2 leading towards black friday and all there star wars stuff was like 30% off
toronto dufferin mall toys r us, both rang up to $71 something. it's a bit of money still but didn't wanna miss out on it grabbed the last 2 they had.

So after months of waiting for Walgreens.com to send my Fett I finally cancelled my order after finding em in store. So of course despite my cancellation I get notification that it has shipped today..... Ugh

When I tried to cancel my Proto Fett, they said they couldn't and I would have to wait till it ships and then either send it back or take it to a walgreens store. I returned mine today to the store and got my money back.

I also found a Tie pilot at the time square toys r us. There were a bunch of Obi Wan in the new packaging, and Clone sergeants. Yoda seemed like he sold out. Now I just need to get another tie pilot, a clone sergeant and a yoda to complete this wave.

Wow I guess Hasbro went old school w/no swivel arms. Those beady dot eyes.....

 

[Silrian]

Yeah this line is in free fall... I'm starting to get really disappointed by it. Guess this line is a break for the people who want the OG BH set, or an army of stormies, but otherwise... sheesh.

 

[Evil_Ash]

The problem with this line is that it uses the same paint as the 3.75 inch line. If they stepped up the paint game with these, they would be fine.

 

[Bo Shrek]

Its funny how Hasbro / Disney (not me) has made me slow down to almost a stop with collecting this both the 3 3/4" and 7" lines. Distribution, quality, price, character selections, I have been turned off of late. It almost feels like they don't put the effort in like they used to!

 

[OutLander]

Feels like they are just going through the motions now until EP VII figures comes out, probably this fall?

Re: Hasbro legends 6" sw figures

For $20 at its size Yoda should have included more accessories like the backpack for a future Dagobah Luke we all know is coming.

I hope they finish the OT main cast soon. 3PO, Kenobi, Leia in a normal outfit, Maybe an Ackbar then I'm out.

Would LOVE to see 3PO and Ben in this line.

I know it's old news, but I'm loving the Bike and Biker... just an incredibly well done piece. I saw Jabba in-store for the first time but it just feels pointless without a throne to go with it. The eyes look a little off color-wise and the paint's a little thick, but overall it's so cool they did Jabba in this line.

@Kris Id have been content with just a higher quality of the figure itself personally... Better robe design, better articulation, better paintapp.

If I could trade in the lightsaber and the snake for that I'd easily do that. I much rather pay for quality than quantity...
