Hasbro 6" Black Series Star Wars line

My Hoth rebels arrived this morning, they?re absolutely superb. Hasbro are smashing it with this wave, especially pilot Luke. The Snow Speeder should be delivered this afternoon!

Are they finally doing this guy?

I?m a kid again [emoji24][emoji38]

Apologies for naff photos. Too excited! I?ve Ben flying this thing around the living room like a kid, pretending Mrs Flintty is an AT-AT. This is so effing cool.

Lol that?s what I thought but my Mrs took it well! She even suggested a place to put it (and it wasn?t the bin or garage!).

Are there any differences between the 40th anniversary and regular, collector friendly releases or is it just the packaging?

Only the packaging. The only time there's a possible difference with the figure itself is with con exclusives.

Thanks! I pre-ordered the Snowspeeder and Pilot Luke from BBTS and saw the 40th Anniversary version was releasing in June with the regular release (re-release?) being later this year. Thought it was odd.

I too received the snowspeeder today. I have to say I am extremely happy with it - it’s awesome. It’s also very well-made, including the paint apps which are definitely a stepup compared to previous vehicles like Luke’s Landspeeder. To get an idea of its size, it’s is roughly as big as the Taschen Star Wars Archives book, so very very big.

If I were to complain about something, it would definitely be the milky white glass - some people have mentioned this already. Rather than being better in person, I found it actually worse. It really is milky, like they’ve been having a conversation in there for half an hour with the demister turned off. I also found it a bit hard to fasten the seatbelts with the figures inside.

But all in all, an excellent excellent release.

Does it seem like the "glass" (I'm assuming plastic?) would be easily replaceable?

Hasbro sucks when it comes to delivering a clear sheet of freaking plastic.

I actually got her on all fours too and had her stomping about. She was a real sport! She?d be ecstatic that I?ve shared this with the world.

Looking at photos online...looks like you could pop those windows out easy enough. Probably be a permanent mod though.

Wow, that woman *must* be in love with you.

 

[Flintty]

Lol yeah she has grown to accept me and my weirdness!

Definitely a cloudy look to the canopy. Sadly it?s one single mould so no popping out of Windows.

I have to check again but I *think* the whole canopy is made from that see-through plastic, with the ‘metal’ bits painted on. Similar to what they do with the pilots’ helmets. But I have go check again cause I’m not sure.

Shame! He's the Hoth rebel I always wanted. The one in the pic might work with a slight repaint though.
