Hasbro 6" Black Series Star Wars line

[TaliBane]

I'm just not that interested in these anymore really. I love the 7" scale, but I've really got a preference for the smaller scale with SW to be honest - plus the majority of my SW items are the 3.75" Hasbro stuff. I've got lots of Marvel / DC & other movie stuff in the 7" scale, & it's how I like things.

The only way I'd really bother now, was if they firstly improved the quality of the paint apps & sculpts, & secondly, release characters I actually want. I'd then pepper them through my 1/6 SW cabinets as montage backgrounder pieces.

Yeah, I finally got the last 3 3/4" Black Series figs and they just seem more consistent quality overall than the 6" (even if Toryn Farr's outfit is a totally inaccurate reuse of Leia's)

Has there been any explanation for why the 6" figs have visible pin joints and yet the smaller figs can have hidden joints? Doesn't seem logical.

Bunch of dc collectible fans would like to know that as well I think.

Found Leia and Greedo for 9.99 at the Disney store.

They are fair. I guess I just got them to complete my set.

Thats why I eventually picked up Greedo. I was bored and figured I would add him to the set. Still nothing new in ANY local stores. I really don't want to get any of them online and risk crappy paint ;(

I'm sold on this line if they do Dooku or Grievous.

I'd say Greedo is one of the BETTER figures in the entire line up so far.

Can't argue with that. It's such a shame he wasn't more popular. Sends a message to Hasbro that there's no market for aliens in the 6" line. I'd love a Hammerhead, Walrusman, Bib Fortuna and Gammy Guard.

I would really be down for these!

 

[Evil_Ash]

Not sure if you guys realize this, but, Hasbro is going to milk this line for everything its got. Chances are you will eventually see all of those aliens you listed.

I like the figure overall, I just don't recall silver eggs glued to Greedo's face but maybe that was a creative choice.

To me that was a pretty eggregious error, so hopefully Hasbro will give the aliens a second chance - Hammerhead and Walrusman are pretty essential.

I seem to recall you being fairly low key Mr Tali.. what happened?

Gotta get in before hottoyscollectors.com draws away the faithful.

Cool pics man, such nostalgia to see action figures in real nature. Honestly in the right poses the sandie almost looks real. That thing really is the most ****ing premature piece-de-resistance ever. Granted rather premature than overdue.

If anyone is looking for Chewbacca amazon currently has 7 in stock. Ship and sold by amazon. Not a marketplace vendor.

[Reefer Shark]

The troopers are great! Cant say the same about Vader, but yeah love the stormies!

Nice!^

I have the whole 6 inch Black Series set despite all of my complaining.

If you are a casual collector, I highly recommend.
Stormtrooper, Sandtrooper, Boba Fett, X-Wing Luke, and Chewie
They are easily the top 5 for this line in terms of quality and bang for buck.
