Just got my Series 2 in on Wednesday from eBay. Only paid $95 for them, so it wasn't too bad. I consider Han and Boba my favorites out of the 8. I am a bit disappointed that they are only going to 3 per set. Although it may be a bit better on the wallet.  For future releases, I would love to see: Ep I: Qui Gon Jinn Maybe Obi Wan Ep II: Count Dooku Jango Fett Mace Windu Yoda (or EP III) Padme - Genosis Arena Ep III: Chancellor Palpatine - I figured he would be close enough to Ep VI and have a lightsaber this way Clone Trooper - Maybe with a removable Ep II Head General Grievous Original Trilogy: Ep IV Obi Wan Any Episode Darth Vader Any Episode C-3PO Any Chewbacca Ep V Bespin Han Ep V Lando Calrissian Ep VI Jedi Luke Wouldn't mind obscure characters from the original trilogy, just not too many from the prequels. |

Other than many versions of Han and a Vader the two figures I want them to make the most are a Rebel Trooper and Bossk.

I want an ESB Yoda more than any prequel version. To me, THAT was the wise, powerful, spiritual Jedi Master. Not some cartoon flipping around with a lightsaber.
He could come with some various Dagobah stuff. A cooking pot, his cane, maybe some kind of scenic base type deal. Or do like POTF2 and release him with a Dagobah Luke, where Yoda comes with the backpack for Luke to wear during his training.

Great pictures Coon!
I'd love to see Qui-Gon, Ep. 3 Yoda or ESB Yoda, General Greivous (Would look incredible), and many of the others you just mentioned. Things are really heating up with the black series now that Christmas is coming, and more news is breaking about who is in the next few lines.
Wave 2, Han is definitely my favourite, but I think they did a good job on all the figures. Wave 3 interests me, as I love the Stormtrooper and Bespin Luke looks great.

Definitely looking forward to bespin Luke! I wouldn't mind seeing small playsets such as epiv Luke with a landspeeder Orr something like that. Really hope this line continues as I don't think I have ever been this excited for a Star Wars figure line |

Really hope this line continues as I don't think I have ever been this excited for a Star Wars figure line Totally agree! I haven't been this excited about a Star Wars figure line ... ever. This line is so promising, and the addition of small diorama's or scenery items, like that pole that Luke hung off of at the end of Ep.5 in Bespin, would be awesome. Sadly, they probably wont do that yet. I also hope they dont start to cheap out on accessories, as they did that for Wave 3. Obi-Wan only comes with his lightsaber! nothing else!  I think its great that theres guys like you, Haggar, and many others who post in this thread about Black Series. I read as much as I can about the news for it, and really enjoy talking to other people on forums, and seeing peoples opinions. I don't know if you have see Bespin Luke's figure yet, but it looks incredible. The only problem is that his eyes ruin it for me! they are big show crying eyes. If they adjust them to normal eyes, then it will all be good in my books haha. |

I saw a case of Series 2 this morning at the Monroe NY Target. So I picked up the extra Han and Boba Fett I wanted to get. I'm now ready for Series 3.

Yup, saw the Bespin Luke and I really hope they don't over look his main accessory in that attire......HIS REMOVABLE HAND! |

Bespin Luke should come with lightsaber,powered-down lightsaber,blaster,removable hand,and the power generator thing to plug into Artoo.
but,like was said,they may start cheaping out on accessories with Wave 3,which is NOT good! Obi-Wan without a removable cloak? come on!
but as of now,looks like Kenobi (as was said) only comes with his Lightsaber, Luke with only his lightsaber and blaster,and Stormtrooper with blaster and rifle. already a big scaling down considering all the weapons and accessories series 1 and 2 come with...

Totally agree with you guys. Heres the link to the in-box pics of Wave 3 for those who haven't seen it yet: news.toyark.com/2013/10/30/package-photos-star-wars-black-series-6-inch-wave-3-107459Just like both Mikey + Coon mentioned, that extra hand is a must for Bespin Luke. If you ask anybody who knows about star wars, "what happened when luke was at Bespin?" The answer would be along the lines of "his hand got cut off by Darth Vader.... who is is father" LOL The thing is, they cut down the line from 4 to 3, and are now skimping on the accessories for wave 3. thats a bit of a piss off -__- . Hope things are all better after wave 3, but otherwise I love the wave! Luke/Stormtrooper are must-haves for me. |

I don't know if I agree with that. I think most would say he found out Vader was his father, before mentioning the loss of his hand. I think that was the bigger reveal.

Haha I was just trying to put a bias spin on it, in order to get that extra hand  People wouldnt give a crapabout his hand compared to Vader's big unveiling.. except for a few guys who want his hand included in his newest Black Series figure! |

The lightsaber blades are removable. Just pop the blade out and hang it on Luke's belt just like with Series 1. |

Same here, I'm 100% sold on Han Solo. one of my absolute favourite characters, ofcourse, and I'm very happy with how they produced his likeness and sculpt. I don't care for Boba Fett as the average Star Wars fan does, but I would get his figure. He is a badass afterall. However, being an animator, and generally just liking Articulation, the fact that his pouches severely limit his movement to the point where he cant even be posed to walk or run forward... well it just ruins it for me. So I won't be picking him up.
Oh well, the money saved will go to some Stormtroopers on a hopeful but doubtful BOGO/BOGO50%OFF... they have to have a sale sooner or later, and hopefully its when the Stormtrooper is out because thats when people will want to buy more than one.

Do your walamarts carry the 6" line? Because I've only seen them at TRU & Target
