My ultimate 6" Black Series wish list would be any of these guys -
Luke (Endor bike chase with green lightsaber, removable helmet and poncho...that way we effectively also get a Death Star II version of Luke)
Han (ESB in the long sleeve jacket, maybe with his breathing apparatus from the "cave" scene)
Chewbacca (ANH version with the crossbow and a Stormtrooper rifle)
Yoda (ESB version with a cane, the backpack, and possibly some other accessory like his pot or something)
Luke (Dagobah attire with his supply chest, lightsaber/blaster, and swappable hands for "Force" positioning)
Leia (Either ANH with blaster, or ESB with a blaster. Not too picky)
LANDO (Bespin blue attire, cape, and pistol. Maybe toss in a wrist device for activating security)
Ben Kenobi (removable robe, blue lightsaber, and the Jedi training ball)
Darth Vader (any version will be great, as long as we get a lightsaber. ESB is most iconic, but ANH with the matte color scheme and robe over the shoulder armor would be good by me)
Other great figures would be the Snowtrooper, the Biker Scout, Grand Moff Tarkin, the Emperor, and any of the bounty hunters from ESB. They could even do a ROTJ Boba Fett re-deco with his red gauntlet/rocket pack color scheme.

Yes! and maybe even some interchangeable force lightning hands My ultimate 6" Black Series wish list would be any of these guys - Luke (Endor bike chase with green lightsaber, removable helmet and poncho...that way we effectively also get a Death Star II version of Luke) Han (ESB in the long sleeve jacket, maybe with his breathing apparatus from the "cave" scene) Chewbacca (ANH version with the crossbow and a Stormtrooper rifle) Yoda (ESB version with a cane, the backpack, and possibly some other accessory like his pot or something) Luke (Dagobah attire with his supply chest, lightsaber/blaster, and swappable hands for "Force" positioning) Leia (Either ANH with blaster, or ESB with a blaster.

They could even do a ROTJ Boba Fett re-deco with his red gauntlet/rocket pack color scheme. Great list. I'd love to see an Endor bike chase Luke, in fact, any Endor outfitted characters. Endor is one of my favourite places/scenes in all of Star Wars. I'm really hoping the Biker Scout (with speeder bike) comes out sooner rather than later! They already confirmed it, but it was quite a while ago, so I'm expecting it to come out sometime this year. My hopes on spring! |

After hitting 3 Targets and a TRU today I have to say Hasbro needs to rethink how they pack females. They should switch females to one per two case figures or this line won't make a series 5. Between those 4 stores I saw 3 Han, 17 Greedo and over 35 Leia. TRU alone had 4 pegs filled with only Leia.

Merry Christmas!
I got Han Solo, Sandtrooper, and R2D2 ! I love all 3 of them. The Sandtrooper is so poseable. R2D2 is as fun as ever. and Han Solo is a cool as it gets.

When is wave 3 slated to hit? Also, how long does each wave take to hit retail after the initial shipments?

So I was checking toysrus.ca, and they no longer list Star Wars Black Series figures. I find that kind of odd, the website has listed them, whether they were in stock or not, since the Series came out. I don't know what to think of this. It doesn't mean that TRU doesn't carry them anymore, right? Maybe they are just out of stock and stuff.. :\

When is wave 3 slated to hit? Also, how long does each wave take to hit retail after the initial shipments? I haven't seen any specific date for series 3, other than January. I've been preordering through spamS. For series 2, my preorder came in on 10/23, which was a surprise because I thought they were scheduled for November. I think most Targets had series 2 before Mid-November. Series 1 was on shelves for Kmart and Target's fall reset and I was buying them in-store a few days before receiving my spamS preorder. |

Thanks for the info. I only ask because I wound up ordering Wave 2 from eBay and literally a week after they came in, they started popping up in stores everywhere around me so I may just wait for retail. |

So I was watching Star Wars IV today for what has to have been at least the 40th time in my life and I noticed something funny that I never noticed before. When they are trapped in the trash compactor and the Stormtroopers enter the control room the Trooper on the right smacks his head into the door. lol
In all the times I've watched it that was the first time O ever noticed it. lol

I remember reading about the mistakes in the trilogy on IMDB then going back and seeing them for myself. A lot of things I had never noticed in there. |

Thanks for all the compliments everybody! Really glad it was entertaining. These new 6" figures are incredible to animate with.
Thats hilarious that the stormtrooper bonked his head, I've never noticed it in the movie but have seen it on Youtube.
I was also wondering when Wave 3 would come out, and so far I haven't found any official news yet. But I am feeling that it will come out in 2 weeks or so.
