Star Wars Black Series

Could be fun to pair the no-nonsense Dooku with someone just utterly nonsensical like Jaxxon or Hondo as well. Part of the fun of Star Wars are those unlikely pairings, and for the most part, you can justify almost any of them!

I'm tired and my brain read "Hondo" as "Holdo" and y'know - that doesn't sound awful. ;)

Anybody else get their Kyle today? I like him. Sort of meat and potatoes good figure. Nothing fancy, but I dig him. For reasons I can't explain, I kinda want to get a brown cloak or poncho or something for him. Just feels like it'd look goo don him.

I got mine yesterday and REALLY like him, but you're right, he needs a Jedi cloak or poncho just to spruce him up a bit. I kinda want to get a stray one from one of the acolyte characters to see if it sharpens him up a bit.

Unrelated, Sigourney got bumped up to March 25. I have NO idea when she was originally supposed to ship but Amazon says she'll be here in a month.

Me!! I love him!
Young Dooku is also amazing. They even got the hair/sideburns perfectly correct for the “era” of Christopher Lee they are pulling from.

Between Dooku, Kyle, and Quinlan, this might be my favorite wave of the year. Seventh Sister is also excellent. The SWBS team absolutely killed it with this wave.

I have to admit, even though I'm trying to limit myself to just Kyle, this whole wave is startlingly good. All killer, no filler. I really REALLY want Seventh Sister, but I worry if I grab one Inquisitor it won't stop until I get them all. I need to pull out my Dark Trooper to have him face off with Kyle though, that has to happen.

Yeah he's begging for just... something. It's not like he's missing anything per se, but he can hit these nice elegant poses and it just feels like a little extra would take him even further. I feel like a Lando-style cape is what's in order. Something in the color of a Jedi cloak or robe, but with a less space-monk cut and more rakish.

I pulled out the rest of the inquisitors to line them all up when I got her and if you're going to get just one, Seventh is the best of the bunch - smoothest articulation, best face sculpt, all that.Though they look cool AF lined up together.

Thing is, Kyle is easy. I've got a Dark Trooper, I've got him, closed loop unless they start making folks like Jan or Jerec or Tavion. If I grab Seventh Sister I gotta pick up a Kanan or Rebels Ashoka at least. It's a slippery slope...
 
Here I am over here, feeling very neglected that all this reaching into the SW lore hasn't gotten us even a single Imperial Knight. I'm afraid the relationship to Cade Skywalker, a character I think they want to pretend never existed because of the ST, might be hampering any engagement with that part of the mythos. And it's very upsetting. Imperial Knights are some of the baddest ass looking characters in Star Wars.

They got into Star Wars Miniatures and are amazing.

So did Cade Skywalker.

Twice.

I unironically love that game just for the depth of characters it covered. Basically my ideal SWBS line is every character from that game, plus the original animated characters. Give me that combo and I'll be happy for life.
