Star Wars Black Series

Dash, Leebo, and the Outrider wouldn't make for bad show, even having cameos from some of LFL's most beloved deep fakes.
 
Somehow I've been familiar with him since the 1990s despite never actually playing Shadows of the Empire. He always struck me as a Han Solo character clone, but I have no real idea if that's right.

Intended. Even had his own clone ship, the Outrider.

Also:

Dash Rendar

Dash - Quick

Rendar - Render - Draw

His name is Quick Draw.
 
Very much so. Same with the game. But, as you know, no body = no death.
Nah, the game ending cuts to the Outrider in hyperspace immediately as the Skyhook explodes. Dash correctly decides his life will be much less complicated if everyone thinks he didn't make it out in time.

Eventually, he partners up with Xixor's android, Guri.
 
The Outrider was the unholy offspring of the Millenium Falcon and a B-Wing. It was glorious.
This is a perfect description of the Outrider.

Now I want them to make Guri too. Xizor's lonely on the shelf right now.
 
I canceled both at Pulse, which I may wind up doing from now on. I haven’t been able to place my last three orders due to site errors (something about bad connections or high volume of orders no matter how long after the items go up). I missed out on the Classified C.L.A.W. and MCU Punisher thanks to those shenanigans. Can’t rely on that site.
Hasbro is completely aware their site has a problem and is doing nothing to fix it. I heard it directly from CS after I called and confirmed the reports from others saying the same thing. Hasbro has a broken store which means no money coming in and they don't care. For MONTHS. Conspiracy theories may be appropriate as to why.

Also got the Ronin set on impulse, delivered less than 24 hours later and it is beautiful. Maybe I'll watch an episode of Visions.

Dash Rendar looks to me like a live-action Buzz Lightyear. And now I can't unsee it. His head is too big, also.

Ordered the new Han instantly but is that a good likeness? His eyes are tiny, his chin seems too big and it looks like the scar is there in the in-package shot but not the posed shots. The side of the box doesn't really look like Harrison, either.

I still can't believe they had Hayden there and didn't announce the ROTS Anakin - WTF are they waiting for?!?

My best guess is they're waiting until May 4th to announce more stuff. I'd been so distracted with all the Celebration stuff to remember that it was just a week or two away, but you know they'll have a livestream for May the 4th/Revenge of the 5th (probably the latter, given that it's a Monday, and the focus on the actual ROTS).
 
Shaak Ti just got delivered, and man, does she look great. Such beautiful, vibrant colors. Wasn't expecting her sleeves or skirt to be so long- I dig the sleeves, but I'm getting used to the skirt; luckily it doesn't hinder getting her to stand. She was well worth the wait, and is such a personally fulfilling figure for me on a lot of different levels. I hate to sound like a broken record, but each time I get one of these female figures I wasn't allowed to have as a kid, it really does feel like a part of me gets closure. I don't have to be sneaky about getting her, or worry about fear of punishment. It's a strange feeling, but a great one. Anywho, only missing Sebulba now from the wave, and I'm finding myself oddly excited for him as well. This little mini-wave was such a delight, and gave us figures I think we all thought were farther off.

A great way to celebrate Andor Day! And for those of you who missed them the first time around, it looks like Hasbro is re-issuing the Jedha Patrol Trooper and Range Trooper (with new rocket launcher) tomorrow. I'm tempted by the Range Trooper, only because I like the design so much, but I already have 2, so I may hold off for now.
