Star Wars Black Series

I absolutely want Kleya and Jimmy Smitts should be the first Black Series Bail Organa figure. I also want Black Series figures of Pao and Moroff. We never got Black Series figures of them during Rogue One, even though they got 3.75" figures.


Partagaz would make a great figure too. I love having Imperials.

I would love to see Pao and Moroff. Also Francis McGee's unnamed rebel from Rogue One because I want a Francis McGee action figure.

Partagaz just feels like a PERFECT easy to do Imperial whose buck could be reused to Hasbro's content for years with alternate heads.

Agreed on Partagaz. I also STILL want Tubes.

And I keep looking at that ISB figure and wishing he had a trooper helmet.

The helmeted version will come out a year from now as a Pulse exclusive in a two-pack with a named character you already own and would never need more than one of.
 
Yeah, after finishing the masterpiece that is/was Andor, Syril and Kleya are my biggest wants (well, needs, really). Partagaz is a close second, and one I can see them doing fairly easily, given the different Imperial Officer parts they have. Two Tubes is definitely up there as well- it feels kinda criminal we don't have him yet. At the very least, maybe for Rogue One's 10th anniversary next year, but hopefully before. Same with Melshi and Raddus- they're not ones I need, per se, but I'd gladly take them if given, and they seem like perfect candidates for an anniversary wave.

If ever there was a case for a swappable head, it would be for Bail, but it really depends which version they do. I'd love one of the more combat-focused jumpsuit/shawl that they did for his ROTS figure, but that would obviously only require one head. If they do a robed version- preferably his Yavin look, I'd want both a Smits and Bratt head. I was fully prepared to not like Bratt in the role, or at least have a hard time adjusting to the recast, but I really didn't. He still had that same stern warmth that Smits seemed to carry. I'm sure double likeness rights would make it extra tricky, but at the very least, they could save some money on body re-use.

It’s crazy, isn’t it? SW fans a couple of years back: Kleya who???

The internet today: Kleya the GOAT, the 3 person squad

She stole the show for me, just brilliant.

That was admittedly me. I remember after season 1, I couldn't even remember her name, and looking at her on the poster, I kept thinking I wanted more from her. Even this season up until these last 1 or 2 arcs, I kept thinking "I remember hearing she was one of the standouts of the season, but we haven't really seen much more of her." Obviously these last couple episodes proved me wrong, and really just goes to show you that all it takes is one good moment for characters to really stand out. I'd take a Kleya and Granny Alien spinoff any day!
 
I kind of wonder if Kleya was expanded more in Season 2 because the creative team realized what they had in the actress - this was her first role out of school I believe and Gilroy has said he leaves himself pieces he might pick up and extend later, so expanding Luthen's assistant in the second season to take advantage of having such a charismatic performer deserving of a script highlight that wouldn't be a surprise.

It is cool how much she's taken the internet by storm though.
 
It looks like the Obi Wan and 212th Clone Trooper 2 Pack will be shipping soon from Pulse. I guess that and some TVC items are getting ready to ship.
 
Awwwwwww shit! Get your towels ready, it's about to go down.

I just got Shaak Ti and Luminara Unduli in the mail. I have been eagerly awaiting these two, and they didn't disappoint. Perfect prequel jedi figures. These two look amazing and the soft goods on them were handled beautifully. Two of the best-looking Black Series figures yet.

Now if Hasbro could just knock out about 20 more Prequel Jedi, I'd be good to go.

Thanks for getting "I'm on a Boat" stuck in my head. I'm just picturing Shaak Ti and Luminara recreating the music video now.

They really do add a little "somethin' somethin'" to the shelf. I've had them for a few weeks now and can't stop staring at all the prequel Jedi; they're such cool designs as is, and these two ladies really tie things together. Still quite happy with how the softgoods turned out, too. I know skirts are arguably the easiest thing to do and have look natural in soft goods, but still- they just feel pretty perfect from head to toe.
 
I think both of the ladies are arriving today from Pulse and just adding an agreement that the prequel Jedi really do something special on the shelf. I have Ki-Adi-Mundi, Kit Fisto, and a few others sort of permanently in dramatic poses on display and the shelf could use some gender diversity so I'm psyched to get these two to join them.

I got shipping notice for the Obi-Wan two pack and I'm wondering if armored Kenobi will be the one who topples the final Kenobi series figure as my display Obi-Wan. The costuming on that show, for the man himself, really was top shelf for depressed Jedi.
 
Have we had any word about Barriss Offee in the pipeline? I feel like she's got to be hot on the trail of Luminara.
