Star Wars Black Series

YakFace is teasing a release codenamed "Cyclone" that should be shown off tomorrow, it seems. Price tag of $59.99, so either a deluxe figure or two pack. Feels a bit too low a price to be Rotta. Interested to see what it turns out to be.

Man, I wonder what it is. It could be Rotta, but that does seem low. I know an AT-RT with driver/pilot is supposed to be coming. But with a figure being $27, could they have a 6" scale AT-RT in there for just 33 more dollars? I think not.

Pong Krell? But $60 seems too high. What's Grievous cost when we get him at this point, like $40? I don't know. Maybe just a 2 pack. Maybe it's a deluxe diorama closet to hang all those shirts coming with the upcoming May the 4th exclusive Troopers and Battle Droid.
 
A 2 pack of some of the new mercenary droids from M&G could be cool. There's 3 kinds, and they're all sorta mish-mashed with parts from other droids and some clothing. Could do like they did with the Shriek Hawks and do 1 in a single wide release, and the other 2 in a 2 pack.
 
Ooooh, well there ya go! Wasn't on my list, but I'm not mad! I was actually just thinking the other day how outdated the old Nihilus is. Not super familiar with Traya, but those floaty effects for the sabers are super cool. Consider it bought!

While they're at it, can we get some updated Revans? Throw 'em in a 2 pack and call it a day!

I don't hate the existing Nihilus but I'll buy a two pack for Traya, truly the scariest character in KOTOR2.

The two Revans are literally two of the only figures in my collection who have NEVER been in storage. Eternally on display. But I would buy a two pack of light and dark Revan with updated bodies and sabers in a fucking heartbeat. Though I'm still waiting for the rest of the crew...
 
That looks pretty. Preordered immediately. I will grab anything KotoR. If it ever goes on sale i may get a second set. The Treya body might work for my Meetra Surik custom I wanna do with some modifications, and I like those lightsabers. Revan for me is always out too. I don't know if we *need* a new one, the old one still holds up well, but I won't say no to new ones. I'd rather have more crew members though, before updates.

Fuck me sideways that was on my "they'll never give me this" list. Instant preorder. Fuck yeah. I sold my Nihilus almost a year ago now and lately I'd been missing him but kept thinking "no, he can't stand right" and it bothered me so much. Traya, incredible. And they gave her floaty saber stands! Damn that's awesome.

Truly my only beefs with the existing Revans is to really capture his look he wasn't very mobile, but seeing what they did with the Jedi Temple Guard I think he deserves another shot, and I always thought his saber hilts were a liiiittle narrow and insecure in his hands and would like them a bit bigger in a remake. But they would get 60 bucks from me in a Corellian minute if they re-did both color palettes.

Word.

After seeing this two-pack I feel like they could do standard Revan and HK, and then light side Revan and one of the alt HK units you fight.

I'm not trying to justify them getting over $100 from me... but it would work.
 
An aside... with those effect pieces for Traya, that means it would be very easy for someone with a 3d scanner *looks around innocently* to scan those and turn them into printable STLs so you could hover all of Lord Starkiller's sabers.

Honestly, you know what Black series should do? They should take these effects, the effects from deluxe regular Starkiller, and any other effects they've put out (was the force lightning with Palpatine just the electricity or hands too?) and put them in a "Power of the Force" accessory pack.
