Star Wars Black Series

Misty and Cav came in today. Wasn't expecting them so soon- forgot how quickly Pulse can move. Haven't gotten around to opening it, but they look pretty darn nice even in box. Felt oddly nostalgic seeing the comic art on the box too- feels like we haven't gotten a comic figure in a long long time. Hoping for the rest of the Squad; would be cool if they'd go back and redo Kreel and Mic on the new trooper body as well.
 
Man, Im so PO'd at Hasbro... My order for Misty/Cav was on a card that I had cancelled recently. So I got one of those dreaded "charge attempt failed" emails where they tell you to change your payment option and they'll try to re-process payment. Did everything that they asked immediately, switched to Paypal payment direct from a bank acct to be extra safe because I REALLY WANT THESE TROOPERS!.

Then a few days later of course, I get a cancellation email. They didn't even try to re-process payment. I know this because it would have worked.. I pay a premium for this like an idiot too.
 
Oh wait, they're back in stock??? lol I need to use my eyes more lol

Ok, ordered - the world can relax again hahahaha! (it was out of stock yesterday, they're messing with me) 😝

Happy to help. Yeah, it'd be a whole different frustration if it was gone. But as I read your post I went to check for myself.
 
Got Misty and Cav today and just opened them. I really love the little details they put into these guys and I hope we see the rest of the squad soon. I've got delusions of setting them up for photos squaring off with the Bad Batch. My only complaint is both of their sheaths for the knives are not as snug as Hasbro does for Classified - I never worry I'm going to lose a knife in a sheath or gun in a holster with the Joes but I worry if Cav takes a shelf-dive I'm never seeing those knives again. BUT! He grips the knives better than I expected. Black Series has always struggled with firm grips on tiny props.

Also got Plo Koon and Wolffe. The head / face paint apps are really nice on both - Wolffe's bionic eye is really clear and cool to see. I think Plo's mostly on a Qui-Gon body and is a little dated but that's fine. His waist ratchet is stiffer than most of my black series figures, but I think a little heat will fix that.
