Star Wars Black Series

[docsilence]

Yep, evil. I ~just~ bought Embo.

I've had him a fuckin' week and he's open, package long recycled. So irritated by this. He's not a character I need two of.

 

[NORM]

I just found out I can’t return my extra Zeb and Embo Pulse wouldn’t cancel. I tried at Target with receipts for white box versions, and they’re not coming up as the same item. If I had kept the white packages I opened, I could have swapped them in. Gotta figure out a workaround.

Embo with wolf pisses me off just as much as the rest of you. That is definitely a shitty move. I will probably pass just cos I wound up hating the Embo figure anyway, don’t want to end up with a third I can’t get rid of!

 

[joshsquash729]

Ugh. Shoulda known. Hasbro gonna Hasbro. If there was something even slightly different about Embo himself I may be a bit happier. I guess the softgoods skirt is a plus; the original is a little restricting, but yeah. Dick move on Hasbro's part. Keibu's never getting a single release.

 

[Buttmunch]

Glad I haven’t found Embo at retail yet but yeah, that’s a dick move and I hope they get crap all weekend for that. Be up front if there’s a deluxe version coming later so people can plan their purchases appropriately.

 

[Schizm]

That is a dick move. I haven't opened a single Mando & Grogu figure yet due to lack of excitement but maybe I'll return him on principle.

The SW displays Hasbro creates at cons always make me wish I had all the TVC figs I've bought in the last 10 years on display... and almost none of them are.

 

[TheGillMan]

Well...for ONCE, my being broke works in my favor. Saw Embo at Target and almost snagged him, but decided to wait until payday. I guess I'l wait a little longer!

Okay I know roleplay is not big here but I only just now saw that they are going to have a SW:BS roleplay Thermal Detonator later this year!!!! FUCK YEAH!!!! I love some of the roleplay items offered from the different Hasbro brands, and definitely one of my recent favourites was the Green Goblin Pumpkin Bomb. This will fit right in on the shelf beside it.

Oh and the Captain Enoch roleplay helmet looks pretty good as well.

I just checked and purchased Embo at Amazon so have until 1 August to return and the M&G Remnant AT-RT driver only picked up one from GameStop. I wouldn't be surprised that the SW team doesn't get booed tomorrow during the panel with the Embo/Keibu reveal.

 

[Mannie_Bothans]

Seeing that Embo... *harsh times christian bale gif*

 

[Super Camel]

I'm lucky here, because I never bought Embo just because I was bummed out, he didn't have his wolf. But now, he does, and I'm buying it. But to not just let the Embo with Wolf out immediately was such a dick move.

 

[TFitz]

Add me to the pissed off people about Embo. I figured he and his wolf would eventually come, but not for at least a year or so since the wolf would be more all-new tooling. I was livid when I saw it was coming now. 100% shitty move by Hasbro.

 

[ChrisLyne]

Yeah. Cheap move and, as much as I would have bought the set if it had gone up first, I'm not double dipping unless I find it on sale later.

 

[jayjonah]

Anybody know what time is the SW panel. It is today?

 

[Ru1977]

2pm-3pm, pacific

 

[Reefer Shark]

Definitely a low blow from Hasbro. But after seeing the price on the new set, Im good....
