Star Wars Black Series

"I sense something. A presence I've not felt since" TAG!

We all thought it was Obi Wan. But it was a tag! A big f***ing Tag! A Tag 10% the size of the Sith Lord himself, just poking him in the back, and occasionally just popping out at his side at random moments. Just another thing the Emperor had added to his suit and cape to leave his Apprentice in agony. Always poking, tickling, and itching.

That tag is screen accurate folks. To scale.

In all seriousness that tag is insane. I was really hoping EC was just screwing with us, and he'd cut it off from something else and tucked it there by Vader as an elaborate Star Wars figure prank. But if Hasbro really put that big ass thing on there, that is just crazy.

The tag is ridiculous. I've never, ever seen that on a figure before. The wire is nice. Mine though... I don't know if it's supposed to be a weight or what but there's a big lump sewn into the hem of the cape on my Vader. Anyone else have that?
What the fuck are we doing here? It's 2025 and Vader is still getting horizontal wrist hinges. At this point no one can convince me it's not malicious.
Luke is great (ish). One vertical wrist hinge, one horizontal. Ugh! I guess. His articulation is really good. Could have done with a thigh swivel, but it's serviceable without one. Paint is top-notch. I love how dirty and disheveled he looks.
The base. That was fun to assemble and incredibly smooth. Everything is uniquely keyed to go into the correct slot. It's stable on very play-friendly. I miss out on most of the Pulse exclusives, but if I was going to get lucky with one I'm glad it was this one.
 
Bummed I missed out on the Bespin Duel set; I do love me a good diorama. It kinda feels like the set came and went without much fanfare; I kept forgetting about it, so forgive my ignorance, but is the Luke all new, or just better paint?
