Wow, looks great. It's almost like it was made for him. I gotta find mine.
Thanks for posting that.
Pulse delivered my Momaw yesterday an I love him so stupid much. The vintage figure was honestly one of my very favorite Star Wars toys - like out of all proportion and reason. So happy to finally have him as a 6" figure. He just kicked a bunch of namby pamby Hasbro Power Rangers off the shelf and told them that spot was his now.
I didn't know they were a thing, but I found a couple Republic Commando Gaming Greats Battle Droids at a Gamestop I don't usually go to on markdown for like $15. I'm surprised any BDs got marked down at all. It was cool to find 2 of them for that price though. They're like a silver with some brown dirt or rust or something on their bodies. They look pretty cool honestly. I wonder why I never knew they were a thing. I knew the Battlefront 2 white BDs existed. But not these things. It's always nice to get more BDs. I kinda wish I would've gotten a white 1 or 2, but it's ok, these ones look cooler imo, and are from one of the best SW games they ever made.
Porch pirates STOLE MY MOMAW NADON.
I was working at a comic con the house sitter was out for a bit and when she got back the package from Pulse (AND 96 CANS OF CAT FOOD) were ganked off the steps. Sold out at Pulse and Amazon so I just preordered a new one from BBTS and have to hope they deliver.
For some reason I'm in a region UPS and Fedex won't guarantee delivery, either. And of course the security cameras are wifi and weren't fast enough to catch the guy. Gonna have to buy one of those boxes with a code for the delivery guys.
I really hope Acolyte not getting renewed doesn't mean we won't get some more figures. Some of these guys have to already be in the works.
I’m sure they’ll make the Stranger still. There’s one more mystery figure for next mainline wave. Could be Smilo Ren.
Momaw Nadon is awesome. Feels just as great as the Bith musicians to have. His Power of the Force 2 blaster was made for this BS fig. Just so good!
Thwipp!
Digging all the Hammerhead love. Glad it's not just me that this figure brings so much childhood love for.

That's so f'ing annoying! I sometimes think when my Amazon packages are misdelivered (happens way too often) what the people think when they open the box and find a toy inside. And if they just throw it away, open it and play with it then throw it away, or if it goes right on Ebay.
Definitely bummed to hear about the cancellation of The Acolyte. I quite liked it, and with the unanswered questions that would've undoubtedly been explored in season 2, it's a bummer that it got canned before exploring those interesting plot threads. Luckily we had Vernestra, Bazil, and Kelnacca in the works, or else I fear Hasbro would've pulled a TROS and just abandoned figures for the show. Luckily, I think Darth Smiley proved popular enough that they'd be foolish not to do a figure of him, especially when they have the helmet already planned too. YakFace said he's not the mystery figure for the next wave, so it sounds like he's still a ways off. But beyond that, who knows? Torbin seems less likely now, and he was already kind of an uncertainty. I do hope some of the unresolved threads can be picked up in either a book or comic or something down the line.
Let me chime in on the Hammerhead love. He came yesterday, and he is wonderful. This is EXACTLY what I want from Black Series: home-run 6” versions of the original 80s figures/characters, *especially* the non-human weirdos.
. . . and I also want them to do a “vintage style” release of ol’ Momaw in blue clothes.
Having had Momaw a little bit now, my only complaint is his color combination. It doesn't necessarily have to be blue (though that's probably ideal) but I wish his tunic was a brighter shade or was a color that stood out from brown a bit better. You look at him on the shelf and he comes off as just a big 'ol hunk of brown with a reddish neckerchief.
Maybe his skin should be a bit lighter?
Maybe I should get better lighting?
He's still the best Black series pickup for me in a long time.
Heh, now Yakface is doing this:
Honestly, I'll be surprised if they don't make that figure. I imagine he's in the works already, but it'll be an easy win for their site I guess.

For sure... but he has to be full leotard, no skirt
@docsilence that is awful. Sorry you have to deal with theft.
