@red_ogre Digitigrade. One of those ridiculous words that lives permanently in my head.

Bummer they don't have an accurate look to the figure. I wonder if part if it was not wanting to animate digitigrade legs on the actor. (Given how much they spend on CGI probably not a good reason, but I wonder how much of a role Captain Brutus plays in the show in the first place. Legit curious if he's a one-off alien or a significant supporting cast member.)

It sounds like next year we are getting a newly sculpted ANH Han Solo and Chewbacca.  I'd be in for those for sure.  I mean, I always want new characters we haven't got yet, but we are getting updates of Luke and Leia from ANH next year.  So, might as well have updated Han and Chewie too.

Also, I got in Momaw Nadon finally.  Excellent figure.  It just makes me want more crazy Original Trilogy characters like Garindan Long Snoot, Lak Sivrak, Ree-Yees, Ishi Tib, Lobot, and Bo Shek.

@supercamel-1982 Where did that get teased? I must've missed it. I'd definitely be down for a new Han. My ANH Han is still from a few releases back (maybe even pre face printing); he looks a little out of place now, let alone with the new Luke & Leia.

Man... if that Howler mount was a black series offering I'd be hard pressed not to order multiples.    I love me some creature companions and mounts and that one is a good looking wolf type dude - but I'm not a 1/18 guy.

@joshsquash729 

YouTuber Lukenessmonster covered it.  He said that it was something posted on one of Yakfaces social media pages I believe.  It was someone from YakFace that posted it somewhere.

My Shriek Hawk 2 pack shipped from WalMart and is due to be delivered today. Going out of town today for the weekend, so they may have to wait a bit, but glad to have them crossed off the list. I think that's it for me in terms of Black Series for the year. Crazy, but exciting to think.

Mine shipped as well. With the three Shriek Hawks all in hand, I may have to rethink one of my shelves and just make it into a Mandalorian enclave.

Awesome trio of reveals today! Really loving Sebulba, one step closer to Black Series Watto!

Oh joy! Prequel love!

Sebulba?! He gets his helmet Hasbro. In package look fills the box. So damn cool! 

Shaak Ti is cool but I’m jazzed for Illuminara Unduli! That pretty much does it for me. Barris Offee and Watto away from making my most wanted Prequel figures.

Creatures. I need more creatures in BS scale. 

MCM wins the con reveals thus far.

Thwipp!

It's been a while since they revealed something that had me legitimately pumped, but two Jedi and a prequel alien? Sold. I hope Luminara means Barriss is around the corner, too. 

@prophet I would love to see more creatures in this scale. I was a little bummed to see the riding wolf aliens were only in the smaller scale they revealed last week (blanking on the creature's name) but I was just messing around with the old dewback and tauntauns and marveling at how long it's been since we've gotten something like that in Black Series. That Dewback is a work of art.

What incredible reveals!  Anything from the Prequels is what I want most, but especially Prequel Jedi.  Shaak Ti and Luminara are two must have Jedi, and it's so nice to get them both at once.

Sebulba is great too, but Shaak Ti and Luminara just blew my mind.

From what I can see, the only reuse will be their legs (the boots look the same in promo images). Everything else is new from torso to arms, and those great textured skirts I loved from ALL the way back to their 3inch scale figures from Revenge of The Sith (In WHAT?? 2005??). Both Amazon exclusives for 2025, and with real care given to the details and movie accurate colours.

Been a long time since Star Wars black stole the show anywhere.  All three are excellent and will be excellent additions to the collection.
