Good point! I’d definitely feel compelled to get a few Supercommandos and Praetorian Guards. I loved finally getting to see Supercommandos on screen the way Boba Fett was originally envisioned!
Heh, see? It's too easy. Foolish Hasbro! Leaving money on the table as usual.
I really want them to do that moff Gideon in the armor. It looks so amazing. I'm gonna buy 2, and use one for a custom. Do a little repainting maybe and get a different head and helmet. But yea, it looked fantastic and I had so many ideas of things to do when I saw it.
Had a thought about Ki-Adi missing - I wonder if he's in an assortment with Skeleton... Crew? (whatever) figures and that's why he's just MIA - because the series is.
I plan on grabbing Jude Law's character and stealing the head for Yon-Rogg, assuming Hasbro doesn't Hasbro and make that impossible.
But yeah - Hasbro's choices on what to release are baffling.

Ki-Adi-mundi is supposed to be a Fan Channel Exclusive sold alongside the recent Phase 1 Clone Trooper. Both figure come in the same case, 4 to a case of each. Similar to how Padme and Young Anakin are sold.
No idea when Ki-Adi goes up for order though. But since the Phase 1 Clone Trooper already went up for Pre-order with a supposed in stock date of June, Ki-Adi-Mundi can't be too far behind.
That's so Ki Adi though. Always just a little behind.

Interesting. Now I'm wondering, since that's a new business model, if these four figures shipped in a case with unrevealed characters and Hasbro had to separate the wave to sell what they could now. I'll be curious to see how figures from that show are sold.
Pics of the new Fallen Order 3 pack leaked. I know it was never even hinted that the Second Sister would have an unhelmeted head, but man, I wish they'd taken that extra step. I think only some of Cal's armor is new- the rest is all re-use. And either Second Sister doesn't have a cape, or there's a bunched up soft goods cape there- can't quite tell. Luckily, I think this is one I can skip- I can always make that Cal as a custom easy enough by just getting an extra Fifth Brother and popping Cal's head on. Some slight armor differences, but that's fine with me.
Every time poor Ki-Adi gets brought up, I'm reminded of that old meme where it shows where he really is while his hologram speaks with the council- in a strip club. Someone go get the man out of the strip joint, I need him on my shelf!
@joshsquash729 I am tempted to get that set and sell off the Cal and Trooper, heh
@ru1977 The only reason I'd be tempted to get it would be to have an extra Second Sister, which I could then get a custom Trilla head to put on. Inquisitor Cal is cool, but such a small part of the game (been too long since I've played it- I can't remember if he even appears in the main story, or if he's a vision/boss fight that's optional?). Regardless, it doesn't really feel too crucial for me to have. Also feels weird that we've gotten more Cal figures at this point than we have Finn or Poe. Don't get me wrong, I love Cal (arguably more than Finn or Poe), and his changing outfits definitely lend themselves to more figures, but it still feels wrong. At least until we get more main characters from FO/S.

I just can’t see him fitting in, but the Skeleton Crew would be fun:
Free Amaiza!
Man, I thought I'd skip that Gaming Greats 3 Pack, as I have all the characters in the pack. But that Inquisitor Cal looks awesome. I kind of want it just for imagining Cal is turned to the Dark Side and becomes an Inquisitor.
I wish either the Second Sister had her unmasked head sculpt or, they had just given us the 9th Sister instead. But the 9th Sister would have really upped the price of this set I suppose. Since she'd be a Deluxe sized figure.
BBTS pushed back Galen Marek to August apparently. Hope there's nothing wrong with him hitting en masse, considering I probably want 2. And he's been released somewhere already besides the con pack. I knew he'd be a little harder to get most likely, but I'm hoping harder doesn't mean impossible.
Amazon finally shipped Glavis Mando to me yesterday, so I'm done with that wave (minus R5, who I'm waiting to get in the Pit Droid pack). Haven't taken him out of the pack yet, but he looks really nice. With everything I've seen of him, I definitely agree with the "perfect Mando"- he just looks fantastic, and the soft goods are mooch appreciated. Is it just me, or is he ever so slightly shinier than past Mandos too? I quite liked the glossier touches on the Fleet Commander; I certainly wouldn't mind seeing some more shine on armored characters going forward.
Ever since they announced the re-release of TPM, I've been really looking forward to Ep 1. Anakin and Padme even more. Excited to get those in my grubby little mitts.
Got Jabiim Obi-Wan on the Hasbro sale ($13 something) and I'm really glad I did - THIS is the best Ewan likeness they've done. The Walmart exclusive was close, but I had three and his eyes were all printed in different spots and that didn't help. 🙂 But this one looks great and I'll probably swap the head onto the blue shirt body for an ultimate Show-bi-Wan.
Also didn't realize this look didn't have sleeves on the cloak. I like that.
I feel like I hardly open Black Series figures anymore, except the ones in the PFP packaging because I have to know if the paints are good. What a bummer.
