I'm gonna give mine a purple blade as a throwback to his TPM figure like I did with Plo Koon. He has yellow. I prefer a bit more variety then green and blue for everyone.

Yeah, if anyone on here usually pre-orders with Nerdzoic, link is listed for Ki-Adi. You can pre-order him now.

I'm so excited about this Ki Adi Mundi figure. I'm excited too about the AOTC color panel on the packaging.  Hopefully we get some more AOTC characters and Jedi soon.

I'd really like to see more stuff from EPI, EPII, and EPIII.

Honestly, I really wish the Hasbro Star Wars Team internally would just agree "Let's make 2, first time characters from each of the original 6 films, every year."

Thats just 12 figures.  Think of all the figures they release every year.  I'm just asking for 12 of them to be new, first-time characters, from the original 6 movies. 

I know Lucasfilm wants them making figures of all the new content, and that's fine.  But can we just make sure to get 2 new, first-time characters from each film, EPI-EPVI, every year for a while.

Like in 2025, no matter how many figures you let out, no matter where from in the Star Wars Universe, just make sure to do something like

EPI - Captain Panaka and Ric Olie
EPII - Zam Wessel and Captain Typho
EPIII - Bail Organa and Tarffles
EPIV - Garindan Longsnoot and Bo Shek
EPV - Lobot and Bespin Guard
EPVI- Rancor Keeper and Oola

How hard would it be.  I know we do get some new first-time characters from some of the original 6 films each year, but not many, and not from EACH of the 6 films.

I just started watching Ahsoka so I’m trying to catch up with the figures. Why is Sabine Wren sold out? Can’t find Baylan Skoll either.

@supercamel-1982 I love that plan! It's an easy way to ensure you please almost any fan. Can easily still throw in sequel/D+ figs into waves, since we usually get more than 12 figures a year anyway. Or do the Star Wars version of their Infinity Saga line for Marvel. Yeah, we already kinda do anyway, since most waves cover at least a couple movies/shows, but still. Have a "Skywalker Saga" subline that focuses on either redoing older figures in better ways, or much needed gap fillers, while having the main line continue to churn out products for newer projects or army builders. Marvel just did 8 MCU Avengers figures as an Infinity Saga wave- most were re-use, sure, but they also gave some much needed updates and missing looks. You could easily do 6-8 figure waves- 1 or 2 a year- to fill some missing holes in the Skywalker Saga.

I'd probably go with Nien Nunb and maybe older Mon Mothma for a ROTJ wave, though. Mostly because I really want Hasbro to try and redo the Haslab with actual good tiers this time, and Malakili and Oola seem like logical inclusions for that (I can't see them releasing Oola any other way, unfortunately).

I went through out of curiosity to see how many blades I would need for Luke's blue sabers to replace since the old ones are thin garbage. Since we found that good blade replacement guy on Etsy I was debating on maybe getting a few Luke blades to replace the old ones. Yea... so it's 1 Obi Wan since I have the og RotS from its first release. And then between Luke's saber and the Rey figures since she stole his, it's 10. I need to replace 10 blades for Luke's blue hilt. F me sideways man, I didn't realize I had that many. And I go to try and put a second 1 in the cart, and it says only 1 available. Hopefully dude makes more, but I think I'm only gonna get maybe 5 or so and split them and just not use the other sabers. I can't display more then 1 or 2 of each character right now anyway. But 10 feels like alot...

@supercamel-1982  Great list!

Here's mine.

EPI - Watto and Sebulba
EPII - Poggle the Lessor and Shaak Ti
EPIII - Bail Organa and Wat Tambor
EPIV - Garindan Longsnoot and Snaggletooth
EPV - Lobot and Bespin Guard
EPVI- Nien Nunb and Weequay

Of course your list is way more likely to be made due to tooling costs.  But one can dream 😉

@normdapito I think they are sold out just because of how popular they are.   Balon was one of the best new characters.  A great job by actor Ray Stevenson.

And for that figure you still have a chance at getting one because there is a Wal-Mart exclusive version coming which is basically the same figure that was released previously, just this time he has his cloak.

Sabine, I don't know when she'll get another release but I'm sure she will.  If not from Season 1, then from Season 2 when it comes out, and when the Heir to the Empire film comes out.

Her figures always seem to sell well.  I guess between being a cool character, a Mandalorian, and a Jedi in training she's pretty desirable.

@supercamel-1982 thanks for the info. It’s surprising to me that any Black Series figures are selling out. I feel like I can find just about anyone I’ve been looking for, and since I hadn’t watched the show, I was in the mode of limiting preorders for stuff I’m not attached to. Hopefully I can find them eventually.

Two per film for the Prequels and Original...

Phantom Menace: Queen Amidala, Captain Panaka

Attack of the Clones: Coleman Trebor, Luminara Unduli

Revenge of the Sith: Saesee Tin, Palpatine

A New Hope: Ellors Madak, Bo Shek

Empire Strikes Back: Lobot, Bren Derlin

Return of the Jedi: Nien Nunb, Amanaman

Legit missed the crew here. Glad to see the Fwoosh back online. Props to the team for not giving up and working so hard to get back up and running. 

On topic for the thread: Ki Adi Mundi shipped from BBTS today. Probably, randomly, the figure I want most this year. I just love the old weirdo. 

Oh thank God, we're back!  Collecting toys and not being able to discuss it on the Fwoosh is weird.  I'm so happy the forums are back up.

I got my Amazon Exclusive 3 Pack with Inquisitor Cal Kestis today.  It's a really nice, sleek looking set.  But I didn't know Ki Adi Mundi shipped from BBTS.  That is great news.  I pre ordered two, so hopefully mine shipped as well.  Thanks for the heads up docsilence.

Ki Adi is my most wanted figure this year as well.  he's probably been my most anticipated since he was announced years ago. 

@supercamel-1982 Same. I was legit stressed out when they said he wouldn't be a preorder a while back - I'm okay missing some figures but ol' lumpy egghead here was one I had a lot of nostalgia for.

It was really hard not going to town on May 4th with the sales, especially BS helmets. But I have three Boba helmets and it's seriously more than enough!

I went through a dumb fiasco trying to get a Paploo and ultimately ended up with a TVC figure advertised on Amazon as 6" scale, so I returned it without issue but after it was all said and done, I felt I am not meant to own any ewoks beyond Wicket.
