That is actually a really good point and it's too bad that nothing really came from it as I would buy the heck out of Rouge Squadron

As for Legends spoiling us "the last few years" with double jointed elbows...they've been spoiling us FOREVER with that except for the female figures anyways. I don't heavily collect black series anymore unfortunately, but when characters from the OT get released I will generally still buy those. This Luke is still probably the best Luke in the line, with the Bespin version not too far behind in the rearview mirror.

It still a bit odd to me that Maul was released in the first wave and don't think I have not thought about trying to sell mine, but as with Luke I have been waiting all this time to crack em open, it would be a shame.
As for The Black Series figures, I will continue to buy them as they continue to make them. I just wish they would stop with the massive vehicles.

Wish I had the Black Series 6" scale Yoda though. That's one of the only ones I don't have yet that I wish I had. Got Maz Kanata, but haven't taken her out of the box yet either.

Yoda and Anakin are the one two non-exclusive figures that I missed out and it pisses me off as they are so expensive now and quite frankly, not even worth it!
