Here's a picture of their latest additions. The rest is the age of Apocalypse and eternal figures no one wants.

Re: Star Wars Black Series discussion

Just grabbed Ahsoka today. Amazing little figure, and easily my favourite version of her made by Hasbro to date. The swivel boots are a major plus too. Those Lekku though; I'd have thought they'd repeat what they did with the WM version in giving the rear tail a slight flowing motion in the sculpt to help rotate the head, but alas. Speaking of the WM version, I really hope they go back and revisit that figure soon; the level of reuse was and still is pretty insulting, especially compared to the love they put into this new one.
Any how, love the face on this new figure, and I think they did an amazing job hybridizing her face between the toon version and Rosario Dawson. Hasbro really needs to step it up with more PT-CW Jedi though man; we need Bariss, Luminara and Shaak-Ti!!!

Glad to see you decided to get her. She's great despite the flaws. We are supposed to be getting ki adi mundi this year so at least that's something. Although I think we'll probably get Kit Fisto and Plo Koon again before the 3 you mentioned. They have the head sculpts and hand sculpts for those 2 so they would only need to make new bodies. Plus the originals for those figures ended up being mediocre cause the amount of re-use which is sad cause those head sculpts were so good.

Agreed on all points! The level of reuse this line gets is pretty insulting and a shame really, because this scale is literally made for highlighting all the unique details of the characters.

Picked up Black Series Krrsantan at TRU. While still overpriced, I got him for $35 since they had him in the wrong spot and had to honor the price.
