I am seeing a few issues with the two troopers from these pics (Dayton has already found a few on our FB Page), but hey its new news!
Speaking of news, they also have listed what this total wave should entail:
Clone Trooper Sergeant 1x
Anakin Skywalker 1x
Biggs Darklighter 1x
Darth Vader Bespin 1x
Biker Scout 1x
Clone Pilot 1x
R2-D2 1x
Pablo Jill 1x
Luminara Unduli 1x
Clone Trooper platform 1x
Stormtrooper 1x
Mara Jade 1x
-
I might be in the minority, but I LOVE the new cards.
-
I wonder if those armored clones and stormies are removable helmet versions and if the biker scout is the ball jointed hip version?
-
SDCC should reveal that. Not too long to wait now.
-
the R2 is a repaint of the R2 that came with the flames and is an R4-G9 mold

I thought so, but hearing from you, the astro expert, seals the deal.

Interesting, must be a similar source.

Love the head sculpt on Mara jade.

Yes, I do agree with you. That Pablo doesn't look bad either. I am thinking its a new sculpt.
-
omg i'm all over that mara jade, the customs possibility is all over te place, just for some descent nude female arms alone are awesome. and i love the red saber.
-
Wow, there is a whole bunch of awesome figures coming out. I hope Mara Jade ain't going to be hard to find like Shae Vizsla.
-
Jade and Pablo are the only things that interest me in that wave, but it's better than the one figure in wave 1 I guess.

Twice as good it would seem Zed! Lets just say its gonna be a fun best action figure of the year CAFN Episode if you don't mind giving us your opinion!
-
Any word when wave 2 hits the retail chains? I'm in California and the wave 1 figures are here, found nothing but Anakin at three stores.
-
BBTS has them for pre-order for an Oct. release.

hmm where is Pablo jill from? Gotta be one of the funniest looking jedi's I've seen in a while, lol Mara Jade looks pretty cool, nice sculpt.

This is actually the second go round for Pablo and this new sculpt looks to me to be much better than the first version which I do believe came out in the first Saga Wave (blue and gold cards). I could be wrong about that though.
-
He was one of the Jedi in the Geonosis arena fight, iirc. Lotta potential for his parts to be used in making others like him!
-
You can now pre-order these on Amazon.com.

Rune you are quite correct. Here is your link:

Sweet, thank you for using our links.

Is that six carry forward figures from wave 1? Why?

Clint, some of that is just the problem with their search query, but it was the best I could do and still get all of the Wave 2 in there and get isy credit if you order.

So far this Black Series is very sub-par. The only figures i'll be getting are a few Biker Scouts and Stormtroopers to fill out my Imperial forces...that's it. The rest have zero appeal to me.
I hope the Stormtrooper Commander comes out like Hasbro have said because i'll get that guy too.
I hope we see the following in the Black Series:
Hoth Rebel Solder (possibly Tamizander Rey or Tigran Jamiro)
General Rieekan (re-sculpt...he needs it)
Captain Piett (re-sculpt...he needs it)
Jawa 2-pack (full soft goods)
Sim Aloo
Bib Fortuna (resculpt....he needs it)
Captain Lennox (good...our first catch of the day)
Cad Bane (realistic version)
Highsinger (realistic version)
Greedo (CW Realistic Version)
Hondo Ohnaka (realistic version)
A New Hope Owen Lars (re-sculpt....he needs it BADLY)
Han Solo: Carbonite (re-sculpt)
Princess Leia: Ewok Village (re-sculpt)
Chewbacca: Hoth Snow Covered (re-sculpt)
Luke Skywalker: Bacta Tank/Hoth Medical Bay
Rebel Commando (an update of the classic Kenner version....he needs to be done BADLY)
That's my 2 cents worth.....I hope the Black Series begins to promise some good characters but going by Hasbros past efforts i'm not too optimistic.
-
Nice to see a good version of Mara Jade finally...
-
Anyone seen this wave yet in the Eastern US?
-
Gotta love that wilde 80s hair ms. Jade is sporting right there O0 Good thing there's the new Black Widow to fix that bbfet
Viperkingdom has her listed, by the way.

I hear it has hit Target Rune, but I haven't seen it in my wallly worlds yet. I just ordered the two I wanted off of Hasbrotoyshop last night as a matter of fact. I will have a big hair Mara soon.

I know I've been off the reservation for months (Sorry guys, divorce is pretty rough) but I just wanted to say I found Mara Jade of all people.

Not here in Pittsburgh. I have a collector friend in Knoxville TN, and he has.

I had wondered what happened to you ole buddy and saw a status update on FB yesterday and wondered. Glad to have you back around. We need you for our best action figures of the year podcast if you are up for it.
And yes, I love that Mara Jade. I have three now in the house with two of em open!
I did see this on the pegs at Kmart of all places, but not at my local walmarts. I just keep getting wave one cases there.
-
I've only seen Wave 1 at the local comic shop and those are too much for me to bite (I know how CS has to work, bt still). There was nothing in wave 1 I "HAD" to have, Mara was a must have though.
The FB status thing is kind of funny but it's also a long story LOL.
On the podcast, I would love to but still haven't got my internet set up. I'm leaching off the library at this moment outside of work which is the only time I can get on anymore. Thus I'm not sure if my internet will be hooked in in time for the podcast.
-
Well we need to get a call in soon so I can catch up and hear the whole story. Once again though, awesome good to see you about zed. And no problems about the podcast I am not even sure what the date is I need to get back to my outline, but I know I had you penciled in to join me and Chad as we went through our top ten figures of the year. If we can't get you in this year, next year for sure.
As for Wave 2, I still haven't seen it yet. My local store doesn't have one Black Series Figure on the pegs. Matter of fact there are only three mission series figures in the entire isle. I am worried at this point that my Walmarts are gonna get rid of the SW Line Up till we see the new movie figures. Kinda like they did with JOE.
