So the cold weather Fisto now jives a bit with the CW Plo and Echo... I gotta hit Wookieepedia to figure out who the hell Serindipitous is.

He was the "Independence Day" inspired Bounty Hunter from the same episode as Embo. Little dude in a big dude suit. Should make for a very cool sculpt.
-
Ah ok, I remember him now... Well that's neat, I guess. I may pick him up if he's done really well.
-
Seripas - hell yeah!

Wow - Seripas looks great! Rex looks really cool too. Looks like there is a holster on his chest. Fisto, Saese, and surf board trooper pretty meh.
-
Seripas is indeed very neat looking, and a must buy... The rest, I'll gladly be passing on. If Seripas is anything like Embo and Parasitti, he'll pegwarm well and be easy to find.

Curious that they have these listed as Waves 4 & 5. ???
They all look terrific, IMO. Savage is top-notch, Seripas outstanding as hoped, and I was blown away by how cool Saesee Tiin came out. Definitely opener worthy.
That ARF Trooper (Kamino) was the "mystery figure" from ToyFair, so good to see that confirmed.
Great stuff!!
-
Ok, confused again.
So Sandtroopers has a new picture of the carded Stealth Ops Clone (CW57) - looks very cool.
I don't see what that has to do with Commander Blackout. (as per thr front page blurb) I mean, they are separate characters and that is going to be a separate carded release from TRU, is it not?
Is this another one of those Capt Fordo/ARC Trooper Commander deals where the same figure is being identified multiple ways by the online community?
I haven't seen any other sites refer to this figure as Blackout, so I'm just curious where that information originated.
-
Using the card art and helmet deco on the figure (http://www.sandtroopers.com/Spice/posts/stealth_card.jpg) at Sandtroopers, I deduced yesterday (http://yakfaceforums.com/main/2011/05/24/stealth-ops-clone-trooper-aka-blackout/) that this is in fact Commander Blackout (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Blackout_(clone_trooper)). The image that was posted on JediInsider (http://jediinsider.net/g/index.php?mode=view&album=Hasbro%2FClone_Wars%2F2011%2F&pic=05.jpg&dispsize=600&start=0) is a different deco and includes that extra space trooper gear that isn't pictured in that carded Sandtroopers image. There is a report that in the UK there is a listing (in TRU system) for an exclusive Blackout (http://www.toy-palace.com/product_info.php?info=p7043_Commander-Blackout---Stealth-Ops-Clone-Commander.html) coming to their TRU stores (similar to what they, and eventually us, received with the Nikto Guard).
-
Nice detective work there, that is really curious.
So they just slapped the wrong name on the card?
Since the JediInsider image was uncarded, how can we be sure THAT was not Blackout? He does look, well, blacker than the other dude.
I apologize also, because I have no recollection of who those source characters were from the show.
-
It might not be the "wrong" name on the card. If you recall, the exclusive TRU Nikto Guard wasn't named on the card insert or game card but he was on the card back as "Puko Naga". So this could be the same case here.

I know what you mean. I am glad they at least have put some articulation in the CW figures now. Well it's been going awhile now but you know what I mean.
-
Just adding the new pics that popped up...

I like the CW '03 microseries-inspired helmet on Saesee Tiin. I can't figure out what's that on his back though. And how is Seripas supposed to fit on a standard card?! :o
-
I think the fall CW line looks absolutely fantastic- I wish I had started the clone wars collection a little sooner, but I'm sure glad I didn't wait any longer
-
I love Seripas. I know they stole that idea from Men In Black but Kit Fisto was also stolen from them. I am fine with it. I commented in another thread but I love that Rex/Jetpack figure. Kit is ok but I will leave him along with the Stealth trooper.
-
I think they gave Seesae Tiin the wrong color lightsaber.
-
These figures look pretty sharp on display at SDCC, the close-ups of Seripas in particular are amazing. That thing is going to be freaking awesome.
-
Is that supposed to be some sort of jetboard Saessee has on his back??
-
THis wave is ALSO in stock over at BBTS!
-
Sweet... Seripas is pretty much the only CW figure on the horizon that I want. I'll happily add him to the collection next to Embo and Cato.
-
Got my case from HTS today. Seripas is awesome.
Here's a comparison shot between the "Stealth Operations" TRU Exclusive and the W2 "Stealth Ops" version. Much as they look alike, the paint is completely different between the two. Weapons and accessories differ as well.

-
Wow, the TRU one shafted in the accessories department.
-
I know that there are a lotta folks who are fine with the Stealth Ops Trooper being an exclusive, but, to me, I just don't see it... it's very dull as an exclusive IMO.
-
So why didn't Hasbro just call the TRU exclusive Commander Blackout? It rings up on scanners as Commander Blackout, and that's what the peg tags say. Calling the exclusive Commander Blackout on the package would have avoided a fair ammount of confusion all the way round
-
Trademark fees, it would drive costs up..."we could call them by their proper names, but then we'd have to remove the wrist joints." ;)
-

Double meaning on that one. The paint is quite literally duller than his regular version counterpart and I agree - pretty dull figure in having an almost exact replica available elsewhere, and with more accessories to boot. Changing the name wouldn't have added anything for me, since I'm opening both anyway. I'm just glad TRU isn't charging a lot more for these like they used to. If I had paid $15 for it, then found the basic version for half that, I'd be a little miffed.
-
Stopped by TRU this morning still hoping to find the impossibly HTF Seripas, only to see that they're already ripped down the front of store display. This is the same store that never ever got in the 4 way shipper with the new Wave 11 swag. Utter, abject failure. >:(
I can't even remember anymore if this wave has been spotted outside of TRU, but it's probably a moot point since none of the Walmarts are stocking new figures around here and outside of 2 Targets they are stagnating badly too.
Apparently Richmond is not on the Hasbro Reps' map, because there have been NO pulls at any of the stores around here either.
I've officially moved past frustration to indifference. Well, almost.
-
Found this wave at a MO Target, minus the Savage and Seripas (I know the Seripas was picked up by a fellow collector).
