The Black Series 6" Figures / Re: 2021 HasLab Black Series Rancor
« on: December 7, 2021, 05:26 PM »
I can only speak for myself but scale absolutely was a huge factor and why I didn't ever plan to back the Rancor and I love the BS line. So ignorant to say that's everyone's belief may be true but it at least cost then my SW money. I think it's a fair part of the argument

I'm buying. I like the army builder / scene aspect. Price is fine. What pictures does hasbro have of the people being "forced" to buy these? Do I want an ongoing line where they produce 15 a year? Probably not. Hasbro must love suckers like me. Are we wishing the fig was all new? No figs and just accessories? Not made at all?

Long live the 3.75 as expensive Haslab projects. I laugh that it means anything else in relation to 6". Long live basic line BS figures too!

Put me in the camp that thinks upscaled U/Y/B Wings would be cool but is just fine with what we have at least from a Haslab perspective.

The last bunch of waves of BS and upcoming waves are amazing. The repaints mixed in between don't change that. I wish 3.75 would get some of the figs BS has.

I feel like that's exactly what it proves. The rancor was worth $250. A lot of people assumed they'd get some combo of Oola, Malakili, Giran etc that would be worth the other $100. Oops. So they are bailing.

I'm a member of the MN Toy Posse on Facebook. And what it seems like to me is if you're a 3.75 collector then you're hard-core into Star Wars and have been for a long time. There's then people like me who collect both. Then there's a group that only collects 6" and they like SW but are far from all in on it. They've seen the movies. Like the Mandalorian. And collect Black Series figures because they collect toys in general, i.e. I just read someone say about a post showing a WM with the Koska Reeves figure "I need that blue Boba chick".

So long story short I don't ever see that part of the collecting community spending $350 on a SW toy. Whereas the 3.75 collector will shell out for everything.

I collect both lines. I am just fine finding space for a barge and Crest that don't have representation otherwise. I'm not ok finding space for a rancor that I have what I consider a more than adequate representation of already. This is just a relatively easy pass for me. It would probably take 4 to 5 unlocked new to BS figures to make me cave.

I bet there'd be plenty of bitching that "I don't wanna be forced to buy that playset just for a new figure." There's always someone ready to complain. I just like the playset.

The creatures even with shipping was a no brainer for me. I'll hope for individual release on other sets.

What Nick said. My brain can't wrap itself around funding this Haslab when I haven't received the last one yet.

Too many repaints for me. I think I'm just in on the kowakian monkey lizards set
