I really have no idea how to label these waves anymore, so let's just go with TROS Wave 1 (even though it's part J:FO and part TM).

I was excited to think we were getting the Seventh Sister from Rebels and wondered why we never saw a removable helmet... then I finally read that it's from the game.

When I initially saw the report of another female Inquisitor I thought the same. Especially when I saw the helmet. The whole Seventh (Rebels) and Second (SWJ-FO) Sister business is a little confusing if you say or read it too fast.

Got the basic Sith Trooper from Amazon today. One fig down

Yes.
I think the black box looks better in my recycling bin than the First Edition one would have......

Those First Edition white boxes were way harder to find than I expected. Only 2/6 Targets had them and GameStop only got like 1-2 figures per store it seemed, AND wanted $25 for them!
I wonder how many of those they actually made. Definitely inconsistent how they were clustered. Happy I got all 8 but i was sweating it for awhile there.

Interesting, around me the white boxes were all that could be found. No Mandalorian, but the others were easy to find. Did not see the new wave in standard packaging in any of the 6 stores I hit
-
I had no trouble finding the white boxed figures... The first Walmart I hit had them all, but there was only one Mandalorian that I let another collector take (plenty of the regular black/red boxed Mandalorians though). The Target I went to afterwards also had plenty of the white boxed figures and then I found the “Carbonite” Mandalorian there, so got that for the $24.99 price. A second Target I visited (well after the opening hours) still had plenty of the white box figures, including the Mandalorian, so I picked that up as well. Between about three stores in my area, I was able to get the complete first edition wave all for the $19.99 price. What surprised me was the smallish selection between the Targets and Walmarts I visited (one Walmart wasn’t even planning to stock the Star Wars stuff, or so they said) and the fact that a lot of the other collectors I encountered weren’t wholly interested in the Black Series 6” figures or the 3.75” TVC ones. I was certainly one of the few people buying more than a couple of the figures at a given time.
-
I didn't realize there were two repacks in this wave. I grabbed them all, but after getting them home I was a little bummed to see the First Order Stormtrooper was a reissue and the Jawa (Offworld) was just a slightly different color from the previous Jawa. For some reason I thought there were fairly significant differences in these figures from what we had received previously.
-
Am I crazy (yes I'm too lazy to get up and check), but doesn't the original Jawa have plastic robes and this one cloth?
-
They updated the FO Stormie's elbows so that he can better hold his blaster with 2 hands. I saw a great comparison pic somewhere
-

No, both are cloth.

My loose 40th Annivesary Jawa is all plastic.
-
Dang, you're right. Mine is shoved in back of my display and the cloth texture on the plastic made me think it was actually cloth. Maybe I'll have to reconsider keeping the Offworld Jawa now...
-

Yes, he's got new elbow articulation and then I believe it's also a new helmet sculpt on the FO Stormtrooper as well (to match the TLJ Stormtrooper helmets).
-
I cracked open the Offworld Jawa. He looks good hanging out next to my Landspeeder.
After close inspection I couldn't tell the difference between the old and new Stormtroopers so I left the new one in the box to be returned.
I also looked at the new Kylo Ren and couldn't tell any differences other than the red lines in the helmet. I've already got 3 nearly identical Kylo Ren figures and am unsure why I need a fourth that isn't really meaningfully different.
Has anyone cracked open their new Kylo Ren and compared the differences and think its worth keeping, or have most skipped this version? I think I'm bringing the new one back.
All the other figures from this wave are really solid, although I wish they would have done something different with D-O's stand. I wish it was clear with a "foot" peg or something, or just built it in to the figure. I'm pretty sure half the people won't even realize there is a mini-stand in the packaging, or they'll easily lose it.

I hope we get some reason as to why Kylo is so attached to the helmet to rebuild it after smashing it to pieces. Does he find his more intimidating this way than this scarred man-child?

JJ talked a bit about Kylo's helmet in the TROS issue of Empire magazine that came out last month.
I'd post it here, but I know some folks here at JD are spoiler-sensitive so best not to discuss it in the action figure forum.

I am so glad I saw this, thanks for mentioning this. I opened my Rey today and tossed the packaging and did not notice the little stand. I had to dig thru a lot of recycling to find the inner tray, thankfully the little stand was taped to the tray. Could have gotten messy :D

The Fwoosh posted a great video review (https://youtu.be/t_tv5i5AeJ8?t=120) of Wave 1 that details a lot of the differences. Biggest thing with the Stormie is it has the new helmet sculpt, and updated elbows so that you can make it hold the blaster with both hands more naturally
-
Thanks for posting Diddly. The Stormtrooper definitely doesn't have enough differences for me to care to spend $20.
I'm still torn on the Kylo Ren and the helmet. If I only had one other Kylo Ren I'd easily pull the trigger on this, but I've already got three others that are all essentially the same figure with a slightly different head and/or cape.
-
I'm passing on the Stormtrooper. I agree with Dave in theory on Kylo. But I felt having the "red" helmet was worth it. BUT that's it. So if they make another helmetless one or battle damaged or the scene in ROS where he is wearing a Whisperers' face (sorry just posted on Walking Dead thread) I'm out.
-
I bought the First Order Stormtrooper over the weekend. I had passed on it earlier, but when I saw it Saturday this Stormtrooper was in the First Edition box. This was one of the first times I've even seen those boxes, and the only ones I found were Rey, the Offworld Jawa and the FO Stormtrooper. And since I already bought Rey and the Jawa I passed on those in the First Edition boxes.

It is funny, at least locally, how little of this wave I saw outside of Force Friday. Sure there are the usual suspects that hung around a little longer, but honestly I think I’ve seen the second wave more frequently at this point. One of my nephews was telling us what he wanted for Christmas (age 8), and he specifically told me “Black Series Mandalorian”, knowing that I’m the Star Wars uncle. We would love to get him one, but they are nowhere to be found. I took a look at eBay and even the normal version seems to be hitting $40-$60. It would be nice to see more shipments, or at least figures like Mando slipped into current assortments on the lead up to Christmas.

Agreed - I think this wave was not in circulation as long as it probably should have been. The 2nd Sister and Cal Kestis would be great to have around now that the game actually hit and someone might think "oh hey, I really like this game, would be cool to go out and get the main character's figure". And while I know a lot of folks groan when it comes to Rey and Kylo Ren - the fact that they are completely missing from the shelves leading into the theatrical release of TROS is kinda strange.
-
I finally decided I could not bring myself to open the white boxes, so I have been looking around for some of the first wave black boxes recently as openers.
Was really surprised I could not find a Kylo Ren anywhere. Figured him to be a sure fire peg warmer. In fact, I see more of Wave 2 out there than Wave 1 now it seems like.
