Cool lineup, definitely.  I'm hoping that the Obi-Wan figure will indeed be an ANH version.  This listing does have a different product code in the etailers listing than the ROTS version of Obi-Wan.  I guess we'll have to wait and see what this new listing yields.

Watch them slap a new mulleted head on the existing Obi-Wan sculpt for an instant lazy Episode II version.

It wouldn't surprise me if they did.  A TPM Obi-Wan might actually be something to consider as a pairing to go with the Darth Maul figure from wave 1.

Pre-Orders are up at BBTS (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/search.aspx?search=2015%20black%2002)

Looks like the case doubles up on Commander Cody... 
2x SW 6INCH CLONE COMMANDER CODY
1x SW 6INCH EPV IG 88
1x SW 6INCH EPVI LEIA BOUSHH

I guess they are expecting him to be the popular one and trying to cut off all the "I can't find Cody" bitching in case there is a 'last wave' effect with this wave being the last one before TFA stuff hits.

IG-88 will be the highlight of this wave for me.

Lolz @ Hasbro trying to cut off bitching.  Never gonna happen.  That's cute that they tried though. :)

Anyone else find it odd they didn't include the TVC figure's mines with the 6" figure?

I have to agree.  I'm only collecting the OT with 6" figures, so Cody is out, but I'm not sure I need another Leia.  Although she does make sense for those wanting to complete the Jabba scene in a different way.

For those wondering, the Pre-Order at EE with free shipping (http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?id=JE-405087801&number=HSA4301J) is back. 

Back up for pre-order at a lot of other places too...

If not only because of collector OCD, I hate when another wave hits before I've seen the last wave

In-Stock at BBTS (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/list.aspx?list=19060).  $70 for the three figures isn't a terrible price.

Actually, now that I have this, it's missing the machete or knife, yet there's the sheath for it on his back.  Plus, the elbow joints are small and I worried they'd snap.  I was disappointed.  Boushh was much better.

He should've come with the knife Steve, you got robbed.  May wanna hit them up for a replacement.

He's got a meat cleaver but not the other one.  The Modern "vintage" figure came with the blaster, rifle and two different bladed items.  This only has one.

EDIT: Well, I looked at the Slideshow pics and they only had the one blade and the blaster holster like the Hasbro 6" one, and I looked at the Saga one in an archive... so now I'm wondering where I got the other blade from?  ???

I don't recall the modern TVC one having two blades Steve?  You sure?

He had landmines, two blasters, and the blade but I thought that was it?

Hmm.  I've had a case of four on preorder since around February or March (and it's still showing up in my preorders), but it still hasn't entered the shipping process.  Individual figures and sets of three are already up for sale as in stock, though?  What gives?  [/whining]  :)

Yeah, I looked through pics and verified it came with one blade.  But now I'm not sure where the other curved blade came from.  I will have to consult with Jayson about who comes with such a knife... if it is indeed Star Wars.

I'm too stupid to figure out where the blade is supposed to go on his back, so I just have it sticking out of his mouth. He can't hold it and I don't get why a robot would have a hole in its head anyway like that.  :-\


edit: after posting this I went back and figured it out. I missed the little slot above the gun sheath. Duh!

Just got my case from HTS.  Along with the Hoth 6" figures.

All were awesome, except my Leia Boushh.  Holy cow is the paint job on mine terrible.  It looks like the paint job on the 3 3/4" figures.  Crossed eyes.  One high.  One low.  Ugh.

I just hope I eventually find this at retail, with a good paint job, that will allow me to exchange.
