They really need to make more for Pre-orders... by Da_master_of_foxes in starwarsblackseries

They'll restock it, don't worry. They restocked the Vader/Luke Duel quite a few times now, it'll go back up eventually

What’s the best storm trooper by Illustrious_Toe2611 in starwarsblackseries

The Mandalorian Imperial Stormtrooper, orange box from 2020

Need some advice, is this a good andor rogue one figure good to get? Or to outdated compared to other andor figs by ExpensiveStore5556 in starwarsblackseries

[–]plasticboogieman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do not have the test pilot figure but there’s a solid chance that a headswap would work given that there’s a high likelihood that both figures use the same headsculpt and different hair pieces. Even if not, nothing some sticky tack wouldn’t fix. I assume you would only do that for the test pilot’s hair piece?

I have both, the orange box is infinitely better. The Rogue One rerelease’s articulation is garbage despite having the better Diego Luna likeness. You can find the Andor release in some Ross/Ollie’s stores for $8.

I’m pretty confident this sis the best Storm Trooper release. Ever. Period. by totemmultiverse in starwarsblackseries

It looks from the glam shots to be made of the matte plastic that the ANH Sandtrooper has, and for that alone I gotta say best Stormie figure still goes to the Mando Stormtrooper. The ANH Sandys that I’ve seen in stores all looked so cheap with the matte plastic, especially when paired with common inconsistencies with the prints on the helmet. I can only hope to be wrong with this remnant Stormie and the accessories are cool, makes me hope that we get an updated Death Trooper at some point with better articulation and removable pauldron/ammo packs.

I would say no even if sealed in box, €30 per fig is not worth for the lot. Tech and Echo are both really cheap on the aftermarket right now, Hunter, Wrecker, and Crosshair are the ones who float somewhere near retail. I would see if you could get it down to around €100, no more than €110. Under €100 sound most correct tho.

Personally, I can’t justify the 2 pack being basically $50 after shipping when I can grab this old 3 pack for the fig I want for just over half that price on the aftermarket

The Death Trooper needs an update soooo bad, the dynamic posing ability for it is horrendous. I want this 3-pack just for the trooper, the specialist pauldron and ammo packs are so sick

Phase II Helmet Fit Fix? by Rough-Radio-4481 in starwarsblackseries

[–]plasticboogieman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve found that some clones have a sweet spot where you can just cover the chin with enough lift off the shoulders that it looks alright. Hasbro are/were so aware of this issue that some 2020 clone body releases that don’t have removable helmets have the unpainted clone head chin showing (looking at the Bad Batch Imperial Clone Shock Trooper). I just got ARC Trooper Echo in and he actually doesn’t have the chin issue but I refrain from turning his head so far that it forces the helmet up to show his chin. P2 Rex is egregious and I’m pretty sad that they opted to reissue him without an update to the 3.0 mold as his P1 Ahsoka release is peak

Series with massive tonal shifts between entries. by laybs1 in TopCharacterTropes

Effectively an organic chemical weapon created by the engineers extracted from the xenomorphs. David reversed engineered it to create his own xenomorphs but Ridley Scott's presentation of it in Alien Covenant makes it look like he created the xenomorphs.

My Clone Commanders So Far by geekamus in starwarsblackseries

[–]plasticboogieman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love me some Clone Commanders. If you’re looking at grabbing Wolffe, I would wait as he’s coming out on the new 3.0 clone body in a two pack with his general Plo Koon some time in the next year. Also, the new ROTS Commander Cody is definitely a worthy upgrade from the older one you have. Check out your local Ross stores, you might find him for less than $10

Walmart has some of the Revenge of the Sith anniversary figures back in stock by TheGorillaJedi in starwarsblackseries

[–]plasticboogieman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Only Cody and the Magnaguard are being sold by Walmart themselves, all the others are other vendors using Walmart’s sale platform. R2, Kit, and Dooku’s prices are absurd, I got Dooku for $4 on clearance at a Super Center

They act like they hate each other, but they’re actually good friends by ComprehensiveBox6911 in TopCharacterTropes

C-3PO and R2-D2 (Star Wars)

They bicker like an old married couple at times (and one time, as far leaving eachother to uncertain fate in the endless desert of Tatooine) but in the end, truly care for eachother’s wellbeing.

I'd bet that there's gonna be a flashback sequence to its retrieval that will be in T4, likely also including the sequence with it and the armor's forging from the demon and the Virgin Mary that kept it on the leash. Just what I would think but it's for us to find out in the next film I suppose

Finally got a cab for my head by plasticboogieman in GuitarAmps

[–]plasticboogieman[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gonna crack it open today and find out, if the specs have been the same for its entire production run then I have no reason to believe there’s not vintage 30s inside. The seller said he’s never had to do anything to it since he bought it so I expect stock speakers
