    Star Wars 40th figures...WOW!!!

    I went to Target today and saw these and had to have them....HOME RUN!!! with these figures:

    http://www.starwars.com/news/inside-...series-figures

    Only 4 I have so far are Luke, Leia, Han, and Obiwan. These are absolutely STUNNING!! Unfortunately so is the price $19.99 + Tax.

    Anyone know if the ones I mentioned are the only ones out so far or are there more?

              These are very cool, I like the Tuskian Raider, can't believe it's been 40 years already.

                  They could put a turd in that '77 packaging and it would give me pause, it's even worse when the toys look well done.

                      Fun idea. I'll wait for the discounted price tag though.

                        Would like to pick up the Vader figure with the vintage style "Early Bird" display included, but it's a little pricey.
                        But Hasbro will allegedly reissue the Vader figure in the normal Black Series packaging later this year.

                          I have been a huge fan of the 6inch black series. All but Vader are exactly the same as the original 6 inch release. Vader is spot on Star Wars. I put together an original display of the mail away stand and the 12 figures. Prices on the original figures are really high. I have the original display right next to the new 6 inch display. They look awesome side by side. Next wave is supposed to have Chewbacca, C3PO, Stormtrooper, Jawa, Tuscan Raider and Death Star Trooper. The last 3 having never been done in the 6 inch form, and will finish the display. I believe from there the plan is to continue with the next figures being released like the original line was. I have to admit that it was pretty smart for them to package these figures like they have. I am such a sucker for the retro carding. I will try and take a few pictures of the 2 displays side by side some time this weekend.

                            I'm torn on these. I do love the Kenner cards and the new head sculpt on Leia is very nice. But the rest are just repacks. If they'd do actual Kenner figures on Kenner cards I'd be way more excited.
                            You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...
