Star Wars episode 9 is right around the corner and while the new movie has been getting a lot of covergae in the Black Series line, the past few movies haven't been forgotten and are still getting figures every so often. One that got a ton of love at the very start was The Force Awakens! It had a huge product launch and so nearly all of that movie has been covered! Because of that, making my most wanted list for this film has been a bit harder than the others, but I've still picked out 5 from the characters in the movie that I want in the Black Series line!

5. Winter jacket Han
This would be finishing outfits more than anything, but the 3.75 scale action figures got a version of Han wearing his blue winter jacket from the latter part of the movie, and possibly the 6 inch scale could too? I'm not sure how well it would sell, since it is such a short lived outfit, but the original old Han sold well enough and a photo real old man Han might be enough to bring in the buyers.

4. Blue dress Leia
Yet again, another instance of just finishing up outfits. The main characters of the film had all of their outfits covered aside from Han and Leia who both only received one figure, despite being central characters to the entire saga. Just like Han's winter jacket, Leia only wore her blue dress at the end of the film. The 3.75 inch scale managed to get a figure of it, and I think the 6 inch line doesn't have enough female figures in general. Leia is always welcome to the line, and a photo real older Leia is much needed.

3. Unkar Plutt
This character would be a candidate for deluxe scaled release? Possibly? Unkar Plutt is arguably the only actual character from the film who hasn't gotten a figure in the 6 inch scale yet. Maybe that was because previously he was a bit larger and wouldn't fit in the 20 price point, but now there is the deluxe line of figures for 30 dollar that this alien could fit right into.

2. Sidon Ithano
There wasn't a ton of alien designs from the movie that stuck with me, but this was definitely one of them. This was the guy that Finn was going to go away with to the outer rim of the galaxy to escape the First Order, and I feel like there definitely should have been a toy of him out there already. He's got a neat, simple outfit with a cape and an awesome stingray shaped, red helmet!

1. PZ-4CO
In terms of droids in the movie, there also weren't a whole lot that stood out to me but this was definitely one of them. Pz was a protocol droid in the film with an abnormally large neck that I just love the design of, as if it was meant to loom over you as you spoke to it. The blue coloring is a nice touch as well, and I'd love a figure of this in the line!
