Top 5 most wanted alternate versions of established characters in Star Wars the Black Series


Star Wars isn't just known for its colorful cast of characters but also the iconic outfits many of these characters wear! The toylines have been very fruitful as well over the years in giving us most of a character's given wardrobe for their on screen appearances! The Black Series has given us so many fantastic characters and great figures for those characters, with many looks and costumes captured already, but there are some choice character designs I feel are still missing from the line and here I will be talking about my top 5 most wanted alternate versions of established characters in Hasbro's Black Series line!

5. Qi'ra - Kessel heist
I have no issue with the Qi'ra figure that we got for the Solo release. I think it is a good figure representation of her early time in the movie and I love the set up for the White Worm gang we have with her and Moloch; however, it would definitely be nice to have her primary costume from the movie. Right now the figure we have looks a bit out of place when stood next to the rest of the Kessel heist crew, and I'd really like to definitively finish that set up.


4. Echo - Bad Batch
We finally got our first Echo in the line with a fantastic rendition of his Clone Wars Arc trooper armor! I was surprised though that that's the version we got first with so much Bad Batch merchandise being pushed right now, and as it stands he is the only member of the squad not to be realized in figure form yet! So hopefully the Clone Wars Echo isn't the only design of the character that comes out this year, because the Bad Batch would be a great set up to complete within one year.


3. Ahsoka - Mandalorian
Ahsoka has had a good run in the Black Series already, with her getting figures based on her appearances in Rebels and the final season of Clone Wars. She became one of the most talked about Star Wars characters last year too when she made her live action debut in the Mandalorian tv show, with her own tv show announced to be in the works as well! I figure that means it is only a matter of time until we get a live action Ahsoka Black Series figure, and I am eagerly awaiting it.


2. Boba Fett - Mandalorian (re-armored)
Another design hailing from the Mandalorian universe, Boba Fett's presence on the show was one of the other most talked about Star Wars happenings of last year and Hasbro has already announced that they're going to be doing a figure based on his nomad appearance from early on in season 2. That's fantastic, and I'll buy it, but the figure I really want of this older rendition of the character is when he dons his classic armor once again. Just like Ahsoka, Boba has his very own television show coming out soon, this year in fact, so I'm banking on the hope that a re-armored Boba Fett will come out for that!


1. Luke - Crait projection
It feels like I've been talking about this figure forever, and more and more time goes by without it becoming a reality. We've gotten a plethora of Luke Skywalkers in the line! Essentially every one of his original trilogy designs have been translated into 6 inch form, and we're even starting to get Legends designs for him, so I'm wondering when Hasbro will return to the sequel trilogy and give us some of those old man Luke designs. His Crait projection scene was by far my favorite scene in The Last Jedi, and the Luke Skywalker figure that I've wanted most through the years.

Top 5 most wanted Star Wars the Black Series aliens from The Phantom Menace

Image
The prequel love is very strong recently in Star Wars the Black Series, the line of 6 inch collection figures covering the Star Wars franchise. It felt like, as a prequel fan, that I was gasping for prequel figures in the collection not only a year ago but now we've had a flood of them, with another flood quickly coming! It's gotten me more excited for the line than I've been in a long time, and I've been thinking about some choice prequel characters I'd like to see! Aliens are getting a bit of a resurgence in the line as well, with prequel Jedi, Moloch, Rio, and a few others, so what better list to make than my most wanted aliens from the prequels? For this post I'm focusing in on Phantom Menace which had a great selection of aliens! And here are my top 5!

Top 5 most wanted Jakks Pacific Sonic Badniks vol 2

Image
(Images Source) We have been getting more and more robotic Badniks in Jakks Pacific's line of Sonic figures which is very exciting! Primary characters are great, but getting more of the background designs to fill out the scenes is awesome and we've recently got some Badniks I was eagerly waiting for like the Burrobot, Newtron, and most recently the Caterkiller!! Eggman's army is packed to the brim though with all kinds of robotic enemies, and these are five more I hope to eventually see! 5. Jaws The Chopper is not the most posable of the Badniks that we've gotten so far (not that many are very posable to begin with), but it is such a classic design from the series and another underwater enemy would be the Jaws. With Jakks Pacific steadily working through giving us little playsets themed around different levels, a set themed around the underwater sequences would be the perfect way to get this guy into the line. 4. Roller With complete transparency, I will admit that thes

Top 5 most wanted Mattel Hammond Collection dinosaurs

The Hammond Collection looks to be the collector's dream for an articulated, highly accurate line of dinosaur figures! We're getting lot's of iconic and fan favorite creatures in the line's first year, with more great figures sure to be in the line's future! (Image Source) 5. Pteranodon The version of this dino that we got from the Amber collection was pretty spot on; however, we've got a new scale to work with and so I'm needing myself a new collector's line Pteradon to fit in with the rest of the Hammond Collection we've been building up to this point! I'd be really interested to see if a flight stand would be included as well, especially since stands haven't been utilized up to this point in this line. (Image Source) 4. Quetzalcoatlus A newer dinosaur being introduced into the film series is one who looks epic brought to life! I love the head design of this massive flying beast, and just like the Pteranodon I have no doubt that the wingspa
