Top 5 most wanted Star Wars Black Series figures based on The Book of Boba Fett

While the Boba Fett tv show did a lot of things that I didn't entirely agree with, and didn't exactly hit the mark for me, it still delivered a lot of really sweet designs for new and returning characters that definitely need to be touched upon in the Black Series line from Hasbro! These would be my top 5 choices to hopefully see later this year and beyond, with SPOILERS being fair warning for any who haven't seen the show yet.


5. Tusken Raider Chief and Trainer
Something I did enjoy quite a bit was showing Boba Fett survive the Sarlacc and go on to live with a tribe of Tuskens ala Dances with Wolves. The group met an unceremonious off screen slaughter, but while we got to enjoy them two particular members who stood out was the tribal chief of the village, and the primary trainer who taught Boba their fighting style. We have the base Tusken mold in the Black Series history already, released a few times, so fans should have plenty already for the Chief and Trainer to pair with.


4. Black Krrsantan
I am not a fan of the comic book rendition of the character that we got given how skinny and lanky it looks, and I'm hoping the live action version accurately displays the character's massive bulk and massive! This design is definitely one of fans' most wanted from the series, and would add a scary looking bounty hunter to the line.


3. Gamorrean bodyguards
This would not only be a cool looking alien figure for the line, but would serve dual purposes. Along with representing the bodyguards Boba employed during his spinoff show, the first episode of Mandalorian's second season featured a shirtless Gamorrean very similar in design to these two!


2. Cobb Vanth
These next two would be my main wants from the series, clearly as they are the top two, but they make the top two by a wide margin. I loved getting to see Cobb Vanth again and seeing him as a cool, collected Marshall of his small town. The basis for a lot of this potential figure already exists from his current release, as it is the same outfit just without the Mandalorian armor, so it'd be a simple retool, but a welcome one.

1. Cad Bane
Oh boy. When we saw him coming in from the distance I could not have guessed we were going to get a slick, unnerving live action rendition of Cad freaking Bane. I loved his voice, his look, and his showdown with Cobb Vanth was the most tense moment of the show for me. He is by far one of the most iconic characters for the franchise to come from outside the trilogies, and even if he just got a figure based on his Bad Batch appearance I don't think it is too soon for another Cad Bane, especially with the chatter his live action debut stirred about the series!

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

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 NECA Back to the Future figures

NECA gave us a huge surprise this year with the reveal of a full range of action figures for the Back to the Future franchise! This is definitely one of the most popular franchises out there and I didn't know that I needed action figures for it until now! So far we've had a couple of reveals in the form of Marty from the first movie, Marty in the second movie, Marty in his spaceman costume, and then Biff from the first movie. The movies don't have the biggest cast that are ideal for action figure treatment, but I've thought up five from the three movies that need to come into the line after these four!

Top 5 most wanted Jakks Pacific Sonic Badniks vol 2

(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
