I was sort of hoping that Baroness and the Trooper would be part of wave 2 (much like Destro and Snake Eyes were part of Wave 1 and were announced much later).

Oh well. The only problem with all this stuff is how far off a lot of it is.

[The Commander]

Neat. Means we should see these sooner than later.

Glad I pre-ordered these, those Red Ninja's are going to be hard to find. 3 CC's per case sounds like alot of peg warming is going to happen.

Not digging these. The scuplts and designs are not appealing. I'm fine with a 6" line. But hasbro I think is offering much better toys with the SW black series. Those figures look like they belong to star wars. These figures dont look like they are being made by the same company.

Why ship Red Ninja to stores at all? Just ship directly to scalpers.
The level of Retardation at Hasbro continues to astound.

Maybe it's deliberate. Hasbro knows no one cares about a toy line unless there's rare/scarce pieces. It's not like anyone every collected anything to enjoy for what it is.

This case pack shouldn’t be a surprise or news to anyone. Places like Dorkside have had this case breakdown since the day these went up for preorder. It’s an idiotic breakdown for sure.

The sooner the better. I find that there is to much of a gap between when figures are announced, and when they are released. If something takes to long to come out, I lose interest. I was really hyped for the planet green valley stuff. To much of a delay, cancelled my pre orders, no longer interested. So I really hope we see this stuff come at a decent pace. Lots of potential for this line. I hope they make a lifeline amongst a ton of others.

Or maybe it’s because they ship solid cases to online/“fan channel” venues so if you wanted an army of Red Ninjas, you just need to order them instead of relying on increasingly erratic retail support where some stores might not even get this wave since there’s a movie assortment hitting a couple weeks later?

BBTS and EE too. I'm surprised this was frontpaged as "news"
