  • Walmart actually shipped out my Hasbro Star Wars Black Series Clone Wars Mace Indu, General Grievous, and Arc Trooper. Crazy. I like all three, one more than I thought I would. Now, is Walmart going to make them more available in the coming weeks, or is this it?

  • @benreilly9513
    @benreilly9513 2 года назад +27

    Yeah, for the ARC Trooper they reused the Echo version of the mold when it should have been the Phase I Trooper version. Maybe with Echo’s left forearm. This baffles me because unlike Boss or Fixer, it’s not like they didn’t have the parts. Take the pauldron and the kama from Rex or Bly, stick a rangefinder on the helmet and bam, it’s Fordo.
    Though I admit I’m not miffed about this one because this figure looks really cool on its own, and making a custom Fordo will be a lot easier than trying to fix the Gaming Greats “commandos”.

    Grievous I wanted because it is technically his "first appearance" look. I would love for Hasbro to just make 6 inch figures that look exactly like the animated bodies, but that'll never happen so this will do. Also Mace kicked a lot of droid tuckus without his saber in that series, so displaying him without the saber ignited makes sense.

    Was surprised to find these guys last month at my local Walmarts, never heard of any preorders for them this far back. But it's not unusual for mine to put out stock like this so late, they also made the mistake of thinking they were old stock and clearanced them along with some recent Marvel Legends. It was only like $2 off compared to the legends being like $19 a piece but it still made me happy to have them since I wasn't into collecting when the original sculpts came out.

    @tomtudorweaver1078 2 года назад

    We better get a face-off between that Grievous and the recently revealed Vader when that releases, battle of the bright white bad guys.
    Honestly that Grievous to me almost has a retro feel, in the sense that a lot of actual retro Star Wars figures had less complex and more vibrant colour schemes than the actual film designs. Plus as a child growing up with the prequels I had Grievous toys that were more white in colour, and I thought of him as that colour rather than the more accurate bone colour, so I think this figure has a simplified toy aesthetic in a way.
    Wave 31 has been scheduled for an April release date here in the UK since late last year, but surprisingly when it finally released in the last week or so wave 32 was released along with it, so it was nice that even though I had to wait longer I was able to get way more new figures at once than I usually would.

      The TBS6 Grievous comes with lightsaber designs used by Plo Koon, Kit Fisto, Aayla Secura, and Shaak Ti, and on this version they're painted solid silver.
