Hasbro legends 6" sw figures

Seems like we are getting our wish on the 6" figures, like the ones shown off by three a toys. Will be all over these. There is a blurb on RS.

Full sets. Yes.

Doesn't look bad, but also not amazing either. Too bad they couldn't have teamed with 3A to make those smaller scaled figures with fabric parts.

 

[pixletwin]

Fabric at this scale doesn't really work imo. My curiosity is piqued though.

 

[barryo]

sandtrooper hmm?..........might get that.

 

[Craig77]

Looks amazing, really happy they have gone in this direction!!

Count Dooku, General Krell, and Phase 3 Rex for 6 inch!!!

Fabric at this scale doesn't really work imo. My curiosity is piqued though.

If anyone could've done it, it would've been 3A.

I always thought "What if Star Wars figures were at NECA scale?".

I am reminded of a Hall & Oates song..."starting all over again...."

I'm sure I'll buy the OT ones...

 

[Johnny Utah]

I'll buy them all. Hope there's a ROTS Kenobi in Wave 2.

I would like to see a Boba Fett at that scale!

 

[Kuzeh]

Nice!!
I like the idea!
I'll get the core characters only though... no b-listers for me on this one... except OT troopers

Wasn't there a line of Japanese 6" or 8" SW figures not long ago, they only released Vader and Boba Fett... anybody remembers those?

[galactiboy]

If anyone could've done it, it would've been 3A.

Exactly... but I'm sure it would have been a lot more than $20

This seems like Hasbro's attempt to get into a scale that's a bit more popular with collectors.

 

[pixletwin]

Looks pretty cool to me. They will look nice next to my Doctor Who figs.

 

[Wor-Gar]

8 figures this year means it might take 2-3 years to get all the core OT characters.

Then there's the issue with multiples -- do you get Tatooine Luke or Pilot Luke or Stormtrooper Luke... or Bespin Luke... or Jedi Luke....?

At $20 a pop I think I'll steer clear for the most part. Maybe get one or two just to dip my toe in. Vader and Fett are always nice. Or Simply Vader and Bespin Luke to duel. I might find it hard to resist Jabba at this scale.

 

[meanstreak]

I'll pick up a Han Solo if it's decent. Maybe Boba Fett too. Hopefully they are both in the second wave.

 

[galactiboy]

Luckily I don't collect this scale or have an affinity for new releases like this. So I'll be steering clear and continuing to focus on 1/6 and actual vintage figures

Although if these had been around 10 or so years ago when Marvel Legends were at their peak I'd have been all over them like white on rice
