Most retailers are pre-sold out of the Black Series The Stranger (Qimir) figure but Gamestop now have theirs up for preorder.
Hasbro has resorted for quite some time to “fluffing up” their images by digitally removing pins from old sculpts that they are reissuing or “refreshing” for new sets. The Mace Windu and the Captain Rex are the latest offenders in this practice. Both upcoming figures use the old, original sculpts that feature exposed double pins in their elbows and knees. Don’t be fooled by the official press photos released.
Some may find this trivial, but others find this to be a clear act of deception aimed at unwitting consumers and collectors. It needs to stop.
