Add a commentTBS 6" 34: Darth Revan - HD Photos
The Black Series 6" 34: Darth Revan figure has been added to our HD Photo Gallery today. Personally think this is one awesome looking figure. Revan is super articulated as expected and includes 2 Lightsabers.
Unfortunately these have yet to hit Brick and Mortar Stores in large numbers. The only retail stores it has trickled into so far is GameStop and ThinkGeek. If your looking for this figure your best bet is online stores like our sponsors.
Enjoy the new HD Photos!
Add a commentTBS 6" 33: Sabine Wren - HD Photos
Just finished photographing The Black Series 6" 33: Sabine Wren figure and have added her to our HD Photo Gallery today. This includes Box, loose, and variations.
These photos are from my new camera which I think look pretty awesome. Also since I have a lot more pixels to work with, I will be increasing our HD Photos size by about 40% over our previously photos, which were already impressive. Enjoy!
Add a commentThere Has Been An Awakening
After a much needed break from photography for the past few months (been doing this since 1995) I am refreshed and ready to get back into it. I have decided to also retired my 10 year old digital camera that to this day produced some of the highest quality photos out there and bought a new camera and lenses.
I am in the process of creating all new digital filters and tools for my new camera, to process these new photos. This new camera produces some amazing high detailed photos and has allowed me to increase our already large photos by about 40% with even better detail that I was able to get with my old camera.
Also I will be working on restoring our older HD Photo Galleries, which was corrupted by a catastrophic Server failure a while back.

Add a commentHasbro Updates TBS 6" 25 Imperial Death Trooper Hemet Paint Application
Hasbro has updated the paint application on The Black Series Imperial Death Trooper figure. The newer application looks much cleaner on the helmet and they have changed the vent colors from a gray to a dark charcoal color. Also the green circles at the base of the Helmet have been omitted as well for some reason. The newer figures were packed in the The Black Series 6" Wave 6 case (which includes Baze Malbus).
• 1st (DS 62231): Gray painted vents - green circles.
• 2nd (DS 63131): Dark Charcoal painted vents - No green circles.
I have included a comparison photo above. Old version on the left and newer on the right.

Add a commentHasbro Updates TBS 6" 22 Sergeant Jyn Erso (Jedha) Face Paint Application
Back at last years San Diego Comic Con when we spoke with Hasbro about the poor / messy paint applications on The Black Series 6' figures, they stated they were working on a new way to apply paint applications onto the figures so they look much cleaner and more accurate. Well it looks like they have begun doing so starting with the Rey figure that we reported about last month and now Jyn gets updated as well.
Just found a Sergeant Jyn Erso (Jedha) figure with the updated paint applications on her face which include eyes, eyebrows, and lips. This was found in The Black Series 6" Wave 6 case (which includes Baze Malbus). I posted a quick comparison photo above. Old on the left and new on the right.
• 1st version - (DS 61681)
• 2nd version - (DS 63131)

Add a commentAnother TBS 6" Rey (Jakku) & BB-8 Variant
Went to my local Toys R Us today hoping to find the newer waves of the Black Series 6" figures, but unfortunately they just restocked all the pegs with the first Wave of Rogue One figures again (UGH!!!). This assortment also includes the 02: Rey (Jakku) & BB-8.
While flipping through the Rey figures, I noticed that her face looked a bit different then the White and Tan flesh tone variants we reported about a few weeks ago. This one seems more like a transition between these 2 variations. She has whitish flesh and the updated face paint applications. All six of the Rey figures they had were all painted like this and shared the same date stamp of 61751.
Variations:
• 1st Version (DS 60681): Whitish Flesh Tone On Face
• 2nd Version (DS 61751): Whitish Flesh Tone On Face - Updated Face Paint Applications
• 3rd Version (DS 61871): Tan Flesh Tone On Face
You can view a comparison photo above, or visit the figures page for larger photos.
Add a commentTBS 6" - 12: First Order Snowtrooper Page Updated With Variants
I have added a photo of the 3rd variation of The Black Series 6" 12: First Order Snowtrooper to our HD Photo Gallery today, which I just recently found at GameStop about a week or so ago.
Variations:
• 1st version: Blaster Rifle In Hand - Blaster Rifle Handle Black - White Neck
• 2nd version: Blaster Rifle In Hand - Blaster Rifle Handle White - Black Neck
• 3rd version: Blaster Rifle In Bubble - Blaster Rifle Handle White - Black Neck

Add a commentTBS 6" - 04: First Order Stormtrooper Page Updated With Variants
I have updated The Black Series 6" 04: First Order Stormtrooper's Page with images of the Black Stripe Armor Box Variants for those into variations.
• 1st release. (DS 51391) - Black stripe painted on the armor box (on abdomen armor above gun belt) located above the front side of his right hip, which is incorrect.
• 2nd release. (DS 60681) - Black stripe painted on the armor box (on abdomen armor above gun belt) located above the right side of his right hip, which is correct.
This was not that big of a change, but Hasbro did updated the paint application to make this figure more screen accurate.

Add a commentEarly TBS 6" Force Awakens Trooper Variants Arriving At GameStop
My local Texas GameStop Stores are receiving earlier waves of The Black Series 6" Force Awakens figures again. Not sure if this is what Hasbro is sending them now or if the warehouse that supplies my local stores stumbled across some older stock and shipped it to them. In the mix of these figures I found some hard to find variants on The Black Series 6" First Order Stormtrooper & Snowtrooper that I was never able to obtain.
They are:
• #04 First Order Stormtrooper - (DS 60681) - Right Hip Box on Abdomen Armor (Boxes above Belt) has black stripe painted on it.
• #12 First Order Snowtrooper (DS 52371) - Black Neck, Holding Gun, Blaster Rifle has white handle.
I visited 3 stores today and each had about 2-4 of each of these and they were clearanced out for $12.97. I will get some comparison photos up soon.
