Similar to my other Marvel and Secret Wars AF threads, here's one to consolidate Star Wars going forward.

I LOVE the looks of this one, but I'm tapping myself out ordering 9.8s from Indy!

This might be one I try to pick up multiple copies in the hopes that 1-2 are submit-able down the line. Any early insight into this one, as far as, are we looking at crazy demand and lower print runs, possibly?

Came out yesterday. As I thought, stores were low on them due to them changing the requirements to qualify for them, so many chose not to up their orders, or so I'm hearing.

Oops, I didn't realize it was Thursday already. Midtown isn't working on my work computer so I'll have to check it out when I get home.

The one after star destroyer commander should be the Jawa. It's the only one left of the first 12. Only boba was not in the original 12. But he was also a variant to a variant so , I guess that's why he went out of turn.

It never dawned on me that they were doing the original 12! They should have made the back cover the 12 back. That would have been cool.

Exactly how many of these have been released. Anyone have a list of what's been released and future release dates by chance?

Luke, Leia, Han Solo, Darth Vader, Lando, Obi Wan Kenobi, Chewbacca, C3P0, R2D2, Stormtrooper, Boba Fett, Tusken Raider, Star Destroyer Commander, Jawa* (upcoming release)

Someone let me know if I missed any..I am not sure what others are coming out.

Those released so far have been in the original 12 figures ( except Boba and Lando). So, if I had to guess I would think something like Greedo, Hammerhead, Luke X-Wing Pilot or Death Star Droid. Or they could through a curveball and do Yoda, Admiral Ackbar, Imperial Guard or something like that.

Those sound about right, definitely can see them doing Imperial Guard..maybe Bib Fortuna (Jabba's assistant), Wicket, Walrus Man, Snaggletooth too..should be interesting to see just how long they keep these going lol
