Every Star Wars The Black Series 3.75" Figure From 2015 to 2017 Walmart Exclusives Red & Black Boxes
Ойын-сауық
Hi Star Wars Collectors, welcome to my 250th video! In this video, I take a look at every 3.75" Black Series figure from 2015 to 2017. These were the Walmart exclusive figures that were packaged in the red and black boxes.
This line of Hasbro Star Wars figures preceded the reintroduction of the modern Vintage Collection (or Vintage Collection 2 as some people call it). I find the figure selection very odd in this line with figures from both the Original Trilogy and Sequel Trilogy as well as some Rogue One figures. But the main thing I find odd is the fact that some of the figures in this line are over 10 years old and have been put in without any update, on top of this many of the figures are either repacks from the Vintage Collection or have been repacked into the new Vintage Collection. Check it out and let me know your thoughts.

During the time Rogue One was out I really wish more characters from the movie had articulated figures. I know we are getting some later but I always felt it was a missed opportunity on Hasbro's part.

You're right man... it was a bizarre wave. I might not even cover it when I get round to it in my latest series going through Black Series 3.75. That Vader.... a disgrace. What where they thinking?! 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️

Terrible Vader mate, I can see them using the Finn in the VC. First time I’ve looked at the figure in a long time and they really did nail the likeness.
Perfect way to end my evening, a new bossk video. Thanks buddy.
Amazing, I didn't start collecting the Vintage Collection till I saw the figures from The Force Awakens. Now I am only missing about 15 away of being complete. I have been ordering the new ones from Hasbro Pulse on pre-orders
You’re totally correct Tim we need a VC Finn big time. I would love him in his stormtrooper outfit with removable helmet and blood stripes 👍
I totally agree with you about how weird the line was, I collected some of them but didn't want to double up on figures i bought in the past
Congrats on 250!
Very fun video. Thanks Bossk!
Consistently excellent reviews. Great work mate
I loved these when they came out ! I made up the full set of praetorian guards with these figures and the leia was the only version for force awakens ever made so that was welcomed! The solo i really agree needs to be greyer considering his hair is white in the force awakens haha i recently picked up ahsoka and that ones a brilliant figure i did also pick up a death trooper and that figure was very rubbery in my opinion but looked great, the boba prototype was very popular amongst customisers because essentially your being sold a blacnk canvas for a custom! Thanks for the video tim great content as always !

Good video. For some reason I thought there were more figures in this line because the characters picked were so spread out. Nice to actually see them all.

Great video! I was able to get Endor Han, Finn, and Poe when they were in stores. Would love to get my hands on a Death Trooper!
Third comment: the only incentive to purchase the vc repacks is for the packaging essentially. If I want to army build Praetorian Guards and First Order Troopers, the 3.75” black series figures are much cheaper on eBay.
12:24 That Luke figure’s cape is a hassle, however if you loop the strings over his shoulders and behind his back and tie a knot, the cloak will rest on his shoulders similar to his Force Awakens film appearance.

This is a great video with lost of helpful information. If I was to describe this collection of figures I would say its like potpourri LOL. Great stuff!
I’d go so far as to say this is the the most useful resource for UK collectors barre none.

I enjoyed this video! Are you planning on doing a part 2 where you talk about all the 3.75in Black series line figures that came out in 2014? There were a lot of VC repacks of some of the harder to get EU figures from that line, but also a few new ones like the Mara Jade figure that came out in 2014.

Hey there Bossk! Another great video! With the success of the 6 inch line and previously released concepts such as Tie Fighters, the upcoming Snow Speeder and the passed release of the Dewback with SandTrooper, would a 6 inch Hoth Luke with scale Taun-Taun make a nice set?
Fantastic idea and video.
Another great video bossk you are one of the best youtubers and I love your videos. I have a question, will you review the vintage collection commander wolffe when it comes out.

Great video.. Thx for sharing..👍😎👍
I will admit, owning a number of these affected my desire to purchase the repacks, despite the updated paint apps on some. But Black Series Luke and VC luke are identical
Interesting video. I have every one of these mint in box with the exception of Princess Leia in her white ceremony gown, something I searched every corner of the world looking for but failed. Maybe someday I’ll pony up and pay eBay for her. Perhaps it’s cheaper now that it’s been re-released on a TVC card. The problem with this series was Walmart’s exclusivity, which destroyed availability. More than half of them never saw the light of day. To be honest I’m not sure how I tracked half of them down. I certainly didn’t buy them at Walmart. My favorites include the Sandtrooper, Tusken Raider, Akbar, Death Trooper, Skarif Shoretrooper, and Phasma. Ponda Baba was a very strange choice for this line. Thanks for reviewing this strange and brief line ruined by Walmart.

Cheers Matt. Some good figures but a strange collection for one line.
Very informative, thank you! The only one of those I bought was the Ceremonial Leia, and was heartily disappointed by the lack of poseability. I'll have to figure out a way to fix that, someday. Speaking of articulation fixes, if they made that Tusken Raider the same way as the TVC one, it should be very easy to boil-and-pop his arms off, replace them with better-articulated ones, and swap his hands back in. With the arms hidden by the cloak, it won't really matter which arms you use. I think I used a pair of Han arms to update one of mine. Hope this helps!

Nice, great idea. Just crazy he hasn’t been updated.
The old Luke is a great figure but his cloak is terrible with that string holding it on. I cut off the string and super glued it to his shoulders by putting two small dabs of superglue on each side of his collarbone/neck. Looks much better that way. I also display him with the green lightsaber because in my head canon he was still a heroic Jedi master and he never threw it away and actually used it in these movies to fight Snoke (who is Darth Plagueis)
I don't have any Star Wars series. Looking at your review, I wanted to buy a line of Star Wars action figures. Good review
I love the admiral Ackbar from this line. He's great for customizing a modifying figures. I use them a lot in fact when I first picked them up I bought 10 the first time I saw him.

Nice Collection !!!
#backTVC I agree, there are some strange repacks here, sometimes of figures that time me, aren't particularly good. But at the same time, I understand that Hasbro is trying to get use out of existing molds in order time build up a pot of cash in order to develop newer molds. I think that The Mandalorian should hopefully spark the interests of newer collector's. I think my nine year old son is enjoying the series more than me! To that end I think Hasbro should definitely release more 3.75 figures in this line. I also think they should then look at the three trilogies and give us 'popular' characters that they have not done. Which there are a lot of! But doing genuine revisions of existing face sculpts would be welcome. I'd LOVE to see old man Rex, Gregor and Wolffe as a 3.75 three pack! And I also really want a 3.75 Heavy Mandalorian. They have done this figure in the Black Series line, so they have the sculpt. And the 6" figure is hugely popular with the collectors!
Congrats on 250 videos. I think almost anything Walmart exclusive sucks. Not only are they hard to find, it sucks that most are just repacks.
I hope the vintage collection comes with the first order stormtrooper Jakku invation wearing the vest gear.
A lot of repacks but finn would be a good addition wonder if we will get any more from rise of Skywalker
In keeping with Hasbro's usual lack of direction....
😎 noice I think ur the first to show them all

Still not sure how the Disney SW characters can count as “vintage” - I enjoy the super articulated figures for dynamic poses in my dioramas. But why not make the new characters as part of a separate line, and let the Legacy characters have their own collection?

What are the differences between the vintage collection and the 3 3/4 Black Series?

Why did they have the black series line separate from the vintage collection?
@BossksBounty

The VC ended in 2012/13 and then the 6 inch black series started with the orange line. At the same time they started the orange line 3.75 in similar packaging. I guess they wanted some kind of consistency across the 2 scales. Mistake in my opinion
The white Fett is a great customising template 👍👌👌 #BackTVC

Or you can use him as an Imperial arc trooper leading stormtroopers into battle.
Missed out these wave's luckily, some real awful figs in there and have the o.k one's in VC form. Nice vid tho... ;-)

Terrible line, especially the packaging considering they cancelled the original TVC line in favour of these. The packaging for me was the worse part, so lackluster and un-imaginative. I only picked some of these up in The Entertainer last year for a pound an inch (£3.75) for the old Spanish stock, E.G Fett, Ponda Baba and Ackbar. I'm delighted to see the return of TVC but we need to see many more new never released figures over constant re-packs. I have spoken.
I have all of these
This was one of the weirdest lines, and some figures were incredibly difficult to find. I don't remember that last wave hitting retail all that well, at least in my area. I did find a bunch of FO Executioners and Praetorians at Tuesday Morning for 5-6 bucks. Does anyone else's FO Executioner have a loose head? Both of the two I opened have noticeably loose heads.

So basically the Black Series 3.75inch are all old stock they had left over thrown into the Black Series line. But why Black Series when it's a 6inch line. One of the craziest lines that make no sense. They must of had left over Boba Fett mail away figures and all these other figures couldn't be bothered spending money on designing new packaging so said just use the black series logo and boxes throw them in that and push them out done!! LOL Pretty lazy half ass attempt! 😅😅😅
Just odd odd odd line! C'mon 3.75 should be in vintage collection, 6 inch is black series! Why mud the line, I hate when there's no consistency, shows lack of line management
