Wow!
I think I passed out from overwhelming awesomeness coming from that greedo and boba

Ugh...why are they doing this to me???

Postby **HobieWanKenobi** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 12:17 pm

Don't need these, but the Matte Black colorway is my favorite as far as the Toy Fair Vaders went. Happy to learn the official name.

Damn, Fett looks awesome that way!!!

Postby **G_O_Rilla** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 12:58 pm

I don't even like Star Wars stuff but that greedo is killer

Postby **HookedOnPOP** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 2:50 pm

These look awesome. That Fett looks incredible.

Postby **Trixt** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 2:54 pm

dont know how any of you are saying that any of those look better than the Diamond trooper. Depending on how these are distributed I will try to grab them though. This just makes me more excited for what we will see at SDCC.

Postby **Hellspartan413** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 3:15 pm

I really like the Boba Fett and Stormtrooper not to sure about the others SW2

Postby **BigM** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 3:39 pm

Greedo is my favorite.

Adding it to the checklist now.

Postby **sushiguru** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 4:06 pm

the greedo is must for me

Postby **hawkman2** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 4:57 pm

hmm makes me want to go.

Postby **agentaa** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 5:14 pm

I love and want them all! Lol

Postby **swind15** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 5:22 pm

Star Wars translates REALLY well to the Hikari line IMO.

That boba fett !!!

Nice !!

my wallet just took a hit

Postby **jpaskoff** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 8:18 pm

Have a feeling these might be the hardiest Hikaris to get as of yet. At a con for Star Wars, pretty sure any any fan who sees them will want them, not just Funko collectors.

I dunno. No Hikari with an edition size over 500 has held its original price yet. I'm not convinced that these Hikari won't sell for below cost within a few weeks after the con.

Postby **BreacherUP** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 9:27 pm

I'll see them all on ebay for less than what they're on now.

I gave away my clamshell pops from SDCC, I didn't even try to recover any money. Give them time.

These are different. SWC is the biggest Star Wars gathering all year. Pretty much everyone going will be Star Wars fans, and most will probably be collectors. With the largest edition only being 1000, Even if they haven't heard of funko, I'm sure a lot of people will want these for their Star Wars collection, not even knowing about the funko community.

Postby **eastWOLF** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 11:26 pm

I paid for my mom's trip to SWC she won't get me the shogun shadow trooper but I'll see if she picks up the hikari for herself

Postby **Squird** » Mon Apr 06, 2015 11:41 pm

They're all fantastic but Fett smokes 'em. That piece is just flat out cool as hell.

Why couldn't the Creature From the Black Lagoon have gotten that kind of love?

I guess we'll see. Almost none of the exclusives I've picked up at Star Wars Celebrations I've attended have even held onto their original asking price--even super-limited mini-busts, maquettes and the like. I don't know how many Star Wars collectors will want to buy $80 6" vinyls on a whim. I'm fully prepared to pay $100 or more each for these Hikaris--I'm just hoping I don't have to.

Wait a few months until the hype dies down and all four will be quite affordable.
