[@joep84]

Nice to see the Hoth rebel soldier so high on the list. That was my figure of the year when it came out. I bought a solid case of them back in the day lol.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

It truly is one of the best of the line! Really hoping that the Endor Rebel Soldier delivers in an even more substantial way since it's deluxe. Thanks for watching, Joe! -Justin

[@Mon21209]

It's the only figure out of my ~150 that I bought twice. Which is insane because I have a huge bias towards dark side collecting. Once I held it, though, I was like wtf. It's perfect. What gets me and what I wish more reviewers considered is that human proportions. Many/most figures have something off like too long legs or torso.

[@derexano88]

That 1st release Cap. Rex and Deluxe Emperor are my proud gems/grail of my Black series collection! Love and lucky to have those two.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

They are definitely gems. My grail would be the Shadow Squadron set...can't believe I finally found that one! -Justin

[@gabesstarwarscollection]

You’re missing Dagobah Luke with Yoda, and Mace Windu! Those are my favorites.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

We mentioned both of those last year! Haha, they got the boot. -Justin

[@rileycr0552]

I remember thinking the orange line sandtrooper would be the only six inch star wars figure I ever get. At that time, I thought the black series would be a short lived line. I believe that helmet was sculpted by gentle giant which would explain why it's sooooo good!

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That could explain it! Thanks for watching, Riley. Masterpiece figure! -Justin

[@banzaibobA7V]

Same. I figured it'd be cool to have at least the one 6" trooper. 10 years later and I have Black Series figures spilling out all over the place XD.

[@jangokamino0434]

Nice, I own two of these 10 elite figures lol - Boba (ROTJ) and Gam Guard

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Two great ones! -Justin

[@order66103]

I am so grateful I have 10 of the 11 figures you talked about. The exception is Clone Wars Maul, but he is next on the list! Great video as always Crew, and maybe 2023 will have some that make their way on next year’s list.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Checking those boxes! You'll love Clone Wars Maul. Thanks for watching, Sith Lord 66! -Justin

[@PsychoEmerald]

Things are proceeding exactly as I have foreseen... But yeah, that sandtrooper is awesome, I'm thinking about buying one for myself since I still don't have him, and that weathering looks pretty amazing. My personal favorites off the top of my head would be ROTJ Boba, Dark Trooper, Count Dooku, CW Anakin, and Commander Bly. Count Dooku is one I just got recently, but he's so good that he's definitely in my favorites, the soft guns on him are some of the best in the line. Keep up the great work, guys! Hoping that this year brings us some more Top 10 contenders like 2022 did!

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Count Dooku was actually on the list last year! Amazing figure and that was another one that we waited sooooo long on. It really did deliver. Thanks for watching as always, Psycho Emerald! -Justin

[@geraldlaboone9741]

Great episode guys. I have always agreed that the Sandtrooper is and will always be the best figure in the line. I just recently got the Imperial Shadow Squadron 2-pack and the Sandtrooper looks awesome in black. Thanks. Keep up the good work.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

The Shadow Squadron set is definitely a grail of mine! Can't believe I finally got it. Love that they used the Sandtrooper sculpt for one of the troopers! Thanks for watching, Gerald. -Justin

[@gabesstarwarscollection]

The weathering is so great on that sand trooper that all of my clones just don’t feel right. I remember it beIng my super hard to find that sand trooper. I got the blue line release.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Blue line release is great as well! Love the black pauldron. -Justin

[@banzaibobA7V]

Great list! I love that Sandtrooper. He was an instabuy back in 2013 when the line launched. I remember having to pay double the price for him to get one at the time (about what I'm paying per figure now XD).

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Haha thanks for watching, Banzai BoB! -Justin

[@prophet924]

Great list! There are so many good Black Series figures. These 11 mentioned are great figures. The Sand trooper helmet is my minds eye of the storm trooper. I love all the awesome Tatooine figures… tear.Rancor. To me I put Jaina Solo in my top ten. It’s a figure body they’ve used for other great BS bodies. She is a character amalgamed into the sequel trilogy in Rey. But man Jacen and Jaina why didn’t we see you? Anyway Jaina Solo is awesome!

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Jaina Solo is an incredibly underrated figure! So good! Thanks for watching, prophet924. -Justin

[@timlong3143]

Great list, just waiting to get Maul. Great to see the Hoth rebel soldier get some love. One of the 1st figures I bought, along with the Snowspeeder, when I started collecting the black series. I have 5 now.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That Snowspeeder is awesome too! One of the best pieces of the collection. -Justin

[@theperceptor9287]

Hello Nate and Justin thanks for sharing your thoughts on the best black series figures ever. I like so many others were unable to get the Captain Rex red and black box. I did get the Bad Batch for about $22 dollars so I'll make due. I got my Emperor Palpatine with the throne a couple years ago for a Christmas present, happy me. And this past summer I got an orange line Sandtrooper still in a box for about $30 dollars. The list the two of you created is a very good, solid list. Thanks again guys for taking the time to share your thoughts on these figures. I'll catch up with you on Sunday. Hope you both have a great weekend, Tom PS I'll be shipping some figures on Monday. Nothing super special just that Holliday Snow Trooper I've been promising and a few extras.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

I appreciate you checking out our video as always, Tom! Thanks for taking the time to comment as well. -Justin

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That's awesome! Such a great figure. -Justin

[@vaderjoe3133]

I was wondering, is the Orange Line Stormtrooper just a little bulkier than the Mandalorian Stormtrooper? The Gamorrean Guard is one of my favorites and it's overlooked! FYI... Hasbro is getting ready to send off my Clone Wars Darth Maul. I'm excited!

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Hey Vader Joe. Yes the Sandtrooper is on the older Stormtrooper body, as well as a differentl helmet. That along with the pauldron and backpack make it quite bigger than the 2020 Stormtrooper. -Justin

[@abeham27]

My clone wars Darth Maul just shipped so I’m excited to finally have him!!!

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Nice! Enjoy him. -Justin

[@MarkyD1967]

Wow, what an AMAZING list. No doubt every one of the figures that made this list was worthy. Given how many Black Series figures we have now it almost makes sense to do a Top 20 now instead of Top 10. Re: the Emperor, I got lucky and ended up with 4 of them. Grabbed two more when it went on clearance. I now have three Emperors on display using all three head sculpts. So that one worked out well. Congratulations on another great summary. Ironically I missed out on the your #1 Sandtrooper. I started collecting right after the end of the very first wave. However, I did get a Chinese knockoff of this Sandtrooper when my sister went to China on a visit back in 2015. She found it and a few other Orange Wave knockoffs from a street vendor. Looks identical but a part of me knows I’ll have to eventually pay up on eBay to get the real deal someday. Although it feels Hasbro is on track to destroy the line with so many repacks, repaints, kit bashing, inflated pricing, too many deluxe/exclusives, horrible shortfalls on paint apps and weaponry, etc, I’m still holding out hope that at least one out of every 10 new releases will be a banger and worthy of future list consideration. The good old days are clearly over with the line, but there are still a bunch of characters we still need that maybe Hasbro will surprise us in the future. Keep up the good work guys! Cheers! 😁

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Thanks for checking it out, MarkyD! We actually have an idea to highlight some figures that didn't make the cut but absolutely deserve to be talked about. Look forward to that soon! Take care. -Justin

I cannot wait to see that official reveal for the Endor trooper! -Justin

[@TheZooBoy111]

Hey, that’s me in the credits! Haha. Great list guys. I own every figure on this list except for Rex and the Sandtrooper, so I have a question: I’ve been eyeing the Dewback set, is this the same Sandtrooper that comes in that set (besides the pauldron color)?

[@bobavader1862]

The Sandtrooper that does come with the Dewback is not that great really, its quite a gummy feeling figure probably so it can side astride the Dewback better.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

There you are!!! Haha. Thanks for watching, The Zoo Boy. The Sandtrooper that comes with the Dewback is NOT the same figure. Different plastic, different paint, etc. Truly unfortunate that it's not of the same quality as the orange, black, and white pauldron Sandtroopers. -Justin

[@TaunTaunTundra4477]

The Black series Empire strikes back 40th anniversary Probe droid is definitely my favourite

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That's an excellent piece! -Justin

[@jhawkjedi3346]

Good list. Mine is similar although as much as I like some of the newer figures (like CW Maul) in the line the last couple years, none of them have replaced any of my top ten (yet anyway) HM. Tusken Raider - great sculpt and paint and best soft goods in the line IMO. only downside is weak arm articulation 10. Hoth Rebel Soldier - really no negatives here except could maybe use a little more weathering/dusty snow effect paint? 09. Sandtrooper - from waist up it’s perfect. The horrible A frame legs and bow legged stance of the original stormie body are strikes against for me 08. Gam Guard - maybe the most photogenic figure in the line? Soft goods second only to the Tusken 07. Original Mandalorian - perfectly captured representation of that look of the character. Great details. still find myself picking this up and fiddling 3 years on 06. Imperial Stormtrooper (Mando box) - might be the most realistically sculpted figure in the line top to bottom. Looks like a little person in armor. 05. Deluxe Palpatine - all three face sculpts are awesome. The hands are all awesome. this figure flanked with two royal guards is chefs kiss on shelf 04. Dagobah Luke + Yoda - maybe a cheat but I don’t care. best Luke in the line and the alt head of yoda with the closed eyes is a PERFECT sculpt. My favorite moment in any Star Wars movie ever is yoda raising the xwing from the swamp and that moment is captured with these figures 03. Cad Bane - the detail on this figure is off the charts. Looks like it has more paint than it really does from all the well placed colored plastic 02. Tie ESB Boba/ROTJ Boba - the newer figure is obviously superior in about every way, but I’ll be damned if the original fig doesn’t have shelf presence in spades. I can’t choose between them 01. ESB Vader - only negative is lack of alt hands. Besides that, for the price point it is a perfect Vader figure. another one I just constantly still pick up and fiddle with.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That's a fantastic list, Jhawkjedi! I think the main thing that takes The Mandalorian down a few notches is the helmet sculpt. I really hope they improve on that make it accurate with the new Din! -Justin

[@bobavader1862]

WOW, what a great list guys. When you compile figure lists like this you tend to forget how many stellar figure releases that we have had in the Black Series. The Mandalorian Ahsoka head sculpt is out of this world, it just goes to show when Hasbro try they absolutely kill it.The Clone Wars Cad Bane is incredible, the sculpt and detail is amazing!Awesome episode guys.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

It really is hard to narrow it down to ten. So many goodies in the collection! Thanks for watching as always, Boba. Appreciate your support! -Justin

[@q.h.s5051]

5: Arc Trooper (2003) 4: Han Solo (Bespin) 3: Vader (empire 40th) 2: Deluxe ROTJ Boba Fett 1: Endor Luke/Final duel Luke It’s not a popular list but these are my favorites. ROTJ Luke is genuinely my favorite because of the such smooth articulation and solid sculpt, every pose I desire for Skywalker comes out and so much more. Hopefully with a newer head sculpt he’ll be even better! I didn’t include many I own because while I love having many like Snowspeeder Luke, Clone wars Anakin and Kenobi, Bespin Luke, and many others they lack the smooth and great articulation for poses I desire

[@OutOfTheBasement]

[@skyrider4789]

I just watched this and realize my comments of some more recent videos were covered here. I agree with most of the pick (except for ESB Vader - like the improvements with the body, but still, they could've done better with the helmet -- especially since ESB is my favorite -- missed opportunity, when, as you guys said, they nailed the sand trooper helmet SO WELL. Dooku, Rosario Ahsoka, Hoth Trooper, etc., etc., sometimes it feels like they have an A-Team for the BS, where they get the sculpts and engineering and accessories just right that makes them untouchable by the imports, and then the C or D team for other figures. It doesn't seem like it's consistent with limitations of technology, budget, or other aspects, but I'd (and I'm sure many collectors) would love to know what allows Hasbro to sometimes 'nail it" and sometimes they hit the thumb with the hammer. I wonder if it's as with many corporate positions where you have some higher up that is a real enthusiasts that says: "we can do better" vs. someone who doesn't care as much who just cares about short-term bottom line. Anyway, sorry for the long comment. Thanks for the vid! - Y

I just started collecting, i am 15, so i don't have a job, and i have been wondering if TVC or Black Series would be better, i could get more figures a month for the TVC, but i feel like hasbro puts more effort and bang for your buck into the black series, i was wondering if you guys could suggest which line i should collect?

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Are you more interested in the figures themselves or are you interested in any worldbuilding aspects of collecting? TVC usually gets more accessories, dioramas, vehicles, etc. But Black Series has the better figure sculpts/articulation, considering it's a bigger scale. -Justin

[@MasterPlo]

@OutOfTheBasement I am a huge fan of being able to worldbuild and I really enjoy making dioramas

[@OutOfTheBasement]

TVC (and 3.75" scale in general) is the worldbuilding scale for sure! 6" is more-so for the appreciation of the character, the sculpt, the articulation, etc. But you'll get more accessories, more dioramas, more vehicles, more worldbuilding in TVC. -Justin

I feel bad for people who couldn't get that original Captain Rex. I got him for like 6 bucks, but that was because BBTS had a sale of the whole wave of mostly garbage sequel trilogy figures for $45.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

I actually found one at my local Ollie’s for $6 as well. Crazy how just because of that garbage wave so many people got it so cheap. -Nate

DeathWatch Mando is my greatest #1 all-time Black Series

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Not a bad choice! -Justin

Don’t forget Zuvio

[@dragmozugen7297]

Damn I still need a Rex 😭

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Really hoping he gets a rerelease with the celebration of The Clone Wars this year! Everyone deserves a Rex. -Justin

[@dragmozugen7297]

@@OutOfTheBasement I’m hoping they do a phase 1 helmet that’d be awesome

[@tvonscheele7370]

On the back of Cpt. Rex there’s a T207 on yours why is that? I have a Cpt.Rex and there’s no T207. What is the difference if any?

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Are you talking about the reference photo? That was one of the official Hasbro shots. -Justin

[@jacko_3770]

[@scalecrawlnl]

Thank you, fun episode! Probably I am not directly in the target audience, still, I would like to express my gratitude for your great KZbin action figure shows. I'm restarting currently a part of my action figure hobby which combines with the radio control, 'scale' crawlers (4x4 off-road). Hence the YT alias. An extra thank you therefore to you both gentlemen, Nate and Justin. Maybe we'll see you in the rc off-road scene as a cool cross-over sometime, that would be very nice. Long comment so naturally too, like left 👍

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Appreciate your support, Scale Crawl NL! Thanks for taking the time to comment. Take care and have a great weekend! -Justin

[@StraightOtohGunga]

I'm definitely a Covid collector lol 😆 I've been eating it up though

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Right! There are so many. It worked out for the channel though. -Justin

[@restock_1731]

Keep rubbing it in that the Emperor was easy to get. Ahhhhhh. Jk. 🤣. I'll also never get Shadow Squadron either, but I did paint a Carbonized Scout to look like the Shadow Scout. As for the Rex, for some weird reason my BBTS preorder says 2nd Quarter 2023, but I'm not holding my breath. I also got Maul in and that's a spectacular figure. Great list. 👍

[@OutOfTheBasement]

It's just such a tragedy! That Captain Rex reissue was cancelled, I'm not sure why BBTS still has it up. Thanks for watching, Mitch! -Justin

[@simonmaverick7018]

The Gam guards don’t have any character in the films. It’s hard to love someone with no personality. ESB is the greatest SW film. Great show guys.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

People love Boba Fett and he’s barely in any of the films. -Justin

[@simonmaverick7018]

@@OutOfTheBasement Yeah, but at least he has some dialogue - As you wish.

Great list! Red arm C-3PO snubbed though smh

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That's the most random thing I've ever seen from you. -Justin

[@zacharndt9221]

I tried to think of the most random figure to name 😂

[@robbvanderstoel7725]

My new thing is that Hasbro should sell individual heads (including selfie series). My list would include prototype armour Boba Fett and Asajj Ventress.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That'd be fun! Great picks, Robb. -Justin

Late today. 🤣

Mitch isn't first! -Justin

[@davidedge2828]

Ahhhh shit!!!! You guysss!! I'm sick of watching your top 10's and ending up with 7/8/9 of the bloody figures. I was watching smugly until no. 2 and I forgot about that sodding throne Emperor. Doesn't matter that there's 12 shinies, 16 hoth rebels, 5 bloody gams, both Rexs, 3 orange sandies and every other bloody sandie they've made including shadow dude all sat upstairs. Where's your throne room Emperor Davey? I hear you all mock! Well, I'll bloody tell you. I just went on ebay and so help me God it best be on there. It was and I just bought it. Mic drop. I rule! Do not dare change this bloody list!! (Unless I already have whatever you change!!) Mentioned last video I'd trigger pulled a grail last Sunday and it arrived on Wednesday packed up like the crown jewels thankfully. 2013 Essen CC Boba/Han Carbon 2-pac in pretty much mint condition. Mic drop 2!! Boom. I rule for the second time in one comment!! Great video as usual you gentlemans, although I really don't like rotj boba. It is sincerely my least favourite of the 10? bloody bobas I own.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

You mad lad! Can’t believe you just pulled the trigger on Emperor’s Throne. Sounds like eBay just came in CLUTCH! Right David? Congrats on that pickup. I know you’ll love it! Appreciate you checking out our list again! 🙏🏻 -Justin

@@OutOfTheBasement Clutch! Now there's a word I haven't used in a while!

[@stephenpenor9957]

First off I just got Darth Maul Clone wars and he should be on this list that's how great this figure is so correct guys! My favorite off all time is just like your guy's, the Orange Line Sandtrooper, plus the Shadow Squadron trooper the helmet is so amazing! My favorite because of how screen accurate it is! I so miss the weathering the paint! Bring it back! The Deluxe Bobba Fett OMG was such a great lift for the black series! You're right Justin the flight suit should have had weathering on it. Darth Maul clone wars! Yeah he just is perfect in every way! I have him posed with Ahsoka with his articulation it looks so great and I have the Mandolorian Ahsoka posed with him because of her articulation they both go together great. Anyways, Orange Line Sandtrooper is my all time favorite! Thanks OOTB! -Stephen

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Nice you got your Maul! Fantastic figure. Appreciate you checking out our list, Stephen! Have a great weekend. -Justin

[@kobeosborne8947]

So I started collecting last year but here's my top 10 in no particular order CW Maul CW Obi-Wan Emperor and throne Luke and Yoda Dagobah ARC Trooper Echo Cad Bane and Todo 360 Asajj Ventress ESB Darth Vader Deluxe Cal Kestis Bad Batch Echo I've definitely missed some great figures but here's 10 of my favourites

Great list, Kobe! Not bad at all for just starting last year! -Justin

[@RotalHenricsson]

Where Cara Dune where Bo-Katan where Wrecker where Clone Wars Obi-Wan this list is sus

[@bobavader1862]

Remember, this list has been complied by OOTB, it is not set in stone it is their opinion so your list will probably differ to everybody else's .

[@OutOfTheBasement]

I honestly think your comment is sus 👀 Cara Dune is not even a top 20 figure. She looks nothing like the actress. -Nate

[@pcproff]

No offense guys but show more of the figure vs you guys talking. Honestly, not jabbing just some feedback. Because some of us that do not know the black series that much want to see it in more detail

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching! -Nate

[@Eterniano]

Sandtrooper number 1 wtf, Rex Is better, where Is The gamorrean guarde? General greivous? Aré excellwnt figures from The black series.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Gam Guard is #5 on our list. Gotta watch the vid and not just skip to #1. Oh also general grievous as a BS figure is trash! You’ll find him on the worst of the line list. -Nate
