This is legit the best time to be a prequel fan if you collect black series

[@OutOfTheBasement]

100% agreed. -Justin

[@bwilson5401]

This is legit the best time to be a figure fan.But it'd be nice to be rich.

[@jonathanandersen778]

Great list guys, pretty much have all of these. For more older figures Count Dooku, Mace Windu, and Jar Jar have to be my top recommendations

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Jar Jar for sure! There’s a pretty easy Mace to get with the 2-pack. Is Dooku easy to get still? -Justin

[@mutantstrawberry2478]

@@OutOfTheBasementI got Dooku pretty easily.

[@DEATH2thaSTUpid]

I concur!!...🍺🍺🍻SI FI

[@starkillerbeats420]

The clone wars mace windu is a nice pick , jar jar is a great figure with nice accessories! I need dooku

[@Red_1911]

We really need a new ROTS Obi-Wan and Anakin. Also a Padme from the mustafar scene, a new Cody, various Jedi and we really need a prequel Yoda

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Newly sculpted Anakin and Obi-Wan are rumored! -Justin

[@mrprice7500]

The prequels are getting so much love. However. . .more Cantina Aliens. GIVE US!

[@OutOfTheBasement]

We agree! Thanks for watching Mr Price! -Nate

[@kobeosborne8947]

It's great to see all these prequel figures. I'd love to see more Jedi and more phantom menace figures like Watto and Nute Gunray.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Watto and Nute are essential! As well as Queen Amidala and Capatain Panaka if we're talking TPM specific. -Justin

[@americanwarriorluke4990]

Excellent List - I would definitely list Jar Jar Binks as a Prequel Must-Have top 10

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Great point! -Justin

[@jonathantyson8744]

Got my two droidekas a couple days ago and me and the kids were blown away by the articulation and details. My ki adi is shipping soon from bbts and I only preordered a couple weeks ago

[@OutOfTheBasement]

They are such fun figures! Ki-Adi is a great one as well. Enjoy! -Justin

[@brucerandall8963]

Great list guys! I just received the Droideka the other day and it's amazing! Glad the prequels are getting some love. Also, the other day, and friend and I were talking about where to meet for dinner and he said "We'll figure it out." And I immediately shouted " FIGURE IT OOOUT!!" LOL

[@OutOfTheBasement]

FIGURE IT OUT

[@Escape-TheHellview]

Fun kinda strange fact: The sidious figure on pre order in galaxy package single figure, uses ki adi mundi hands . I was at the con and I am really hoping we get a deliuxe with a alternate head and robe to represent the windu/palpatine battle in the chancellor’s office, pre lightning damage and that robe that he puts that red rob over or this robe which is fine but the two heads pre and post burnt 🥵 lol

[@OutOfTheBasement]

There's no shot Ki-Adi-Mundi and Sidious are using the same hands. -Justin

[@gold5221]

Banging list as always guys! For me jar jar would definitely pop up in my top ten! Keep up the great videos!

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Jar Jar should've been on our list for sure! -Justin

[@Chosenonecreations]

I found Mundi today and I can’t put it down! After further examining the articulation for myself I can see a bright future for some really awesome figures moving forward. The arm articulation for this guy just makes me frown at my episode 3 anakin 😂

[@OutOfTheBasement]

It’s soooo good! -Justin

[@MrSW1138]

Loved your list guys! Before you recreate your 10 most wanted figures, I'd love to see lists that you end up whittling down to that final list, like a most wanted PT, OT, and D+ shows, etc. My most wanted PT figures would be Watto, Sebulba, Saesee Tiin, Zam Wessel, Shaak Ti, Tarfful, Senator Palpatine, Nute Gunray, Rune Haaku & Captain Tarpals

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Hey dude! We actually have a playlist of Black Series wishlists. It goes by movie, too. Thanks for watching! -Justin

[@MrSW1138]

[@OutOfTheBasement]

We will at some point (hopefully this year)! -Justin

[@TheStonedMandalorian]

Hell yea fellaz! Awesome list. The anticipation for Darth Sidious is insane!! My droidekas are otw from BBTS and I’m also really anxious to have the single release SBD.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

[@1313Podcast]

Great video guys! I feel like this and last year have been such strong hits for Prequel figures. I'm curious to see too with Celebration and the RoTS anniversary if we'll get some figures from that movie now too. Stay cool 😎-Jackson

[@OutOfTheBasement]

I certainly hope they keep the train going! Thanks for watching, Jackson. -Justin

[@RyanS-ol3fi]

9:20 I used the 8 dollar shipping from bbts to the eu recently and it only took 10 days from it shipping to arriving at my house so honestly not bad at all

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That's awesome! -Justin

[@order66103]

My next purchases when I get around to it will definitely be the Droideka, Supper Battle Droid, and Ki-Adi-Mundi.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

They all come highly recommended! Excellent figures. -Justin

[@Chadwick805]

We need these vids more than u think guys!!

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Thanks for watching Chadwick! -Nate

[@13akis]

Great list guys! One question... because it's little controversial. The three pack with Obi, Qui and Maul is for 15cm figures or smaller? And as everyone done in the comments. I would LOVE to see them create a Count Dooku figure in his Prime era with the lightning effect and the magnificent detials of beloved Christopher Lee. May the Force be with You

[@banzaibobA7V]

I wonder how easy it would be to put that Darth Sidious hood on an old Emperor figure? That plastic hood looks so much better than the terrible cloth goods. Or maybe we'll get an updated Emperor at some point? 🤔

[@Darth_BNT]

Ye you bet they will re release the emporer from sequels with new mould different colours

[@kobeosborne8947]

I think the fact they're rereleasing the throne set probably means a OT Emperor won't be happening anytime soon

[@OutOfTheBasement]

I don't see that working, honestly. But who knows?!? Thanks for watching. -Justin

[@SW_Collector_]

Couldn’t agree more with the list. I personally already have most of these in hand or on pre order but for new collectors, they should be having a blast rolling in all these goodies. Banger video.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Same I have or am getting all of these! -Justin

[@danielmarrin1578]

I love the palpatine figure so pre ordered it day one. But when I see the lightning hands posed I just wish they made it a deluxe figure and threw in an extra hear where he is screaming "unlimited power!"

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That is not the outfit he’s wearing during that scene. Thanks for watching! -Justin

[@wayneduckett1961]

Hopefully my two Droidekas are being posted today, here in the UK.😊

Great choices guys! I'm actually a little jealous of people just starting out, what a great time to get into the line!! Have to shout out that deluxe Jar Jar, bluddy brilliant figure and I don't know how hard he is to get ahold of but Count Dooku is a masterpiece :)) rather like Kit Fisto too 😅

[@OutOfTheBasement]

[@theperceptor9287]

Hello Nate and Justin that's a great list of figures for the prequels. The only other figure that is still easily available is Jar Jar Binks and he is very affordable for $15 - $18 dollars 💵 I believe he's going for. I recently got a second Jar Jar when BBTS had him on sale for $13 I believe 🤔. I'm finally going to make a Sith Lord Darth Jar Jar LoL 🤣. I'll probably get one of Josh's black robes and a red lightsaber. The only pre-order prequel figures would be the droid 3 pack set but those I think are technically Clone Wars figures. Well what ever lol 😂. Thanks again guys for another great video, take care and I'll catch you Sunday. Tom 👍

[@OutOfTheBasement]

What's up, Tom! Thanks for checking out the new episode. Jar Jar is an excellent choice! -Justin

[@BL-ob9fn]

As a non-US, non-UK collector, I cannot recommend Big Bad Toystore enough. Excellent selection, excellent customer service, good prices, and their Pile of Loot option is essential for international customers. I only wish I could get my Blu-rays from them as well...

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That is so awesome that they ship internationally for $8! That's cheaper than Entertainment Earth United States shipping, lol. -Justin

[@TroyWarsHere]

What a time to be a 6inch Star Wars collector. Great vid as always guys‼️ oh btw Justin I like that your growing out your hair it looks good my brother👍and of course Nate yours looks good as well😂

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Fully agreed! Great time to be a collector. Appreciate it bro. I've been letting it go a little longer than I normally do. -Justin

[@Fuzzy_Barbarian]

Great video, guys. For me, it's gotta be the alien Jedi and Sith characters that are the big prequel characters for my shelf. It just feels very PT to have a bunch of random Jedi. But the army builders are the ones I'll spend most of my money on. So much variety and fun with the designs!

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Fully agreed! The alien prequel Jedi really help to flesh things out and makes it seem like a lived-in universe. -Justin

[@defender2222]

Hopefully the Disney Store puts Yoda and Gree up or Pulse puts more up at some point.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

I do believe they will! Similar to the Mace/187th pack. -Justin

[@MangaMan108]

I'm kind of glad I held off on buying the two pack for the B1 and B2 battle droid. I do want to pick up three or four of those B2 single packs, but I also need to pick up the three droid pack for the Jedi survivor since that B2 has the rocket arm. Hopefully they've made some improvements to that magna guard.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

I need two the clean B2s for sure! -Justin

[@silviu4476]

yeah that 8$ shipping from BBTS it is pretty slow,but for 8$ I can't complain,because I get higher shipping fees from local stores xD

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Yeah it really isn't that bad! That's still cheaper than Entertainment Earth's shipping in the States. -Justin

[@Fig_Fury]

Wonder how available these wiĺl be as time passes. I think they will all be relatively easy to get except maybe the Droideka. Awesome list, guys

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That’s a good question. I can see Droideka going too. Maybe even the single release of the SBD. Ki-Adi being slightly hard to get right now is a little surprising too. Thanks for watching brother! -Nate

[@Ethan_Lipsky]

Hey guys, do you have any suggestions on how to “fix” loose ball joints so that don’t limbs don’t just flop down and make figure impossible to pose? Specifically I just got my droideka in the mail and the tiny ball joint for the head is extremely loose. Also the right arm where the “shoulder” is if you want to call it that is also extremely lose and the arm just falls down at the shoulder

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Try "KiKi Fix Loose Joints" or mod podge. -Justin

[@Stiffkittens01]

GIVE ME THEED THROME ROOM QUEEN AMIDALA!!!!! Haindmaid Amidala would be cool too

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Greetings from the US! Welcome to the community. -Justin

[@michaelcooper1018]

As cool as the Darth Sidious figure looks, I'd pay extra, or even buy two, if the included a swappable "I'm just a regular guy, nothing to see here" head. Also, has Count Dooku become harder to get? I think that's one of the best figure of the entire line.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

I think they'll eventually do a red robe version. He's not seen as "regular Palpatine" in that specific costume of the figure. -Justin

[@jedijam91]

If we can get some Wookiee warriors from RotS I would have to get them all.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

That'd be sick! -Justin

[@brettnelson4540]

Hopefully by next year we’ll have ROTS obi wan and anakin to throw on this list 🤞

[@OutOfTheBasement]

💯 agreed! -Justin

[@ThaLouDawg]

New to black series. Do y'all have a video on how releases work? Looking to get the Duel's End Vader...Do the store exclusives ever go back in stock?

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Unfortunately, retailer exclusives usually "come and go." There have been instances of retailer exclusives coming back but I doubt that'd happen from Target themselves anytime soon. -Justin

[@nerfherderzach866]

We need A new Jango fett and a Zam Wessel. That would be an awesome 2 pack. They could come with the centipedes and the droid.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

100% agreed! -Justin

[@notobi-wan8344]

I say Jar Jar is missing from this list. Say what you want about his character but that figure is a banger and essntial to prequels

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Not really familiar with Mafex myself. -Justin

[@zacharndt9221]

Love the list! Would say the P1 Clone is too high considering the P2/B1 2-pack is a better deal. But 3,2,1 is perfect

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Phase I regular is more iconic and found much more in SW compared to Phase II regular. -Justin

[@mutantstrawberry2478]

My one problem with Qui-gon from the TPA 3-pack: the lower half of his half looks a little bloated.

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Hmmm haven't noticed that myself. -Justin

[@Stiffkittens01]

Little Ani could have come with his Pod race helmet. Either as an alt head with it on the head already or just the helmet. Maybe even dirty alt head too Dooku should have been waaay up on this list. One of the best BS figures period

[@OutOfTheBasement]

Is Dooku readily available though? That’s the point of this video. -Justin

[@One000turtles]

I don’t have a Qui gon or a padawan obi wan or a maul 😂 that being said, do you think I should get the three back? Do you think it’s worth it?
