[Haythaway]

here's to a whole new year of Edging with uncle Mike.

[ericpawling]

I’m 53 and have been collecting SW since 78’ and there’s absolutely no shame in it. Here’s looking forward to an awesome 2025 collecting.😁

[mikejsouth]

I haven't bought a star wars figure in many years now. I appreciate the recap! Very impressed with some of the stuff I completely missed.

[Harpoquondrax]

You're making me regret passing on the Yoda / Gree pack. Great list though, here's to an awesome '25

[cmcguckin]

I am almost 40 and still collect black series. Slowed down a bit cause of the kid but he’s awesome so it’s a good trade off lol. Great video have most of what you listed and didn’t realize how many I got this year. Thanks for being a bright spot In toy collecting and in Star Wars in general

[TheLanimation]

As always, my favorite time of the year for your reviews! Even if I didn't buy half of your top 10, I agree with your choices! I'm searching for Luke and Leia as I heard they're in my state this week. Kudos to pronouncing Joruus C'Baoth's name. Now I just have to nail spelling it without consulting lol. I never would have got the pronounciation on my own, YTers helped there. 6:37 You said 7 Ep I figures but it looks like the Droideka is missing. Oh well. Maybe you were hiding it for the reveal of spot #5!

[brianschneider]

Black series cantina is my absolute favorite podcast I definitely understand what you said because my wife thinks it’s crazy that I listen to podcasts episodes that are 3 hours just about black series you guys rock keep it up

[tuskennation]

Still the best Black Series Top 10 list on the internet. Well done.
Very funny too! Thanks Mike!

[slipshodaverage]

That Pirate Captain Brutus is crazy. That's some incredible character design, and I really need to watch Skeleton Crew now.

[BlitzTransmissions]

Awesome list! I’m excited to get my hands on Luke and Leia, seeing them so high for you makes me excited! Here’s to a great 2025!

[FullonMars]

I liked the idea of getting Gree in his standard armor and not the Kashyyk armor. That 2 pack was the best of 2024 for me. Just wish Gree had a removable helmet. Great video as always Mike!

[jasonindoe]

YES! Knew this one was coming eventually! Best SW reviewer on the net! Also I'm 52, and zero shame for collecting this line, young grasshopper LOL. Makes me feel like a kid again.

[Jo.b.]

[joebrech]

Awesome list! I look forward to this more than most videos every year. (See what I did there twisting your intro?) My list is similar with a few surprises here and there.

10. Neel - The head sculpt and accessories are really nice with this little guy. Also I love the character.

9. Osha - I feel Hasbro came in hard with The Acolyte figures. Say what you want about the show (I liked it) but the sculpt is really good.

8. Mae - You could bundle this one with Osha. I like the cloak and face mask a little more than Osha's accessories.

7. Pirate Captain Brutus - I ended up liking this figure more than I thought that I would. He's another amazing sculpt with lots of paint and 5 freakin' blasters!

6. The Pit Droids - I passed on the Disney Droid Pack, so these are my first Pit Droids and I absolutely love them. They also come with a really nice R5-D4 accessory.

5. Captain Enoch - Just another in a ever growing line of characters that just look SO cool. Hasbro nailed his look.

4. Hammerhead - He will ALWAYS be Hammerhead to me. It's always amazing when Hasbro uses a little wash on the figures. It makes a world of difference.

3. KI-Adi-Mundi - I know that you hate this guy, but he is easily the most articulated Jedi we have in the line. The sculpt is incredible as well. It was a LONG wait for him, but well worth it.

2. Droidika - I understand that there isn't a lot you can do with it other than have it stand there, but that's all that I needed. This has been at the top of my most wanted list for so many years. Holy crap I feel Hasbro delivered with this one.

H.M. IG-12 - It was a real toss up with IG-12 and Neel. I love this figure, but I have a feeling I like Neel's character a little more and that gave Neel the edge. (I can make an edging reference as well.)

1. Super Battle Droid - I wanted to put the Droidika here so badly, but honestly this is a nearly perfect figure. I feel that this very well may be the #2 figure Hasbro has ever made. (I will probably die on the hill with my old trusty Gamorrean Guard, but it's very close.)

Loved your top ten… I’ll be 55 this year and I’m still buying Star Wars figures like it was 1977-78 when my mom would buy them for me . There is No shame in it at all. With the way the world is going a figure doesn’t hurt anyone lol !!! So if you’re reading this go buy a fig !!! Take care Ed …

[davidpyott]

Another great video dude Excellent choices and all round funny and amusing experience 🤘👍

[philipcozzolino]
