Should change the title to releases not figures. It’s not that the figures are bad but that the accessories or something minor is affecting it for most.
Hot take: My worst Black Series purchase this year is the Darth Maul & Sith Speeder. One of the ankles looks like it was bent therefore the figure can’t maintain a neutral pose. Lightsaber was using a plastic that was gummy and the blades couldn’t be removed from simple pull. Far too afraid of breaking the pegs. Proportions are horrendous at the shoulders as they sit far too low compared to the rest of the upper body and the paint app for the makeup isn’t even close to resemble the one featured in Phantom Menace and that is on all units and re-releases through single and multi-pack.
Hasbro has been inconsistent with their plastic as the hands on the Purge Troopers from Jedi Fallen Order were so stiff, I had to heat the hands to put their weapons on the hands and the hinge joint on my Classified Retro Duke left hand snapped off when I was about to switch his hands and it pissed me off so much.
I may have gone all in on Ashoka figures, but Baylon and Shin were woeful. I really like the characters tho. So far all I have is Huyang. The real hero of the series. 🤖
Merry Christmas. I like the Mandolorian figure, but I agree on removing the jet pack and replacing the cloth cape w/plastic. I like the Masters of Evil 3 pack, however I wish they would have Darth Maul, and Tarkin, however Grievous looks great. I don't like the holographic figures. They use characters that were not in the movies. I like Princess Leia, Darth Sidious, Darth Vader, etc.
Merry Christmas Luke! But if you reach 15k and I win, please use specialty wrapping paper. Preferably star wars,or star trek. Transformers, Masters of the universe, marvel, preferred pre-mcu, or more specifically the booby Downy era, space 1999, lost in space, predator,pre- Disney, dark horse, batman,no batfleck, that iteration makes me nauseous, superman, preferred, golden or silver age. Will except super Henry, ultraman, Kamen rider, Halo, Terminator, aliens, g I Joe. Or mazinga z, getter robo, tetsujin 28. Gridman, or famous monsters of filmland. 😂❤
My honorable mention is the entire acolyte figures and they not horrible and the reason is because I hate the series so much, like what the fuck man and I know I said the figures are not horrible, but they don’t appeal to me at all and I would’ve rather seen Terminator Zero figures over acolyte any day.
WORST list are the worst... BUT, based on your criteria, perhaps this list should be "Most Disappointing Black Series Figures of 2024".
agree on most, except Pyke.

Happy Holidays ☃️
The book of boba was definitely a bad show 😂

Hey Luke great list and hope your having a happy Christmas Eve
They aren't really bad figures. It was more about odd choices by Hasbro.
Merry Christmas! Hope you have a lovely X Mass!

NAh Pike soldrier deserves more love. These are in other shows aswell.
I bought this whole list except for may and osha lmao
@lukenessmonster why wasn’t Grand Admiral Thrawn on this list? I think you got paid off by the imperial remnant. 😂

I did get Shin and Balen I pre-ordered them from Amazon both came with orange lightsabers the only good thing from the two figures.
Pretty accurate list. Shin, Babylon, everything from Acolyte, etc… all not great.
Hello there
The Book of Boba Fett was not a bad show. It grew on me. It was definitely better than Ahsoka and the Acolyte.
