Flashback Leia and Luke would be awesome.

They seem to know what they aredoing and for the most part are willing to learn from past mistakes. They also seem to be knowledgeable on the source material. The Star Wars Black Series team will come up with something great every once in a while but for the most part seem to be phoning it inlately.
Aside from the Legends team inexplicably putting out a caucasian headsculpt for an Indian character as an afterthought and seemingly refusing to revisit that character, I agree with you.

I'll even buy the 51 if they make them. I never played The Old Republic game due to my general avoidance of MMOs but there are certain ones I would get. I feel like these three in particular would make great action figures if done well:
I want Shae Vizla to have alternate helmet and unhelmeted headsculpts none of that giant removeable helmet crap.
Malgus, Satile Shan, and Shae Vizla are all must haves for me. And I've been saying the same thing about Shae's helmet for a while. That's what they did with the old TVC from years ago, and it seems to work great. They still put swappable helmeted heads and unhelmeted heads in TVC figures. I don't know why they won't for The Black Series. Seriously, take a cue from Marvel Legends, GI Joe Classified, and the smaller scale line, and get your $#!& together.

I almost forgot about HK-51, and I'd buy him, too. A lot of shared parts between a figure of 51 and 47 (or 50) should make going between the two pretty easy, and 51 would mean they were expanding the Gaming Greats line into TOR, which I really want them to do.

I'll have to see what the Mandalorian figures are to see if it's something I would buy; I want a Dark Trooper but I'm worried they'll make it a Dekuxe release which would make it difficult for me to army build due to price. The HK release sounds promising, I'm hoping either HK 47 or HK 50s. I have no interest in the rest.

So do I. So do a lot of people. By my count before it closed, he actually won the fan vote two years ago, and I'm convinced Hasbro just said Luke Skywalker won because they figured he's sell better or something. I'm also a little convinced someone working on The Black Series team just doesn't want to make him. It's been two years but so far the best collectors have is a TVC figure "in the pipeline."I was being sarcastic, dude. I thought the emojis made that clear.
I can't wait to see Ponda Baba. Hopefully we get more Cantina aliens down the line.

Goodness knows fans don't want him. ?????
I want him.
