Hasbro Star Wars: The Black Series Inquisitor and Duros Bounty Hunter (Halloween Edition) 2-Pack Review and Images

It's Wednesday, and you know what that means: ToyFarce review!

This week, we're having a look at the Star Wars: The Black Series Inquisitor and Duros Bounty Hunter (Halloween Edition) 2-pack from Hasbro! Yes! More Star Wars Halloween Edition figures! This set is exclusive to Amazon. I'm a sucker for those holiday themed figures, and love Halloween so this was a no-brainer. Could it have been done better? Sure. But I'm still glad we got something!

I thought this set would be available around Halloween, but it came way earlier than I thought (Amazon started to ship them in late July/early August), so I've been keeping it on the side for October. The packaging is quite sober, using purple and orange (official Halloween colors!). Not sure why it came as a 2-pack, while the previous Skeleton Clone Trooper and Wookiee were sold separately, but hey, as long as they don't make me buy each from separate stores like the Christmas ones, I'm fine with it!

The Inquisitor figure has been revamped (pun intended) as a vampire, in the style of Dracula, while Cad Bane (or just a random Duros bounty hunter) has been turned into the Frankenstein Monster. They also come with a vampire Mynock (black with purple wings) and a tiny Anzellan also dressed as the Frankenstein Monster. The Inquisitor comes with a knife and sheath, and a stick (supposed to be a stake?). The Duros bounty hunter has an electrostaff with effects, because electricity! Get it? The figures are pretty standard, using the same mold as the original Black Series ones, even having the blaster holders on the Duros bounty hunter's legs, although he doesn't come with blasters... The Halloween decos are really nice, though!

I mentioned it could have been done better, so here is my rant: They have Christopher Lee (Count Dooku) and Peter Cushing (Grand Moff Tarkin) in the Star Wars world, who both played in a Frankenstein movie (The Curse of Frankenstein, 1957 with Peter Cushing as Victor Frankenstein and Christopher Lee as the Monster) *and* a Dracula movie (Dracula, 1958 with Christopher Lee as Dracula and Peter Cushing as Van Helsing). I imagine it is a licensing issue, but having either of them in this 2-pack would have been a nice nod. (NECA has a great Christopher Lee Dracula figure out right now, so I guess we got that going for us.)

Well, I1m in the minority, but these repaints do enough for me. From the Halloween aspect, it just does what it tend to be. Also, the accessories are nice. I do agree on how the two classic actors would be cool to have in the form of Dracula and Frankenstein, but there are always missed opportunities. it's a fun ride though. The review is a blast as always!

Thank You, appreciate it but I'm in Canada and it's still regular price here, and to import it from US will be full price for me as well sadly.

Honestly ugh I hate that I want this 2 pack so badly, I just love everything going on here,I just have way to many purchases as of lately to justify this random item, I'll wait and see if it goes on sale at some point for one of Amazon's sale thingys, because I really love this, and I do already have the other two Halloween BS figures.

I saw this was on sale at Amazon yesterday (still is). Still not super interested in them though. I love the first two Halloween SW figures but these just... don't do anything for me. Great point about Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, kind of a missed opportunity.
