Star Wars Black Series Tie Pilot
Pros
Sculpt is tight, creases in suit give off baggy vibe
Breathing tubes move, disconnect from chest and helmet ports
Empire symbols are clean
Black is glossy unlike Shadowtrooper
Cons
None
Overall
Nice. All that’s needed to be said. Cool character, cool figure, well done. Has all the standard Black Series articulation, plastic is solid, joints hold their position. Details on the helmet, chest, arms are all on point. Comes with a Trooper blaster and holster so you can have him interacting in the world without his Tie Fighter. Now, Hasbro, let’s get on this 6 Inch Scale Tie Fighter please. I can already hear all the reasons why it’s not feasible, don’t care. Get on it. :) Check out some key shots, and the full gallery after that!

Setting it off with the Clone Trooper Sergeant!

I saw this at a Walgreens, of course the only one they didn't have from the wave was the one I was looking for (TIE pilot), but I will say this guy looked neat. I passed since I only get OT right now, but I like to think that maybe someone who actually really wanted this might of found it there where I left it. Now lets get ready for for Hasbro to redo it again in red, blue, and yellow. Why stop there, do a mucky sand sprayed version of the regular one from that part where they were trooping through the sand storm. Seriously though I don't want these guys to become regular in the series just with different decos until maybe later in the line.
The Clone Sergeant has been a tough pass for me lately.
) so leaving him on the shelf/pegs has been difficult.
I've convinced myself that until Hasbro gives us 6" figures of Quinlan Vos, Aayla Secura, or heck, even Ahsoka (even though we'll most likely never see any of them in 6" form), I don't have any need for any Clones in my collection. However, they look good, and I've enjoyed this line a lot so far (well, when I can actually find them

Like you pointed out, there are so many important charcters from the movies who still need figures, and the upcoming Episode VII is going to introduce SOOO many new characters as well.
And even though Aayla had brief appearances in Episodes II and III, there are plenty of other Jedi who are featured more prominently in the movies who I would imagine would get figures first.
Also, now that the previous EU has been basically eradicated to make way for the new Disney-approved EU, and because Disney has largely shown nothing but animosity towards the Clone Wars, those characters have an even smaller chance of ever being made. But, oh well... maybe if the Black series continues well into the new Trilogy, maybe Hasbro will give us a wave of currently out-of-continuity characters. Lol, I'm not gonna get my hopes up though.

I've ranted too much already. General point: I'd like to see some EU/non-canonical/debatable canon characters get 6" toys but not until the movies get fair treatment first.
Yoda is up!

Star Wars Black Series 6 Inch Yoda Gallery - The Toyark - News
Yeah, when I saw Yoda at Walgreens I was a little upset about the deal of his size yet still full price. As someone has said on the ark before though, we don't have to pay more for the big guys like Chewie so there's a small sliver of comfort in the price being flat for all figures. Great pics (especially that last one), but I didn't know Yoda had so much junk in his trunk.
And thanks on the pic props. I like how this round came out.
Tie Pilot caps the wave, up now!

SUPER great shots there. I am in LOVE with that last one with the Tie in the back. Needs to be a desktop background.
