Lando Calrissian from Empire Strikes Back (Star Wars Black Series)

"How ya doin' you old pirate?!"

Lando Calrissian is an old friend of Han Solo's who harbours the Millennium Falcon on his Cloud City on the planet Bespin after Leia, Han, Chewbacca, and the droids escape from the Empire after the battle of Hoth.


This figure pulled straight from "The Empire Strikes Back" and captures the charm of the character pretty well. The face sculpt really looks like Billy Dee Williams.  I don't have as strong a completionist mania for Star Wars figures like I do for some of the other lines I collect but I definitely wanted a Lando. (Maybe even two! Stay tuned for that...)






That moustache is era-appropriate.





Upscale casual.





Smart watch predecessor.











The Bespin Cloud City laundry uses a lot of starch.


It's a fun pattern inside.




Blaster and communicator.




"Reach for the sky!"


"The Empire has taken control of the city. I advise everyone to leave before more Imperial troops arrive."




"That's not the droid you're looking for!"
"This deal's getting worse all the time."

  1. Nice, he does have a pretty good face! Face printing has been such a game changer for Hasbro. Any other Black Series that are must acquires for your collection?
