The inaugural Black Series Most Wanted 2025 officially wrapped up yesterday, December 28th, bringing the first-ever community-wide voting event to a close — and with it, weeks of passionate discussion, deep-cut picks, and wish lists that reached every corner of the Star Wars galaxy.What started as a simple idea quickly became something much bigger. Collectors showed up in force, submitting their top 12 most wanted characters and proving just how invested the fandom still is in The Black Series line.
From long-requested characters to updated versions of existing figures and even creatures and large-scale characters, the submissions reflected just how diverse — and knowledgeable — this community truly is.The big question now: Will the Hasbro Star Wars Black Series team use this information to help guide future figure decisions?While there’s no official confirmation, the value of this kind of organized, data-driven fan feedback can’t be overstated. Seeing thousands of collectors align around specific characters, eras, and designs offers a clear snapshot of what fans are hungry for — and what gaps still exist on collectors’ shelves.
At the very least, it sends a loud and unified message: this is what the community wants.As for the most requested character, the results made one thing clear — there was a standout favorite that dominated conversations and submissions throughout the event. Whether that momentum translates into plastic remains to be seen, but the demand has now been documented in a way that’s hard to ignore.
Just as important as the results themselves is what this event represents going forward. With its first year now in the books, Black Series Most Wanted has the potential to become a true annual tradition — one that fans can rally around, refine, and grow year after year. And if this first run is any indication, next year’s voting could be even bigger.
To everyone who submitted lists, shared posts, and helped spread the word — thank you for making the first Black Series Most Wanted a success.
