Title: No Neimoidians or Separatists in 2007

From Action Figs (http://www.actionfigs.com/index.php?categoryid=12&p2_articleid=162):

Are you planning on releasing any new Separatist Leader figures in 2007?

We'll be filling the "alien" slots with other figures next year. But fans of the Nemoidians (and other Separtists) neededn't worry…. we do have plans to rotate them into future lines. Of course, this is always subject to change.

I am actually happy to hear that other aliens beside peg warming Neimoidians will be made.

I prefer a peg warming Garindan, Hem and Modaw any day over one of those freaks.

Damn, I was hoping for a Sentepeth Findos, or at least the Holo Nute released. Hopefully we'll see some resculpted Seperatist Droids though.

I agree. They could always release some of those.

Hopefully we will, Hasbro said no leaders & the droids aren't leaders! ;D

I hope so as it would be nice to do a diorama of the Seperatists either from AOTC or ROTS.  I am hoping for some more from ROTS just to have Anakin slice and dice and them.  It could be fun.  Or even the lineup on Utapau would be kind of nice.

Maybe they could do a set like the Imperial meeting set, except with all new sculpts.
Title: Re: No Neimoidians or Separatists in 2007
Post by: Rune Haako on September 4, 2006, 12:06 PM
That'd be cool, though they'd have to do two sets one for AOTC and one for ROTS.

With Hasbro being all batty about Battle Packs, why don't they do a Battle Pack called "Separatist Slaughter on Mustafar" that could include the following:

-Evolutions Anakin Skywalker (with Cloak, Saber, and Sith Eyes)
-2 x Security Battle Droid (POTJ repack)
-ROTS Nute Gunray (kitbash from previous 1999 and 2003 versions)
-Wat Tambor (Saga repack with vac-metal detailing)
-Lava Reflection Cantina Han Solo

As much as I think Neimoidians are pretty much retail suicide these days and a poor decision to do as a basic figure, I would still really like a ROTS Nute Gunray and that holographic version from TPM that was never released.

Yeah but not SA. :P

Does a CIS Leader really need to be SA? IMO the only figures that deserve the SA treatment are Troopers, Main Characters, or Jedi.

Yeah, look at the figure now, it won't even stand up.

Eh, good ideas Rune! I tried to have the whole council in the ROTS pack. Poggle's aide could be a simple re-hash of Sun Fac but with knees & a new paint job.

Last time I checked sculpting all new knees on a figure (That doesn't need it BTW) wouldn't count as a "simple rehash".

New legs, whatever. It can use the same body & head.

True, but now they are dumping those in 07.  You know for the badass coins we'll be getting  ::)

My Shu Mai doesn't stand up even on a stand, her legs are to flimsy. She eventually just leans over to where I have to boil and then freeze her to get her to stand for a while, and then do the process over again. I'm sure Cat Miin is the same way unless she's made out of a harder plastic though I don't have her so I dunno.

Figures should be able to stand without having a base. You sound like a Hasbro rep.

That's what bases are for...but what are coins/fact files/slides/ holo pieces for???

I only  wish we were getting stands...

I like the stands. I like putting figures in running poses that wouldn't be possible without them. I also like the coins or slides... holos don't do anything for me.

I wish they'd have some more Separatists next year. A Sith Gunray is a must, plus a Po Nudo. And they should include those mouse droid precursors as well... I'd also like a San Hill as well.

At the least make me a San Hill again; this time single carded. I don't care, they could even kit bash/repaint him as long as it's not a straight repack(see vader ::))
Title: Re: No Neimoidians or Separatists in 2007
Post by: Darth Depressis on September 13, 2006, 02:40 PM
totally, san hill was included in the worst of the cinema scenes, i mean i already had like two dookus at that time and i got poggle by himself on ebay, and san hill just seemed like a waste of shipping, i'd be paying for the box. lol but defently atleast a repaint.

I wonder if this means Dooku & Grievous as well?

It could, but since he was also a Sith, er pawn, he could escape an 07 exclusion.

Grievous, Asajj & durge aren't really leaders more like warriors. ;)
I want new SA versions of them next year!
