Title: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: Jesse James on September 1, 2011, 06:07 PM
Hasbro has announced a new Fans' Choice Poll for Star Wars!

New Star Wars Fans' Choice Poll (http://www.jedidefender.com/newspro/fullnews.cgi?newsid1314914578,51523,)

We'll have details soon on how we plan to poll our readers to send into Hasbro.

This is pretty exciting stuff.  Can't wait to see who's going to make the top 20 list!

These things are always rigged. Hasbro already picked the winner...and it is probably the ROTJ Blu-Ray edition Dug.  :P

Could be, but EU's a lot more fractured and stuff these days.

I wouldn't say no to another Ebon Hawk crewmember from KOTOR winning. Seems like the only way we'll ever get them. I wants me some T3 to go with HK at least.

I'm really wondering what direction this poll will go in.  So it makes sense to look at where we've been in the previous polls:

Here are the standings from the 2009 poll.  The submissions were made by Hasbro Star Wars Q&A participating sites, and the final vote was conducted by the now-defunct Toyfare magazine:

1 - Bastila Shan 10.6%   POLL WINNER - DUE OUT Q4/'11
2 - Jocasta Nu 10%
3 - Darth Caedus 8%
4 - Darth Plageuis 7.9%
5 - Jaxxon 4%
6 - Admiral Pellaeon 3.7%
7 - Dash Rendar 3.7%
8 - Guri 3.6%
9 - Dorme 3.5%
10 - Bariss Offee 3.5%  MADE - VC-51
11 - Weequay Skiff Master 3.5%  MADE - VC-48
12 - Tzizvvt 2.9%
13 - Kittster and Wald 2.8%
14 - Toryn Farr 2.6%
15 - Cane Adiss 2.4%
16 - Rebel Fleet Trooper 2.4%  MADE - VC-52
17 - Bom Vimdin 2.4%  MADE - VC-53
18 - Cliegg Lars 2.3%
19 - Joruus C’Baoth 2.3%
20 - Grand Moff Tarkin 2.1%
21 - Ben-Quadinaros 2.1%  DUE OUT Q1/'12
22 - Darth Sidious 1.9%  MADE - VC-12
23 - Queen Apailana 1.8%
24 - Tey How 1.8%
25 - Sim Aloo 1.7%
26 - Sgt. Doallyn 1.5%
27 - Taym Dren-Garen 1.3%
28 - Dr. Evazan 1%  DUE OUT Q1/'12
29 - Corde 0.8%
30 - Queen Jamilla 0.7%



I think this poll is going to be decidedly different.  I don't think the top ten from the past poll are going to rank as well this time around.  Who will?  That remains to be seen.  But I think if the collecting community can rally around a few characters, those will probably be the ones that make the top ten.
Title: Re: New Hasbro Fans Choice Poll
Post by: Scott on September 1, 2011, 11:04 PM
Agreed...not having toyfare run the poll will definitely shift things away from EU in my opinion...not sure who the community will even rally around because there really isn't to me a stand out unmade character other than the Tonnika Sisters.

Grand Moff Tarkin has been confirmed too, Nick
Title: Re: New Hasbro Fans Choice Poll
Post by: Nicklab on September 1, 2011, 11:08 PM
I only noted figures that have been offered at retail, or there has been visual confirmation of a hard copy figure.  Once Hasbro actually SHOWS a hard copy of a figure publically, it's pretty much a lock.  I've seen the mention of Tarkin via the Q&A process, too.  But until we see a hard copy version I think there's the potential for a change.  Hence my notations.

ICMG and RFT have been made, so Scott and Jesse won't rig the results.  ;)

In reality, I guess we'll find out when it's all over.

I think it's horse**** that they stipulate any characters from the Clone Wars that win have to be made in the realistic style.

You've already alienated me from even wanting to participate now, Hasbro.
Title: Re: New Hasbro Fans Choice Poll
Post by: darth_sidious on September 2, 2011, 09:44 AM
I think Jocasta Nu might come back with a vengeance, seeing how upset people were when she came in second and Hasbro still refused to make her.
Title: Re: New Hasbro Fans Choice Poll
Post by: P-Siddy on September 2, 2011, 10:14 AM
I heard there was some ballot stuffing going on in regards to Jocasta Nu at one time... but now with the release of the Lost 20, she'll have more screen-time and perhaps more backing. A Jedi Librarian figure, cool!
Title: Re: New Hasbro Fans Choice Poll
Post by: Jeff on September 2, 2011, 12:41 PM
I think my top two for a poll like this have to be Tzizvvt and Cliegg Lars.

Tziv seems like the kind of Cantina Alien that's going to be overshadowed by Baniss Keeg and "The-Girls-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named" unless he ups his profile through a poll like this.  Plus the similarity to Wiosela hurts his chances too.  I'd love to see him place better than the 12th he got in the last poll.

And poor Cliegg has led the JD AOTC Wishlist for SEVEN straight years.  The fact that we have AOTC Beru and AOTC Owen now makes his absence even more painful.  He deserves to be way higher than the 18th he got last time.
Title: Re: New Hasbro Fans Choice Poll
Post by: Scockery on September 2, 2011, 12:45 PM
I'd vote for Jaxxon over Jocasta.

My money is on the bunny.

He'd beat her by a hare.

Title: Re: New Hasbro Fans Choice Poll
Post by: Jesse James on September 2, 2011, 01:14 PM
My 2 top picks would be Lt. Sheckill and maybe a Cantina alien like Jeff's Tizzvizit pick.

Or maybe replace Sheckill with the white suited Snaggletooth from Jabba's place...  I'd love to finally get him done.

Otherwise my picks would be human goons from ANH:SE and ROTJ because we really need more human goons.  I don't know that many agree, but I'd at least like the dude that shoots Luke's hand at some point.  :'(

By the way, we've hased out how we're going to do this still...  We have a pretty slick idea I think, courtesy of our JD Polling guru, and so look for that announcement in the near future.
Title: Re: New Hasbro Fans Choice Poll
Post by: Jeff on September 28, 2011, 11:55 PM
So, because I'm a bit of a math nerd, I spent the night stopping by a whole bunch of Star Wars websites to try to beat Hasbro and Star Wars Insider to the punch. 

Yep, I pulled all the top ten lists I could find, applied Hasbro's #1 gets 10 points, #10 gets 1 point formula and the following is what I came up using the available results so far...

18 sites are included in the summary below:  Jedi Defender, Rebelscum, Han's Hideout, Yak Face, Bantha Skull, Jedi Temple Archives, Collector's Cantina, Droids and Ewoks, Echo Base News, Jedi Insider, Sir Steve's Guide, Snowtroopers, Jedi News, Mousedroid, Sandtroopers, SW Collector, Lichtgeschwindigkeit.de, and Yoda's News.

NOTE:  this is not scientific or official by any stretch, just one stat nerd's attempt to figure out who the top twenty will be for the pure speculation/fun of it.  ;)

With that, I give to you The unofficial Fans' Choice Top 20 (so far):

105   Jocasta Nu
72   Toryn Farr
56   Sergeant Doallyn
50   Darth Plagueis
45   Sim Aloo (Imperial Dignitary)
38   Cliegg Lars
31   Nikto Guard (Vintage Deco)
31   Saelt-Marae (a.k.a. Yak Face)
30   Nute Gunray (RotS)
27   Mosep
24   Tzivvzt
23   Captain/Admiral Piett
20   Guri
18   Princess Kneesaa
16   Mara Jade Skywalker
15   Joruus C'baoth
15   Noghri Warrior
14   Ackmena
14   Jaxxon
13   Fozec

Please see the updated results below!

Nice to see Gunray in the Top 20, he'll be getting my vote if you're correct! :P

How many sites are left that we don't have the final results for yet?

I know we don't for Imperial Shipyards and SWActionNews, any others?

Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: McMetal on September 29, 2011, 08:55 AM
Does Toryn Farr have some kind of cool EU backstory that would cause fans to want her? Because I am scratching my head over that one...seems like an incredibly boring "action" figure.

I'm not even going there with Jocasta, I still think people are just voting for her to irritate Hasbro.

Doallyn would be the bomb.
Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: Scott on September 29, 2011, 09:41 AM
There are very few characters with speaking lines in the OT with speaking lines that have not been made...I think that sort of the reason for Jocasta Nu and Cliegg Lars as well

Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: darth_sidious on September 29, 2011, 09:51 AM
A lot of people clearly and legitimately want to see Jocasta Nu made, and they know because of Hasbros own bias that this is probably the only way to get her. 
Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: Scott on September 29, 2011, 09:56 AM
I'd say false on that...there are some people that want Jocasta made...not a lot.  And I'd say a large reason for her being so high on the list above is that some people are way more active on other forums polls.  Larger polls such as ours and RS show that she is really not that popular

SWAN's results will be in their next podcast, I'm not sure about Shipyards poll status.  I never saw anything that Galactic Hunter ran a poll.  Nothing on their front page that I saw and their forums are down...  not sure if anyone else is out there.  Cold be a few "general" toy sites maybe?

If anyone sees more poll results get posted out there, let me know and I will update the scorecard.

That's kind of a bummer.  I'd buy a Jocasta Nu, but I don't see where polls ahead of Toyrn Farr, who has been parked on fan lists forever.
Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: SnTrooper on September 29, 2011, 01:23 PM
Looking at Imperial Shipyards and Toyarks votes it looks like they're results won't affect this list much. They may push Darth Malgus into the Top 20 but that's about it. I wouldn't be surprised if Action Figure Insider forgot to enter their list. They only had six votes in the first two days their poll was up then nothing. SWAN's vote could shift those last couple slots.

Jeff,

Thanks for doing this.

I'm still not sure what action features Jocasta has, but I'd love Toryn for more Hothie goodness. Anyways, nice to see where it's at.
Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: JediJman on September 29, 2011, 01:55 PM
Cool list Jeff.  It will be interesting to see how this compares to the official list.  I always wondered if there might be a little rigging of the numbers across all the sites.

I am definitely not in the Jocasta crowd.  Wasn't there an issue with her in prior polls where some people were voting multiple times to get her into the top ten?  I know JD was able to track and block multiple votes, but do other sites use similar rigor?  Just wondering if her rank is driven by a strong vote on the "less capable" sites.  I suppose someone that really wants her could go vote on every site as well - I was lazy and just voted here.
Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: Jesse James on September 29, 2011, 02:02 PM
Yes, there has been ballot-stuffing for her in the past...  Some of it more clear than others, but definitely there were issues.

Scum was able to completely omit ballot stuffers, and it worked well.  I find their list pretty reflective of their actual participants wishes...  Same with ours.  Like Scott said, when you weed them out, Jocasta Nu doesn't even make the top 20.  It's a vocal minority from what I've seen.

I'd buy a Jocasta Nu too, so I'm not biased in that regard.  I don't really want her though.  It's like Yarna...  I didn't want a 6 teeted stripper action figure.  ANYONE from Jabba's den of sin was more on my list.  Any resculpt, any hero, any villain, any background weirdo...  Even a table.  But I bought Yarna when they made her and she's a decent action figure for what she is.

Jocasta's kind of like the Jedi version of that (other than I prefer OT to PT I guess).  I'll buy her if/when she gets made, but I'll not be voting for her to get made because it's just nothing I'm interested in ever owning.  Basically any figure in Jeff's list is more appealing to me.
Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: darth broem 2 on September 29, 2011, 02:52 PM
One of the main reason Jocasta does not do as well on this website is because MOST of the members here prefer the OT over the PT.  I don't get that same vibe over at say Rebelscum.  I can see why she gets more votes than Doallyn and Torryn Farr and the others.  The main reason is she actually gets a featured scene with a main character Kenobi.  She's just intriguing enough to get more votes than simple background characters.  I was actually happy to see her in the CW episode.  I think a Clawdite takes her form and we wind up seeing her in some action.  LOL!  She's got that episode going for her along with those that watch the CW.   All of that together bumps her up just that much higher than the others like Sim Aloo, Nikto, Doallyn, Lars, etc.  I really don't think there is that much tampering or conspiracy going on with the votes.  She's just more recognizable then what people might think.

Post by: bocrebjedi on September 29, 2011, 02:57 PM
A couple of those bottom ones could also get pushed up if Hasbro pulls out figures they know they are currently making.  I can see them possibly pulling Princess Kneesaa, since she is a possibility as an exclusive.

One of the main reason Jocasta does not do as well on this website is because MOST of the members here prefer the OT over the PT.  I don't get that same vibe over at say Rebelscum. 

She didn't even finish in the top 10 at RS.  Yeah there is some demand...but if the same 3-4 people all vote on all of the same small websites (and for Ackmena and Princess Keneesa for that matter) that is going to skew the vote IMO and isn't really in the spirit of the poll in general. 

She may win and I don't really care...I'll buy her too I just don't buy the overwhelming support is all

By "a lot" of people, I dont mean millions, lol - but apparently enough to place her in the #1 spot across all the websites - that says something right there.  All the sites I've checked out, have made sure people with the same IP arent voting multiple times, so people do want her made.  Personally, she's not my first choice, but I think the numbers speak for themselves.  I guess we all just have to wait and see how the general public votes...

Coreplanets was asked by Hasbro to submit a list as well.  http://www.coreplanets.com/forum/showthread.php?600-Top-10-Fan-Choice-Figures-HERE!&p=7826#post7826
Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: efranks on September 29, 2011, 05:00 PM
Just looking over it, it looks like I have numbers for 21 sites that submitted lists and it looks like 13 of them picked Jocasta Nu in their top 10.  Toryn Farr was right behind her with 10.

I don't have all the numbers yet because I still have to figure out exactly what 10 that Imperial Shipyards and Core Planets submitted (they had ties and I don't know how they resolved them yet).  But it looks like we have the following origins for the characters:

43 EU
21 ROTJ
8 ANH
8 TCW
7 AOTC
6 TESB
3 ROTS
3 TPM

I'm actually happy that EU has the largest representation because that's where most of the best character choices are at this point.  There are a few like Toryn Farr and Cliegg Lars that still need to be done, but a lot of other Saga characters are really obscure or are updates to figures we already have, and in some cases are pretty guaranteed even without a poll. 

I think more Emperor/Sidious figures, Piett, Tarkin, Nien Nunb and some of the Leia variants (Ewok, Bespin Gown which was oddly missing) are just a matter of time now and I hate seeing them on these polls because i feel like they're wasting space.

I'm surprised by the number of sites that submitted Nikto (5, assuming they're all vintage deco) and Nute Gunray (also 5).  I think I posted over on RS that it feels like there are a few sites that share a lot of the same members and those members used this poll to push characters up the lists that don't necessarily belong there.  Any time more than one Neimoidian makes one of these polls I have to call it suspect.  Besides, just looking through some of the forums to pull out the lists over the last two days, I saw a lot of familiar names on multiple sites.  On a site like this or RS that have larger communities, it's harder to do, but when you're talking Imperial Shipyards or Core Planets (who had like 13 total voters) with smaller communites, it's not that hard to pull off.

I'm glad Jeff went through and pulled out the top 20...I was starting to go crosseyed looking at Excel, trying to make sure I didn't mix up my rankings.  Finally gave up and just decided to look at characters submitted by the most sites, their origins and things like that.

I'm surprised by the number of sites that submitted Nikto (5, assuming they're all vintage deco) and Nute Gunray (also 5).  I think I posted over on RS that it feels like there are a few sites that share a lot of the same members and those members used this poll to push characters up the lists that don't necessarily belong there.  Any time more than one Neimoidian makes one of these polls I have to call it suspect.

There are more Neimodian fans out there than you think. :P

I don't see why Nute Gunray doesn't belong there.

There was also no rule that said we couldn't submit our votes to every site, that's actually what you should do.

I did on all the sites I knew that were doing it, Gunray was my #1 on all the ones I did too.

Post by: Jeff on September 30, 2011, 10:25 AM
I should note a few irregularities in the poll... 

Mara Jade Skywalker.  For the purposes of my combo poll, and in the interest of trying to act as Hasbro does, I combined all votes for her into one.  I think technically some sites are voting for "Emperor's Hand Mara" while others are voting strictly for "Mara Skywalker".  I'm fairly confident that Hasbro will just combine them and pick the version they want, but she will probably drop out of the top twenty if you separate out the two versions.

And RotJ Palpatine has snuck his way into the top 20 now.  A lot of site results said "Palpatine with Throne", but Hasbro specifically said the winner has to fit on a Vintage card and there is no way they will get a throne on a basic vintage card.  So, either they will drop the throne part and leave RotJ Palps up for voting, or they will drop him altogether since "Palpatine with Throne" is too big.

Anyway, just two little things that could still switch things up at the bottom of the list...
Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: Scott on September 30, 2011, 10:34 AM
The Noghri and Kneesaa have also been confirmed via Q&A a few times...they might not make the final list either.

IIRC last time, the final list and the guessed list were a little off based on previous Hasbro confirmations
Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: darth_sidious on September 30, 2011, 10:41 AM
My only real hope for the upcoming Fans Choice vote is that Hasbro confirms which characters on the top twenty list are coming out anyway, so we dont waste votes on confirmed characters. My top choice is Kneesaa, but since she is semi-confirmed, I hope we get a solid confirmation from Hasbro that they are going to release an Ewok exclusive pack containing her - so I and others can use our votes on other characters...

Thanks for compiling all of this info here guys, it is interesting to read through.  I guess it is just the point we are at with this line after so many years, but man there are a lot of characters on those lists I could care less about.  But, at the same time, I understand everything has its own fanbase.  I don't expect the Fan's Choice lists to be Anakin, Obi-Wan, Luke, Han, Chewie, Vader, etc.  Overall, I'm hoping for anything that is from the movies, hopefully the OT, but either would be ok.

As far as the Jocasta Nu thing goes, it does seem a bit fishy to me too.  Like others have said, I'd buy her too if she gets released, but outside of her being an un-made character from the movies I can't think of a much more boring action figure.

I'm surprised by the number of sites that submitted Nikto (5, assuming they're all vintage deco) and Nute Gunray (also 5).  I think I posted over on RS that it feels like there are a few sites that share a lot of the same members and those members used this poll to push characters up the lists that don't necessarily belong there.  Any time more than one Neimoidian makes one of these polls I have to call it suspect.

I don't see why Nute Gunray doesn't belong there.

There was also no rule that said we couldn't submit our votes to every site, that's actually what you should do.

I did on all the sites I knew that were doing it, Gunray was my #1 on all the ones I did too.

You were actually one of the people I noticed on a couple sites and assumed had a hand in getting Rune and Tey on some of the lists.  Historically the Neimoidian characters haven't been good sellers and there's a reason we haven't seen more.  For good or bad, there's probably already a good shot at Rune next year for the TPM release anyway. 

And yes, while there's no rule about going to various websites and submitting your wants, like I said, on RS or here it's diluted somewhat, but on a smaller forum where they're getting 10 or 13 total participants, it's easier to get a character into the top 10.  That can make it look like a character has more buzz than he really does.  But they'll get weeded out when only the top 20 get into the Insider poll and the wider fan base gets to vote.

Post by: efranks on September 30, 2011, 04:00 PM
I posted this on RS, but I pulled some numbers together from the poll so far.  Things that I think are interesting so I figured I post them.

With the 22 sites reported so far, I have 105 unique characters with 77 being all new and 28 being updates (for figs released from 1995-2011).  I combined the Mara Jade votes as well as all the Nikto entries, dropped the Palpatine w/ chair and just went with one ROTJ Palpatine entry.

The 10 most frequently submitted characters (Counted Admiral and Captain/Admiral Piett together):

Jocasta Nu   13
Toryn Farr   10
Cliegg Lars   9
Darth Plagueis   8
Sergeant Doallyn   8
Sim Aloo   8
Nikto   6
Yakface   6
Captain/Admiral Piett   5
Nute Gunray   5


The counts by origin:

EU   40
ROTJ   24
ANH   11
TCW   8
TESB   8
AOTC   7
ROTS   4
TPM   3

For the EU characters, their origins are:

Book   16
Game   13
Comic   6
TV   5



The EU sources:

Heir to the Empire   6
Old Republic, The   6
Knights of the Old Republic   4
Droids   2
Force Unleashed, The   2
Knights of the Old Republic II   2
Legacy   2
Marvel Star Wars   2
Shadows of the Empire   2
Caravan of Courage   1
Dark Forces   1
Ewoks   1
Holiday Special   1
Jedi Search   1
Omega Squad   1
Republic Commando   1
Revenge of the Sith   1
Sacrifice   1
Splinter of the Mind's Eye   1
Tag & Bink   1
Young Jedi Knights   1

I find it interesting that there are 6 requests from The Old Republic already, and the game isn't even out yet.  The KotOR entries are for both the game and the comic.  Zayne Carrick, for example, is a comic character, but still included in the KotOR count.  The EU Source was all based on first appearance so that's why Tag & Bink show up, that's the FA for Darth Plagueis.

Action Figure Times seemed to be taking part in the poll and even offered a prize for voting but only 2 people entered so I assume this went nowhere: http://aftimes.com/forum/buzz-central/star-wars-fans-choice-2012/ (http://aftimes.com/forum/buzz-central/star-wars-fans-choice-2012/).

15   Death Squad Commander (Vintage)
15   Joruus C'baoth
15   Tonnika Sister

Looks like my unscientific poll was pretty good - nailed 17 of the top 19 and 2 we had listed tied for 20th (DSC and Joruus) made the cut.  19/22 - not too bad! 8)

Interesting to note the people who did well in my compiled poll but did not make Hasbro's final 20:
- Ann/Tann Gella (17th in my compiled results)
- Nohgri Warrior (19th in my compiled results)
- Tonnika Sisters (tied 20th)

Not sure how many other sites out there voted, but someone must have been rooting for Pellaeon for him to jump into the top 20 the way he did...

The Gellas could be explained by Lichtgeschwindigkeit.de results. They posted them in alphabetical order but it looks like they probably submitted them correctly.
1. Captain/Admiral Gilad Pellaeon
2. Guri
3. Admiral Daala
4. Toryn Farr
5. Jan Ors
6. Joruus C'baoth
7. Emperor Roan Fel
8. Ann/Tann Gella
9. Jaxxon
10. Emperor Palpatine with Throne

But that also knocks out Palpatine. And it doesn't explain Pellaeon since they are the only site that voted for him. There has to be at least one other site.

maybe these two

- Ann/Tann Gella (17th in my compiled results)
- Nohgri Warrior (19th in my compiled results)

were removed from the list because they are very near being released?  I know the Nohgri was supposed to be a part of a comic pack - we saw the images.  And I am pretty sure the twins has been rumored for a long time too.

But that leaves me scratching my head on others - especially Kneesa.  She was rumored forever ago as coming with TVC Wicket, I am pretty sure Hasbro said for certain that she was dropped for costing.  So I would think her figure would be as good to go as say the Nogrhi - so why include her on the list?  Plus I think a lot of us Ewok nerds were just pretty much expecting her to go in the supposed Ewok exclusive set.

There may have been more I had to say here, but work interrupted my flow of thought and I dont think I can ever get it back.  today sucks, cant wait for it to be over.

It's rigged. Or "staged" is the word, like Professional Wrestling/sports entertainment.  :-X

Probably half of the ones listed are either planned, almost ready to go, or would take minimal effort. Others would never be made: Jaxxon, Joruss, Plagueis, but were allowd in the final 20 to make it look like a real fan's choice poll.

I'd take almost any unmade character over a remake. By almost, I mean "NOT JOCASTA NU" and iffy on Cleigg Lars, both deserve figures....to me any movie character deserves a figure. But would I shell out $9 for them, not likely.

Eventually, maybe, i was exagerrating with "never",  but in a line that's been going 16 years...eventually might be 2 years, might be 7. Over 10 years after episode 1's release, and we are getting Ben Quadrinaros and others. Sure, the movie was the least popular...but still...some 12 years.

I think that for the next six years as the 3D re-releases come out, that will be our best, last chance for some long requested characters from each of the six movies. The point you make about Quadrinaros really drives this home. We've been asking for him for, well, 12 years. And now he's finally coming.

I think figures like Cliegg Lars, Jocasta Nu, ROTS Nute Gunray, a new Grand Moff Tarkin, updated Captain/Admiral Piett, updated Yak Face, Sim Aloo, vintage-deco Nikto, Death Squad Trooper, the remaining Kenner Vintage Ewoks, Emperor Palpatine & his throne from ROTJ, Toryn Farr and Tzivvzt - all have a great shot of coming out in their respective 3D re-release year.

In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if all of those figures weren't already on the drawing boards for those 3D re-release lines and Hasbro really has "stacked the deck" as it were to really seem like they "responded to the fans" from this recent poll...

This was a little tricky -- do I choose my definite #1 wanted figure, or do I select a figure that is more obscure and less likely to get made without a poll like this?  It was between Nikto (my #1) or Joruus C'baoth (from the amazing Thrawn Trilogy)...

My desire for the vintage Nikto won in the end.

Post by: Jesse James on October 22, 2011, 04:30 PM
I'm really hopeful the Noghri is "on tap" and that's why he failed to make the cut.  I've wanted a Noghri since 1993, and Hasbro showing a prototype really got me geeked.  I want to see that make it to retail in one capacity or another.

The only on that list I don't care if I ever get are Jocasta Nu and Princess Kneesa, Nute Gunray (though he'd be ok, but just not big on my list), and Mara Jade (I'm happy with what I have of her).  Maybe Guri too...  Female EU characters are just meh, fanboy fantasy stuff sometimes to me.

I'm a big Tzivizizizizizizit guy, Mosep, torryn Far, and others.  Tzz and Mosep are my top 2 though I think.

There are several on here that I don't care if they ever get made or not.  In the end I voted for the grey Death Squad Commander.  Some I just assume they will be made some day.  Some I just don't care if they do get made.  I'm not to sure the DS Cmdr will ever get made.  I can't customize worth a crap and hopefully they would make a new sculpt for him.  I am hoping if he were to be made that he would wind up on a vintage cardback.  I do go for the cardbacks so that was factored into the final vote.  I don't know if whatever figure wins what card it would end up on?  I almost went for Lars, Farr, or Cliegg Lars though.

I was scratching my head with this vote.  In the end I decided to vote on the most obscure character on the list that probably will never get made without a fan's choice pull to put him through.  I voted Jaxxon - and admittedly I don't even know much about the character.

I just figured pretty much most others on that list have a decent shot at being made without having to win the poll to make it happen.

If they held a vote for which character should NEVER be made, I'd go to every computer in my office to cast a vote for Tzivvzt.

As it is, I voted for Jaxxon.

On the topic of who made the list and who seems to have been cut.  When it comes to the Gella sisters, I'm wondering if Hasbro dropped them not so much because they're already on the way (but we do know they're on Hasbro's radar) but because they know we really want both and they don't want to do a 2-pack.  Also, it was mentioned that the order from the Lichtgeschwindigkeit website may have been publicized differently than was submitted making the points harder to tally.

I do think the Noghri got dropped because he's already in the works.  It doesn't make much sense otherwise.

But unless another couple sites submitted lists that we don't know about, I have no idea how Pellaeon made it into the top 20.  At least Cane Adiss didn't make the list, and by my count he finished ahead of Pellaeon.  Adiss would also make my Never to be Made list given the opportunity.

   E...
Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: Jesse James on October 24, 2011, 02:26 PM
I don't think I'd ever dump on a figure that got made really...  Tzzvizit is really one that I'd actually like to have, but I'd take every character from the Cantina if they offered them.  Every human, every weirdo, every alien, and every piece of the Cantina itself.  I just would be really happy to get any of it.

To me, Tzzvizitizazizirzizit is so weird, he's actually one of the better Cantina choices.  They've gotten to a lot of the more strange and "in demand" aliens like Arcona, Duros, etc.  Mosep's also high on my list though too.  Beyond that I'm more into humans, which I doubt many want, but there's some there I'd like like to see like Danz Borin, Yerka Mig, and my favorite, Garrouf Lafoe...  Love the Cantina Snitch.

Plus, Cantina/JP are proven track records where Hasbro has said they aren't "kid-oriented" at all, get the shorter production run, etc.  They seem like the ideal for the polling like this ultimately.

For me, it's like Jocasta Nu...  If they make her, I'll buy her, but I have absolutely no interest in her ever being made and I'll be quite happy with the line if she doesn't get a figure.  But, I won't campaign against her either ultimately.  I just think she's a waste of space, even with lines in the movie.  There's a few like that to me...  Ultimately, I'd probably put Frozec in there too (Sorry Scott)...  Then again I'd buy Jaxxon too, even though I have no clue about him in the EU, and the design is quite silly.  I'd still buy it if they made it, but I'll not really put my weight behind getting it made though, haha.  ;D 

I figure if enough people want something to get it (legitimately) through a poll though, that's cool.  I've always got the chance to just pass on whatever it is too, if it's too crummy.  Plus let's face it, a lot of the figures will probably get done off the list. :)
Title: Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
Post by: efranks on October 24, 2011, 06:29 PM
Normally I wouldn't campaign against a character but after the discussions over on the otheR Site the last time we had the Fans' Choice Poll, and after looking him up because I had no idea who the hell he was, I'm really soured on him to the point I wouldn't buy him if they made him and I think he'd be a waste of resources and space in a future wave.

The discussion that ticked me off was basically that a guy in a jumpsuit with a fly head, a character based on a beast of burden and two giraffe necks on a stick were somehow must-haves in figure form but a green bunny in a space suit was somehow completely out of bounds and anyone that liked him was off their rocker.  Because of that, my nerdrage now knows no bounds.  >:D

A vote for Jaxxon is a vote for all that is good and fair in Star Wars fandom!  Long live the green bunny!

But that was at the otheR Site... I think we're more tolerant of peoples' likes here.

I'm all for Jaxxon and other EU stuff. I won't buy it personally, because I don't get into it, but I'm happy for those that do get something they enjoy. And I really enjoy the Cantina and Jabba's Palace figures, no matter how obsure they are. Of course, I love all the outfits that Padme wore, too, despite how some people think they might think they're boring.

Agreed - I can see merit to both Jaxxon for the folks who really love the old Marvel Star Wars comics from the 80s - and I can totally see how one of the characters, like Tzizvvt, who was given a back-story courtesy of the "What's the Story" Hyperspace contest, would/could be desired by some just as much as characters like Bane Malar, Janus Greejatus, Pax Bonkik, Grizz Frix, E-3PO, Lushros Dofine, Wol Cabasshite and last, but not least Willrow Hood.

Oh ok, now I see where it's coming from...  Like Siddy said though, that was the OtheR Site. ;)  I'm for whatever anyone honestly wants...  ICMG is touted as a "joke" to some douches, but the reality is that we wanted him.  Scott wanted him, so did I, and to me he's no joke.  Jocasta Nu isn't a joke to some, and Jaxxon isn't a joke either...  Neither's Tizvizizizizizizizit to me though...  It's all in what you want, piss on what some newbies over at another forum think. 

That's the one dumb thing that comes from Fan's Choice Polls.  The "vehement" campaigning becomes almost nausea-inducing.  Guys start insulting other people's choices, people start trying to say "this is more worthy than that!" type rhetoric...  Not much on the list was awe-inspiring, or easy for EVERYONE to jump behind to me, but some are better than others I think.  Others are more likely than some (repaints or minor retooling/upgrades)...  I have my basis for what I want or don't want to vote for ultimately.

I wanted the RFT...  A LONG time, I didn't get as much support for that and got chastised by some because what we had was "good enough".  If people want it they want it, so I'm happy for people to get the stuff they want since I've gotten a bit of what I want (especially in the last 6 years or so). 

I get now where the anger comes from E.  All I can say is "consider the source" there.   :-\

according to my skim of Wookieepedia, she's pretty much like Nancy & Sluggo in that she has basically one outfit in her wardrobe and it's been done twice already in the line.  There's slight differences, but I guess I was expecting some Jedi robes.

Definitely displeased with the results.  I know Mara has her fans.  But we've already had two Mara Jade figures at least.  Are we going to see a significant improvement on the last one which was in a comic 2-pack?  Granted, the upcoming Shae Viszla figure looks interesting, and maybe Hasbro has turned a corner on female characters. 

But I had really been hoping first and foremost for an all-new character with the fan's choice poll.  That makes Mara a buzzkill.

Did anyone hear if they were going to release the full results of the poll?

They're busy rigging the full results, too. It will be loaded characters they were already going to make within the next year so they can say "see, we listen to the fans!"

I can see that happeng, Mara was a metter of time, what a waste I was hoping for Guri or Dash. If some new regime did come in I can see them tossing the fan choice poll as they did Q&A's.

The full results will be in a future SW Insider issue. Probably the next one coming out in May.

They said SW Insider was going to have the full list. They haven't yet. I don't know if they decided not to or if they are waiting until they reveal Mara or something.
