Legacy Wave 6 - The Empire Strikes Back
« on: April 6, 2008, 10:08 AM »
SO far they have confirmed an Empire Wave for 2009 and it will contain the greatest figure in the history of the line:



So, here's my hope for the rest:

Willrow Hood
Bespin Guard (Running ethnic change)
Ugnaught 2-pack Resculpt
Yoda (VOTC version with rocks, pots, and Luke's Gear)
Zuckuss Resculpt
Han Solo Bespin Jacket
Luke Skywalker (Medical Frigate)
Princess Leia (Medical Frigate)

1. Willrow Hood
2. Bespin Han
3. Medical Frigate Luke
4. Zuckuss
5. Ugnaught
6. Torryn Farr

I like Scott's list and it seems like a probable list (Zuckuss is the last of the BHs to be more articulated, Ugnaughts and Bespin Guards are army builders), but I think it's time for Torryn Farr to get made as well!

I really hope we get an SA Zuckuss, an SA Hoth Leia, and an SA Hoth Rebel Soldier in this wave, those three are just so insanely overdue it's sad.  :'(

I'd also like to see Wiorkettle. Two obscure Bespin characters in one wave would be just about the coolest thing ever (right there under an entire wave of obscure cantina characters)!

Yeah I agree with that completely. Scott's list is excellent with the addition of Torryn Farr.

I'd buy each one of them.

Willrow Hood

Zuckuss Resculpt
Han Solo Bespin Jacket
Luke Skywalker (Medical Frigate)
Princess Leia (Medical Frigate)

Scott's list looks great to me as well.  Torryn Farr would be a nice addition too.  My most wanted (resculpted) figure at this point is a SA Bespin Han Solo, so I hope we'll get one of those next year.  I was kind of hoping it would come in another wave of the VOTC, but it doesn't sound like we'll be seeing those again anytime soon.  Willrow - of course - is a given, and its so cool that he's getting made.  I've been holding out picking up the POTF2 Zuckuss, figuring a resculpt has to be on the way before too long.  Same goes for the Ugnaughts.  It would be nice to see the VOTC Yoda out there again, and the accessories Scott has there would make that a spiffy basic figure.  Luke and Leia have been requested for a long time, and gives Hasbro another way to get the main players out there - which as we see with the ROTJ Deleted Scene wave, they're looking for new avenues all the time.

Hmmm.  I'd go with the following for a TESB wave:

-Willrow Hood
-Captain Needa (he's gotten a Q&A mention IIRC)
-Hoth Rebel Trooper
-Torryn Farr
-Han Solo - Mynock Hunt
-Leia - Mynock Hunt
-Zuckuss
-Snowtrooper Officer (from AT-AT bridge)

I'd go with...

-Wilrow Hood
-Hoth Rebel Footsoldier/Trooper
-Ultimate Bespin Han Solo
-Jeremy Bulloch as Imperial Officer
-Zuckuss
-Human Ugnaught/hunchback
-Hoth Rebel Technician
-Snowspeeder Luke Skywalker

At least that is what I'd dig seeing.  That'd wrap up a lot of my most wanted ESB figures for certain...  Not all, but a lot of them.

I forgot about that. I'm pretty sure he was confirmed in said Q&A mention...

I forgot about him, too. He's the last of the Imp Officers to be done from ESB (unless you don't count Piett who doesn't look like Piett).
