I thought there were way more than just like 20 Vintage figures. Only 6-8 more would not even scratch the surface.

Question for Hasbro..."The current Star Wars line is great, and you are doing a great job at keeping prominent characters such as Vader, Chewie, R2, Yoda and Clones on the pegs in good numbers.  But why are you so reluctant to have any basic Stormtroopers (not Sandtroopers) in the stores?"

Hasbro,

Do you ever consider customizers when you produce a figure, and what are the chances of you producing an action figure for customizers? Mabey a Create your own Trooper or Jedi,  figure kit, something similar to your build your own lightsaber kit .

Why are there not VOTC-style Stormtroopers packed in every single wave of figures?  They are the single most desired army-building figure, and WILL NOT pegwarm for any length of time, ever.  This seems like it could be a consistent money-maker for Hasbro, despite the extra cost of articulation, so why is it not taken advantage of?

Hasbro - After what Attakus has offered, tons of fans are drooling at the possiblity of something along the lines of their Death Star/Falcon setup -



That being said, are you aware of what customizers are making?













Now... will you ever consider finally making something like one of the above pics?  You seem to work hard on making figures realistic but have not done so at all for playsets, or for many vehicles.

Or, at the very least some sort of nice accessory set like this?

What is Hasbro planning on doing to make purchasing their product more fan/collector friendly?

Hasbro---After 10 years, you finally re-made R5-D4.  Was it really that hard?

1.  What is the likelyhood of getting army builders with packed in changeable heads so that it can really be 2, 3 or even 4 different figures on the shelf.  This would apply mostly to Rebels or pilots whose faces are visible even when their removable helmet is on.

2.  Are we going to ever get a new Death Squad Commander / Death Star Trooper that is super articulated?  He would not need an accessory so one could assume the uber-expensive and difficult ball-joint elbow has a better than 10% chance of making it.

P.S.  Please stop with the canned answers, just give me a yes or no, so I can decide whether to stop collecting and buying stuff for my kids and my nephew.j

ALSO...Do you guys think Follow Up Questions would be a good idea?  There are about 20 questions that beg for follow ups so far. Mostly because of the flawed or incomplete logic Hasbro has used in it answers.
