Legacy Wave 12 - The Empire Strikes Back
« on: November 9, 2008, 11:15 AM »
SO far they have confirmed a 2nd 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)
Zuckuss Resculpt
Hoth Soldier (Either Echo Base or the Battle of Hoth, whichever doesn't show up in Wave 6)
Luke Skywalker (Hoth)
Princess Leia (Hoth)
BAD: E-3PO

I'd be pretty happy with the "generously proportioned" ICMG and the following:

Zuckuss (new, SA)
Princess Leia Organa - Hoth (new, SA)
Luke Skywalker - Hoth (new, SA)
Wiorkettle
Treva Horme

I would take Luke or Wedge as a snowspeeder pilot.

Definitely Wedge as snowspeeder pilot, and I second the nod for Echo base troopers if we get the Hoth rebel troopers in the first wave.

I'm really glad that we're seeing some extra OT goodness next year with a second ESB wave.  Since we know that Bespin Han isn't coming until 2010 at the soonest, this is what my list would look like (pretty much the same as everyone else):

Luke Skywalker (Hoth)
Princess Leia Organa (Hoth)
Zuckuss
Willrow Hood
Bespin Guard (running change)
Wedge Antilles (Snowspeeder Pilot)
BAD: E-3PO

I also like the idea of the "other" Hoth Rebel Soldier.  The rebel troops could definitely use some bolstering, and hopefully we'll see that next year (and beyond).

First ESB wave:



Second ESB wave:



Give us a couple variations like they did with the Endor troops, and I'll swoon.

Now this could be used for a 'caption this' contest.

Looks like a new Snowpeeder Pilot Luke has been confirmed for this second ESB wave...

Probably a simple head swap with the Evo Snowspeeder Pilot bodies. Hopefully he'll include a harpoon gun and proper lightsaber(s).

The grappling hook would be such a cool addition to Snowspeeder Luke.  IIRC, there was a grappling hook in one of the vintage accessory packs that came out around TESB.
