Ah!  Thanks for the clarification.

If Matt Coleman was still around, we could have a 0.5" pole too...  #theclassicsnevergetold

Another thought regarding this year's polls.  The Tournament of Champions is cool, but given the way a lot of the site leans we tend to see the ToC somewhat skewed.  So how about this?

Have 3 x separate Tournaments of Champions:
-Prequel Trilogy ToC
-Original Trilogy ToC
-Clone Wars / Rebels / Legends ToC

I think that might make things a little more interesting in terms of the results that get presented.

Re: Attack of the Clones Wishlist -

I will probably buy more AotC figures if they make them (unmade Padmes, Cliegg, Senators), but if Hasbro announced they were never making another figure from AotC again, I'd probably really only miss Cliegg. 

Since we got Owen and Beru and Padme from the Moisture Farm scenes, not having Cleigg and his hoverchair is lame.  I still can't believe they haven't made him yet.  :-\

Not a ton from this that I want...  Cliegg would be among mine as well at this point, but really the refugee Ani/Padme were two of my big wants, and there hasn't been a lot else.

The separatists are dull, they've knocked out damn near every Jedi human I can think of now...  That one guy that tosses a saber to Kenobi/Ani is still noticeably absent I guess.  They've even redone all the Alien Jedi at this point, thankfully, to extraordinary renditions.

I can't think of a droid I'd want either...  Like TPM, AOTC is pretty much off my radar completely at this point.

Cliegg Lars is definitely one of the standouts.  In terms of the importance of the character to the plot and the sheer amount of dialogue he has, Cliegg is a solid candidate for a figure.

Aside from that?  I think more arena Jedi would be reasonable choices.  And I'd personally like to see some more characters from the Outlander nightclub.  But I think AOTC is pretty low on the priority list for Hasbro these days.

The separatists are dull, they've knocked out damn near every Jedi human I can think of now...  That one guy that tosses a saber to Kenobi/Ani is still noticeably absent I guess. 

Actually, the two Jedi who toss the lightsabers in the Arena battle have been done.  Nicannas Tassu was done in the Target exclusive Arena 2-packs.  And Sephjet Josall was done in the TRU exclusive Arena multipacks.

That's right, forgot the last guy was in those TRU sets.  ::)

Just looked over my 2013 list for TESB.  It looks like I finally have some open slots for some new characters!

Watched the REBELS episode "Rise of the old masters".  It was interesting to finally see the Inquisitor at work.  And not so surprising that he would use a Jedi Master as bait.  But I definitely appreciated when the Inquisitor was able to determine from Kanan's fighting style that he was a student of Depa Billaba... which gets to my point in this thread!  Seeing how Master Billaba factors into Kanan's story, I think she's a prime candidate for the Episode I figure poll.  So if you haven't voted for EPISODE I yet, vote for Kanan Jarrus's Jedi Master - Depa Billaba!!!

Decided to return the Tonnika Sisters to my ANH wishlist this year...

In the end, it's probably a wasted vote but part of me would really like to know if Disney LFL will be as stubborn about them as George LFL was.
