Ideas for Future Evolutions Sets?
« on: September 30, 2005, 10:48 AM »
Just wishful thinking... I know the Padme and Obi Wan Evolutions are on a lot of Wish Lists, but how about some others?  Forgive me if this has already been brought up, I don't recall seeing it anywhere...

So, here's a few ideas that I think would be interesting...


Luke Skywalker

- ANH Stormtrooper gear
- ESB Snowspeeder gear
- ROTJ Endor gear


Han Solo

- ANH Stormtrooper gear
- ESB Hoth gear
- ROTJ Endor gear


Clone Trooper Version 3

- AOTC Green Clone
- ROTS BARC Trooper
- ROTJ Scout Trooper


Clone Trooper Version 4

- AOTC Red Clone
- ROTS Mygeeto Clone
- ESB Snowtrooper


Mandalorians

- KOTOR Mandalorian
- AOTC Jango Fett
- ESB Boba Fett


Thoughts?  Who would shell out $20.00 for all new, well done versions of these?

 :P

I love all the clone ideas, except for God's sake, I never want to see that red clone captain released again.  I dig the rest of that Mygeeto/Snowie pack though.  The EII clone can just be plain white, or an embryo in a jar, or a clone kid too.

Rebel Soldiers:

Rebel Fleet Trooper
Hoth Trooper
Endor Trooper

All SA with different head sculpts.  And removable helmets/goggles.
This is what happens when you invade Wakanda

Mygeeto SnowTroopers:
SA Commander Bacara w/ blaster
SA Mygeeto SnowTrooper w/ blaster
SA ESB SnowTrooper w/ blaster and E-Web

Obi-Wan Kenobi:
SA E2 Obi-Wan w/ lightsaber, hilt, cloth goods robe, handcuffs, chain, and zam's assasin droid
Obi-Wan Pilot repack
SA E4 Obi-Wan w/ lightsaber, hilt, cloth goods robe, Vader's hilt, and Ponda Baba's arm

I really want a Padme Evolutions set, too, so much I want two of 'em:

Padme Set A:

TPM Handmaiden Padme - because duh.  I'm shocked that Hasbro hasn't done this yet.  Well, no, I'm not.

AOTC SA Arena Padme - To make up for that Saga thing.

ROTS Senator Padme - As she was at the birth of the Empire.

Set B:

TPM Pre Senate Dress
AOTC Back To Naboo Gold Headcrest Thing
ROTS Revenge of the Buns

Padme and Kenobi definately.  I would not mind more clonetroopers either.  I would not mind Luke and Han or even Leia.  I guess it would depend upon which outfits they made and how they turn out.

Han Solo

I would be all over that.  I'd like to get ahold of as many evolutions packs with OT stuff, either army builders OR main characters.  I just don't like the ratio I am getting of the PT stuff at this rate.  I am getting stuck with 2 PT figs for every Tatooine Stormtrooper.  By the time it is all over and I have both versions of the Tatooine Stormie, I'll be over run with Clones....

I like to think I've been helping you a little with that terrible dilema Paul.

Oh no, I appreciate all your efforts, I'm just afraid some day you'll get sick of EPII clones and then I'll be drowning in them.


If they put the quality and articulation and accessories into Single Carded figs like they do EVO's I'd love it...

REBEL SOLDIERS:  (all SA of Course, and I define SA as ball joint Shoulders, ball joint elbows, ball joint knees, wrist and hip and ankle (lower leg) articulation).

Rebel Fleet Trooper
Hoth Rebel
Endor Rebel

But here is my take on it....make all 3 different head sculpts, but make the "pegs" that the heads fit on ALL THE SAME SIZE.  Removable headgear for each soldier, and include a "4th" head.  That way if you bought 4 packs, you'd have 4 different heads on all 3 body types.  Then for the variation, make the Hoth Rebel an  Echo Base Trooper, the RFT an Honor Guard and the Endor Rebel one of the different uniforms.

I'd max a credit card out on that pack.....then sell a kidney for the Stormtrooper pack that LandotheScoundrel mentioned...

There are two things that are keeping that from happening;  1) they come in white pretty soon, if they were all yellow I'd probably stop sooner and 2) the Pilot helmet - makes it a specific figure that you can't get an SA version of any other way, and the pilot only came in yellow, so it makes sense.

So, I'm keeping pilot helmets on all the yellow ones (for the most part) and will keep regular clone helmets on the white ones.

Yeah, Jesse and I were talking about something similar in the other Evolutions thread a while back...

I'd also like a Rebel Trooper set... 

-Tantive IV, Hoth, and Endor...  The army builder sets would have me shelling out the cash like there's no tomorrow.  *sigh*

As long as they have alternate heads...  one thing I can't stand is having my army builders all have the same heads!  I mean it's fine for Imp Troopers with Helmets, but for guys like the hoth dude or endor dude it would suck to have a bunch of the same guy - they aren't clones after all!

Now, the way to really do it up right would be to pack in 3 alternate head sculpts and then make ALL six of the heads (3 on the troopers and the 3 extras) interchangable!

Then, you could buy 6 of Jesse's proposed Rebel Trooper sets and have six "unique" troopers for each movie (tantive,hoth,endor) without having to chase down a bunch of corps figures for customs/head-swaps!

Jeff


Ever since they did that dagobah Luke, I've been wanting them to try an army builder with alternate heads like that.  If they could find a way to pull that off, I'd be right there with you buying as many of those packs as I could!   ;)
