I really think some sites are asking certain questions to be facetious, or perhaps thinking that with enough suggestion they can influence some Hasbro decisions. I've gotten the impression after so many Q and A's that Hasbro really just decides what they want to do, and won't take good ideas from us the collector community. So at this point, most questions have probably already been asked and are just being repeated until Hasbro gets it through their skulls that "we" want playsets, build-a-figures, etc. Actually, one BAF idea I thought would work is an astromech one. Simply utilize the superior astromech torso and legs, and a good R2 head, R5-D4 head, and an R4 head, and paint up a bunch of variations that can be disassembled and placed in waves. Imagine the trading boards with all of the extra pieces!
On a side note, I'm so intrigued by their response to the 4-LOM question. I can't wait to get a new version because the only really good thing about the POTF2 version is the rusty paintjob.
