I don't see Jocasta Nu either.  There is a female there with the opened sleeves, but I'm not sure who it is (I figured Padme, but I don't think she had an outfit like that).

how come every now and then when I go to Amazon.com I see figures from the Starkiller wave for sale for $12.99 - except for Starkiller!  I have never seen him that low on Amazon.  Has anyone ever seen him at this price?

I saw them last week at the low price, too.  The EU figures just go out of stock quickly.

Is this the April 1st press release?

Fighter pods are cute for kids, but not for the price they offer.  It seems at toy fair that they were pushing the whole Fighter Pods line, so I guess it's too early for them to bail on the concept, I guess.  Maybe Hasbro is listening to the collectors and scaling back, offering a few choice selection of figures for the future?  Say 30-36 figures/year compared to the years where it was overwhelming.  Who knows.  Hopefully, we'll get some answers.

I can't wait to see the new stuff.  Just a few more days to wait!

It'll be good to know who's doing it... maybe we could get a list of questions to that person to present to Hasbro.  I know I've got one (which might be answered during the presentation) that determines whether I buy product now or wait.

Highlander is an interesting choice.  I bet we see a remake of that flick a few years down the road.

That would be interesting to see done though it would be tough to have anyone but Queen do the soundtrack (and Clancy Brown as Kurgan).

Have them build a Walmart in NYC.

That's a WHOLE other discussion.

Should we start a new thread??  I did see most of the ones I wanted at a Walmart near my parents, but I'm going to hold off until I hear they are officially cancelled.  I do hope someone asks a Hasbro rep (whether they are going to put those TPM ones on Vinty cards) if they are going to SDCC.  I'd appreciate it.

I ordered Evazan, Nikto, Tarkin and Kithaba (not sure which version I'll get, but hope it's red bandana) off of Amazon. 

With the 3 orders, I got Evazan alone and he came in a small cardboard folded box and he was quite protected.  Tarkin, Wedge and Kithaba came in a big box with a bit of packing and there was some creasing on Tarkin.  Kithaba was brown headband variant, so I might send him back.  Nikto was sent separately in a bubble mailer with squished bubble. 3 orders, 3 different results.  I'm an opener so it doesn't matter too much to me, but I do like to have nice cards since I keep them.

You know, if they do cancel these on the vinty cards, people are gonna be pissed that they will be missing some ##s in their TVCs... kind of like Salacious Crumb and the Mouse Droid from last year's exclusives.

With my luck and how NYC sucks at getting anything new (and the lack of places to find it), I ordered Evazan, Nikto, Tarkin and Kithaba (not sure which version I'll get, but hope it's red bandana) off of Amazon for $12.99.  They had the EU stuff up there (Malgus, Vizla, Starkiller, Nom Anor etc.) for the same price when I ordered, but now looks like they've sold out of those figures for that price.  I'd say keep checking back.

I have a feeling that, if at all possible, Hasbro has axed those on vinty cards... 

I'll be upset if that's the case since I avoided those so I could get them on the vinty cards since that was my preferred method of getting them.   :-\  But I totally get that.  I'm tired of finding all 12 TPM figures pegwarming.

I'd like to know if Hasbro is going to still rerelease some of those WM exclusive TPM figures on Vintage cards since all that is warming the Vintage pegs are those dreaded TPM figures.
