Defender Wishlists 2022: The Sequel Trilogy

[P-Siddy]

After a 10-year hiatus and the return of The Vintage Collection, we're bringing back the Defender Wishlists!   
What are your 20 most wanted figures you'd like to see in The Vintage Collection from The Sequel Trilogy?

The rules are simple: post your wishlist for the 20 3-3/4" figures or send them to me.  At the end of the month, I’ll tally up the votes and we’ll move on to the next theme.

Most importantly, have fun!

Thanks for organizing Steve.   

This one is going to be tough to prioritize as there are so many unmade figures and costumes.   The previous wish lists were kind of scraping the bottom of the barrel as we've had a lot of figures from the OT and PT, but the ST probably could easily have a top 50 without getting too obscure.  Heck, the Knights of Ren are six figures all by themselves.

[P-Siddy]

Since we haven't gotten many from these movies, I'm going with mostly mains.

01. Han Solo (Eravana) (The Force Awakens)
02. General Leia Organa (The Force Awakens)
03. General Armitage Hux (The Force Awakens)
04. Maz Kanata (The Force Awakens)
05. Leia Organa (Battle of Crait) (The Last Jedi)
06. Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo (The Last Jedi)
07. Poe Dameron (Pasaana Adventure) (The Rise of Skywalker)
08. Finn (Pasaana Adventure) (The Rise of Skywalker)
09. Emperor Palpatine (Zombie) (The Rise of Skywalker)
10. Emperor Palpatine (Post-dyad restoration) (The Rise of Skywalker)
11. General Leia Organa (The Rise of Skywalker)
12. Ben Solo (Exegol Duel) (The Rise of Skywalker)
13. Allegiant General Edric Pryde (The Rise of Skywalker)
14. Lando Calrissian (The Rise of Skywalker)
15. Jannah (The Rise of Skywalker)
16. Cardo (Knight of Ren)
17. Kuruk (Knight of Ren)
18. Trudgen (Knight of Ren)
19. Ushar (Knight of Ren)
20. Vicrul (Knight of Ren)

Yeah, there are so many mains that haven't been done from these movies, so that was essentially my priority.  I had to change my list because I forgot about Maz... and I ended up skipping all of the Knights of Ren since I wouldn't be able to include them all.

It really is difficult to narrow this down since Hasbro has given the sequel trilogy the short end of the stick.  But in no particular order:

THE FORCE AWAKENS
-Han Solo - Smuggler / Eravana - TFA
-General Leia Organa - TFA
-Lor San Tekka - TFA
-FN-2187 - TFA
-ME-8D9 - TFA
-Maz Kanata - TFA

THE LAST JEDI
-Admiral Ackbar - TLJ
-Tallie Lintra - TLJ
-Rey (Supremacy Duel) - TLJ
-Vice Admiral Holdo - TLJ
-Resistance Trooper (Battle of Crait) - TLJ
-General Hux - TLJ

THE RISE OF SKYWALKER
-Poe Dameron (Pasaana) - TROS
-Finn (Pasaana) - TROS
-C-3PO with Babu Frik & Sith Dagger - TROS
-Lieutenant Connix - TROS
-Lando Calrissian - TROS
-Supreme Leader Kylo Ren - TROS
-Ben Solo - TROS
-Palpatine (Rejuvenated) - TROS

It really is difficult to narrow this down

But who would make your Top 20?

Ugh


Looks like I’m going to be doing some editing

[Mister Skeezler]

I like certain aspects of the ST, and then others just make no sense. I feel like Rise of Skywalker was a slapdash effort, which only gave us the feels through fan service. I was fine with the Emperor returning, but I hated that they had no real plan, so he was just kind of back, with no prior teasing. Unlike the OT, where I need Han with and without gloves, shirt tucked in, untucked, etc., I'm just kind of looking for TVC versions of the main characters in their general main outfits from the movies to start. Anyways, here's what I'd like to see from the ST for figures...

1 Rey - Last Jedi throne room duel
2 Kylo - Last Jedi throne room duel
3 First Order Snowtrooper
4 First Order Flametrooper
5 First Order Stormtrooper - redone with better articulation
6 Finn - The Last Jedi outfit
7 Finn - Rise of Skywalker main outfit
8 Poe - The Last Jedi outfit
9 Poe - Rise of Skywalker outfit
10 Kylo Ren - Supreme Leader
11 Luke Skywalker - The Last Jedi final battle (but make the figure not suck this time)
12 Chewbacca
13 Lando Calrissian (final battle)
14 Han Solo - The Force Awakens main outfit
15 Leia Organa - The Force Awakens
16 Leia Organa - The Last Jedi
17 General Hux
18 Knights of Ren multipack

TROS Aftab Ackbar

TROS Clone/Rotting Palpatine
TROS Jannah
TROS Poe Dameron (Adventure Outfit)

There's so much to do in the sequel trilogy, particularly with TROS that this list works perfectly for me.

Put me down as a doubling of Jeff's picks.

[Mister Skeezler]

Yeah I agree there's so much to do that at this point I'd just kind of take anyone. Even TFA and TLJ Rey could use a photoreal head.

[Jedi Idej]

Argh! So many to choose from. Upgrade the figures with 5 poa or go with never-been-done with the hope of revisitng the updates at a later time?

[Ryan]

I've struggled with this list. I have only seen the movies a few times each, and don't have a huge interest in figures from the trilogy outside of a few, but there is also so much that is still to be made. I am going to go with a combination of figures mostly from the other lists in this thread, a few cool aliens/droids:

• Knight of Ren Cardo
• Knight of Ren Kuruk
• Knight of Ren Trudgen
• Knight of Ren Ushar
• Knight of Ren Vicrul
• TFA - Han Solo (main outfit)
• TFA - Lor San Tekka
• TFA - HURID-327
• TFA - Maz Katana
• TFA - Unkar Plutt
• TFA - Grummgar
• TLJ - Ahch-To Caretaker
• TROS/TLJ - Kylo Ren - Supreme Leader (w/ swappable heads)
• TROS - Rey (main outfit)
• TROS - Finn (main outfit)
• TROS - Ben Solo
• TROS - Palpatine (Rejuvenated)
• TROS - Clone/Rotting Palpatine
• TROS - Wedge Antillies (final battle)
• TROS - Lando Calrissian (final battle)

[P-Siddy]

Just a few days left for this one.  Get your lists in!

Then on to Anthology movies!
