Found the new CW Plo Koon at of all places, a Walgreens.  Never mind the fact that it was $12.99.  As a result I passed.

Princess Kneesa & Chukha-Trok as a 2-pack?  I'm thinking online exclusive.  That would allow for a smaller run, and I can't see Target or WalMart going for something like that.  Methinks Adam Pawlus might be the person to inquire with about this....

I think it's pretty clear about the uniform:  the Rebellion is on a tight budget.   They can't be affording different climate uniforms for EVERYBODY!  ::)

I think we may have found the next ICMG!  That guy is just SCREAMING for an obscure action figure.

9 minutes of "The Lost Rebels"?!?!?  I really hope the General Madine scene is in there where he's going CRAZY!

Very glad to hear the Hoth Luke news.  And I was especially pleased to see Hasbro specifically cite the fact that this Hoth Luke would be articulated so that he could be posed on the upcoming tauntaun.  I'm also hoping to see some commentary from Hasbro about the Han Solo in the SEARCH FOR LUKE SKYWALKER battle pack along the same lines.  Will that new Han be tauntaun ready?

CGI Yoda does look a lot more "Like Yoda" than the Episode I puppet.  But in the scene with Obi-Wan there are some weird things going on with the lighting and the depth of field.

Interesting response:

There are still plenty of large vehicles to tackle, in both the animation as well as the 6 movies. While the Republic Attack Shuttle is smaller (and less expensive) than the previous vehicles, the tremendous 2-in-1 play features are geared to kids. We are not ready to reveal information about a big vehicle for 2012 but there are some great candidates from Episode I.

That was a thinly veiled hint if I ever saw one.  It looks like Episode I may very well be getting a large vehicle.  Just to run through the possibilities there:

RADIANT VII



NABOO ROYAL STARSHIP



MTT



SITH INFILTRATOR



Just through a process of elimination, I think we can cross the Radiant VII off the list.  It may be the first starship shown in the movie, but it's screen time is limited.  As for the others?  It's great fodder for discussion.

Please.  She got reduction surgery.  Why not just spit in God's face while you're at it?

Hey Hasbro! / Re: Theron Nett AKA Red 10!

Interesting concept.  In the interest of making it a little bit marketable, here's a lineup that might actually sell okay.  It's 6 x 2-packs of OT Rebel pilots with a droid.  In the case of the droid, I'd like to try thinking a little outside the box, because 6 pilots with 6 astromechs doesn't offer a ton of variety.

Luke Skywalker & R2-D2 - Battle of Yavin
Theron Nett & R2-X2 - Battle of Yavin
Wedge Antilles (snowspeeder gear) & M-3PO - Battle of Hoth
Han Solo (bespin outfit) & WED-15 droid - Battle of Hoth
Keir Santage (Red 7) & R2 unit - Battle of Endor
Horton Salm (Gray Leader) & R2 unit - Battle of Endor

The only thing on Bastila that looks a little off is her hairline.  Other than that I think the figure looks pretty good.

I'm a big fan of KOTOR, and I'd love to see more figures from the game.  But KOTOR came out in 2003 and KOTOR II in 2004.  The games have a significant following, but at this point in time the figures would not be topical.  That is, unless LucasArts decided to put out KOTOR III.
