For the 80th time...the final AOTC Wave is supposed to contain a Concept Rebel Trooper
Yes, yes, yes. How soon folks forget these things...
And, for the proof: The Hasbro Stands sticker sheet lists the following:
- Boba Fett - McQuarrie Concept
- Chewbacca - McQuarrie Concept
- C-3PO - McQuarrie Concept
- Darth Vader - McQuarrie Concept
- Han Solo- McQuarrie Concept
- Luke Starkiller - McQuarrie Concept (aka Hero Starkiller)
- Luke Skywalker - McQuarrie Concept
- Obi-Wan Kenobi - McQuarrie Concept
- R2-D2 - McQuarrie Concept
- Rebel Trooper - McQuarrie Concept
- Snowtrooper - McQuarrie Concept
- Stormtrooper - McQuarrie Concept
- Yoda - McQuarrie Concept
That's the 13 figures.
AND, please note that the sticker sheet also lists General McQuarrie without mentioning him as part of the concept line.
I'm still not sure why Hasbro is still being coy about that AotC Wave when so many of the figures (Voolif Mon, Concept Rebel, Droideka w/Shield) have been leaked or hinted at... hopefully the wave is shown at SDCC so this can be settled once and for all.
That's interesting.....
I know I posted this somewhere on these boards already but.....
My son, brother and I went and spoke to the Hasbro guys in the booth after the QandA
after the panel at C4. They(was it Darrel?) told us that basically, the concept grievous
IS a part of the 'concept line' it will even include the same concept packaging too but will have McQuarrie's printed name and signature removed from the packaging. Oh and they told us that the hoth trooper with McQ's face is NOT part of the line(since it's not a concept)-instead it's meant as a tribute.
We started the conversation off with..something to the effect of '12 figures' and Hasbro (there was 3 of them) countered with ' when did we say there was 12?? ' and had a big laugh about it. After continued discussion they gave the answers above later.
