I understand the movie push and everything - and honestly, I'm more interested in stuff from the movies anyways - but 19 figures for the whole year (and I don't think even half of those are new, are they?) is really a slow trickle.
Yeah, I agree. For awhile it sounded like CW was Hasbro's bread and butter and Vintage was on the backburner because the former is targeted at kids, where as the latter is directed towards the older, collector types (us). Maybe they're thinking that now that these kids are hooked on CW, the parents will take them to TPM and convert them? Maybe, I don't know. But CW is going to airing next year as well and to not having much fresh product out there is puzzling. Just with this last arc on CW, there's a lot of interesting things there, plus with Maul returning (come on, we've gotta have a few Mauls, especially the token shirtless-one) there's a lot of material to choose from. I don't collect CW (just the bounty hunters), but I find it odd.
