Hey Hasbro,
Long time, no chat. It's me, your old pal Jeff here. I was looking at that new Dr. Aphra 3-pack coming to SDCC and it got me thinking how GREAT it would be if you could launch a whole line of these again (like you had at Target in 2011 (https://www.jedidefender.com/yabbse/index.php/topic,21290.0.html)).
It'd be a really nice way to quickly fill in some pretty big holes in our 3.75" SA figure collections. Set the price at the $40-45 range at Target and be sure to include three ALL-NEW, 3.75" SA figures - NO straight repacks. Imagine the possibilities...
(*a note before we begin - I left out anyone that I'd like to see on a TVC card - so no Sim Aloo, etc)
TPM:
- um, you know what, maybe we just skip this movie?
AOTC:
- yeah... let's skip this one too.
ROTS:
- *sigh* - pass. (I tried, prequel folks. I really did.)
ANH:
- Modern SA fig of the classic Kenner sculpt/deco for Walrus Man, Hammerhead, Greedo
- Classic Leia, Gray Death Squad Dude, Ceremonial Han (with accurate shirt/sculpt this time)

TLJ:
- Crait Luke, Crait Leia, General Ematt
- Holdo, Connix, Captain Poe
- SA Elite Praetorian Guard with Helmet #2 and #3, Shirtless Kylo (you know you want it)
Rogue One:
- Baze, Chirrut, Shoretrooper Squad Leader
- K-2SO, Bohdi, Krennic
- Farmer Galen, Lyra Erso, 'lil Jyn Erso
SOLO:
- Kessel Qi'Ra, Kessel Beckett (ROTJ skiff costume), Savareen Dryden Vos
- Vandor Han, Kessel Lando, L3-37
- Vandor Beckett, Vandor Val, Vandor Rio
- Mimban Han, Mimban Beckett, Mimban Val
-
Can't argue with these proposals, Jeff.
And it's hard to come up with a 3-pack that we wouldn't want to see on TVC card (the ESB one especially).
I've always been a Podracer fan, so this could be a way to do new figures from there... or at least Elan Mak. I've always dug him.
And maybe a Gahan, Gore, and Fletch 3-pack? ;)

Shirtless Anakin and Shirtless Kylo could hang out and mock shirtless Luke... all SA too. 🤷♂️
-
AOTC:
- Dooku, Poggle the Lesser, Nute Gunray
Yeah, I'm not paying $40-45 for another SA Dooku and SA figures of these two clowns. I'll stick with the versions I have, thanks. :P

Don't forget to invite Malakili, Shirtless Maul (http://www.rebelscum.com/TACevoSithLegacy.asp) and Shirtless Savage Opress (http://www.rebelscum.com/CW03_Savage_Opress.asp) to that party! So many shirtless action figures!
-
Ok yeah Malakili I guess is the guy who’s gonna take the most crap from those others. Dad bods need better representation in Star Wars action figures.
-
I think the price point is really going to matter on super articulated 3-packs with redone characters.
I'm okay paying $40-45 for all or mostly new characters, but don't have a strong interest in seeing them redo Hoth Leia, etc. in a $45 three pack SA format.
