In no particular order, other than OT before PT and no room left for any EU.  If I were to rally behind some PT figures, how about showing the love for the Lars clan...  they are my #1-3 of my PT votes.

#01 Yarna D'al Gargan
#02 Klaatu Wooof (Vintage Jabba's Palace)
#03 Sim Aloo
#04 Nikto (Vintage Resculpt)
#05 Luke Skywalker (Snowspeeder Resculpt)
#06 Torryn Farr
#07 Captain Needa
#08 Owen Lars (Resculpt)
#09 Tonnika Sisters
#10 Bom Vimdin
#11 Wioslea
#12 Han Solo (Stormtrooper Repaint)
#13 WED15-1662
#14 Imperial Officer (Black Tunic Repaint)
#15 Wicket (Resculpt)
#16 Ewok Warrior Wompus
#17 Hoth Soldier (Super Articulated Resculpt)
#18 Hoth Rebel Soldier (Echo Base)
#19 Zuckuss (Resculpt)
#20 Cliegg Lars
#21 Owen Lars
#22 Beru Whitesun
#23 General Grievous (SA)
#24 Emperor Palpatine (Senate Duel)
#25 Zam Wessel (Resculpt)

Wow!   9/10 and I'm not all that excited about any of them.   Would be nice to get really good SA Grievous, Senate Dual Palp, and Office Dual Palp.

33
1.  Cin Drallig

Seems like a no brainer.  Make a Cin to honor Nic.  Then Hasbro can reissue the holo Cin a year later in yet another Greatest Hits wave when they don't have enough figures ready to ship like they've done the past couple of years.

34
1   SA General Grievous (resculpt correct height, soft goods, 4 lightsabers, interchangable arms w/2 cut-off ones)
2   Padme Amidala (Buns Hairdo)
3   Queen Organa
4   Emperor Palpatine (Senate Duel Brown Robes)
5   SA Emperor Palpatine (Office Duel Red Robes)
6   Cin Dralig - non holo
7   Merumeru - Wookiee Captain
8   FX-6
9   2-1B
10 Padme Funeral Procession

35
Wow... 8/10!!  ;D ... though really, other than the Lars family, the others I wouldn't be that excited about and would probably only buy SA resculpts of Obi, Zam & Barriss Offee.... perhaps Dorme & the Padme, but I guess I'm getting PT'd out.  Bring on OT figures!!!

36
01. Cliegg Lars w/ removable leg and hover chair - good idea evenflow for the removable leg (except it's Cliegg, not Owen)
02. Owen Lars
03. Beru Whitesun
04. SA Zam Wessel resculpt
05. Jocasta Nu
06. Toonbuck Toora (Senator)
07. Po Nudo (Senator)
08. SA Barris Offee Resculpt
09. SA Obi-Wan
10. SA Jango Fett - can't come up with another one and it's not been confirmed yet.

37
RESULTS!




#01 Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ultimate)
#02 Kitster/Wald
#03 Mawhonic
#04 Queen Padmé Amidala (Pre-Senate)
#05 Queen Padmé Amidala (Post-Senate)
#06 Queen Padmé Amidala (Return to Naboo)
#07 Ratts Tyerell
#08 Tey How
#09 Ben Quadrinaros
#10 Rum Sleg


I don't think I've seen a less interesting set of 10 figures win, even though I voted for 4/10 of these.  Not sure why anyone is excited about getting 9/10 or dissappointed only getting 3/10.  Now, I would be very excited for the 3 OT Wishlists if all 30/30 of my pics were created by Hasbro in the next few years.  If you wanted to get 10/10, just wait until the last day to post, count up the votes yourself, and vote for the most poplular.... walah!!! your list agrees 10/10 with the top vote getters!!! :P

From last year's post:
1.   R2-A6 - I know EE put it out with their exclusive 10 pack, but $80 is a lot to throw down at one time just to get it.
2.   Tey How (Neimoidian Controller)
3.   Amidala Return to Naboo
4.   Amidala Pre-Senate
5.   Amidala Post-Senate
6.   Daultay Dofine
7.   SA Naboo Soldier...  (Jesse's idea)  Head variants with a removable hat.
8.   SA Naboo Royal Security...  with head variants.
9.   SA Obi-Wan
10. SA Qui-Gon.

Surprisingly, there are still several PM figures I want a Wald / Kittster two pack, Mawhonic w/ Salvage Droid,  Quadrinaros/Ratts Tyrell 2 pack, SA Generic Naboo Pilot... (w/  trench coat & removable helmet,  SA Naboo Security Captain with head variants, and Twi'lek Masseuse just to start.

Well, with some help, I was able to get the EE 10-pack for less than $80, so I no longer need R2-A6.  And surprisingly to me, I'm dropping all votes for Amidala outfits, though I would buy them in a second if and when they finally come out, so without further ado,

1.   SA Qui-Gon: rumored or not, he makes the list until they get him right... and work on that face/head sculpt!!
2.   SA Obi-Wan.
3.   SA Naboo Soldier...  (Jesse's idea)  Head variants with a removable hat.
4.   SA Naboo Royal Security...  with head variants.
5.   Naboo Royal Guard Resculpt...  SA resculpt of the guys in red (original had a goatee).
6.   Ben Quadrinaros w/ some kind of droid.
7.   Clegg Holdfast.
8.   Kitster & Wald... very low on the want list, but I'd buy them as a 2pack.
9.   Tey How (Neimoidian Controller)
10.  Daultay Dofine

I agree with evenflow... I hope these do turn out to be true.  With as many ewoks there are that need to be remade, I would be surprised to see a mother and woklings before so many more that should be remade, especially now that Hasbro has started a new height/size for ewoks.  It would be a nice set, though.

« on: April 8, 2007, 12:27 AM »
My order:

1. Yarna Dal Gargan
2. Funeral Pyre Darth Vader
3. Willrow Hood
4. Crispy Owen and Beru Lars Funeral Pyre Qui-Gon Jinn
5. Dead Jawas 2-Pack
6. Funeral Pyre Qui-Gon Jinn

This was really hard to narrow down to only 10.  There are so many resculpts just begging to be done, but I'm going to focus mainly on new figures.

Rebels
SA Human B-Wing Pilot (like vintage figure)
SA Endor Rebel Soldier

Imperials
Captain Piett (new sculpt)
SA AT-ST Driver
Sim Aloo (Imperial Dignitary)

Jabba's Goons
Yarna d'al Gargan
Nikto (like vintage figure)
Skiff Weequay

Ewoks
Lumat & Romba
Warok & Wompus

- note to Scott - I added the Endor Rebel Soldier and removed Fozec.

ok.. sorry... I know I'm being picky here, but you state you are going to focus on new figures and then 9/10 are resculpts, right?  Well, technically, we've never had a Wompus, but that's listed in a 2 pack with a resculpt of Warok.

42
7/10 for me.  Those ideas for sets sound awesome, but I'd hope the Snowspeeder pilot box set would be based on a SA sculpt.  I'd hate to see another box like the DS Briefing Imps with just about 5 points of articulation?  You know once they get the headsculpt, they'll later go back and re-articulate and get the rankings ensignias right, forcing all of us to buy each again on a later single card release.

I just completed my first trade with Harley.  Shipping was really fast and communication was excellent, matching everything I've read here.  A great guy to deal with.

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: 30AC pegwarmers
« on: March 19, 2007, 12:32 AM »
I don't consider a figure to be a pegwarmer for at least 6 months after it's release.  Having a figure on a shelf for 4 weeks to 6 months is just good availability.

Well, now I've read both extremes.  Of course, I've just found this topic and started from the back.  I would't go to this extreme, but 1-2 weeks does not a pegwarmer make.  I've yet to see any figures in my area (St. Louis), though I know several have... I've just been two steps behind so far.  But eventually, I bet Obi & R2 will pegwarm here.   But I like that "good availability" phrase.  Maybe having figures on a shelf 2-4 weeks is good availability and depending on how many of each figure is on the peg.

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: Force Unleashed Replacement Wave
« on: March 18, 2007, 06:31 PM »
Didn't they say in a Q&A or somewhere that they'd be reducing the total # of figs produced this year?  If they just don't ship as often, they wouldn't have a gap to fill, just a little longer between each wave and get the Fprce Unleashed wave back out there when the game is finally released.
