GALACTICHUNTER IS FORSEES GOOD THING IN THE FUTURE FOR 2004.

TRILOGY, THEN YOU"LL BE SPENDING PLENTY  OF DOUGH INDEED!!!

First up, if you are craving more Imperials for you collection??
How about a first ever issue of Admiral Ozzeland a new
Imperial Tie Fighter Pilotwith improved articulation!!!!
To round out the Star Destoyer wave a new scuplted Dengarwith backpack.

If you head is up in the clouds now wait for the next wave,BESPIN
which includes long awaited vintage Cloud Car Pilot, Bespin Leia Gown, and a new sculpt of Lobot(much needed). Our very own
Jimmy is also reporting a new African-American Bespin Guard too!!!

If this was not enough completing the Battle of Yarvin waved is a new
Gold Leader X Wing Pilot!!!WoW!!!!! That Blast came from the Death Star!!!

Others that was mention for basic figures was a Dagobah R2-d2 for Dabobah Wave.

A new Han Endor for the Endor Wave.

From the Prequal are Sly Moore, Senator Yarua, and jedi Pablo Jill.

There will also be some reissue of previously release figures as well
Darth Vader, Leia, etc.

Ultra Figures

 For those who love those furry creatures with attitude, an ULTRA Ewok2 Pack with Catapult is planned.


Vechicles,Exclusive, and the Rest

Sandcrawler is coming to Target.  You already knew that. But did
you know that Target will also carry Star Wars drinking glasses packed
with exclusive figures? Cool Concept!!!!!

A new Tie Fighter with more accurately wings as well as new color verson of the Y-Wing and X-wing(Gold Leader) will be dogfighting as an exclusive for a retailer.

Muti-packs to be release includes themes from NABOO FINAL BATTLE,
PIT OF CARTOON, andJEDI COUNCIL(with Shaaak Ti)


Another large 12" exclusive for Kaybee is also planned with the same pricepoint as the Gamorrean Guars..... more detail to follo. Could this
very well be the Momaw Nadon that we heard about awhile ago!!!!!

All for now!!!! Stan

Some exciting things that I'd not expected...  TIE Pilot namely.  I have an army of the original.  I sort of hope the new one doesn't put it to shame, but at least the POTF2 wasn't TOO bad and the pack-ins have been a little better looking too.

Hmmm, "Max articulation" huh?  I'll believe that when I see it...  If they're taking a few pages from 21st Century Toys and BBi's articulation book though (Much like they're doing with G.I. Joe figures here and there) then it could be a great thing, but Hasbro's idea of "Max" articulation and other companies ideas of that are very different.

If the upcoming Clone is indicative of what to expect though it could be a truly great thing, and Hasbro could be a dominant company when it comes to 3.75"/1:18 articulation styling.  I'm hoping for great things with this announcement but I hold reservations about the ability of Hasbro to truly come through on it.

We shall see though!

Oh, and yet another TIE Fighter?  Hmmm, why not just do it right in the first place, ya know?  Oh well...  If this is the truly "Proper" TIE we all wanted in the first place, then sign me up for as many as I can find...  I want a full squad of these badboys!  :)  Hell, I'd buy just the pods if Hasbro made them available, so I could improve my Interceptor flight too.  Hmmm, could the Interceptors be next (released with new pods that is)???  

Good news for sure.  2004 and this tail end of 2003 are shaping up to be a fun time to collect once again.  Thank god 2002-2003's "dark times" are gone.  Easily this has been the worst year for collecting IMO, from a distribution standpoiont to an overall quality standpoint, and I for one am happy to see things turning the way the line needs them to for it to truly thrive!

Post by: Vator on October 12, 2003, 07:50 PM
I am concerned with the price of the new TIE,could be hiked up to 40 :o
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Jimmy on October 12, 2003, 08:07 PM
D_C_F just remember that the TIE out now was a KB exclusive and aside from the fact of it being an exclusive... it's a KB exclusive which automatically makes it more over priced than if it was anyone else exclusive.

I have not heard of this piece... but I can look into more...
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: stan on October 12, 2003, 10:22 PM
Hey Jimmy,
 Have you heard from your source from hong kong on the stuff that was
listed on galtichunter- any word if the new tie is a new sculpt. Any other
new figures you can share would be greatly appreicated. thanks!!!
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: stan on October 12, 2003, 10:41 PM
Hey guys they listed a gold leader x-wing pilot- I thought gold was
the y-wing pilot  and  red leader (Graven Dreis)was the X Wing Pilot
can any one shed some light on this.  We must also be get get a Mos Isly
wave at some point since Hem Dazzon is coming.
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Darby on October 13, 2003, 12:20 AM
It all sounds great to me.  I hope the Dagobah R2 signals a Dagobah wave with the Luke and Yoda we've all been waiting for.  That would just be too good to be true.  Very pleased with the Bespin wave, but still a little sore about the lack of PT figs.  From the sounds of it, with the possibility of the OT on DVD this time next year, there's a reason.

Naboo Final Battle - Obi, Maul, Qui-Gon?

Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Morgbug on October 13, 2003, 01:27 AM
Wow, pretty amazing list that is.  Thanks Jimmy/Stan.

Question:  will the Dagobah R2 just be a re-release of the mucked up R2 with Luke's Dagobah X-wing?  Would be a cheap way to get a new carded figure out.
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: JediMAC on October 13, 2003, 02:32 AM
It all sounds good to me!  2004 is going to be better than 1995 - 2003 combined!  OT focus continuing, and "MAX" articulation.  Most excellent!   8)  

Admiral Ozzel - obviously a great choice.  Nice to finally knock one more of the Impy Officers off the list.

New Imperial TIE Pilot - OK.  The old one was cool, but hopefully the added articulation on this one will be worth it.

Cloud Car Pilot - Always fun to knock another Vintage figure off the list.  Cool!  Better be gettin' a ride for this poor fella soon though!

Leia Bespin Gown - The PLC one was pretty nice, but I'll take a new one.

Lobot - Along with R5, the most needed resculpt around, so a great choice here.  The Bespin dioramas will finally get a normal look now!

Dagobah R2-D2 - The last R2 still needed after the Bartender version announcement.  I don't count that X-Wing one, since that was just speckled on spotted paint.  NO WAY they card that piece of crap.  Use a better R2 body, and give it a proper Dagobah muck job, and this will be a cool figure.  Toss in a few of Luke's accessories too!

Dengar - Already announced, but will be nice to get a more ESB accurate version.

Gold Leader X-Wing Pilot - Whether this is actually Gold or Red Leader, it should be cool!  Might be both.  I wonder if it'll be coming WITH the new Y-Wing and X-Wing, or separately?

New Han Endor - Old one's fine, but if this one improves on it then that's cool with me.  I'd assume a cloth cape this time 'round...

I'd still like to see some more freakin' Cantina aliens though!  Where the hell are they?!?   :-\  Or might they be in that bizarre new "Drinking Glass" assortment...?  Perhaps!   8)  Granted, that's not going to be my most favorite packaging in the world, but it should be fun if they're actually functional glasses...

Sly Moore and the Wookie Senator are definitely good additions from the Senate, and much requested ones at that...  One step closer to our ET?  ;)

Pablo Jill - No complaints when another Jedi gets added into the mix!  I'm sure those Pable Jill petitioners are rejoicing in the streets right now...    :P

Ewok w/ Catapult - The final piece that rounds out the Ultra line.  Another nice one, and nod to the Vintage era.  Hopefully we get an Ewok/Glider soon too (besides the Complete Galaxy one).

Sandcrawler - Expected, but about time!  Target?  Cool!  Same for the new X-Wing and Y-Wing.  Hopefully they stick with the more accurate PowerFX version for the former.

New Tie Fighter with properly scaled wings...?  WTF?!?   >:(  Exactly why would they waste their damned time putting out the KB version with crappy wings, if they had a proper one, like what we've all been asking for, already in the works?!?  Damned idiots.  My prediction:  Hasbro gives us the correctly scaled wings finally, but puts the OLD cockpit with the handle/battery compartment on it!!!  OK, I'm kidding, hopefully...  If they do get the correct wings, with the correct cockpit, this will be a beautiful, long overdue, and greatly demanded ship.  Just no idea why they had to put out the half-assed KB one right now though...   ::)   :-\

Sounds like 3 new Screen Scenes too!  Pit of Carkoon, Naboo Final Battle & another Jedi Council set...  Absolutely awesome!  Can't wait for these, and hopefully many more...

Another great day of Star Wars news (whether these have been mentioned before or not)!  But let's please try to keep this thread about the figures themselves from now on...  Thanks!   :-*
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Nicklab on October 13, 2003, 06:53 AM
Jimmy, I can see how you might be right regarding the TIE Fighter listing.  I'd be very surprised if Hasbro released two distinctly different TIE Fighters in the course of two years.  I'm just curious how long you've had the info floating around.

I'm certainly hoping that the multi-packs listed are Screen Scenes.  I think these have been reasonably successful items.  The Trash Compactor is nowhere to be found, and the Jedi Council and Geonosian War Chamber don't tend to hang around on shelves for too long.

A third Jedi Council set would be most welcome in my collection.  Having a Shaak Ti you can set would be a nice bonus.

The Naboo Final Battle screams the Darth Maul/Qui-Gon Jinn/Obi-Wan kenobi duel to me.  I could see these released as two sets.  One with Qui-Gon dueling Darth Maul.  The second as Obi-Wan trapped behind the energy barrier, watching helplessly.

A Pit of Carkoon Screen Scene is a little puzzling to me.  It seems that it could be any of a number of things.  I'd be genuinely surprised if it's our heroes from the Skiff.  The only other settings I could see as likely candidates are the Sail Barge deck, with gunners, guards & Luke.  The other would be in Jabba's chamber on the Sail Barge, with his various alien hangers-on and C-3PO watching through the blinds.  Not terribly exciting stuff, though.  My money would be on the Sail Barge deck, as it might integrate with the POTJ Deluxe Leia's Sail Barge Cannon.

Just my two cents worth.
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Brian on October 13, 2003, 09:40 AM
I was pretty psyched to see this list as well, especially with the big focus on the OT.  It would just be the icing on the cake if, as someone mentioned above, the focus is due in part to the DVDs being released next year (as rumored).  2004 would just be too great then :).  As far as the figures, I am really excited for all of these.  If they turn out as good as they could be, and in line with what we have seen already for late 2003 and 2004...I really think 2004 could be one of the best collecting years ever.  It seems like Hasbro is really listening to what we have to say, and we're getting much of what we've been asking for over the years.  I know many people despise resculpts of the main characters, but honestly, the versions they are supposedly releasing are ones I have wanted for awhile...Hoth Luke, Jedi Luke, Bespin Leia, Dagobah R2, Skiff Lando, and especially Endor Han.  I've kind of been wanting a non-buff version with a nice trenchcoat...that was my favorite vintage figure as a kid.  Plus, all of the other figures/vehicles sound great too...Ozzel, Lobot, Pablo Jill, Wookie Senator, Ewoks w/ catapult, so much to list.  I really hope that most of this turns out to be true, my wallet's going to be suffering next year if it is though :).
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Darth Broem on October 13, 2003, 10:21 AM
I am already hyped for 2004.  I know Jimmy had mentioned most of this stuff already.  It's great to get early scoops.  So, I always look forward to a post from Jimmy.  Who wouldn't?  Good job!  

Anyway I am please to hear about most of the stuff that's coming.  

Bespin Gown Leia - Yes!  I know the one with the Leia collection was ok but honestly I wanted a better one.  Hope this one is.  

Ewok Catapult - I am hoping for 2 new ewoks with this one and heck a catapult can't be bad.  Right?  

Drink Glasses & figures - I don't care to get glasses so I hope the figures are something that we all want.  Otherwise this will be staying on the shelves.

Lobot - I don't know if I will get one.  Lobot is one of those figures I have that's ok with me.  Not great but I don't really care if they ever made redid it again.  

Admiral Ozzel - Well this is a no-brainer.  I will get this for certain

Cloud Car Pilot - Great!  Now we just need the Cloud Car itself.  

Pablo Jill - Yep the last Jedi I want from AOTC.  Well maybe Bultar Swan.  

Senator Yarua - Definitely want it.

Sly Moore - Sure, why not?  

Dagobah R2 - Yes!  Now I don't need to buy that TRU exclusive X-Wing

TIE fighter pilot - You guys can him I got enough pilots

Gold Leader - Yeah, I will get it.  I kind of hope it's a removeable helmet.  

3 New Screen Scenes -  I was hoping for a Cantina scene the most.  The others sound ok.  I am interested the most with the Jabba scene depending on what's in it.  

All in all 2004 is sounding great to me!!

Post by: Scott on October 13, 2003, 10:56 AM
Good stuff and to me the GH post just confirms that Jimmy has got the goods and that two sources have confirmed the same things...nice work as always Jimmy and keep 'em coming

Two things that leap out at me, most of the non-winners of the Fan Choice Polls are being made

Bold made, Unbold Yet to be made

FC #1
Ellors Madak
Amanaman
Teemto Pagalies
Eeth Koth
Bom Vimdin

FC #2
Amanaman
Yarael Poof
Admiral Ozzel
Major Derlin
Ben Quadinaros

FC #3
Ephant Mon
Twi'lek Masseuse
R1 Droid
General Rieekan
Even Piell

FC #4
Concept Stormtrooper
General Rieekan
Imperial Dignitary
Endor Rebel in Biker Scout Disguise
Nym

FC #5
Captain Antilles Winner
General Dodonna
Wookiee Senator
Ben Quadinaros
Rabé

The other is that I got the following of my current top 50...

Yarua
Admiral Ozzel
Cloud Car Pilot
Sly Moore
Gold Leader
Red Leader (I'm assuming one will come carded the other with the X-Wing)

The others sound cool with some much needed resculpts (Dengar, Lobot and Leia), not to hip on the screen scene selections but I'll probably all of it!
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Mainland05 on October 13, 2003, 10:59 AM
I think the Sly Moore figure will be pretty cool.
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Simdog on October 13, 2003, 11:02 AM
I don't really like the selections for the multi-packs and I hope they are just that, TRU Multi-packs instead of screen scenes.  I can see Hasbro packing in Naboo Final battle figures in a TRU multi-pack and making them exclusive.  Why would they go through the trouble of making new molds for Qui, Obi and Maul again?  

Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Mainland05 on October 13, 2003, 01:55 PM
true that, i totally agree with you, it is a big waste of money on Hasbro's part!
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Jimmy on October 13, 2003, 02:34 PM
Hey guys thanks for the support and compliments...

I don't want anyone to think I was out for sympathy at all. I just wanted people to realize just how cut throat people can be... Even though it's not about " website politics, ill-will, or egos"  ::)

I have talked to my friend in HK and heard a few more tid bits...

I know people are wondering what's up w/ the Y-Wing and X-Wing...

Both will be done in different colors (obviously) and from what I have heard the Y-Wing is looking to be  a throwback to the vintage in that the R2 unit will be removable. Though that is not yet been set in stone but if so it will include two pack ins... a pilot and and R2 unit.

The X-Wing will be the Saga/FX version which also now allows a different R2 unit to be placed inside. Haven;t heard of any pack ins yet on this piece (if any).


TRU four packs are still on tap and at least three new ones are on schedule. Though the fate of these could very well see end as I mentioned in the past... due to sales (or lack thereof).


There is a Cantina wave being thrown around (at this point) and there have been a few figures talked of...
Of course Hem Dazon and Banniss Keeg (both mentioned before)... though the list now sports possibles of Bom Vindim, Gotal, and the Givin...

"Rumor" has it that we could also see the much wanted "U" shape part of the Cantina bar section.
This I believe depends on where the chips fall w/ the second series Cantina sets.


The Cloud Car is still on tap at this point and obviously will be another retailer exclusive.


The three pack concept is still being talked of... and I think would be a HUGE welcome to fans/collectors.
Those were the packs I talked of earlier w/ builders from the OT. Sales on the CW packs thus far look great... so hopefully Hasbro will take a huge note and this will end up a go.


Some people have talked about (and asked about) a new Jawa... As far as I know there will be a Jawa released... however I have not heard it will be included w/ the R1-G4 as some are wondering. I will look into that a little more though...

Jimmy where's Hermie? Jimmy's where's Bib?
Well fear not they have not got the axe yet... though they have not been confirmed yet either. It's very possible we could see these through other avenues and not just standard carded figs.

There are the TRU four packs, Screen Scenes, and I have even heard talk of more possible FC exclusives in the future...

Of course w/ Hasbro anything and everything is subject to change. Some of the pieces I hear about I hear a year or more in advance... It's weird like that.

But don't take my word for it...
I mean GalacticHunter will post about in 6 months or so...

Thanks again guys for the support and belief. I do this for fun and nothing more...

A HUGE thanks to Nick and Chris (Del) from The Jawa... Two great guys part of my former alumni  ;)



Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Jimmy on October 13, 2003, 03:07 PM
One thing I did forget to mention was that we should also finally see the as yet produced Vader from the Bespin Dinner scene.

Which was once to be an inclusion w/ the CD-Rom line style...

Enjoy girls and boys  :)

Yeah, I agree.  Jimmy is the man.  Jimmy, is there any talk about the next Fan Choice Poll and when it will be?  

BTY, has anyone put together a list of all the 2004 figures as well as the newly rumored figures yet?  I sure would like to see it.  I would like to see the blanks filled up wave by wave.
Title: Re: MORE NEW FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Brian on October 13, 2003, 03:59 PM
I was thinking the same thing Simdog, I'd like to see everything listed as well...plus, we might be able to figure out some more of the waves for 2004 if true.  I know I'd like to see a Dagobah wave (Luke, Yoda?), as well as an Endor wave (maybe redos of Endor Luke/Leia, more ewoks, etc.)  Anyways, great news, and thanks again Jimmy for dropping knowledge on us, I know I always keep an eye open for your posts :).

2004 is shaping up to be outstanding.  I just hope that the sceen scenes are good ones.  Lets keep our fingers crossed for Hermi Odle.

Guys, Jimmy also mentioned the CD ROM Vader Bespin.  Good news, but I wonder what happened to Hologram Nute Gunray.  I guess it will come out one day.  It would be a good figure to pack into a TRU Naboo 4 pack with Swamp Obi and the Trophy OOM-9.

Jimmy, do you know any thing about an R5-D4 possibly showing up?

The more "colorful" discussion from this thread has been removed, and placed into a seperate topic: "Who's got the scoop?"  That thread has been closed since all relevant parties have said their peace.  Now let's get back to the fun part of discussing these great new figure selections, regardless of who made the announcement, and when!

Thank you!   :-*

Wow.... this looks like some nice variety by Hasbro with new figures, along with some much needed resculpts (Endor Han).

I really can't wait to see some pics of this stuff...

And too bad it's my bedtime (according to my wife), I'd like to comment more! ;)

Post by: Jimmy on October 14, 2003, 09:28 PM
I've heard of possibles for 2005... though it's far to early to even bother mentioning IMHO.

Things that are "on tap" for 2004 could get nixed... nevermind 2005.

The AT-TE (3 3/4" scale form) was talked even talked of at one point... That was a piece I had heard about in early Feb of this year and mentioned back in April on The Trade Fed (http://www.tradefederation.net/cldata/tfforum2/471.html)... though I don't see this piece happening anytime soon... if at all to be honest.

It'd be a pricey piece for Hasbro to go w/... and right now I'm not sure they want to introduce that caliber of a toy to the market.


David is definitely right (as Stan in his PM to me) Hasbro is looking into a hefty style playset... but nothing for '04 that I have heard of.

I think 2004 alone will have collectors bushy eyed for the year... From the very few things I have got to see there is some incredible stuff coming down pike...


I promise you that all the info I receive is from a very reliable source... and not some retail lists. Granted I run w/ things and take the chance they could not see the light... though I think many collectors are at the very least curious to know what goes through the minds behind our favorite toys... even if they may not see some come to fruition.

Although I have been accused of "guessing" and coming out lucky... Which I find quite amusing...  ;)

If I'm that good anyone need their future told?  ::)

I hope that all enjoy..

I really hope these rumors pan out. I hope that Hasbro eventually revisits every vintage figure in the line.  With these possible figs, it looks like we can chalk up all of the New Hope and Empire figs from the vintage line.  Leaving just a few from the Jedi line. Some may pick out certain figs as unmade yet (DS Droid, Hoth Commander, Bespin Guard w/moustache, etc)

I've kinda wanted a set of SW glasses for my place.  The one guy from the Pittsburgh SWC group I'm sure is gonna have those as his main drinking glasses, haha. :)  

The wave with Gold leader looks like a good one.  I hope the Han Endor is really something special though.  That last one from Saga was a real disappointment and I've been wanting one either with a coat molded on or a removeable (good) cloth coat for a while.

Good heads up mosnab, especially the fun news on those glasses for those into the odder collectibles.

That's something I'm really looking forward to as well.  I know many people greatly dislike main characters, or resculpts, but I've really been wanting a very well done Han Endor for awhile now.  The 2002 Saga version didn't cut it for me either personally, and I want one with the coat included.  That was my favorite vintage figure growing up, I'd like to see it done the way it should be for Saga 2004.  Hope it turns out!

Post by: JediMAC on October 16, 2003, 04:31 PM
This is what I mentioned over at GH about the glasses:

Can't say that I'm too thrilled about a re-release of the Vintage Burger King glasses really... Sure, it's a great and very nostalgic set that many people would probably love to get, but it's just one of those vintage collectibles that should be left alone so that it's place in the hobby isn't altered at all... A re-release of all of them just takes away from the magic and joy of tracking down a nice set of the REAL glasses (and this has NOTHING to do with their "value")...

That was a tough, but enjoyable, challenge replacing all my old glasses that I had as a kid, but I'm so glad that I did since these are some of my all-time favorite items in my collection.  So to see them just randomly lying about on the Target shelves in the future will likely somewhat diminish the great feelings I have when I look at my Vintage set on my shelf... Oh well, I guess I'll live.

So I wonder if they'll be putting the same respective figure in the glass, that appears on the glass itself? I guess that would be most logical.  Almost fits with their HOF figure list, aside from the PT characters...
Title: Re: RUMORS FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Brian on October 16, 2003, 04:51 PM
I was kind of curious about that as well JediMAC, putting the figure inside the glass...that was on the glass.  I wasn't sure how to feel about the possibly re-release of these glasses either.  On one hand, I had some when I was a kid, but they aren't in the best shape now after years of going through the dishwasher courtesy of my parents...but you didn't think of that back then.  I have actually been looking over ebay the past month or so hoping to pick up the sets little by little.  I can't decide now if I want to keep doing that, or wait and get the "re-releases" at Target if this comes true.  It would be nice to have the originals, but if they are going to be exactly the same, and cost less...I suppose I might go with the Target versions.  It is hard to know what to do, I'm with you, this was always one of my favorite collectibles from Star Wars, and it would be nice to have them all on display.  Hopefully we will find some more details soon.

My pal Jimmy has come up with some more scoops and looks to have taken back the reins of the Trade Federation

Anyway...looks like he's got some more possible figures...

Luke Endor
E3-P0
Cloud Car pilot
Bespin Leia
Ewok (we assume Chief Chirpa as mentioned before)
Death Star Trooper (although listed as "officer")
C3-P0 with knee articulation
Luke in robes from medical frigate

Post by: JediMAC on December 2, 2003, 11:44 PM
Yeah, we've heard rumors on some of those for quite a while now, including from Galactic Hunter's Swami not too long ago, but a few of those are new to the rumor mill.  If they pan out, I'm cool with getting a Medical Frigate Luke, no matter how boring the figure might be.  It is just about his last incarnation that we've yet to receive.  The more protocol droids the better, so an E-3PO would be a welcome addition too.

I hope the Death Star Trooper turns out to be a 'definitive' version of this character.  The one that got pumped out in the POTF2 line, and the subsequent Target accessory set, wasn't too hot.  I'd love one along the lines of the new Captain Antilles, with removable helmet and loads of articulation (and a neutral stance dammit!)...
Title: Re: RUMORS FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Mister Skeezler on December 3, 2003, 11:35 AM
These lists are getting better all the time...

Luke Endor: Hopefully with a removeable helmet and soft goods poncho. It would be kick ass if he's able to hang his lightsaber handle on his belt. I'm crossing my fingers for good articulation on this. If all this stuff is removeable, we'll also have a good final duel Luke.

E3-P0: The more protocol droids the better.

Cloud Car pilot: Could this be the sign of a really cool surprise next year?

Bespin Leia: Hasbro has done a great job with all the Padme gowns, so I'm sure this will look great, finally. A nice addition to my Bespin setup.

Ewok: I'll be happy if this is Chief Chirpa, I'll be happy if it isn't. Either way its another Ewok.

Death Star Trooper: Finally! I've been waiting for a resculpt of this guy since the disco dancing POTF2 version. I'm hoping for some sweet articulation on this guy. And the removeable helmet. Hell, they could throw the POTF2 head on the POTJ Imperial Officer body and I'd be happy (not as happy as if its new, but still happy).

C3-P0 with knee articulation: "I'm sorry Captain Solo, but its against my programming to impersonate a diety." Sweeeeeet.

Luke in robes from medical frigate: One of my favorite shots from the OT. I'm hoping for a Leia to stand with him, and then this will be a centerpiece of my OT setup!

What about Bib Fortuna? Are we not getting that rumored resculpt?  ???
Title: Re: RUMORS FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Brian on December 3, 2003, 11:54 AM
I agree totally, these lists keep getting better and better.  I really hope we get to see all of these figures as well.  I've always wanted to get a good Endor Luke (as well as the rumored Han), and I hope it comes accessorized and articulated to the T.  Its always nice to see another ewok included, hopefully it is Chirpa, as has been rumored.  Also, a jointed knees 3PO would be pretty sweet.  All of these sound great, I hope that they end up being true.  Seems like a rumored "endor" wave of Han, Luke, Ewok, and maybe a Deluxe 3PO with Throne would be a good idea.  Who knows, but hopefully it turns out that way.

It's nice to see Jimmy back in the saddle again, and with some fresh news.  However, I always get confused with which protocol droid E-3PO is.  Is it the silver one from A New Hope or the silver one from The Empire Strikes Back?

An endor Luke is certainly overdue.  Nice to see that in there.  And while I think that Medical Frigate Luke is somethign we've never seen, it does seem a little boring.  It also has the potential to bring us back to that dreaded land of too many Lukes!

They look almost identical

Post by: Nicklab on December 4, 2003, 04:59 AM
I think there are some VERY SLIGHT differences between the two.  The one on the Tantive IV, U-3PO has the duller finish of the two.  Also, the fabric in the droid's midsection that the wires run over is black.  On E-3PO, I think the finish might be shinier, and the midsection fabric is more of a tan or beige.  That's the way I recall it, anyway.

As for celebrating Life Day, I've got a copy of the Holiday Special.  I just don't know if I can bare to sit through it.   :P

Title: Re: RUMORS FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Jesse James on December 5, 2003, 02:28 AM
Woo hoo on the Endor wave news...  Some much needed resculpting there.

Now, so long as Hasbro does the resculpts right, that wave should be a hot one I'd think...

My personal fave is the  Ewok 2-pack...  I REALLY hope Hasbro's considering reusing the Teebo sculpt though, with new head/hood sculpts and weapons.  I felt it was the definitive Ewok sculpt personally.  Nice, poseable, and relatively generic.

That's gonna be one hot army building deluxe set I think.

The Lando, and Han are great as well.  I wonder if soft-goods will be implemented at all in either?  Besides the cloaks/coats I'm also curious if both will have functioning holsters?  I'd personally LOVE to see the Lando have a chest holster that worked.  That'd be a neat custom fodder piece if that's t he case...  The Han, I would assume, will have a working holster...  The coat will be key to how good he is though.  Plastic's going to limit his poseability, and soft-goods will raise lots of eyebrows from those who hate the use of cloth.  I'm torn, but honestly I'd love a poseable Han with a soft-goods cloak like the vintage, so we could have Han with and without coat.

Madine's not overly interesting, but one I've really wanted to see.  Like Dodonna and Riekean, he's just not an amazing character, but he's been much needed.  I wonder what his accessories will be?
Title: Re: RUMORS FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Brian on December 5, 2003, 10:36 AM
I was really happy to see that Swami report as well, I hope it all turns out to be true.  I've personally really been hoping for an Endor Han resculpt (I wasn't overly happy with the 2002 version, like many others).  I hope they do it up like Jesse James suggested....lots of articulation, working holster, soft goods coat, etc.  I'm also very happy to hear about a General Lando, another needed resculpt.  Madine and any Ewoks are always welcome as well, hopefully they use this two pack to release a couple of the vintage ones that haven't come out yet.  I'll be looking forward to (hopefully) confirmation and, in the future, pics of this wave.

Title: New Endor Wave!
Post by: JediMAC on December 5, 2003, 05:43 PM
Han Endor - Blah.  OK, I guess - as long as Hasbro definitely supes him up a bit, to differentiate him from his two previous releases (3 if you count his initial pants color change).  I assume they'll attempt to go with a cloth trenchcoat this time around, which will hopefully be easily removable to re-enact the various other Endor scenes with Han.  Better articulation is an obvious must this time around as well.  I'm sure it'll be an improved likeness, and all will be happy...


General Madine - 'Bout time!  Not a a very exciting character of course, but certainly a worthy choice for plastic as a prominent secondary character, a Rebel General, a character who has speaking parts, and one of the few remaining Vintage figures not remade yet.  I'd say that's enough to convince me.  Good deal!  Bring him on!


General Calrissian - Another probable candidate for the soft goods treatment here.  Not to mention one of the consensus Top 5 figures in need of a resculpt!  Much needed, and much appreciated.  Hasbro appears to have now made ammends for both their prior Lando (and Lobot) wide stanced goofs.  3 for 3 in the resculpt department there.  With this Lando, and the Skiff Lando resculpts coming, Hasbro had no options left for him except to finally give us the Smuggler outfit Lando seen at the very end of ESB.  Make it happen Hasbro!   8)

Ewok 2 Pack w/ Catapult - Wow!  If this turns out to actually include TWO Ewoks, that'd be very cool!  I was only expecting one with the catapult.  I wonder if they'll just be generic Ewoks (in which case probably partially rehashes), or if they'll actually name them and give them the royal treatment (Chirpa, etc...)?  The Vintage catapult was cool, but hopefully Hasbro steps up and goes with an all-new mold for the catapult.  But I'll live if they don't.  I hate the Ewoks, but I'll admit that more figures of them are long overdue...  I'd still like to see one with a Glider too (aside from the Complete Galaxy release several years ago).

Question:  Shouldn't that long rumored C-3PO on Ewok throne be in this wave as well?  Hopefully he is later on down the line when it finally gets released.  I'll be a little bummed if we never get that...
Title: Re: RUMORS FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Darby on December 5, 2003, 06:27 PM
I echo everyone's sentiments above.  What really impresses me is next year, Hasbro seems to be sweeping up lots of characters we've wanted for a long time.  If the lists are accurate, nearly every Luke will be available.  All the Rebel generals - once pipe dreams - are done in one year.  Ewoks!  The Cabbeshite guy!  R-3PO!  The Dignitaries!  It amazes.   This past year they finished off the Jedi Council (EP1 style).   Does anyone else think there isn't much left to do?  
Title: Re: RUMORS FOR 2004!!!!!!

Although this isn't for sure, and maybe someone else can confirm this (I don't have my Insider yet)...but according to SSG forum member Battle Droid, the latest Insider has confirmation of TRU exclusive Jedi Council sets, as well as Basic Wave 6: Battle of Endor.  Here is the text from his post:

From, Star Wars Insider #73.

The Jedi Council sets will continue at ToysRus so we'll have the entire Council Scene, including the center piece.

The first set will include Yoda, Qui-Gon-Jinn, and Ki-Adi Mundi.

Basic Wave 6: The Battle of Endor Wave

Han Solo as AT-ST Driver.
General Madine.
General Lando Calrissian.

Hopefully this is true, I've really been wanting a new Endor Han since 2002's poor offering.  Hopefully they make it the "ultimate"-ish Han, and not specific with only the AT-ST Helmet and gloves.  It would be nice if it was a good Endor Han with his removable trench, the helmet, etc.  Also good to see Madine and a new General Lando if this is true.  The council sets also sound great, it would be nice to "complete the circle".  I don't have my Insider yet (I think it gets to subscribers on Dec. 26 according to the official site?).  Anyways, until then, take it with a grain of salt, but hopefully it turns out to be true.

I've always thought that Hasbro would give us the complete Jedi Council after giving us the first two, especially since their were many more "seated" Jedi that they needed to do, even if we bought multiples of the first two sets to complete the circle of chairs.  But I admit that I've been a little more worried about that of late, since those Screen Scene sets are really warming the shelves in mass abundance around here now.

So it sounds like the remaining ones are going to be TRU exclusives.  That kinda blows, since they charge $2 more than Target does on them...  Oh well, I'd rather pay a little more than not get them at all!  I really hope they make sure to get that center piece of the floor in there somewhere too, along with a nice outer wall w/ windows cardboard display of some type.  I would think that Obi-Wan, Qui-Gonn, and young Anakin would fit well with the center piece of the floor, but it sounds like Qui's on tap for a regular set.  I wonder if they'll make him able to sit down or not.  Doesn't really seem necessary with him, though I certainly wouldn't mind.  Dumb that Hasbro put out a couple of standing Jedi in the previous two sets though (Depa Billaba & Even Piell), that will never be able to sit down either.  What the hell's up with that?!?

Looking forward to the three Endor fellas there too, of course.  Madine's a no-brainer, and one of the few vintage holdouts.  General Lando's one of the Top 5 for most needed rescuplts, so that's a welcome addition.  AT-ST Han sounds cool too.  An Endor Han had already been rumored, so hopefully Brian's guessing is accurate - that they give us a great Endor Han, with an AT-ST helmet to toss on as an added accessory.

Rumors abound that the Endor wave will go beyond these three of course, to include Luke, Leia, Ewok(s), Ackbar, and maybe a couple others.  God, next year is going to be absolutely AMAZING for Original Trilogy enthusiasts.  Sounds like Hasbro's gonna redo half of the previous line.  Cool by me...   8)

Qui-Gon give me hope we're going to see a new E1 Obi or possibly even a E2 robed Obi.  Both of those are overdue.  I don't know about Han At-St.  If they throw the helmet in with a trench coat, ok, but this was never a figure I really wanted.

What's encouraging about Qui-Gon being listed is this:  it doesn't leave a Council member seatless.  We could get a standing robed EI Obi-Wan, as well as EII standing versions of Obi-Wan and Anakin.  Think of it like this:

EI Qui-Gon with Yoda & Ki-Adi Mundi
EI Obi-Wan with Plo Koon & Eeth Koth
EII Anakin with seated Shaak Ti &  Adi Gallia
EII Obi-Wan with seated Coleman Trebor & Saesee Tiin

Post by: Jesse James on December 30, 2003, 01:52 PM
Wow, now that's a nice breakdown of the rumor list there Scott!  Even better than the one above there I posted in.

Great work with all the pictures.  That's making things a LOT easier to follow since some of the names were vague to me!

My top 3 are still Hermi Odle (I want him to come with apples!), Death Star Trooper, and Stormtrooper...

I just hope the latter two have super articulation and great army building features like working holsters and removable headgear ('cept maybe the stormie).

Hem Dazon's a nice one too since he's my top Cantina Alien personally, and Dannik Jerricho's my second most wanted Cantina Patron.

I'm only slightly disappointed by the lack of army builder-type figures, though there are a handful like the Cloud Car pilot and figures who've already been confirmed for next year I suppose.  

I'm curious just how much of that gets made...  That' seems like a LOT of figures for even a movie year to see. :)

To cut Hasbro some slack, they can skip Mas Amedda, Bespin Dinner Vader (all it has is the silly blaster effect), & Nien Numb (Endor) for 2004 and they can make ALL of the others!!! ;D ;D

Dagobah Wave
Stéphane: A well-connected, but anonymous source has confirmed that Hasbro plans to release a Dagobah wave, made up of at least R2-D2, Luke, Obi-wan Kenobi (spirit) and Yoda. As always nothing is official until Hasbro announces it so keep an eye on their website for upcoming revelations.
Title: Re: RUMORS FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: Darby on January 18, 2004, 06:37 PM
Hopefully this pans out, because it will be one of the best waves ever.  All of these figures with the exception maybe of R2 badly need resculpts.  Throw in some gear boxes and extendable arms with R2, and we're golden.
Title: Re: RUMORS FOR 2004!!!!!!
Post by: SilverZ on January 18, 2004, 06:52 PM
Totally agree it sounds like a great wave. First I've heard of a new Obi Spirit. I'd love to see a good version carded. I'd even be OK if the repackaged Dagobah Vader on a Saga card as well.

Post by: Brian on January 19, 2004, 08:57 AM
I really hope that this ends up being true as well.  I've really been hoping for a new Dagobah Luke and a new OT Yoda for a long time.  The Obi-wan spirit is a nice surprise too.  I never got the Dagobah X-Wing, so the R2 is fine with me as well.  Hopefully we'll find out this is a go in the next month or so.  This is certainly the "year of the Luke" though, not that I am complaining either, all have been well done so far.

Post by: JediMAC on January 21, 2004, 07:12 PM
Yeah, pretty cool looking there!  Been waiting for this figure/accessory for quite a while, since that Complete Galaxy version didn't quite cut it.  Looks like lots of goodies with this one.  Can't tell if any of the figure's parts are reused from prior Ewoks, but there's at least some new parts on him so that's cool.  Looks like the head and cowl are sculpted together though...

This will go well with the Ewok(s) with Catapult, and probably another little fuzzball or two on standard cards.  I'm sure Brad and his buddies will be thrilled!   :P

So anyone think any of these will be coming in 4th Quarter or was this list full of junk?  

We've gotten word that the Coruscant Wave (Sly Moore, Pablo Jill and Senator Yarua) still might happen later this year.  Stay tuned ;)

I also spoke with Jimmy the other night, he said things are pretty slow in Hasbro land right now and things that have been planned may have been scrapped due to the whole OTC line.  Things like Bib were indeed in the works and seem to have been dumped in favor of an old mold.

I just read over at RS that one of the Asian Market posters who sometimes gets info early is saying these will be marketed as an ep3 sneak previeew wave?

Huh?

Like you said Scott, I guess if all three are in Episode 3 then it would make sense... strange though.

I hope those figures on the main page still make it out. I was really looking forward to them.


Also, what will it take to get a Yarna Da'l Gargan figure. I mean geeze how many posts and petitions before hasbro listens.
