Title: Series 11 Thoughts, Hopes and Dreams
Post by: Scott on June 5, 2009, 06:54 PM
Sooo, with the release of Series 10, what do you think the future holds for our favorite block figures?

I think the possibility of a Clone Wars series is more than strong...
A return to the OT is what I hope for...
And I think another PT Series is what we'll get...

So playing it out, here hedging my bets three ways and what I'd want to see

Clone Wars

Ahsoka
Anakin
Obi-Wan
Rex
Ventress
Plo Koon

OT
Luke Hoth
Leia Hoth
Hammerhead
Tessek
Bib Fortuna
Ree Yees

PT
Obi-Wan Episode III
Kit Fisto
Ki Adi Mundi
Nute Gunray
Bail Organa
Clone of some kind

Anyhoo...we are always way off on these, but it is always fun to speculate

Droids box set   :-X

Vlix
A-Wing Pilot
Kleb Zellock
Jan Tosh
Sise Fromm


Oh wait, you didn't say wish list.  Sorry.

I think Clone Wars is inevitable for now as series 11.  Much prefer OT.

I also fully expect something to be revealed at Parco in a few days so get those thoughts in real quick!

Yeah a Clone WArs themed S11 would not be a shock... but like both of you have already said, I'm ready for a return to the OT to fill in some holes like Hoth Luke, Bib Fortuna, Hammerhead, etc.

Good thoughts on the OT figures for sure! Hammerhead would be so cool, and we need those other Hoth figures at some point.

I see the marketing side of the CW series, but how different could Dooku or the Jedi look in brick form from realistic to animated? They are so stylized to begin with, it is hard to imagine a distinction. If that is the case, then Kit, Plo, and Luminara could show up here and fit in fine with the PT figs.

I want a hood-up Obi Wan at some point as well- He needs to sit in the landspeeder and bluff Sandtroopers as well as duel Darth Vader. It is probably a do-able custom with Luke Jedi's robe being cut off at the hood and painted right, but Medicom would nail it.

I'm betting CW for series 11 too, but we need some more ESB/Hoth love. I want

Luke in Hoth Gear (Wampa damage)
R2 sensorscope (dagobah swap deco)
Leia in Hoth Gear
Ugnaught
Hoth Rebel Soldier
Veer (AT-AT Commander)

Chases:
Hoth Rebel Commander
Lobot
Leia (Bespin Gown)

These are all well and good, but I needs me some more OT kubs!

His head is too big for the hood, I've already tried it...

I'd love to see an ESB wave with the missing Hoth and Bespin figures.  Like everyone else, I'm sure we'll get CW instead.

However, since the next release is a set around Boba Fett, I'd love to see them do a release around the Jedi - Ki-Adi, Kit, Plo, Aayla, Luminara, Baris and some of the remaining members of the Jedi Council as chases.  Wishfull thinking I know...

My money is also on a CW wave.  It seems likely the most likely next step given the end of the prequel waves.  My money is on these figs:

Clone Wars

Ahsoka
Rex
Obi-Wan in clone armor
Padme
Ventress
Magna Guard

Chases: Kit Fisto, Plo Koon, Cody

And by the way, if this were the lineup I would be willing to go get that second mortgage to afford a master case.   I don't think they'll do Anakin because we just got a version of him, but you never know.

Well, before Medicom ruins it for me, I decided to start working on a Rex custom...  Figured I post the teaser in this thread and the finished product in the Customs thread:

To be honest what I want above all else is Medicom to start shipping to the UK and stop this Japan/Hong Kong exclusivity. I don't know maybe Ebay pay medicom a large amount not to expand into the international market :P

Otherwise I'd like to a return the the OT ;)

Just thinking that the Droids stuff would make an excellent fit with the Deluxe line.  Wouldn't you like to see a Kubricks A-wing?

That would be frickin' sweet! 8)

Medicom is about the only company that would even attempt to pull it off too.  They've pulled so much neat vintage stuff out that I'm really hopeful they'll give the Droids series some more love. 

I do get that prequel stuff is popular and will be done but it would be so cool if they'd drop some Droids stuff before that.  I'd actually prefer they mix all the stuff up a bit more.  I'm ecstatic when they're dropping OT stuff into the mix, then bored when they do the PT stuff.  I don't want to wait through six series of deluxe stuff to get to the Droids  ;)

More Droids hope. I really wish they would add a few more. Like Brent sqid, they would do it before Hasbro and do it better. I want Vlix badly.
