Title: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: David on April 15, 2007, 09:30 PM
2007 looks very exciting!!!

Who are you looking forward to the most?

I can't WAIT for:

1. Holiday Boba Fett
2. VTAC Endor Leia
3. Jawa w/LIN Droid
4. CZ-4

These four are in a whole different league from any other figures EVER produced in my opinion, besides maybe Death Star Gunner, Sun Fac, Concept Boba Fett, and VTSC Biker Scout.

Well...what are YOU GUYS most looking forward to?  8)

#1 - Vintage Snowtrooper

Others - Miyoom, Elis Helrot, Hermi Odle -- well-sculpted background aliens rock!
SA Stormtrooper -- can never have too many, but the helmet is kinda off
McQuarrie Vader -- love that mask

I'm really itching for the vintage Leia to have a seated ROTJ meeting Leia of proper scale to put in my dio.  For the same reason, I'm thrilled about the supposed A-Wing pilot.

Tough call for me...  I mean, the Rebel Honor Guard's high on my list, DST, the entire Vintage line, Myoom, McFett, Holiday Fett, Stormtrooper...

It's a busy expensive year, but everything I mentioend is super articulated...  This is my collecting wet dream.

Who are you looking forward to the most?

I am really, really looking forward to getting those EU Pit Droids in the Saga Legends line-up.

They have been on my needs list since 2000.  It will be really, really nice to finally cross them off my list...  :)
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Jesse James on April 16, 2007, 05:59 PM
I forgot about those actually.  I'm looking forward to the pit droids too...  They were the only figure I voted for throughout that contest.  The rest of it was just boring.
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: David on April 16, 2007, 07:54 PM
Me too!

I totally overlooked Saga Legends in my list. I am now looking forward to Pit Droids, Darktrooper, and SA Boba Fett, too!!!  8)

Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Brian on April 18, 2007, 09:59 AM
Kind of a tough one, as I'm looking forward to a lot this year.  This looks like it could be one of the best all-around years for collecting yet (and most expensive).  Anyways, if I look at it from the aspect of "if I could only afford to buy the minimum, what would make the cut", my top two priorities - if I couldn't buy anything else - would be:

VTAC Collection (Hoth Han, Bespin Luke, Endor Leia, Snowtrooper, IG-88, Bossk)
McQuarrie Concept Figures

Other than that, from what we have seen/confirmed, I'm looking forward to these as well:

Jawa w/LIN Droid
Stormtrooper
Luke Skywalker (Jedi)
Boba Fett (Animated)
CZ-4
Hermi Odle

I'm pretty much looking forward to all of the figures this year, particularly the OT ones, and also many of the ones that have been rumored so far (Bespin Han, Smuggler Lando, Yoda w/Kybuck, Roron Corobb, etc.)  Its going to be a good year.
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Brian on May 25, 2007, 04:55 PM
Thought I'd bump this up with all of the great stuff we've seen out of CIV the last couple days.  Really, the basic line as a whole looks outstanding to me, and this might be the first time in a long time where I pick up each of the regular figures.  Aside from the stuff mentioned previously (VTSC, Basic Line through Wave 4), here's a few of the figures/stuff I'm looking forward to for the rest of the year:

Hermie Odle
New Salicious Crumb (w/3PO)
Roron Corobb
Yoda w/Kybuck
Wave 6 - ESB (Han w/torture rack, Smuggler Lando, SA 4-LOM, General McQuarrie, McQuarrie Snowtrooper)
Ewok 2 Pack
A-Wing Pilot
R2-B1
All McQuarrie Figures (regular and exclusive)
Y-Wing (since I missed it earlier times)

Really, I could probably list all of the figures in the basic line (and comic packs), because they all look great to me.  Some of the video game stuff (Darth Malak/Revan) isn't a real big deal to me since I'm not real familiar with them, but I will admit they are nice figures and I'll probably pick them up.  Everything in the regular, basic line looks outstanding for the most part though.

Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Daigo-Bah on May 25, 2007, 06:06 PM
After seeing the wonderful pics, I think Han w/torture rack might be my most anticipated!  The figure itself looks so good that I can use him in multiple dioramas, such as Echo base command center, Bacta chamber, and a couple Bespin dios too.
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Dressel Rebel on May 25, 2007, 06:35 PM
For me it's Hermi Odle.
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: iFett on May 25, 2007, 06:39 PM
For me it's Hermi Odle.

ditto.....I'm kinda wondering if he'll come in two pieces and need to be assembled....I've seen no inkling that Hasbro intends on increasing the bubble size as they did for Ephant Mon.
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Jesse James on May 25, 2007, 07:13 PM
Hermi's pretty high on my list too, but the A-Winger and EWok pack are right behind him.
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: jedi_master_sal on May 26, 2007, 01:41 AM
Gawd there is too many to list.

There will be one in each wave at least. Then once we get that, we'll move on to the next one.

Just WAY to much to whittle it down to one most anticipated.
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Artoo on May 26, 2007, 03:22 PM
Torture Han Solo
Ghost Anakin
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Ben on May 26, 2007, 08:25 PM
Concept Chewbacca. I remember thinking, the first time I saw McQuarrie's art, how awesome and completely impossible it would be to get an action figure of that Chewbacca.
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: David on May 27, 2007, 03:34 PM
Updated List

1) Hermi Odle

Post by: Paul on May 27, 2007, 09:34 PM
It WAS the DST, but we all saw how that turned out....

Then it was the Vintage Snowtrooper..got him and opened him...GREATNESS...

so the next big chance for disappointment, I mean Anticipation...is the Jawa....maybe after this weekend Tycho Celchu.

Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Darth_Anton on May 30, 2007, 09:15 AM
We'll, I've got the Snowtrooper now, so my next most anticipated figure is:

Han w/ torture rack.
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: JACKOFTRADZE on May 30, 2007, 12:34 PM
Word on Han with Rack! I have an extra belt and blaster ready for him if he does not come with one.
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: ruiner on May 30, 2007, 02:56 PM
Anything McQuarrie really - especially Chewie and the Snowtrooper.

I'm really into Fett this year too - they're doing some really cool things with him including the Comic Pack.

Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: David on May 30, 2007, 07:06 PM
Updated List

1) Hermi Odle
2) Concept Obi-Han
3) Roron Corobb
4) Holiday Boba Fett
5) Han Solo w/Torture Rack
6) Spirit Anakin Skywalker
7) Yoda w/Kybuck
8) R2-B1
9) CZ-4
10) Concept Chewbacca


Ya know, after thinking more about it, I have to bump Hermi down to 3rd. Obi-Han is pretty kickass and Roron just seems to be a superior figure to Hermi as well.

I'm also gonna completely remove Spirit Anakin because after seeing better pics of him on Jedi Insider he really looks attrocious. I don't know what I was thinking. That puts 4-LOM at #10.

I'm also looking forward to the FU wave, some figures (female Imp officer and cool stormtrooper) more than certain figures on the above list, but I'm not gonna take the time to list all of them in my list.
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Nicklab on May 30, 2007, 07:50 PM
Here's a top five...

1 - Han Solo - Bespin torture
2 - Tycho Celchu - A-Wing Pilot
3 - Yoda with Kybuck
4 - 4-LOM
5 - Roron Corobb
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Since1978 on May 31, 2007, 12:13 PM
It's been the A-Wing pilot since last year when RS broke the 411 where he was first rumored - he's stayed at the top of the most anticipated list ever since!

'78
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Jeff on May 31, 2007, 12:18 PM
Even after seeing all the new stuff at C-IV, the figures that I am still most looking forward to seeing this year are the EU Pit Droids in the Saga Legends line-up.

I was pretty sure that I was going to have to live without the wave 2 Pit Droid sculpts (from the Holo Sidi and Naboo Guard figure), but after 7 years of waiting, I will finally get to cross them off my list.  I am soooo glad that I never pulled the trigger on them for $75 when I saw them on eBay.   :)
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Jesse James on June 1, 2007, 12:15 AM
Amen to that...  I keep forgetting about the crap in Legends I actually want this year.  If battledroids are actually sturdy, my wallet will pee itself.  If not, that's a lotta moolah saved.

The Pit Droids are must-haves though.  I've wanted those for ages and wouldn't cave on buying them because I was "waiting for the hobby to die down".  Little did I know at the time...  So here we are and now I won't pay more than retail. :)

I'm right there with you Jesse. I'm looking forward to the Battle Droids and Pit Droids. If it is the cheapo plastic on the BDs, then I'll be very disappointed. I'm hoping the Grey Clone (Coruscant) Commander comes with the alternate belt to make him a grunt clone if we choose. Sure I can custom the Kama down to just a belt, but I'd rather not. Heck that little accessory is what's going to make or break me army building it.

Some of the figs I'm really looking forward to are Yoda/Kybuck, Roron Corobb, Han Solo (Bespin Torture Rack), any of the McFigs, and McQuarrie officer himself.

Ive been hard on Pharl but recently I noticed the removable hat. That is great for customizing, but I still hate that they didnt make him SA. The hat definitely makes him a little cooler, but still not the top 10, probably not even the top 20.  :P

I changed my mind:

1. ICMG
2. Han bespin
3. Yoda/Kybuck
4. Roran
5. Hermie

My most anticipated wish list thats not confirmed
1. ACKMENA (PLEASE!)
2. The Black x-wing pilot in ROTJ who says "she's gonna blow!" as sparks fly past his head. He died like a champ! No scream'n
3. The x-wing Pilot that says "there's just too many of them" then gets his orange jumpsuit wear'n ass vaporized in ANH
4. White IG-88
5. The underling Hoth trooper thats having trouble adapting snowspeeders to the cold.
6. Black Bespin Guard standing behind Lando
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: Darth Slothus on June 4, 2007, 10:54 PM
I could have had ICMG in my top 5, unfortunately I get a very bad feeling about Hasbro doing him.
I feel like when they finally do ICMG, he'll be a minimal effort/minimal articulation figure-because they'll be pissed that they had to do something they made a joke out of. For this reason, he is a desired fig but not in my top 5 most anticipated. :(

My Most anticipated figures have now been released:

Han in Torture rack
Hermie!
Title: Re: Most Anticipated Figure So Far
Post by: David on June 11, 2007, 07:15 PM
I opened IG-88 and four out of the six other vintage figs yesterday, and IG-88 may be the best figure I have opened so far not only this year but in a long times. Hes awesome! So detailed, with 17 points of articulation! I wish Hasbro put this much work into every figure.
