The first installment of Hasbro's new weekly QnA is due to be posted on their website today!
As a preview, listed below are the questions that we (The JD Staff) submitted last Friday, along with the answers from Hasbro!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Are you planning to do more of the Evolutions Sets? If so, when? If not, why? They seemed to sell very well and were popular with both kids and collectors alike - we'd love to see more!** In a movie year, Evolutions was a way for us to include figures with premium articulation in our line. This year, we're doing more of this style figure in the basic assortment, so we did not see the need for a separate line.
2. Are you planning any more of the Vintage/Premium Figures? If so, when?** Not in 2006, but we're looking at the potential for another wave for 2007.
3. What are the chances of one more Animated Clone Wars Wave (or box set)? We still need to get C-3PO, R2-D2, Padme (Ilum Snow Gear), and Darth Sidious to round out our sets!** Characters in Clone Wars are great - and we're looking at ways of getting more of them in the line for 2007. However any we do will be in "realistic" styling rather than animated. We’ve done some polling with fans, and overall the realistic style is preferred.
