Series 6

[Scott]

That is awesome news!  It sort of sucks they are announcing them early, it was always sort of fun to see who they were going to make next

Here's a quick photo

Well, I am excited about the officer and Tarkin, but a Royal guard would have been light years ahead of a near look-alike rebel pilot. Dang, I was really looking forward to the frenzy of finding out the chases as people were ripping into their cases.
My bricky death star diorama will be getting loads of props in just a couple of months....

Thanks for the pic   Like Scott, not liking the release of the information early.  Maybe they're just minor chase figures?

Interesting picture, Medicom does not really release what the chase figures are early. We usually wait are until the initial day of release whether it be eBay or Yahoo Japan or other sources. That's the way it's been from the beginning of these series.

Could Tarkin & the Imperial Commander possiably be for a future release?

[Scott]

I am almost positive they are Series 6, even chase figures need to get LFL approval, LFL didn't know the secrecy usually involved and passed on the shots to the Insider.  I like all three, even if they are a bit on the boring side

[Jeff]

WOW.

I guess most people thought those were going to be the most likely chases (I know that I had already guessed Wedge and Tarkin), but dang it is strange to see them pop up so soon.

This announcement, while very cool, just made Kubrick Series 6 release day a whole lot more boring...

  A mention on the front page, thats actually pretty awesome. Thanks for the mention. 

Anyway, I think the whole series 6 is pretty boring in general, but i am still looking forward to them all.

Well if these are the chase figures then I guess the fun of waiting & finding out when the time comes is gone.

Great pic!
I don`t mind knowing early. We get all frenzied up and usually know before we get them
in hand anyway, thanks to eBay, Yahoo Japan, Slave 1 and other sites. Now to nail
down the ratios and box placement (Simon usually steps up for this, which is awesome!)

I'm surprised so many of you are bummed to get the Series 6 chase news so soon...  Hell, the more Kubrick news on upcoming/chase releases, the better, as far as I'm concerned!  I guess the element of surprise waiting 'til the day of release is diminished, but it was cool getting a peek at three new SW Kubrick figures in here today (thanks Jayson!).

Bummer to see the chase figures continue to be important secondary characters, as well as popular army builders now.    I long for the days of different colored gauntlets or varying band instruments.  Much less challenging/expensive to nab the chases back then.

I can only hope that a couple of these are more along the lines of the Han/Luke Stormie chases, rather than the Logray/Blue Snag/Ponda chases of late.

Great figures though, as always.  I definitely dig the 3 new choices, though including them in the regular Series 7 would've obviously been much more preferred.  Oh well, I didn't really need my wife anyway...

And since they kept all of the chase figures consistent with the "A New Hope" theme, maybe the December series will be ESB- snowtroopers, glorious blocky snowtroopers...

[Matt Brand]

That is great. Tarkin and Wedge rock! I was hoping for a distinct figure for the 3rd chase...Imperial Commander is an awful lot like the Tarkin figure. But oh well, those are some interesting choices to say the least.

That would be AWSOME! I can`t wait for snowtroopers and hoth rebels.
Then next year, there has to be a Jabba wave. Gam. Guard, leia bousch, lando skiff, maybe a bar-too-d2 (heart attack if it had the pop up saber!).

[Madcow]

I like all three, even if they are a bit on the boring side

Agreed. I would like the Tarkin but watch that be the uncommon one...
