I am very excited about Count Dooku. He has not been in the line in a long time, and I think that the updates look good. Having him on a TVC card is really cool, and I like the artwork. And I'm hoping that Dooku sells well, because if he does I hope that would motivate Hasbro to take on him from Tales of the Jedi. One of those 2-packs with Jedi Master Dooku and Yaddle would be tremendous!
I guess I'd agree that at least Dooku is the most interesting thing out of what the showed... but (and I know I'm an outlier here compared to the whole of people who collect this stuff) I have no fewer than 13 Dooku figures already.
I don't need 14th when there are so many other characters who need to be made... no matter how nice it looks.
I'm with you Rob. I get it if they're just cashing checks with easy kitbashes, repaints, photo-real paintjob upgrades, etc. Lazy cash grab.
For the life of me I can't understand why they would devote new sculpting resources to a *insert figure here* that we've already got piles of like Dooku. If they're going to do a new sculpt, why wouldn't they do something new, and relevant in this decade? Something new from Andor? Something new from Rogue One? Something new from the sequel trilogy?
I love our rank order wishlist stuff, but if I'm being honest, I don't need another figure from the OT or PT. Even an all new one. Ever.
I'm probably an outlier too with you Rob. Just give me something all new. Not a new version of something I already have. Something actually all new.
