The reason i think they are doing this is because they are comming to the realization that they have -by and large-exhuasted the PT hero types. Yes they could carry on tweaking existing sculpts -but surely these realistic CW TV types will sell just as well?

I expect these to basically replace the McQaurrie line -one a wave- and think they will reveal them at ToyFair.

As long as these take away slots from PT Heroes i'm okay with it -if it's OT/PT backgrounders ...no thankyou!

Tarkin would be great -though one of the rumour guys posted something about a delay to 2012.
Bespin Han -yes please!
Also i'd love to see something leftfield like Tantive Fleet Trooper or Bom v.

Anyway not long till we find out -line up reveal with pics in next Q and A.

Lovely.

I can see a few "Tastefull" alterations to the card art of Gam Guard and Woof -tolerable though.

Can't wait for these -A+

Just to add another ... Ratts Tyrell.

So the panel indicates ROTJ wave is slated for January?!!!

I thought it was following ROTS.

Also ROTJ wave five!!

Curious.

Late to post so sorry in advance.

Greedo-possibly my favourite figure when i was a nipper.
Then the VHS came out and -although he was still my favourite- damn was he ever inaccurate!

Looks very kitch now -but still somewhat cool.

As for new ones?  I don't think we are there yet. Yes we have the greatly posable SVC version -but his biker/spacer suit is totally the wrong colour -far to deep a shade. There is of course the vest and i think the various versions of the commtech sculpt have a better representation of the tragi-comic rodian.

No not there yet.

But considering how many sculpts this guy has already got -it may be the end of the line.

Fairly low on Aliens/Never before sculpted candidates.

But for those who wanted them -enjoy!


Pretty sure The New Fleet Trooper is Comming in a spring 2011 wave -maybe a preview at Celebration?
