This is a tough one....

1.   R2-A6 - I've wanted this one ever since I saw the 6 inch one.
2.   Gragra (Swokes Swokes)
3.   Amidala Return to Naboo
4.   Amidala Pre-Senate
5.   Amidala Post-Senate
6.   Tey How (Neimoidian Controller)
7.   SA Naboo Soldier...  (Jesse's idea)  Head variants with a removable hat.
8.   SA Naboo Royal Security...  with head variants.
9.   SA Generic Naboo Pilot...  With  trench coat & removable helmet
10. SA Naboo Security Captain with head variants.

1.   R2-A6 - I know EE put it out with their exclusive 10 pack, but $80 is a lot to throw down at one time just to get it.
2.   Tey How (Neimoidian Controller)
3.   Amidala Return to Naboo
4.   Amidala Pre-Senate
5.   Amidala Post-Senate
6.   Daultay Dofine
7.   SA Naboo Soldier...  (Jesse's idea)  Head variants with a removable hat.
8.   SA Naboo Royal Security...  with head variants.
9.   SA Obi-Wan
10. SA Qui-Gon.

Surprisingly, there are still several PM figures I want a Wald / Kittster two pack, Mawhonic w/ Salvage Droid,  Quadrinaros/Ratts Tyrell 2 pack, SA Generic Naboo Pilot... (w/  trench coat & removable helmet,  SA Naboo Security Captain with head variants, and Twi'lek Masseuse just to start.

That's one thing I don't think even winning a lottery will help me understand.  Paying  $$$ to have a figure a few days to a few weeks before everyone else just doesn't make since to me considering once they are released everywhere, then everyone has the same figures, some just have them at 4x the price.

Yeah, it would be nice to get them all released at once.  I read on a post somewhere hown the "fabric" and color of the Imp officers don't match when you place them next to each other and since I've had mine stored for a while, I hadn't really noticed.  But if they were done in a set (or at least in a wave like the current Hasbro offerings) I would hope that Hasbro could pull of matching colors and similar sculpts for the uniform.   Obviously, some of the body types (Tarkin & Piett) don't match or are too thin for the same mold on all officers.

Not much different in St. Louis.   I have seen 2 Vaders, 5 or so SA clones... only 1 vader on the table ever.   I haven't seen the vanilla wookie warrior except once.

10. SA Naboo Security Captain with head variants.

I can't believe I filled out 10 without putting in SA Maul, SA Obi & SA Qui-Gon, but they haven't got the head sculpts right yet and I'd really like 7-10 on my list, but I'd take the SA Maul, Obi-Wan & Qui-Gon with decent head sculpts.  Just too difficult to ask for yet another reculpt of those 3.  I also want Ben Quadinaros, but ran out of room and based on the Fan Choice Polls, I'm sure we'll get one anyway.

I would be quite happy with that if Hasbro based the figure on that.   Maybe I should go back and rethink my voting...   Nah...  Hem will make it anyway.

I noticed most people voting for Hem Dazon, which I almost did.   Like I noted in my vote, I would be very concerned with Hasbro's conception of his body from the neck down.   Is there any concept art anywhere or a Dicipher card with the rest of the body?

#1   Bom Vimdin (Advose) 
#2   Chief Chirpa / Lumat
#3   Hermi Odle
#4   CZ-3
#5   Major Bren Derlin
#6   Yarna D'al Gargan
#7   R5-D4
#8   General Veers...  Removable armor &  removable helmet
#9   Moff Jerjerrod
#10 Warok & Romba

R5 was the only resculpt I allowed myself from the modern era.

Close, but no cigar:
Hem Dazon (Arcona) - I'm afraid of what Hasbro would come up with for a body
General Tagge - I like the Imperials, what can I say?
Captain Needa - see above
Torryn Farr - would be awesome with another piece (with a different screen) like with Rieekan or one where she is seated.
Klaatu (Palace)
Sim Aloo (very hard to leave off)

That works perfect for me... how about a running change on Mjr Derlin with new headsculpts including Coach, Norm, & Sam?

Seriously, if they put out your list, I'm not sure I'd need another ESB figure other than a accurately sculpted & painted probot and  army builders, such as Jesse Jame's suggestions:

Super Articulated Hoth Footsoldier...  This is a must considering all previous attempts.  head variants, removable hat, working holster w/sidearm, and rifle.  Head variants would be nice (bearded, clean shaven, and a black dude).

Super Articulated Imperial "Snow" Stormtrooper...  If the Rebs are sporting a SA trooper so should the Empire.  Cloth face-mask, cloth skirt, working holster with blaster rifle.  Just a nice vanilla Snowtrooper with tons of articulation.

Hoth Technician...  Good articulation, removable techs cap (with the ear flaps), tools, etc.  Articulation like VOTC Leia or something could work.

Imperial Commander...  Generic, super or VOTC Leia style articulated figure with removable officer's kepi hat (with head variants).  Black uniform variant and grey uniform variant.  One head has to be Jeremy Bulloch as the Officer in ESB.

You know this would be a lot easier with a top 20 or at worst a top 15 for ROTJ... any chance of giving us a few more choices?  It seems like ROTJ is one of the most overlooked of the OT movies when it comes to unmade figures and figures really needing resculpts.  Hey... as long as I'm asking, why not a top 50 list???  ;D

Hey Scott, what's with the multiple lists on your part?

Multiple list are email votes... (or maybe like me, this is just too hard for a top 10 list - we need to make this a top 15 or even 20 for ROTJ)... but more importantly...

Scott, what's with changing your id and avatar every other week?  Can we have an active topic with all of your previous names & avatars?  It's getting hard to keep up.

Let's see...

 1--Hermi Odle
 2--Evil Yuzzem
 3--Chief Chirpa and Ewok Filler (pick one)
 4--Endor Han w/ removable trenchcoat
 5--Mondo Articulation Biker Scout
 6--Endor Luke w/ removable helmet & poncho
 7--Ewok Celebration Lando
 8--Ewok Celebration Wedge Antilles
 9--Leia in Bouush Disguise
10--"Golden God" Threepio w/throne and bending knees

I can't believe I forgot  "Golden God" Threepio w/throne and bending knees.  I've wante one for years.  There are tons of great ideas here and I third for fourth the idea that this is the hardest one to do so far.  I'll also take multiples on all of Jesse James' ideas for the SA figures.  Can we make an Ewok 6-pack with Chirpa, Wicket, Paploo, Lumat, Romba, Female ewok with wokling???  That would make it a lot easier for some of us!!!   For some reason I can't remember who Umpass Stay is.
