I didn't get a chance to post on this over the weekend, but I'll echo a lot of the thoughts here already. I'm disappointed with the results too. I guess it doesn't effect me that much because I'm a primarily a loose collector, and I can just skip these, but its just disappointing that some other figures didn't make it out again - particularly EB Chewie. I guess I'm a little tired of clonetroopers at this point too, particularly "non movie" ones. I can understand Neyo, and I might even pick another one up to display with my other clones and leave the other one on his bike. Zev I can understand as well. I picked up the Snowspeeder, but I'd maybe get another. Its just too bad each one of these Fan's Choice polls ends up being so prequel/clone/EU heavy every time. In a way its a little surprising since many of the clones are starting to pegwarm a bit, and since the overall opinions of the Saga are usually how the OT is much more beloved than the PT (particularly the first two). It doesn't seem to matter when it comes to the figures apparently.
So overall I think the results could be worse, at least from my perspective, but EB Chewie not being on there is really a shame. People take for granted what may be the finest "main character" sculpt in the modern line there I think, and the kind of figure that should see steady re-release at retail (along with VOTC Han). That sucks.
That is what I think bugs me the most. We occasionally see repacks of some of the better prequel figures (Pilot Obi, Clones, and what appears to be Evo Anakin next year), but for the most part that hasn't happened with many of the OT stuff (although Battle Packs are starting to cover that, and this year has been better). I guess I'd like to see figures like VOTC Han, VOTC/EB Chewie, VTSC X-Wing Luke, etc. repacked now and then in the line. We're starting to see it more (Fett, Biker Scout), and I hope that continues. Especially in a line called "Saga Legends", to me Han and Chewie are more "legendary" to Star Wars than "Covert Ops Shadow Trooper that never appeared in any movies"
. But, as others have said, great for those who voted for those clones. Hopefully we'll see some of the other favorites released elsewhere. I was kind of surprised Ephant Mon didn't win a slot too. I mean, I have one, but it just seemed like a popular "stick it to them" choice since he's such a large figure.
