Wave 2 already exists, its the octupara gree and 41st wave

[Ryan]

Wave 2 already exists, its the octupara gree and 41st wave

No it doesn't... that is Wave 1.

[Jeff]

Wave 2 already exists, its the octupara gree and 41st wave

I thought Wave 2 was going to be the Force Unleashed wave?  Or will that be 2008 Wave 3?   

[CHEWIE]

Nice topic.  I like to speculate too... all I used to do was speculate and make wish lists... those days wer e fun.   

Good wave ideas there too by the way Reid, but I'd have to nix the idea of a full TPM wave... the film just isn't popular enough to warrant a wave of those figures on their own.  So, I'll take your very nice list and tweak it a bit if you don't mind...

VERY GOOD LIST THOUGH REID, I'd still buy everything that you mentioned.  Keep making lists like this, perhaps a new Deluxe idea list?

 

[Greedo The Green Menace]

I wonder what the odds are of them including more cool large accessories is in 08. Even if they cut back, it'd be nice to see some nice diorama fodder continue to be released. Accurately scaled Cantina tables would be awesome.

[Matt R.]

I believe that next year will probably mostly Prequel based waves to tie in with the new Clone Wars Line. I only see about 3 waves of OT next year from each film + The 1 Vintage wave.
