Hasbro, great job with the Target exclusive Ultimate Battle Packs! Great toys at a great value. I especially like the suprise Hoth Rebel gun turret. Please keep the playset-like toys coming!

 

Have these battle packs been successful to the point where it can be an outlet for playsets or environment pieces? Jabba's throne dias could be released this way as well as a Sarlaac pit. Create some Hoth trenches this way, or an Endor forest or tree to hang the cargo net packaged with TAC #46 R2-D2. I know I'm rambling now, but you guys get me so amped up for Star Wars toys!

 

TNI- Will you guys please please please send this one to Hasbro! I would really appreciate it!

[joenubb]

Hey thanks for submitting it to Hasbro. Merry Christmas!

iv seen the new sith evolution pack on the cover of lees toy guide. i have to say i didnt like the sculpt on darth nihilus. are there any plans to release a resculpted darth nihilus on a card with coin like darths revan and malak? if not allow me to get down on my knees and beg now. also id like to add my 2 cents on the topic of more expanded universe figures. theres so much potential there! mara jade, darth revan, darth bane...those are great! fantastic! but what about ulic qel-droma and nomi sunrider? exar kun? DARTH TALON! i could name a thousand names. thank you.

I have read before that the Titanium Series Battlestar Galactica Cylon Centurion was canceled before release late 2006/early 2007. I now see Entertainment Earth has offerings for this figure in a case with 2 other Star Wars figures. Have these been/are these going to be produced?

I am a rogue squadron fan, I have bought the Rogue comic two pack with Hobbie and Baron Fel, I have wedge antilles, and I bought the tycho Celchu figure, there is only one rogue from the movies still missing and that is Wes Janson....he is definitely a fan favorite...any chances?

[CapnJeffro]

A real quick and easy question (I hope.) In reference to the new Clone Wars animated series figures we have seen - do they all have knee articulation? Some are in question such as Anakin and Obi-Wan (although due to their tunics may be useless anyways), but mostly the Battle Droid. He seems to have elbow articulation and is a nice sculpt. If he had knee articulation he would be pretty darn complete.

Thank You, Hasbro, for the upcoming Fen Shysa/Tobbi Dala comic pack pieces! These figures are a dream come true!

 

Now how about Sharad Hett (Dark Horse), Jaxxon (Marvel), and Keral Longknife (Marvel)?

Hi Hasbro,

 

With as popular as "Jabba's Palace" themed waves seem to be, is there any possibility we'll see a resculpt of Yak Face in the next year or so? Thanks.

(thanks to Jedi Insider too!)

Question 1: The last two waves (1 and 2 '08) of TAC both came with stands instead of coins, including some repacks from earlier TAC waves. Will this trend of stand pack ins continue or will the Build-a-Droid pieces take their places much as the coins did in 2007?

 

Question 2: Concerning the rest of The Force Unleashed product coming out. When will we see the Stormtrooper Commando come to stores and will it be an exclusive of some type. It has been pictured for quite some time, but most of TFU items are currently out and no more word of his release. Also, when will we see TFU Wal-Mart 3-pack exclusives be released?

 

**Both questions were asked and answered on other sites this week. No need to take up question slots for them.

Since we are getting alot of Rebel pilots, what are the chances of a new Porkins?

 

Will there be any super articulated versions of EPII Jedis made? So many were made preposed especially the female Jedis.

Hasbro, first off, let me express how excited I am for the gigantic Millenium Falcon recently revealed online. I'll definitely be getting one. My question is in regards to the Droid Factory 2 packs that we first saw at ToyFair. With the Hoth Han Solo figure is R-3PO who was first released in 2004.

 

Will the new R-3PO figure feature the silver/white highlights that were absent in this toys previous release?

 

Thanks and keep up the great work!

 

Thanks Jedi Insider too!

[SnTrooper]

Actually R-3PO doesn't have those silver highlights. The picture that they used for the packaging back in 2004 was of a droid from the senate scene in The Phantom Menace.

[Blackmada]

How about a Phantom Menace Senate Guard made out of the Revenge Of the Sith Senate Guard/Royal Guard Body?

[joenubb]

Actually R-3PO doesn't have those silver highlights. The picture that they used for the packaging back in 2004 was of a droid from the senate scene in The Phantom Menace.

 

No kidding, I didn't realize that. Never mind my question then.

 

Okay, here's a new question for Hasbro:

 

Hasbro, will you guys please make a wicked sweet Jabba's Palace toy and include an all new Yakface action figure. Thanks Hasbro!

[monkeycrumb]

To Hasbro:

 

Given that the new SW Legacy Wave 1 has both Jabba's Palace characters AND an Ewok in the wave, does that mean you've relaxed the scene specific format you've adhered to for awhile? I'm excited by this possibility due to the fact that now that the Star Wars universe has expanded so greatly that we might see any given movie represented only once or so each year, that lessens the possibilities of more fan-requested figures. So while we might see an ESB wave once a year for example, it would take too long to get more requested characters from different scenes if one year represented Hoth, another Bespin, etc. While I still like the waves themed by movie, I hope to see character selection come from the entire movie, not just per scene.

 

In the Evolutions format, is it possible to see some related to the Aliens of Star Wars? Such as the Cantina Aliens, or Jabba's Palace And Skiff Guards? This would be a great way to get more aliens to the fans and get some obscure aliens packed in with more recognizable ones!
