Re: 1/6 Hot Toys – MMS - Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2: Yondu Collectible Figure
Agreed. Still with secondary characters seeming to sell better I With Hot Toys doing more figures from the prequel trilogy I wonder if they'll make a general Grievous.

I am full of hopes for a Hot Toys Grievous, and I personally think it would sell well, but idk for sure.
I can think of a possibility of them maybe not wanting to if ultron didn’t sell well, but that might have nothing to do with it at all.
And it’s interesting they jumped from a wide array of Revenge of the Sith to Attack of the Clones. They might hit up Phantom Menace next for all we know.
I think with the popularity of Skywalker, Kenobi, and now Dooku, it also puts the prospects of a 1/4 RoTS Vader back into perspective.
It will also be interesting to see if they go for battle droids and clones. Unfortunately I don’t see droids selling as well as clones, and it’s not like they have made a big effort to make droid toys in the past. So maybe sideshow and them can pump out some stuff together. Sideshow goes for the droids and rereleases a Animiated Clone line again, while hot toys takes the movie clones and Jedi and Sith from that era.
Padme seems a wild card, but I would like to see the AotC version. I think if the prequels keep selling well they will keep exploring that era over the next few years.
And since this is a Marvel thread, I think we are going to be pretty lucky if they keep going in as well as they have been on the new marvel characters coming out. Though it will be interesting to see how they handle the loss of Iron Man if/when it happens. Maybe we will get Iron Heart or something, but I feel the Stark Armor has been a very good thing for themselves and the Asian market.
We are certainly at a interesting juncture for where their production lines and focuses will be over the immediate next few years. Imo.
