I hope you are right but I don't share your optimism. I really think the most likely RO new release will be imperial Jyn as a toy fair exclusive. And I think she will come before stormtrooper han:mad:

Just think it's too early for all the pessimism perhaps. Only reason I say that is we still have Celebration and SDCC, and they likely can't show anything from Episode 8 until Force Friday in September, so that to me leaves OT and Rogue One as possibilities (plus other figures that are from Episode 8 that they can release/reveal and say are from Episode 7--like R2, 3PO, and maybe Poe? :lol). Last year leading up to and at SDCC they were still revealing some Episode 7 figures.
 
I meant dropping balls by not doing certain characters, but that's from a certain point of view, as Obi-Wan might say, because they obviously make a lot of characters that people do want (like a hundred colour variations of Iron Man, and so on).

Yeah, that too...they live 'in a bubble' because they can afford to.

But from a business standpoint they're obviously doing something right.

Thing is we are still waiting for HT to make good on some of the figures they threatened to make at those toy shows last year. Snowtrooper commander, sandtrooper sergeant, death star crew, gonks, 1/4 stuff, etc. Maybe some of this still happens but what is this the 2-3 year plan now? Buried behind an onslaught of figures from suicide squad which happens to be one of the WORST movies I have ever had the misfortune of sitting through. I just don't know what to expect with the toy fairs this year. Do they show the same stuff they didn't make last year, or do they move on with a bunch of new stuff and pretend last year's stuff never existed? :dunno

Hot Toys totally dropped the ball on Krennic, Cassian and Tarkin. They are living in a bubble and totally out of touch.

I'm still holding out hope that the Cassian and Krennic Cosbabies mean we'll see them in 1/6 scale. And I actually think that Imperial Jyn is more iconic than ST Han. Mostly because her disguise was so synonymous with the marketing and hype leading up to the movie while Han's ST disguise was more integrated in the on screen group activities. Plus Han has at the minimum four other outfits *more* iconic than ST disguise.

Sure you could just tell him the quality of any future movies to save him watching any more!

Just Star Wars. It's not that hard to predict, even without a black magic and sacrifice of lambs.

You guys post funny gifs but just wait until all those who agree with me come to my defense. Right guys?

*crickets chirping*

Guys!?

Dang it.
[emoji38] It's not a crime to have bad taste khev; take Futurion for example, he likes suicide squad. I kid:)

Seriously though I do agree that jyn in the imperial giddup looks cool enough. But the look appears in one of the most ridiculous screen grabs in the history of SW pictured below. They look like a couple of horribly out of place undercover vice cops soon to get their heads blown off.

Is Miss Erso so dismissable, even in her own thread? Damn. :lol

Harrison Ford as Han Solo is literally my favorite film character of all time but I need to have my head examined for wanting to see an Imperial Jyn figure before Imperial Han? Even though I acknowledge that he has no less than four *other* outfits (actually six now that I think of it) that are more iconic than Jyn's? You guys are a tough crowd. ;)

If there's enough articulation with the clothing on those seated, I would like to display my Rogue One setup exactly like this. Here's hoping they make Cassian & Bohdi.
