Why that over the Council chair? Though if they did a council throne, I'd want accurate chairs for the Jedi Council members we already have.
If they sell Yoda without the chair, I could see something similar to these Cantina sets with chair 2 packs for the council, if they opt to even go there. Several of the council chairs were the same so you wouldn't have to make 12 different ones, just a couple sets and those wanting all 12 could just buy multiples.

There have been requests for 1:6 Accessory Packs since the line began years ago, to no avail so far. The closest we've come is the Sith Probe Droid Set, and that was just an obvious money-grab.

Sadly it seems that (even though fans clamor for them) the accessory packs and environments have been a tough sell.
I've bought about half of them... but for me the price and display space required for them usually just don't equal a purchase.

But the kind of Accessory Packs we're referring to are not the (over-priced) environments. That be things like actual accessories: weapons, stormtrooper utility belts, various clothing items, etc. I think people would be all over those (particularly customizers) if they aren't egregiously priced.

Ah, sorry I misread the post. Yeah, I'd be down for that... and agree collectors would probably be into them as well. That would be the best use of the expansion pack idea.

This is true, but Sideshow would have to figure out pricing. $89 for a polystone chair isn't gonna cut it. Not sure I'd even pay $50 a piece.
I can't overstate how awesome SSC is for including the Kenner ST blaster. They rock!
I have to admit I may take this figure and put him in a blue one-piece, just to get the Kenner look. 1:6 Kenner-esque figures of Greedo, Snaggletooth, Walrusman and Hammerhead would delight me.

True, considering you'd need 12 for an entire set. Even at $50 ea that'd be $600 + shipping.
NO. WAY.

I can honestly say I have zero interest in a Jedi Council Chair. Jedi shouldn't be sitting, they need to be out kicking ass.
Maybe if they'd been a bit more active they wouldn't have gotten gunned down so easy by Clones

Yeah, the Jedi Cardio Program indeed left much to be desired.

BTW, not sure if its been mentioned yet... but Hammerhead is now at a waitlist. Glad to see love for this oddball character; here's hoping for more non-standard body aliens

Waitlist for a SDCC product? I guess they won't be taking any pre-orders on the floor whatsoever afterall. Sucks for those who are used to that but don't know about Sideshow's entirely new approach to SDCC.
But
for Hammerhead!!!

That should have been the exclusive. Retro Kenner outfit. Not some staff.

Hadn't thought about that, but I would imagine most got to the con are also watching Sideshow's site.
I'm guessing that didn't happen because the upper legs and arms of the figure are just the standard body. I would have loved for this to be the exclusive, but can understand not going that route due to the extra work.

Might want to put that plan on hold until you find out what the body underneath looks like.

You can see hints of the underlying body in some of the shots... from the knees up to the neck and elbows its a pro body.
