Endor Rebel Troopers

[Alice Adrenochrome]

Ehhh....


EEEEKSSS please.

Well I will be buy all of them just because well I buy one of everything. I do hope one is Orrimaarko "Prune Face". It would really give people a reason to buy more than one. It would only require just a little adjustment to the standard uniform. You dont think we will get something in the newsletter tonight. I just hope all 3 dont have an exclusive edition.

You dont think we will get something in the newsletter tonight.

I don't think so. Not tonight.

 

[jason2885]

I don't think so. Not tonight.

I cant believe I did that but anyway maybe tomorrow night especially if this gets out. I would love for them to release two of them as regulars and then one as a exclusive. It would also be cool if you could buy all three as a packaged deal. So has anyone confirmed this.
You dont think it could be a Rebel Fleet Trooper Hoth Soldier and a Endor soldier do you. That would be awesome.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I believe Aerosmith (who posted the news) said they all had the same helmet... so it definitely isn't a mixed bag of various rebels.

 

[jason2885]

Ahh well but i really wouldnt mind having this guy. It would give some variety to the line.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yeah, I'd buy him. Don't know why, but I would.

 

[carbo-fation]

That sounds good, but $60 for no-name figure sounds a bit expensive, especially if they're going to release three different versions.

 

[galactiboy]

I agree, if it was say $80-$100 for a 3-pack that'd be okay, but a total of $180 (not to mention shipping) for no-name characters isn't too enticing for me. Also, I really think the Endor troopers are pretty low on the totem of military interest.

 

[Xander]

Sounds like 3 passes for me...BUT if they were Hoth Troops that might be a different story!:chew

 

[jason2885]

I wouldnt mind them releasing three as a set if they allowed us to order all three at the same time for say $140. But I will still get them not matter the price. Could this mean a Endor Luke is a convention exclusive this year. or could a Chewie be coming too.

Also I guess with three Endor troopers this pretty much guarantees us eventually getting 3 different colored pauldrons for the Sandroopers (orange, black, and white)

 

[abstractharmony]

Hmmm.....

No confirmed information yet. Is it April 1st already?

I can't see SSC going with this option. 3 of the yearly slots for anonymous rebel soldiers? I think too many people would pass and that could have a severe impact on the profitability of the line and may cause a lot of fold to re-think the kudos they are giving to this line.

However, I could be wrong.

 

[darthviper107]

You know, if they did announce this as the next figure--the figure after that would be a Sith



I want Vader.

 

[Coheteboy]

You know how they'd get me to buy all three? But 2 get one free for the initial orders only. That's the exclusive.

 

[IrishJedi]

I really hope this is not true. For one, I find the Endor Rebel Troopers to be, by far, the least interesting of ANY of the possible trooper figures.

Add to that the odd amount of ROTJ figures announced for a year that should be about ANH and I just don't get it.

So, I hope this is just a (false) rumor. If not, easy PASS for me... the first of the line. And for $60 a piece??? GET OUT OF TOWN!

 

[PosterBoyKelly]

I can only see $60 each if they come with some killer weapons and junk, and LOTS of them! Anyway, still a big pass, Stormtroopers are it for my army, none else.

No clones?? And surely you'll be down for other Stormtrooper variations, like Sandtroopers, Snowtroopers and Scout Troopers, right?

Wow, it took a wopping 19 post for someone to say "...... but I'd rather see so and so instead"

That's right, I said it. And I'm sure that I'm not alone either.

 

[IrishJedi]

Not at all. There are at least a dozen different TROOPER figures I'd rather see before these guys... to say nothing of the dozens and dozens of other characters. Just a completely puzzling decision by SSC, if true.

And while there are many in here who say they'd be cool with these this soon (and good for them, seriously) I would have to think even most of them would admit that there are tons of other characters Sideshow could/should be doing first... especially in a year that should be more about A NEW HOPE and not this ROTJ love fest.

This would be so baffling to me that I won't believe it until I see it in SWI for myself, and then I probably still won't believe it.

Definitely not alone. If they devote 3 figure spots to Endor Rebel Troopers I will be VERY disappointed.
