Disney by the end of the year:

The Mouse is known for nothing if not the stringency of their pursuit of copyright sanctity. One day soon they'll pry open the front doors at Mars Toys, roll a few thermal detonators in and thatll be that.

Combine the Mouse and Harrison Ford, and I dont even know what might happen next. I'd be watching for a Stealth bomber overflight at Mars but Im a coward.

And still no figures. This show is way too good for Disney to handle. When I watch it I just pretend I’m watching HBO.

Happy to wait until season 2 for a lot of characters, but I feel there are certain characters that won’t change their look much at all. They could easily do the likes of B2, Dedra + Death Troopers, and Two Tubes right now. Definitely more to come from characters like Luthen, so I understand the wait there. The likes of Cassian, Saw Gerrera, and Mon Mothma I’d prefer in their RO look.

Nice! Congrats to the deserved show.
While I really wanted a more gritty season 1 Andor with Bryr Pistol and Nemik's manifesto, like you at this point, and knowing the S2 finally will sync-up with the start of R1, I'd be happy if we do get Andor, Mothma, and Guerrera in their R1 looks.
As for Luthen, not sure where his fate lies, or what other epic scene (sacrifice?) he'll still have, which might yet give us a definitive look.
But yeah those four (and if they are revisiting any of Guerreras partisans, assuming they'll play a bigger role S2) seem like the essentials.

... “Some of its core ingredients are secrecy and paranoia and lack of trust and betrayal. So, how difficult is it to build a revolution?” questions Gilroy. “And what happens to the original gangsters, as other people get involved?”

“the last three days before Rogue One”. And with a finite end point in view, no punches are being pulled. “The risks this season will take are very different,” promises Luna. In what way? “In every way,” says Gilroy. “... This is 1,500 pages of the most dynamic material in these people’s lives to deal with. We got it right the first time, and you don’t want to let your foot off the gas.”

While I'm enjoying the more Saturday morning cartoonish FavrOnivese. ^This is the SW I'm looking forward to most.

Just in case he turns out to be a Jedi or something, I’ll be annoyed I don’t have the obvious accessory I think I’d risk buying a season 1 version as I love that character so much. Then again the figure probably wouldn’t come out until season 2 airs

Yeah I don't think so, the whole point of Gilroy's POV seems to be we are watching the other side of the coin, characters who aren't saved by a supernatural force, mystic weapons or legendary wizards, to intentionally emphasize the opposite. Any catalysis for hope, or change, is coming from those who have none of that, and just have their own grit to survive on, or die trying (as we know).

I get where you’re coming from, and I don’t need him to be a Jedi, I’m just looking at it from a man baby wanting cool toy point of view

Gilroy left the show yesterday over the writers’ strike, so hopefully KK doesn’t go in there and insert Grogu or something

It’s funny what you said about Filoni and the two different styles of Star Wars working at the same time. I was thinking last night that Andor reminds me of a good Expanded Universe novel, and Mando season 1 and 2 (and other Filoni stuff) reminds me of the old Dark Horse comics. You need both, as long as they’re both well written.

On a separate note I’d love Gilroy to tackle the Old Republic.

I'd love Mars Toys to tackle Baze Malbus to round out the core Rogue One team with a Hot Toys Cassian for S2 Andor.

Given Disney's track record. Rogue One is still top of the list for me.

Who else would be interested in a Baze ?

 

[Tee-Kay]

Baze, much like Cassian, is on my want list. With Hot Toys seemingly going for more complete teams lately, i'm crossing fingers they'll revisit Rogue One for its 10th anniversary.

Man don't go there. Rogue One released Dec 2016. Let's say 2017 + 10 = 2027 plus 2 year wait = 2029 !!

Next year is long enough for a preorder start date !

I don't see hot Toys going for a random Baze PO unless there's a good reason to do so. Anniversary lines seem to be trending lately. If it ever comes out, my bet is on a 2026 PO. Cassian though, it could well go up for PO next year as report say

Spoiler

last three episodes of Andor season 2 will take place a few days prior to the event of the movie.

From Rogue One specifically (not including Andor) Baze and Bodhi for me for rounding out the team.

Thankfully the competent Gilroy, who knows exactly where the show is going finished and turned everything in before the strike. If the show runner and directors are in sync with what Gilroy left on the page, shouldn't be allot of room for the Disney Story Group to reinvent the series focus or trajectory.

Andor Showrunner Tony Gilroy Finished Final Star Wars Script Before WGA Strike

https://screenrant.com/andor-star-wars-script-finished-wga-strike/

On a separate note I’d love Gilroy to tackle the Old Republic.

I think Gilroy is pretty clearly invested in one solid SWU story to explore; Getting Andor, Mothma, and Guerrera, to where we find them in R1, and how Luthen affected it all, towards defining the Rebellion, and this is it, we're lucky to have it.

“The risks this season will take are very different,” promises Luna. In what way? “In every way,” says Gilroy. “Look, man, I’m not trying to make a career here; if anything I’m on the downhill side of a long career. But this is an opportunity. This is 1,500 pages of the most dynamic material in these people’s lives to deal with. We got it right the first time, and you don’t want to let your foot off the gas.” - https://www.empireonline.com/tv/new...-cover-three-days-before-rogue-one-exclusive/

I was so interested in Baze that when it became apparent that he wasn't being made, I sold off my other Rogue One figures. I occasionally regret it, but for the most part that omission ruined the hero crew for me, along with not making Cassian...

Damn that's a pity. I loved Rogue One so much that the figures I could get were always keepers.

If they do nothing for Andor S2 people will riot !

Oh for sure, I'd take Bodhi as well, but I guess while I'm optimistic I know Bodhi would be the longest shot of all.

If I had the choice I'd probably take Saw and Two Tubes before Bodhi though I guess. However I'd definitely make room for all if given the chance !

If it's one thing that's clear, it that the more content Disney makes the more Rogue One cements it's position at the top for me.

Ah you see I counted Saw and Tubes for Andor, I meant those characters specific to Rogue One. Bodhi always feels a bit under appreciated. He was also the least developed character of the crew, so I kind of understand. I’d like to see a little more of his relationship with Galen in Andor. Not sure whether we’ll see those characters, but a little tie-in in the last few episodes would be nice.

Rogue One definitely up there. After recently re-watching Andor again and immediately following it up with Rogue One I put those two about level now. Rogue One is the visual spectacle and Andor is the character development. The biggest compliment I can pay them both is they don’t feel like Disney, Kathleen Kennedy must’ve been at a Force is Female convention or something while those were being filmed.

Tony Gilroy came in late to polish the Rogue One script and get the film finished. Disney liked him so much they hired him again to run Andor. I'm gutted he's basically finished now because his scripts are already handed in for s2 and he is an overseeing role now thanks to that bloody strike.

Yep, pretty sure without him we wouldn't have gotten that epic Vader hall scene. But I still credit Gareth Edwards for doing all the rest. He was probably under a lot of pressure from Kennedy etc. Anyway turned out well in the end.

Saw Gererra and Two Tubes would look absolutely epic on the shelf I reckon. I could pretty much make a full shelf with all of them.
