I'm nearly certain that's the next HT SW figure: Darth Maul
He needs re-doing and he's the PT's "Boba Fett". Sideshow announced a new Vader in 2012 so that's not an option for HT to go with Bespin Luke.
I'd rather see R2 or 3PO from HT.... but my gut says Darth Maul.

Even though Darth Maul would be a no-brainer and probably will get one I still think they'll go after Anakin Skywalker from ROTS next. I have a feeling that despite everything we've read about Howards jonsin' for the OT, we'll see them jump back and forth from both the PT and the OT probably one right after the other.
That would be the exact move Sideshow made in 2005: Luke, then Anakin.
I'm not feeling Anakin. I'd pass if that's who comes along. If they're not ready for droids and wookiees, then a villain (a true villain) feels like it would be next.

That's an awesome description!!! I've never heard anyone else say this, but it completely sums up my fascination with the character. The OT has Boba, and the PT has Maul for cult status, short lived character, that says almost zero lines.

I'd get both as long as they're clear improvements over the current Sideshow and Medicom offerings, and it won't even be that hard to top them either.
I would expect these two figures to be at the normal awesome HT level.

Weird thing about the PT is they went with one "cool bad guy" per film and then killed them off.
TPM- Maul
AOTC- Jango
ROTS- Grievous
At least Boba originally made it through 2 films (3 if you count the silly Jabba scene in ANH).
That would make some sense if the Indy figure looked like Ford.
Bite your tounge HT makes no mistakes , and there figures look more like the actor then the real person ever did.

I don't need any Hot Toys prequel figures.

Even though I'm not a huge Anakin fan, I'd still probably buy a DX version from ROTS. That is a Sideshow figure that was pretty fugly when it came out and has definitely not aged well.
Can't say I'd be thrilled about dropping $200 on Anakin, but if it looked like him and came with all the bells and whistles I'd be down.
