I wouldn't go by any timeline they give us. Delays, delays, delays. Let's go just by one announcement at a time.
... HT wants to focus on the main cast in the SW universe, starting with roughly 3 or 4 characters a year. Also, we plan to make almost all of them DX.
Bet Anakin Skywalker is next, and I don't mean Sebastian Shaw.
You mean that's at least that much?
They have to put the specs up this week. Colossal failure if they don't with the saga on blu.
Not necessarily, we have no clue how much the first DX will cost let alone how much they will be a year from now. DXs usually cost about $200 although many are speculating more. Who knows though, we might get a DX under that cost or with figures like Obi-Wan for example since he only appeared really one way we might not get another HS or even as many items of clothing. So that one might actually come in relatively cheap in comparison.
What makes you so sure? For all we know LFL are holding them back.
I can guarantee no DX will be within the realm of Sideshow's prices. Every single one will be over $200. That's just due to the licensing contract. No way Sideshow would let Hot Toys do Star Wars at a price comparable to theirs. People would just stop buying Sideshow's figures. . . if they haven't already. I have a sneaking suspicion Sideshow is starting to feel the pinch right now.
I was wondering about this also. Now that Hot Toys has the Star Wars license no matter how good or in demand a Star Wars figure is there is no way that Sideshow can match the quality of a Hot Toys. So if someone wanted to own the best representation of a character why would they buy the Sideshow version when the Hot Toys version will beat it? look at the Bespin Luke it's light years better than the Sideshow version.
Shoot if Hot Toys will only do figures already released by Sideshow that means no HT movie Padme.
A little late to the party but 3 - 4 per year
OT: Luke, Han, Leia, Chewie, Ben, Lando, Yoda, Vader and Emperor
PT: Anakin (ROTS). Obi Wan (ROTS), Dooku
Time to clear out more shelf space....
