It'd be really easy to do.

When (yes, when) they come out with a RotS Obi-Wan, all they'd need to do is take the existing Anakin figure and the inevitable Obi-Wan, and dirty up the outfits a bit. Perhaps merely repaint the Anakin sculpt to look a bit more "Sith-like" and throw in some Mustafar diorama bases for each, and they'd probably consider it different enough from the single offerings of the characters, which would be the clean versions.

If they do that they better announce it before hand.. I’d be really annoyed if I bought this guy and they announce that after. And you know.. one could wait.. but what if this sells out and that doesn’t come to pass? You’d miss out and you know evilbay prices on this would be sky high in that case.

I wouldn't buy it but it would probably sell three times as well as Rose.

I do hope they do a ROTS Obi-Wan, but I'm very skeptical of HT doing him until I see it up for pre-order. There have been many times we were shown prototypes at conventions that never made it to pre order. So to say when they come out with a ROTS Obi-Wan is a bit presumptuous. Don't get me wrong, I hope you are right, but I wouldn't get my hopes up until I see it up for pre-order.

I don't even trust announcements anymore as there have been plenty of times figures were announced and never went to pre-order.

Of course. Up for PO, or it never happened.
 
Hey wasn't Anakins outfit the same in E2 as E3?
Here were are thinking HT will do a Sith version but they are just sly enough to just retool with and E2 head-sculpt for an ATOC version.

i would just love to have double pack young padawan Anakin - Padme (white battle outfit) in AOTC rather than "Sith eyes" Anakin stand alone version

ROTS is pretty much a recolor of the AOTC outfit, lots of the browns are replaced with very dark brown or black. Other than colors and the glove, the belt is the only difference I can spot.

All shades of brown. No black. He also had a different cloak:

Re: Hot Toys Episode 3 Anakin

Jar Jar is the figure I want to see most...just to see what sales would be like.

He would be like all the other prequel stuff. People say it sucks and hate it, but still load up on all the merchandise from them.
 
I could have sworn for the life of me that I had pre-ordered this figure, but when I went to my sideshow account to check if there was any update on my payment plan for HC Spider-man, Anakin wasn't there!

Hoping I didn't pre-order it from elsewhere and not completely lost my marbles! Just had to place my order now lol.

Well you'll know for sure when he releases and a second one turns up on your doorstep :lol

I hope not lol
My bank account would literally cry out in pain!

So weird though, I remember setting up the payment plan and everything, maybe I just never hit the confirm button!

In all honesty, I would pick him up.

I would have a dedicated shelf of Star Wars pathetic characters, just for *****s and giggles: Jar-Jar, an Ewok, "Roger-Roger" droid and either Rose or Holdo. Still not sure which is worse.

I'm serious, too.
