New 1:6th Star Wars figure from Original Trology

[Buttmunch]

Do you really think this will be a non inclusive item. I just cant see this being a exclusive or anything like that. This one just breathes inclusive.

So did Old Ben.

All you sayers of nay are just too scared to believe it could be true.

Yes and I remember the 45 mins of hell that was this summer on my vacation and I got school tomorrow so I cant sit all day on the net. At least not while im in classes.

It is entirely possible that it's Vader. Toy Fair isn't until February, and I doubt Sideshow will sit on Vader for that long if it's ready to be solicited.

 

[Vader AL]

No vader...i wish it was Vader....not a chance in toy hell.

i hope it's tarkin.

SSC will not be attending Toy Fair, so it's a moot point in regards to this. They will likely announce items during Toy Fair online, but they won't be there.

Where did you hear this?

Exactly! (it better be Vader!!!)

I think it is Vader. None of the other characters that wear black are 'mysterious' and Vader pretty much is an officer, notice that this prediction isn't quite as clear as the other ones have been. And "Across a great expanse of distance and time" definitely says Star Wars.

 

[Buttmunch]

After listening to it again, I agree with Pix, it has to be Vader!

Exactly. Whats so mysterious about this guy?

Except maybe what he is doing now.

He's programming his VCR.

Heath told me when he was here for Dragon*Con. Apparently, travelling to Toy Fair and setting up a booth has become rather costly for SSC. Afterall, it's strictly a Trade Show. He said their plans were to participate still, but instead have the Toy Buyers come to THEM and focus their Toy Fair unveilings on the web site instead of at the show. Makes sense to me.

If anything, this will probably just make SDCC even more of a focus for SSC... which is awesome for us.

OK. I knew there would still be TF hoopla at SSC.com but I was unaware that NYC was now outta the picture. Awesomeness.

 

[Rogue Trooper]

How great will it be if its vader but it its imperial ill still be happy, could garindan be mysterious.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

I think SS is throwing a curve ball. I can't imagine it being Vader.

 

[TheObsoleteMan]

I'm not buying into the hype this time. I'm just going to assume it's Garindan that way anything else will be a pleasant surprise.

 

[lerath666]

The word "officer" is odd, but I do think it's possible that it's just something to make it a little less obvious. Do Imperial officers wear black? I always picture them in gray.

Like I've been sayaaing all over the threads , the Black-uniformed Imperilas Were Stomtrooper Officers.

Supports my point even more. The next "big" event to announce Vader is SDCC in July. No business is going to sit on a cash cow product like this for that long just to make a big entrance with it. Plus, if they announce this now, it'll be higher-profile because nothing else is really going on. Plus, I imagine there will be a lot of pre-orders as Christmas gifts (think the old Kenner Early Bird event from '77).
