1/6 NEXT Hot Toys STAR WARS Figure...?

[Tee-Kay]

So regarding May 4th, does Hot Toys historically reveal multiple Star Wars figures on that day? Or is it like... one special one. How does this go.

With Hot Toys, you are not even garanteed they'll even acknowledge that Star Wars day. Star Wars reveal(s) on that day are as likely as a new Iron Man.

I?m really hoping a Mandalorian/Book of Fett Gammy is shown soon. I?m guessing it won?t be until after December though.

Ohhh that's a good choice.
Any update on the SSC Grammy would be a fine addition to my collection.

I've mentioned this before but I REALLY hope they skip the Mando Gammy's and just do the ROTJ ones. I just can't see them doing 2 versions.

Next SW release?

What I want = Queen Amidala, the Armorer, General Grievous, Mace Windu, C-3PO

What we'll get = obnoxious re-paint or re-release


EDIT: Oh, and what's a grammy or gammy?

 

[Dave_W]

Gamorean's...I assumed.

haha right? HT be like "You guys want another Stormtrooper, right? Right???"

 

[DCFett]

haha right? HT be like "You guys want another Stormtrooper, right? Right??? Here's an Iron Man!"

FIXED!

 

[user 58482]

oh ****, u right

 

[Dave_W]

Hot Toys will finally give us C-3PO!!!!!

Spoiler

 

[user 67922]

Meh, will wait on the porcelain flower power version.

 

[fantasticfrog]

FIXED!

I bet we get a venomized, carbonite Spider-Man. Or it will be cyborg and ride the dc hype train.

I'd be so surprised if HT ever did Cyborg period, but I find it highly plausible that IF they did, they wouldn't find issue with Tweeting the announcement on May 4th!

Yes they have.

From checking they skipped 2019 and 2018 as far as I checked tell, but otherwise have done stuff. With how big Star Wars is again, I'm expecting a few reveals or preorders. I'm pretty sure 2018 and 2019 were dominated by Infinity War and Endgame, so explains the absense.

2020: Darth Vader and Boba Fett re-issues in vintage boxes and Captain Rex Clone Wars Tease, Rex went up about a week later.
2017: Hoth Leia
2016: Teases of ESB Yoda, TFA Han and Chewie, 1/4 Kylo that never materialized.
In 2015 the line was basically kicked off then.

I really hope you are right and we get at least a PO on may 4th. With The Bad Batch premiering that day on D+, a clone of some sort (or Clone Wars related character) would be a safe bet.

 

[fantasticfrog]

The way hot toys has turned into resculpt and rerelease old figures, I can see some sort of stormtrooper from mandalorian soon.

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

I think Bad Batch is going to be ignored by HT, but I do think there will be at least one Star Wars release for May the 4th. Probably Mando Luke.

 

[DCFett]

Probably Mando Luke.

That's makes a lot of sense.
I do think they will pull from the new show ala S7 of CW figures. Definitely an Elite Squad Trooper, but as some have noted, that's a redo of a stormtrooper
I'll take it though.

 

[CrankbaitJon]

I rather they avoid the Bad Batch figures. They will not make the entire team.

Maybe they will release Rex and tease Wolfe?

General Kenobi is another one to go with the Clone Wars line. They probably want the 2nd batch of this one out before the Kenobi series and announce the new Obi Wan figure for that.

 

[Star-Crunch]

I’m gonna go ahead and set myself up for disappointment and hope they show Bespin Han and or Grievous

 

[RandomHero]

Yeah, I have my fingers crossed for Bespin Han, Mace Windu or Fives.

Can't wait for the Artillery Trooper instead.
