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

[The Entity]

I hate that the only character they've announced thus far has been the worst in the show, yawn

Your opinion. I think it's a visually striking figure of a main character...

I agree with both of you. The figure is absolutely stunning. I think the hair looks better on the figure than in does in the show. But the character is just boring, lame and for some reason just unlikeable. I really noticed it in yesterdays episode, where there were lengthy scenes of just her and various CGI creatures. She works a bit better interacting with real life counterparts. When she meets Ezra there is finally some emotion in her acting, but of course she's doing something unlikeable straight away, by not telling how she got there.

Sabine is the worst part of the show for me, but gets a stellar figure.

Hoping for hot toys to make the jiminy cricket people. They have baby yoda potential lol

They could throw some of them in with certain figures, like they do with Grogu. I wouldn't mind getting a couple of them. I think they were nice additions to the Star Wars universe. Their behavior reminded me a bit of the Ewoks.



For me, I'm all in for figures of:

• Hera & Chopper
• Baylan
• Shin
• Thrawn

In the maybe pile are:

• Sabine (already shown)
• Ahsoka the White
• Thrawn-troopers
• Huyang

It’s stunning how poorly they have characterized Sabine so far. Having flaws and growing is important and I get that she’s meant to be going through a lot but… man. There’s zero nuance. She is not written like a real person, and completely at odds with her Rebels arc.

And to place the burden of the Thrawn invasion upon all that is certainly… a move. One I didn’t expect.

Still like the character and glad she got a fantastic figure. Would’ve still preordered day one knowing what I do now. But I hope there’s an actual proper payoff to her current arc.

I crave for an HT imperial officer, missed Tarkin and Krennic, and can't regret it enough..
Baylan and Thrawn is sure-po for me. I hope HT goes idealized looks for the grand admiral, I didn't want him with a tummy padding and the nameplate reads Daddy Thrawn

Are they called Rocwoks or Shellwoks?

Koopa troopers.

I missed out on Krennic and Tarkin as well. Thrawn will most likely be my first imperial officer, but my number one choice would be Dedra Meero. I'd love to see a figure of her.

Dedra, Thrawn, Veers, Piett would all be welcome, as would some generic Imperial crew and army. Would love if Tarkin and Krennic got re-released but highly doubtful.

I think Sabine is the best character so far. And I like all the characters.

Sabine had no business being a straight up dick to my boi,the dog rat cat wolf thing. He didn't owe her anything when he ran away under fire, he showed her how to find water and she acted like he was just digging, and he found the crab turtles. Literally he was single handedly carrying the team on his back and she was being a bitch to him. Do better, Sabine.

Literally skipped through that scene as it seemed to just keep going.

 

[chrisstbh]

He just had figure written all over him

 

[Jaycepticon]

Surprised if his 6” figure isn’t announced at the Hasbro Pulse thing tomorrow. Then I’d say Hot Toys by the end of the year. I imagine he’ll be down the line after the rest of the other bigger characters first.

Thrawn, Dedra Meedo, General Veers and Admiral Piett are all Imp Officers I'd like to see HT make. Hell, I'd even take Moff Jerjerrod. It's a shame they haven't made more than just Krennic and Tarkin. Lot of untapped potential for Empire-themed displays.

Don't know if it was intentional (was Filoni a Boorman fan) , instantly got Mordred vibes from this creep.

I can imagine Howard’s excitement over finally having a use for all the rejected Stormtrooper parts with QC issues over the years.

“What do you mean you threw those away!?”

 

[Dave_W]

Everyone finally gets a Thrawn figure...and his uniform is all ripped.

Definite:
- Ahsoka the White
- Baylon Skoll
- Shin Hati
- Thrawn
- Night Trooper
- Enoch
- Chopper
- Artisan Anakin with sculpted hair

Likely:
- Padawan Ahsoka (red outfit)
- Hera
- Ezra (maybe with hermit crab alien)
- Huyang
- Assassin Droid

Possibly:
- Rat Wolf
- Rex

Longshot:
- Jacen Syndulla
- Morgan Elsbeth
- Night Sisters
- Carson Teva
- Long haired Sabine with speeder

Did I miss anything?

I'm really hoping Enoch does some cool stuff because I haven't been interested in a new trooper design until now.

It’s a good wishlist but probably best to temper expectations so as not to be disappointed.

With the way things are, realistically they’re all long shots except for Ahsoka, Thrawn, and troopers.

Maybe we’ll get a few surprises but a full lineup like that would be a massive investment in new tooling, engineering, and head sculpts.

Sabine wouldn’t have been made if she didn’t have a helmet with a T-Visor.
