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

[HyperDrive]

But yes, this is the dream RO display for me.

 

[darth dennis]

I think I'd prefer this.

I don't have an "Andor" display. But I do have a RO display.

Again, that blue parka is a good look. Not a lot of blue on the Star Wars shelf.

I think that's the Parka Han wore in ESB on Hoth, right?

 

[Wor-Gar]

I heard Gareth picked the blue parka for Cassian to show his support for Han's blue parka in ESB.

I don't care as I sold all my Rogue One figures when they refused to finish the set with Baze... BUT, I'd say it's possible that we've not seen the RO look on Cassian as it'd spoil something at the end of Andor. I hope that folks do get a proper RO Cassian as I thought that was a great movie and I was bored to tears by Andor S1...

You’d need Bodhi too, imo.

And I still care cause that’s the specific look I’d ideally want to pair with my Jyn figure. Which if they were to do a RO Cassian (blue parka or not) I’d probably upgrade it with the 357partment repaint and root job by TeTsu.

And I actually liked Andor Season 1 episode 6 (aside from a few gripes) and the finale, but otherwise, didn’t care for the show as much as others do.

This is besides the point as well. Not sure why you’re asking. But I get it, moving the goalposts I see.

Totally with you there Dennis. I kept my Rogue 1 line because I loved that movie more than even OG Star Wars. Just more grown up for us grown up kids.

Put me in the blue parka camp as well. That with the cool backpack thing he had. It'd all make a great deluxe.

 

[Mondragon]

Though the most utilitarian, look is his Jedha/Eadu parka and gear, as it should also contain, his basic Yavin Rebel Captains uniform underneath,
so it would be two complete looks in one. Three actaully if they want to throw in the sniper vest.

And fits best with the R1 crew, ...

The Rogue One makes the most sense to do imo, and it’s such a great look since the figure would essentially be a 3-in-1. Or 4 if you include his very last look where he’s just wearing the shirt. It’d be a fun figure with all the swap outs.

I really don’t get why most collectors don’t care for this look, especially considering there’s already an entire Rogue One line by Hot Toys that it could be a part of.

As well as the backpack, it would also include the unique break away sniper rifle he used.

I'd be happy with this if HT went all out and did all 3 in 1, it really is the most complete "deluxe" look.
Looks like what most want including Wor-Gar
Not sue what the debate is?

As far as what Gilroy said:

Gilroy: “Yeah, I mean, our final scene of the show is no secret; it’s going to be [Cassian] walking across the tarmac to get in the ship to go to the Rings of Kafrene ...”

Though as other indicate, the last three Eps lead into that scene.
So he may still revisit other R1 looks before that.

Gilroy told Empire that the final three episodes of the season will cover "the last three days before Rogue One," with the finale leading right into the events of the film.

@Mondragon

The “debate” has become muddied, it’s been misconstrued af. What was being proposed before is getting a figure that “kills 2 birds with one stone” as in a “Andor S2 finale look which also acts as a Rogue One based version. What Wor-Gar failed to understand is that this wouldn’t be possible considering the outfit he wants (which I also want), the Jedha City blue parka look, wouldn’t be what he’d wear at the end of Andor S2, given the outfit he wears at the very beginning of Rogue One is the other one that I showed. It’s further supported by the exact quote you just shared (thank you for that) where Gilroy explicitly states the final scene will be him boarding the ship that goes to the Ring of Kafrene which again, is where he’s at when we are introduced to the character in Rogue One.

This outfit……

That being said, all I was getting at is that a “hybrid” combo Andor/Rogue One figure isn’t going to work, in order to attain the Rogue One “hero” look (specifically the Jedha City blue parka look), so why even ask for that, a hybrid Andor show/Rogue One Cassian figure that kills 2 birds with one stone? Why entertain that idea? It’s not even possible. Why not instead just ask for a proper Rogue One Cassian figure? One where ideally you’d get the blue parka and the dark blue vest in addition to the tan brown jacket.

No idea why this wasn’t understood and it flew off the rails.

There is no debate. People are posting on topic what they want to see. You (Hyperdrive) for some reason feel the need to tell everybody why they’re right or why they’re wrong as if you’re on the committee that’s gonna decide what hot toys are going to release.

Drop it. Consider this a warning.
