NEXT Star Wars 1/6th Figure...

[FLOSI]

Did I miss something? Did Hot Toys give Star Wars it's own line with them, now?

No, just Bespin Luke and a few rumors so far.

No, just Bespin Luke and a few rumors so far.

And those are a part of the same line that has the Alien, Predator, Captain America, Batman, and Iron Man figures (and others), correct?

Well, they're all part of HT's 1/6th line of figures. Luke falls under HT's DX, or deluxe, line. No one really know if future Star Wars releases will be DX or MMS (Movie Masterpiece Series, which are pretty standard figures compared to the DX ones). To be honest, their 1/6th figures are all very nice, deluxe or not, and often times you just end up overpaying for gimmicks and supped up packaging with the DX figures.

Luke looks to be a pretty solid release though... Two full figures along with two very different display options really makes me think this is a pretty good value.

Ah! Got it. Thanks.

Oh my! You cheeky bastard.... I see how you roll now.

I'll see you, and raise you one Death Squad Commander/Death Star Trooper.

Tarkin.

Boba Ben wins all with Nien Nunb!

"Lol."

I think how to do the fur is the biggest issue, obviously Might have to be done manually which would really drive up the cost. I would guess Hot Toys might be the ones who could do it and get away with charging $400 to $500? Some people in the star wars custom section have taken the hard hasbro figure and applied fur manually and come out with a decent looking figure.

Oh okay. I like the hard plastic Hasbro figure. I might give it a try applying the hair...and then I may not. I might end up screwing it up. I'll check out how they did it. Thanks!

Tarkin.

I can only top that with Chewie, but that would be cheating..... So..... Tie Fighter pilot!

Numb, Akbar and General Lando would look damn cool together.

I'm going all in with Jar Jar and Episode I Anakin....

Game over, man!

 

[Boba Ben]

Gonk Droid. I want one.

 

[devilof76]

The only droid I want more is R5-D4. R2 is third. Then Death Star Droid. Then C-3PO.

Tie Fighter pilot!

At this point, I'm ready to take lighter fluid and a Bic to the next clone that gets announced.

Also, Nien Nunb in pilot gear would rock.

Start a lightin... Though you'll need a flamethrower. Cause I want:

Commander Neyo
Commander Appo
Commander Thire
Captain Jag
327th Trooper (Lieutenant Galle)
41st Biker Scout
212th Airborne Trooper
AT-RT Driver

 

[MClass]

Commander Neyo
Commander Appo

Those three plus Commander Keller! Common Sideshow, make it happen!

I'll drop napalm from planes if I have to.

Yes, R5-D4 was always a personal favorite for me as well. Any and all variants of Nunb would be great.

I'm happy for the clone collectors, but we really have seen a ton of them. Sideshow is keeping me happy with the aliens they've released lately as well as Boba Fett coming up, but I'd like to see more Imperial troops, droids and aliens in the pipeline.

Star Wars just has so many awesome and unique designs that it's a shame to see rehashes of a single design (er, clones, as it were) dominating the line.
