NEXT Star Wars 1/6th Figure...

[LoveMinusZero]

Seeing how well HT was about to capture the differences between the hero and stunt helmets from ANH, do you think there's a chance they'll release a ROTJ version of the Stormtrooper?

 

[cmiller99]

Probably not. At least with TFA they can ride the hype and release virtually identical troopers. Give it a few years maybe.

 

[LoveMinusZero]

cmiller99, the dreamkiller.

I'm not that bad, am I?

 

[WWEJedi]

I'm not that bad, am I?

Yes.... yes you are. You single handedly crushed my dreams of Hot Toys TPM Little Ani.

 

[cmiller99]

Eh, whatever. It's just lil' orphan Annie.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Apparently slots for Poe AND old Han... so now its just: who's first?

Also, Sideshow TFA has a drop down menu for Hux and Snoke.

We also need a red-armed Threepio and Artoo 2-pack.

Hope they throw in an interchangeable gold arm.

Is a HT Emperor with throne or Yoda or even a Darth Maul too far away?

 

[amos brearly]

snow speeder or x-wing luke please...failing that gamorean guard or the emperors crimson guards.

 

[stickman]

Still waiting for Death Squad Commander from the Original 12!

 

[Wor-Gar]

cmiller99, the dreamkiller.

I never heard that title before.

Given that a lot of people said there were only a certain amount of hot toys star wars figures being made, is it possible we WON'T see another Vader and anh one will be the only one. I've been holding out for an empire or jedi Vader but if they're only doing maybe 4 or 5 more OT figures, maybe we won't get one? Also, how do we know Poe and old Han are next? Is there a teaser somewhere I missed?

 

[Invictus Sol]

Those rumoured numbers per film were only specific to pre-orders we could expect before TFA opened. HT paid a ton for the license, so they won't be leaving any lucrative characters behind from the OT. Over the next 2 or 3 years we'll see a lot of OT pre-orders mixed in with the new trilogy and spin-offs.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Vader being Vader, I can't imagine HT not doing another version, especially since ESB is generally everyone's favorite look. My guess is we'll see a tease for the ESB/ROTJ version by summer.

Hopefully they worked out the problems with this ANH Vader.

I hate that both SSC and HT used ANH Vader as the guinea pig, and will make a much better Vader next time, but the ANH look will never get another shot.

 

[SNIKT1950]

So last year HT closed out 2014 with ANH Vader on New Year's Eve.

This year...nothing.

I was really hoping we'd get a reveal tonight. Something big like ROTJ Palpatine or TFA Han.

Isn't Darth Vader pretty much the same throughout the OT? I could see them releasing another version for ROTJ with the old nasty Anakin head under the helmet. But I wouldn't hold my breath for it.

I'm personally hoping for the following:

Original Trilogy
Hoth Leia
X-Wing Luke
Han Solo with Long Sleeve Jacket
Lando

TFA
Poe (Pilot Uniform)
Han Solo
Kylo Ren (without helmet)
Leia (never gonna happen)

I'm glad we've got nothing. My wallet needs time to breathe. I've already got Vader, Boba, Kylo, FO Trooper, FO Snowy, Phasma, Rey/BB8 and Finn coming this year!

Having it in-hand, it doesn't need another shot, honestly. As long as you're not concerned with the terribly implemented audio 'feature' (I haven't even bothered to test and never will), the figure is about perfect. Hope they abandon it when ESB eventually goes up.

Yep, me too. Last year was enough figures that I'd be happy not to have anything on PO for a while. Reading your list makes me glad I'm only interested in the OT.
