NEXT Star Wars 1/6th Figure...

[IrishJedi]

Sneaky....?

I'd happily pay $200 for Tarkin.

The current level of SSC paint apps would probably hold me back and HT won't touch him. It's a dude in a grey/green uniform, so a great headsculpt is key. I was okay with the middling headsculpt/apps results on SSC's Han and Luke Hoth, but those figs had a ton of accessories, complex outfits/weapons, and could also work with faces covered if necessary. Tarkin is none of those things, so I think he's a risky one, especially at the new high pricepoints.

The two droids are fairly likely because they are prominent characters. But personally I think we'll be waiting a little while longer for them since Sideshow's versions just came out. 2nd and 3rd tier aliens like Bossk or Greedo are more of a longshot. HT is not known for delving too deep into lines. They still have tons of first tier characters to get through, so chances are HT will cover those first before ever seeing any aliens.

I'm hopeful that we'll see lots of stuff including second and third tier aliens and every version of the major characters. People often look back at what HT has done on the past with other lines but this is different - they paid so much for the license they have to exploit it to the hilt (another reason why so much is being released so fast). Plus the next four years belong to Star Wars in the same way that TDK or Marvel have dominated stuff in the past. One thing I'm sure we'll see is lots of robots, the Asian market loves robots.

Looks like they went with an Iron Man reveal. Still hopeful for a Luke reveal soon

Were we expecting anything different?

Man, I wish they would show us a Poe figure already.

Just saw TFA again yesterday and now I'm even more impatient for them to finish doing all the main (human) characters.

 

[The Green Goblin]

This is the week that they reveal Poe! I can feel it!


And if not this week, then the next week, and if not the next week, then the week after that, and it's not the week after that, it'll be the week the Deadpool movie is released, and if it's not the week the Deadpool movie is released it'll be the week after the Deadpool movie is released, and if it's not the week after the Deadpool movie is released then it'll be...

But seriously though...

 

[Wor-Gar]

I hope its more OT.... been quite some time now.

Why would you just want 1 figure from this Rogue Squadron. All or none

 

[Lumos]

True.... But I'd kind of like them to finish up TFA, and THEN return to the OT. They can skip the prequels.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Ehh.. I think HT should at least devote some resources to making Qui-Gon, Theed battle Padme, & Jango.

 

[SNIKT1950]

HT PT figures would sell very well so I expect quite a few of them.

 

[Lumos]

Oh, I know, I know. I'm just teasing. I would be very surprised if we didn't see prequel figs. Luckily my wallet will get a breather when those come out.

 

[Jaymas]

What do you think the chances are of a Hot Toys Yavin/Ceremonial Luke?

I'm thinking of picking up a 2nd Hot Toys farmboy to redress in SS Yavin clothes (but with different boots). But if Hot Toys were to make the figure I'm sure the tailoring on the clothes would be better.

I'm pretty sure they're going to milk the SW line to death. However, it's going to take a very long time to get all these figures out.

 

[TonTon]

That outfit is getting some decent play in the comics, and if they're not changing the head or anything maybe it might be an exclusive at some point. But it's hard to think it would be a priority.

 

[FlyAndFight]

A Tarkin / Death Star Gunner 2-pack would be most excellent.

Hot Toys, you may fire when ready.

 

[Johnny Utah]

A HT Neeson sculpt would be amazing. They're never going to do Ra's despite all the annual prickteases from Howard.

I can't wait to see the people bashing the PTs buy the PT Hot Toys.
