Yeah, worried about that because they seem to have moved on from TFA and are back into making and announcing 70,000 versions of the same god damned Superhero characters.

"I'm hopeful for a Tarkin from Hot Toys"! Man, we're lucky to have gotten the big name characters we did.

Thank goodness RO is coming up because they'd probably be done with SW for another 18 months if not. Marvel sells massive in Asia, SW doesn't.

I'll be buying a grand total of 1 of all those listed
Ah well. Gives me more time to save for SW figures.

Hell, even the Fast & Furious movies make more money over there than Star Wars. Those people are whacky I tell ya.

Fixed

Nice to see you embracing TFA IrishJedi. Have you seen it more than once?

As for Hot Toys to me the "core" heroes of the film were Rey, Finn, BB-8, Han and Chewie.

Those are the absolute top shelf "must have" good guys.

Second tier "must haves" are Luke, Leia, and Poe.

I'd be crushed if any of the characters pictured above were left out.

As far as I'm concerned the OT and TFA is "Priority one. Insure release of production figures for analysis. All other licenses secondary. Marvel and DC expendable."

 

[devilof76]

Poe and Luke are the only ones I'd be hopeful for, and Luke is the long shot of the two. I'd be shocked if Leia happened.

 

[Khev]

I'd be shocked if Leia happened.

I know. I'm prepared to be crushed.

Hopefully they can sneak her into a two-pack or something. An acquaintance of mine catered for TFA and he'd tell me stories prior to the film's release about how she didn't look that good, would come to the food truck and request nothing but a jar of peanut butter for her entire meal with which she'd then retreat to her trailer. I was braced for her to stick out like Marion in KOTCS but I came away thinking that all of her scenes with Han and Rey were some of the most poignant in the entire film.

 

[TaliBane]

Poe and Luke are the only ones I'd be hopeful for, and Luke is the long shot of the two. I'd be shocked if Leia happened.

I really, really hope they do Luke. I can't believe he'd be a long shot.

And they turned Leia into Mon Mothma. Wish she could have been in that battle with Han and the rest. Bit of a waste, but 3PO and R2 fared even worse.

Chewy fared best other than Han of the OT characters, but he looked very PT Chewy to me, even in the pics above. Like he looks younger or something. Or just off. And I'm the only one who missed Lando. I really liked Lando as a kid.

Yeah, you have to wonder if the Communist leadership in the Imperial Palace looked at the Imperial Empire in SW and did one of those Dom Deluise moments - "Does he mean me?"...

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Where's Old Man Han, HT?

 

[TaliBane]

Old Han, old Luke.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I just saw this movie again. Carrie Fisher is as stiff as an old woman wrapped in a tight girdle. I think she shot her load in this film. Prepare for more "worrying scenes" if she's brought back. A hug from Luke. Some static dialogue. Then more worrying.

What are the chances that SS will get to dip their hand in the TFA 1:6 pot?

If they were going to, wouldn't they have done it by now?

 

[TaliBane]

There really weren't many great secondary creatures or robots in TFA like in the OT, which would be SSC's best chance. HT has taken all the armored which used to be SSC's bread and butter.

They should finally take time to do Ackbar and Nien Nunb. Neither are likely to happen but I'd take them both. The Teedo and luggabeast (the creature that caught BB-8) are cool looking but I doubt they'll get made.

Same. Ackbar is an obvious SSC release that would actually sell. Even Nien has a bit of kitsch value too.
