What was the last HT SW OT announcement? Seems like it's been SO long since anything new/exciting has been announced ( and no, trooper variants aren't that exciting.)
It is a little nerve-wracking to have the whole of ESB/ROTJ 1/6 ahead, yet nothing but Fett so far - and now the avalanche of Marvel begins.
I'm starting to realize it may be a LONG time before we have HT ESB/ROTJ figs in-hand, yet with that flurry of ANH announcements last year, I thought we'd have ESB figs almost in-hand by now.
The original proposition posed by Jack Bauer (beyond ANH) was that we were to have 2 from ESB and 3 from ROTJ likely prior to the movie's release... but that obviously changed. So if that plan was correct, then we're due 4 figures: 2 from ESB and the two remaining from ROTJ.
The problem may very well be that STAR WARS just wasn't the hit in China as it was hyped to be. Slow sales means HT will back off faster than Frosty the Snowman from a flame. HT has shown time and time again that if the sales aren't there, then neither will be the product -- regardless of what's been shown or promised.
If China wants more Iron Men and Civil War characters and Batman characters, then that's what they'll focus on from now until BvS and Civil War come out.
We may have been spoiled, and now the measly trickle of SW product comes... one new announcement every 2-3 months, with a 9 month wait time to shipment.
