NEXT Star Wars 1/6th Figure...

[evenflow]

Looks like the onslaught of Civil War figures is about to begin. Need more Star Wars.

That's what I afraid of.

I'm getting worried bout the lack of Poe.

Honestly, after buying every single ANH figure so far (Even Luke trooper and Spacetrooper ) my wallet and shelf could use the break. I think it's a sneaky way of getting folks to take a second look at the TFA figures, though. If I knew of more upcoming OT figures I probably wouldn't have looked too closely at TFA figures, instead I now have Ren, TIE Pilot, Stormtrooper, and Snowtrooper on the way.

Unless Poe appears in Civil War, we might have a wait...

I agree, collectors always need something to collect. Have they done all the troopers yet? I wonder if they'll dripfeed TFA figures until Christmas - Poe, Han, Finn Trooper, Snoke - plus choice Rogue One troopers and lead characters then announce a bunch of OT figures for the end of the following year?

I am happy to buy the Force Awakens figures, the lack of Hot Toys announcements is making me consider Sideshow figures (R5, 3PO) so no announcements is taking money away from Hot Toys technically (for me anyway).

They focused on the troopers when they should have gotten all the main character figures out first IMO. I know the troopers were easier to pump out, but it's still a little annoying. I was hoping we'd see Poe before Marvel mania started up again, and I say that as a Marvel fan...

As far as villains I told myself just Ren and a Stormtrooper since that covers the primary villain and trooper. But the Snowtrooper was always my favorite design of the bunch. TIE Pilot just turned out too gorgeous and is in the awesome falcon chase. Too weak. Kind of excited to put together a TFA shelf now though. Figure 8 figures will do, 2 on each detolf shelf--Ren/Snowtrooper; Poe/TIE Pilot; Finn/Stormtrooper; Han/Rey + BB-8

R5 is a fun little droid, would have picked up the SS 3PO but I have the Tama and really don't need two 3POs.

That will be a nice looking TFA Detolf.

Looks like Antman is getting released, so I assume no announcement tonight. Also, HT updated their FB to announce that Civil War is coming. Maybe we'll have a big lull for awhile. Although I could use the break right now, announcements now mean figures in 9-12 months so hopefully some OT gets revealed in the next month or two.

I'm hoping for a TFA Chewie. I loved his bulkier look. I wouldn't be surprised if we see Finn in his Stormtroopers gear. It's an easy one to make considering there's a sculpt for both head and body.

I would like to see him with helmet with bloody hand mark.

 

[sithgorilla]

I don't have any TFA figures yet, so if there is a lull it'll give me a chance to catch up.

Yeah, I guess the lull means a break for the wallet.
The OT stuff all mainly hit at once and the TFA characters on the back of that.
I am all caught up on OT except for Leia, and have a few TFA on order (4), so those will keep the wallet busy til they are released.
I want Poe but in his Xwing gear.
They can make his Resistance outfit easily enough on the back of Finn's, I just hope that version if made, is used as an exclusive.

Is sideshow or hot toys exhibiting at toy fair?

 

[Bearded_Mayhem]

Where the hell is Poe?!

Correct me if i'm wrong but I feel like last year, they didn't go to Toy Fair because they don't consider Hot Toys "toys", but rather collectibles. I think they won't show us anything major till SDCC other than the occasional reveals throughout the year like normal.

 

[TonTon]

I thought Toy Fair was for big box retailers.

He's out picking blueberries with Henry Fonda.

Hopefully with the Episode 8 tease, we get a new figure announcement tonight.
