Oh, you're going to love the rest of the year. It's going to be Rouge all over the place. I'm already seeing it daily, soon it will be at 25% of total usage.

Your choice... Rouge the girl band or Moulin Rouge

Rogue One doesn't deserve to have Hot Toys figures until the PT/OT/TFA is appropriately represented on our shelves. So... maybe thirty figures from now we can get the plain Jane... I mean Jones.

Agreed 100%. Unfortunately the Disney machine will see to it that we get a bunch of Rogue One characters before a Yoda or Jedi Luke methinks.
 
Get off the HT train plebs. The most important figures have already been made, save for a couple in TFA. Really tired of this old schtick.

No one gives a damn if you're tired. A lot of people want more HT figures, particularly from the OT, whether it pleases you or not. It's nice to have a complete collection of a similar quality. You don't have to harp on in every single thread.

:lecture

If only they had started with a Jar-Jar standalone film like we all secretly wanted (shh, it's okay nobody has to admit to agreeing on this) we wouldn't be in the mess we are now.

LOL

...but seriously, Tarkin is a big omission.

And Hoth Leia.

And Lando.

And Skiff Guard Lando.

These would be great! I'm still waiting for the Death Squad Commander and an updated Tuskin Raider so I can complete the ORIGINAL 12, but hey, it's only been close to 10 years since SS announced the license. :horror

You'll get Rogue One figures and you'll like them.

Incidentally, I'm not tired of HT figures, I'm tired of whiners and complainers repeating ad nauseam some trite BS.

Hot Toys will never finish an OT Star Wars line*, no matter how many wet dreams fan boys have. If you want a complete line you'll have to buy from multiple manufacturers, that's just the way it is and harping in every thread to the contrary isn't going to change that.

* people in the know have already mentioned multiple times how many characters to expect from the other movies - now they no longer post about it because of the fan boys mentioned above not liking the information and having fits.

PT figures before the remainder in TFA or starting the RO line? :rotfl x 1000

Context matters and it's painful when someone doesn't pay attention.

Rogue One doesn't deserve to have Hot Toys figures until the PT/OT/TFA is appropriately represented on our shelves. So... maybe thirty figures from now we can get the plain Jane... I mean Jones.

1. PT has already had much more representation in 1/6 than it ever deserved - it isn't going to start deserving more now that new movies (better movies) are being made/released. HT would be wasting resources to produce anything from the PT. Plain and simple.

2. OT has seen the release of the *most* significant characters already and additional ones (and versions) continue to be released - OT is "appropriately" represented by all sane accounts right now.

3. TFA has had a flurry of releases in the past year and most collectors can't keep up - you can be sure there will be more figures going forward.

Has HT ever waited to do anything with any particular line at the expense of introducing figures from another? Don't bother answering, I'll spell it out for you: N O. If they waited to release another 30 figures for OT/TFA before RO they'd be missing the boat. HT seems to like to "strike while the iron's hot" for new properties - not likely to change for RO.

What did those people in the know say? I know Jack Bauer said there would be a Luke and Yoda from ESB and Emperor and Jedi Luke from ROTJ. Would you mind saying what other information they've given?

As for the rest of your post, I'd be surprised if Disney passed up the chance to sell more figures from other movies. It kind of goes against the grain of everything else they've done with Star Wars for them not to exploit HT's licence to the hilt. I could see them advising HT to take a break here and there from the OT to allow ST figures to be sold, but we've already seen a second run of some Ot figures which is unprecedented. What do you think?
 
Unprecedented? So was releasing so many within a year, expandable base stands and the price.

Hot Toys will finish the line. We already know there is a Emperor/Luke from ROTJ and Yoda/Luke from ESB on the way. That is coming from people "in the know" like Jack. No one else has said Hot Toys has ended the OT line. Just because there is a delay in announcements.. doesn't mean the line is dead. Look at Drax. Look at Nick Fury from TWS.

If those OT figures from ESB/ROTJ sell good (which they will), we will see more OT figure like Royal Guards, Ewoks (surprisingly there is a demand), Vader, droids, more trooper variants, Bespin/Hoth/Endor Luke/Han/Leia. Disney will want those made just as much as Hot Toys.

I never said that. I said PT/OT/TFA figures before Rogue One. Really, it should be TFA first, then OT, then PT. Then RO. ROTS would outsell Rogue One in a heartbeat in regards to figures. I would bet money on it.

1. PT has already had much more representation in 1/6 than it ever deserved - it isn't going to start deserving more now that new movies (better movies) are being made/released. HT would be wasting resources to produce anything from the PT. Plain and simple.

No. There are figures from the PT like Anakin and Kenobi that would sell just as good as the OT figures. It isn't a waste of resources, which is just foolish to suggest.

2. OT has seen the release of the *most* significant characters already and additional ones (and versions) continue to be released - OT is "appropriately" represented by all sane accounts right now.

No. You seem to forget what OT means... Original Trilogy. How can you say it is appropriately represented when we only have two figures from ESB/ROTJ? You are wrong. We still need ROTJ Emperor/Luke/Han/Leia/Vader. We still need ESB Luke/Yoda/Han/Leia/droids.

3. TFA has had a flurry of releases in the past year and most collectors can't keep up - you can be sure there will be more figures going forward.

I know. It is just that TFA figures (and OT/PT) should come before Rogue One.

You don't really know that answer. Neither do I.

:exactly:
 
Tarkin created Vader? :lol

That reminds me of the ROTS special effects supervisor who called Han Solo pernickety and needing to "have the best of everything". :lol It seems half these people don't know what they're talking about. :lol
 
Man, if RO is really bringing back Tarkin and Vader from the very seeds of Star Wars, and in their same 1977 ANH glory, that's got me excited much more than seeing the old trio of Luke, Leia and Han in TFA.
 
A hologram would be the only respectful way of doing it, IMHO. A CG Tarkin could work when filtered through a hologram effect, I think it would be just creepy to have him walking around with present day actors.
