I had a couple things I thought of today that I'd like to see in the future and I thought all of you might have some too. Do you have specific characters you want to see, materials you'd like changed, paint ap suggestions??? Put em here and let's see what everybody thinks. (I realize this is practically an invitation for flame wars but I'm really curious as to what ideas you all have to better the line, SO LET'S PLAY NICE!!! :lol )

I had 2 to start off with...

1. I'd love to see force weild right AND left hands included with Jedi figures. I thought of two (fairly) iconic poses today that would not be possbile to pull off correctly due to the left hand force wield.

2. Whenever SSC gets around to doing an EI Obi Wan, I'd love for the padawan braid to be removeable so he could be "promoted" to Jedi just like in the movie. Come to think of it an extra set of QGJ hilts (ignited and unignited) would be cool to see too.

:D
 
I would like a few Palpatine/Sidious figures.

#1. Chancellor Palpatine/Sidious -Red hoodless robe, with lightsaber
normal face

#2. Emperor Palpatine-Red Robe additional added hood, scarred face
special senate base, no lightsaber (SDCC Exclusive)

#3. Darth Sidious-Black robe, lightsaber

#4. The Emperor (ROTJ)-Black Robe, walking stick, no ligtsaber,
hunched over figure. (SS Exclusive-Luke's saber hilt)

Special Environment-The Throne Room
 
For the eventual SSC stormtrooper, include swappable Han and Luke heads. One with the exclusive, the other with the regular. Not only would people buy one of each for Han and Luke, but they'd also buy at least one extra for a trooper. It's a license to print money.
 
I want Episode II Obi Wan to have an interchangeable head with wet looking hair for the fight with Jango!

ANH Obi wan should come with Anakin's lightsaber, preferably lit and unlit (I know he never lit it).

Boba Fett. Similar to the Darla from BTVS released by SSC, Biba should come in two different outfit patterns. The regular could be ESB and the exclusive could be ROTJ, or the other way around.

Those would work except the Emperor's exclusive. We already have Luke's saber hilt and Exclusives are "no repeats." Everything else sounds great though.

My wishes precisely except for the Luke saber hilt... I would prefer something else.. Not sure what, but something else. ;)

How about a Force Lighting hand as the exclusive, OR an interchangable head...either laughing/smiling or electro circuit head...OR electronic voice box! (homage to Hasbro!) For ep6 of course....

I like the idea of characters who have noticible changes to have that included with the figure.

If they release either an ep1 or ep2 Palpatine, a Sidious robe included would be totally rad.

Same goes with a Padme Naberrie ep1 figure if they do it. Would be nice if she came with the orange handmaiden cloak she wears later in the film (or earlier in the film also).

Anyone else have easy costume changes?

Would an ep3 palpatine with rubber "scarred" mask be feasible?
 
A Yoda 2 Pack would be nice as well. Yoda from 2 different eras
2 figures sold for the price of 1. The same body can be used just minor
head differences and different robes. One to pose with the Prequel jedi and
other to pose with Luke.

(AOTC-ROTS )Jedi Warrior Master Yoda-With walking stick
Jedi robes and lightsaber

(ESB-ROTJ) Master Yoda-walking stick, Dagobah robes

This could be the best idea yet! I've been toying with the idea of how they could do Yoda. It could also open the door to Jawas or even Ugnaughts...and Ewoks.
 
My wishes would be more generic.

1. Change the bodies. The proportions make figures look odd, the wrists look terrible, the heads are usually too large, the hip joints are a sore to the eye (with full clothing on).

2. Change the materials used for the boots. It's way too stiff, which implies making them too wide at the ankles and calves, and also impair movement.

3. Check the tailoring of the outfits. Solo for one has odd tailored clothes.

4. Check the scale. Some of the accesories look way too big. Han's blaster springs to mind.

As for specific figure requests or accesories, I'm pretty happy with what has been delivered. Sure, the ratio of Jedi's over other lines has been overwhelming, but I still like the variety of Jedis, although I'm not too interested in the secondary characters.
 
1. As has been said, force gesture right and left hands.

2. More expansion packs.

3. Try to watch the paint apps.

4. More female figures.
 
I also agree the Left/Right Force hands would be great.

Better Quality Control on the paint applications.

Improved servers to handle the chaos that is known as PPO
 
New body with better aesthetics.
Yoda needs a special 4" Yoda body, not a Jawa body, not an Ugnaught body. He also needs articulation comparable to the others and several hands for the for wield and "kung fu" poses. He needs a pointing finger for the OT version too.
Consistancy with the head sizes, ala Mace compared to everyone else.
Resculpt the left hand its just too big.
Army builder pricing.

On a selfish note, be nice to customizers and sell some generic lightsabers, belts and pouches, as well as generic mix and match Jedi robes of varying colors.

That's just damn genius. I love it. Hope Sideshow sees this one.

I don't think that what Monitor meant. Logically Yoda will have a different body from a Jawa or Ugnaught. Monitor was talking about selling those type
of figures in two-packs as oppose to singles.

Thats not a bad idea, however I'm sure customizers can make those
themselves thus negating the purpose of SS making them.
 
1.STOP MAKING JEDI!!!!! (at least for a year or so)
2.New base bodies along the lines of the Triad Toys ones.
3.Mos Eisley Cantina Environment
4.PF Chewbacca with "real" fur
5.1/6 Bantha with Tusken Raider
 
My suggestion would be for Sideshow not to be stingy with the "female figures"...

I would love to get:

1. "Bespin Gown Leia"
2. "ANH Leia"
3. "Mara Jade"
4. "Arena Padme"
5. "Queen Amidala"
6. "Aayla Secura"
7. "Shaak Ti"

ect...
