1/6 Why no love from Hot Toys for Rogue One, Cassian, Baze and Saw Gerrera ?

Chirrut had the advantage of Donnie Yen being big in South-East Asia. Kind of like Johnny Depp making Tonto and Ichabod Crane viable.

Krennic would have been a good release because of the costume and how it would look next to a couple of death troopers.

Cassian and Baze were decent in the movie, but I don't think they'd be big sellers.

Collectors will often say a character they want made, but when the time comes to fork out the $200 + for it, it gets passed over. With so much being made now as well, I imagine figures get dropped from the want list quite often.

Perhaps they're testing the waters with Tarkin to gauge interest in Imperial officers.

If he sells well, maybe we'll get Krennic or other officers.

I feel they've been a little skittish with Star Wars after TFA with the glut of unsold figures, i.e. only doing one Shoretrooper variant (although hopefully for now since I'd love all three).

Krennic would have such immense shelf presence alongside the Death Troopers, near a display of Tarkin, Vader, the Emperor, Royal Guards, and Stormtroopers.

Would love a new 1:6 Thrawn, too (who could also be displayed with Death Troopers). Come on, Sideshow. Do a v2.

For all those who do 3 per Detolf setups, Krennic & 2 Deathtroopers is a no brainer.

I agree 100%

Baze was cool but the whole movie I kept thinking he looked like a Ghostbuster.

He does look like a Star Wars Ghostbuster. I'm sure that was a design influence.

Yeah I'm sure any of us could have come up with something a bit cooler than a vacuum cleaner with a chimney !!!

I would love to have the whole hero team, but a deluxe Cassian would my dream come true. Ideally he'd be packaged in his standard rebel uniform and would include his A280cfe (with attachments for sniper and assault rifle configurations), parka, cold weather pants, and blue vest. It's a lot to dream for, I know.

I'd like to see Bodhi Rook as well. He seems to be more overlooked than anyone. And he ended up being the titular character!

Re: Why no love for Hot Toys Krennic, Cassian and Baze ?

I would think Bodhi has no chance. Most boring character design. They should have hooked him up with some better gear at some point along the way. Maybe after the octopus molested him.

Rumor is Super DX ROTJ Vader....

Not really if you ask me. That's pretty much the treatment Jyn got and Cassian is none other than the co star of RO. The fact that HT didn't even care offering a regular version of Cassian is what's really puzzling here.

Any same person would have, at the least, changed clothes. But I guess when the side effects include losing one's mind...

Deluxe Cassian could be a two pack with the Rebel Spy he works with. I mean... worked with.

What's weird about Cassian is that he comes up with the idea of using a stolen Imperial Shuttle to transport Rebel Commandos to infiltrate an Imperial facility (part of a Rebel plan to destroy a Death Star,) using a stolen Imperial code to pass the blockade... and his last name is Andor.

I wonder if Endor was named in his honor?

It's unfortunate to put house cleaning lady Baze side by side such a marvelous characters as Krennic and Cassian. I can understand why Baze was scrapped. But Krennic and Katarn is a must. I mean, Krennic and Cassian.

Just a lazy screenwriting.

I heard Super DX Cassian was also a hot candidate......
