Hot toys wizard says we are getting Mace and Bespin Han very soon!

Does hot toys Wizard have a good track record or? Never heard of that guy

No one really knows anything substantial beyond what’s generally already known but some people like to pretend they do louder than others for monetization purposes.

An educated and/or lucky guess might get some attention and clout until they inevitably miss the mark the next time.
 
Since HT seems like they can’t get a new Han, how would you all feel if they reissued the ANH version/Chewy 2 pack?

Slight updates to the paint, boots, body etc but same sculpt. A reissue of an already reissued 2 pack, I know, but there are so many new collectors who don’t have an OT Han.

Most collectors are waiting reissues / new versions of some older figures. I don't think this is happening except on anniversaries. I wouldn't even think of that until they started with the "Vintage" collection boxes. I just hope they use their resources and add on to the ATOC line at this point since this is the anniversary year. Mace and Padame are a must at this point. Most will add Anakin and Obiwan to that list.
 
So we might get TF exclusives sometime this weekend if they follow the pattern of the last 2 years.

Yeah if Padme and Mace don't happen now I don't know if we'll ever see them. Sure there's the Revenge of the Sith anniversary, but I'd argue that their most impactful 'action figure' moments as characters come in AOTC. Of course I'd love to see them go deep with Padme similar to Leia (I would LOVE a Queen Amidala on Throne), but at this point I think the best and only chance we have is the white outfit from the end of AOTC. For Mace, Jango is just such an easy proximity piece it just has to be done, right? Sure, he has that fight with Palpatine in ROTS, but he gets mutilated at the end, I don't think that's anywhere as 'awesome' an action figure to own as his AOTC appearance. If they aren't shown here...I fear a Bespin Han fate awaits them.

At the same time, Hot Toys don't make a lot of sense, especially with something like Cad coming out of nowhere after not being shown at Celebration. You can't predict them. I just feel in terms of probability, these next 6 months are our best shot at getting these two characters- and therefore this is the last real opportunity in a convention/showcase setting.
