Guaranteed there’s going to be a bunch of new figures from episode seven of The Mandalorian.

OT, Andor, maybe the odd PT figure like TPM Obi-Wan. This Mando series is an abomination and I’m steering clear of anything from it, it has even stained some of my figures from the first 2 seasons like the s2 Mando, durasteel is the definitive one to me as that’s when he was a badass and far removed from being Bo-Katan’s old house cat.

The last missing piece to complete Anakin's tragic life at this point is TPM slave little Ani.
jkno
Stormtrooper
I'm still interested in the OT Imperials that were not made but shown, or in some that need to be made:
Death Star Trooper/Navy Trooper
Snow Commander
Sandtrooper (the other 2)
Death Star Droid
Veers in AT-AT armor
Other OT officers
And I might buy my only non-OT Imperial Hot Toys figure, if they make a Jar-Jar. I would move him on the collection shelves in funny poses. Maybe I'll try looking for a good 1/6 Mr. Bean figure as well. BTW any recommendations for a nice 1/6 Mr. Bean?

Not sure how possible it’d be considering the actor and what he’s been through. Although I’m sure he’d welcome the money in his pocket.
I’m hoping for the anniversary that you get two options:
1) Slave Ani (aka Boba’s Starship Abi) with Podracer. I think this might actually sell well.
2) End of film Padawan Ani. This could come only in a 2-pack option with Obi-Wan (who of course would also be sold separately).
If they make 1 then they might as well give option 2.
I'd love to see an OT TIE Pilot - don't really mind under what packaging banner (ROTJ 40th, Mando, Andor etc). (I'd also really like Poe Dameron, but since the founder doesn't like the ST movies that's unlikely to happen.)

There’d be a lot more than packaging differences between a ROTJ 40th/OT TIE Pilot release and a Rogue One derived RO/Mando/Andor one.
No preference?
Poe would be the only ST figure I’d consider since I have a pilot focus but yeah, definitely unlikely.

Yeah, I just figure having no preference would just mean more chances to see one! I think the jumpsuit for Rogue One is a shiny shellsuit rather than fabric? But honestly, if that's true I only know that because of the Sideshow releases and not because of my observant eye.

Yes that is correct, the RO jumpsuit is nylon instead of fabric. Some minor differences throughout but mainly the helmet and armor are also very different.
I suppose at this point, most would agree and be happy if Hot Toys made either version. Unfortunate they haven’t taken the opportunity for the RO with the Disney+ appearances.
I’d like for them to do the OT version first but I certainly wouldn’t say no to the RO either even though I still have the SSC.
I would kind of like a Ghost Anakin... Not sure how they would do it though....

Truth be told I would buy young Anakin. I mean really why not? You could either do it alone or a two pack with Jar Jar or long shot Watto. We’d need a Padawan Obi-Wan though too.

The ones you refer to as dark troopers were actually Imperial Super Commandos (phase 2) and there was both standard white amd white with red markings versions of those (trooper and officer I presume) so a 2 pack is possible.Guaranteed there’s going to be a bunch of new figures from episode seven of The Mandalorian.
The new darktrooper armour Gideon wears would be cool and it suggests that maybe a new darktrooper will appear in next episode...
Praetorian guard might end up being a single realease with 3 weapons I expect.
IG-12 and Grogu are almost certain.
Plus there is possibility of flashback clones from earlier episode (standard, 501st and Coruscant Guard, all easy repaints) though I expect they would likely only do the Coruscant guard as they have other versions of plain and 501st just released or up for order.

They look a lot better than the lobster versions in TLJ. They remind me a bit of the Mandalorians from the Old Republic.

I went right to this too. I'm under the impression that they were trying to combine the way they looked in TLJ with the Royal Guard look from ROTJ, but my mind went straight to The Old Republic. My desperate mind was hoping it was an easter egg to it becoming canon again lol
The T visor is also reminiscent of the phase 1 clone. Gonna be hard to say no to the (eventual) Hot Toys incarnation.

So who had Batman with Armory setup for $565 on on their bingo card for next pre-order to go up?
Glad I wasn't the only one! I was thinking old school The Old Republic, which makes sense with Gideon and his obsession with the Mandalorian culture.
