1/6 NEXT Hot Toys STAR WARS Figure...?

[darth dennis]

On the bright side, in 2023 I am going to be rich. Except for the scout and speeder, I won’t have anything on order by then (if my current 12 preorders ever ship). Famous last words...

Yeah I said that going into Infinity War as I hadn't purchased a single Marvel HT or statue and was solely Star Wars. Watched Infinity War and now have about 45 HT, 5 Iron Studios 1/4 and every dang one of their 1/10 dio pieces. Ugh.

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

Oh look, the 8th Dr. Strange release from HT. How exciting...

 

[MyenShi]

I fear that you are right fantasticfrog. With the upcoming shows slated to drop Dec. and next year, they'll primarily focus on that I'm guessing. I do hope in the Kenobi series that they have flashback scenes of Obi and Anakin in their respective armour in the early stages of the Clone Wars.

It’s rumored they’ll be doing exactly that.

I would not give up hope on a TCW Obi-Wan just yet. Obi-Wan is a popular character and it wouldn’t be the first time a figure has gone up for pre-order after a long absence.

It’s possible they’re waiting till it’s closer to the show to synergize with as they like to do.

Hopefully with the 212th Clones after the 501sf and Coruscant Guard have sold out or are closer to.

I personally don’t want to pick up the TCW Anakin without Obi-Wan. I’d think some others out there might feel the same.

I was in the camp of not picking up General Anakin until Kenobi went up but finally caved as I'll display him with Ahsoka and Rex...

 

[RandomHero]

Oh, right. Ahsoka. That's still a thing we're waiting on. I forgot Hot Toys made Star Wars stuff for a might.

 

[DakRen]

Oh, right. Ahsoka. That's still a thing we're waiting on. I forgot Hot Toys made Star Wars stuff for a might.

Hang in there we will get something soon.

even CW Kenobi shows up now you'd probably have to wait 2 years+ for him. CW Anakin pairs nicely with the 501st and Ahsoka.

I really hope as the Obi-Wan series gets closer that they do release the figure, but no one can figure out Hot Toys. As far as picking up TCW Anakin, I thought exactly like darth dennis.....

[LipSmack]

I think that CW obi will go up as soon as Anakin releases, I'm not too worried about him. I am curious to see what comes of the Kenobi series, an ep3 reissue would be amazing and probably has a quick turn around,

I'm kind of bummed that we ll never see a Cara Dune, I really like the end of season ensemble, though we ll probably never get a Grief either,

And ones I'm hoping to see sooner than later, 212 airborne trooper, phase 1 clone, clone pilot (ep 2 or 3 honestly) and I'd really love for and EP 1 or 2 obiwan, ep1 to finish off the trio, and he's my child hood fave, ep2 cause Jango needs a sparing buddy, and maybe HT would do a V1 clone wars fig using his head

How many times have I told myself that, then its:

" Oh look Hasegawa Macross Regult and Eaglemoss Classic Colonial Shuttle."

You know how it goes.

 

[matticus]

Starting to see D+ shows get the HT reveals AFTER the show ends. Possible to assume this for BoBF and Kenobi. Fennec already has some rifle butt stock throwing knives that are new.

 

[Ramatuelle]

AM NOT A FAN OF HOW ALL THIS IS BEING HANDLED. I HAVE SPOKEN.

Not that they CARE I'm not a fan, but just saying.

There is not one reason in the universe for us to have to wait till AFTER the show for a Fennec preorder. Other stuff, like maybe some other bounty hunters, okay I can see it.

"Star Wars fans are boycotting..." In other words, 5 screeching lunatics on Twitter.

 

[Chainedstream]

Wtf? What a bunch of snowflakes. Boycotting a game because of previous accusations? Some boycotts are just too far stretched. If it was a boycott of a company using slave labour or practicing harmful/toxic working conditions in their factories, like some western companies in Bangladesh and India or factories in the Xinjiang province, I would understand it and support it. But this? Nope.

 

[Dave_W]

Star Wars fans can be a special kind of crazy. None of the companies other games got boycotted.

All fans of the The High Republic and also probably think TLJ is the greatest Star Wars film.
Surprised they haven't called out George.

 

[Ramatuelle]

Nobodys actually boycotting this. This game is several years away from release and by that time these fools are going to be several parsecs away on Outrage Tour 2026, thinking that someone cares about their opinions.

And being sadly wrong, just like usual.

 

[matticus]

I say ban the game cause it is coming from the Disney Story Group.
