Hasbro wants our Questions:

[TAMER]

Dear Hasbro now that you are releasing darth mauls sith infiltrator, what are the chances of seeing assaj ventress' ship, general grevious ship and count dooku's solar sailer for the 3 3/4" scale figure line?




Does this sum up what we've been talking about?

yeah, and an ATTE too and any heavy tank type vehicle! I know I know this has been asked already. You cant blame a guy for wanting what he wants daggone it!

[darthdan]

Yeah I really want the at-te and turbo tank too.

[Iggy wan kenobi]

I got a couple many probably had been asked before but i know many like me ( vintage to new collectors) think these should be done.

1. A new Death star playset. Whats up with hasbro not doing such an iconic thing? Collectors will love to have a death star  and kids will love to swing Luke and leia on the rope and also dump them on the trash compactor. Prevously we seen or had 2 cardboard playsets back in the days, now we are just asking for a nicer one today.

2. A New version of the twin cloud car. I know it is not the HOTTER vehicle of the saga, but i understand many vintage collectors still have their originals, but many newer collectors never got a chance to get one. It shouldnt be that hard, hasbro is still using the same molds from the old days for new ships.

3. A star new star destroyer playset.  Making collectors happy and kids will be allowed to have their vader figures walking the bridge and sitting him on his meditation chamber. 

4. A han Solo in torture chamber, never has been done.

5.  12" bespin Leia. Unproduced on the past, no even reconsidered these days.   

6. Underoos Remember those ? Just kidding guys. Worry if you see a guy at our age range running in boba fett or 3po underoos around a place. 

This are just some of things I remember so far and some where already mentioned in this thread before.

the han in torture chamber is being done this year.

[TAMER]

I would love to buy my little gal a set of underoos. That is not a stupid question at all!

[Mithel]

The reason why you made figures from the, "Force Unleashed," game, is because it is a multi-media event.(books, comics, toys, and games)  But my question is if these sell well, will you make more characters from other videogames, like the 7 Dark Jedi, from Dark Forces II?

Plz ask this.   

[darthdan]

I thought I had read in one of the Q&A's on another website that the vintage cloud car mold had been lost and was no longer available.

[jedibrian77]

You did. It's true.

[Jedi Scholar 8]

Which in itself is a tragedy, but let's be honest: If Hasbro wanted to make one of these, a new mold would be created anyway.  I think it's high time we got a new one of these bad boys, and I'd have to grab a couple at least myself!

Pat

[darthdan]

yeah new sculpt I'd buy one or two myself

[jedibrian77]

Honestly. If this is a boys toy what ship reminds boys of a flashy red sports car..........THE CLOUD CAR!

[Lt. Starfox]

Dear Hasbro, Since you lost your original molds, if I give you my vintage complete Cloud Car, will you break it down and use if for a mold to make new ones?

[Bloodant]

Now that's funny!

[odiewan]

Do the answers for the Hasbro Questions appear on this board on on the main site?

Where are previous Q&A posted for this group?

[Jedi Scholar 8]

The answers are posted here in this thread.  Start at page 1 and work on through, and you'll come across them all.  I believe Hasbro is due to give us some answers this week, if I am not mistaken.

[Darth Spice]

They are all in THIS thread so you can start back to page 1 and go from there. We do not collect information from other websites, nor do I ask my forum mods to spend countless hours weeding through every single website. With this thing not going away any time soon, I'm sure something will be asked more than once, however I won't jump up and down and act like it's a crime if a question gets wasted! 

[Darth Spice]

THE LATEST:

Hasbro, will there be more holographic figures, if not this year in the future?  We have yet to see Anakin; or Imperial officers, such as Admiral Piett; and there are others I'm sure that would make effective figures. These make a nice addition to my collection, and would love to see a few more from time to time.

1) We're glad you like them, Troops. They are cool to do, in measure, and we haven't ruled out the possibilities that we'll do some more at some point.

So on a Star Wars catalog included with my Battlepack it states that there will be a #30 C-3PO with Salacious Crumb.  Will Salacious Crumb be a repaint or an all new sculpt?  And will the C-3PO have an eye hanging out of it's socket?

2) He will be all-new, and the answer to your last question is…yes.   

The reason why you made figures from the, "Force Unleashed," game, is because it is a multi-media event (books, comics, toys, and games).  But my question is if these sell well, will you make more characters from other video games, like the 7 Dark Jedi, from Dark Forces II?

3) Great question, Troops, that touches on the several exciting directions the Star Wars franchise is headed from here on out.  While movie characters will continue to remain our focus for the main basic figure line (which should have many fans breathing a sigh of relief!) it's no great secret that other entertainment media such as videogames, comics, and novels are making seismic waves in their respective areas because of fundamentally great storytelling that is uniquely Star Wars.  When LucasArts shared their plans with us, we were blown away and new that this was an important new story and we needed to partner with them on bringing these characters to life (so to speak) sooner rather than later.  We'd like to think that this, just like we are doing with the Clone Wars animation, is a great model for keeping the Star Wars line fresh and exciting.  We are looking at some of the other previous games for inspiration as well.  Although there are no plans for Dark Forces figures right now, we will be looking at them for future possibilities.

That sucks   

[Iggy wan kenobi]

but still no answer form big H about the playsets, cloud car or the underoos   

[Mithel]

Thx for again askin my question Darth Spice.  Sandtroopers is so much better for askin specific questions, unlike other sites...cough "rebelscum" cough.   

[Jedi Scholar 8]

Glad we could help you out Mithel.  Please, ask away, and we do try to get as many out as we can.  Now, I actually have one of my own...

Since the release of the Force Unleashed game has been delayed, as has been the toy line, will Hasbro be inserting a new, unannounced wave into that time frame that was originally slotted for the Force Unleashed figures, or will there be a large gap in waves?

they answered this on other sites q&a's. hasbro says they will be moving the wave behind force unleashed up so there will not be a lag in figures.

[Jedi Scholar 8]

Thanks for the answer Jacen!  I was hoping for an entire new line there at the end to cover for the lack.  Oh well.

Alright Hasbro gave us a straight answer to my question

[Lin Que]

I really love the Titanium line, however the recent increase in repaints scares me into thinking that Hasbro "may" be running low on ship ideas.  I would love to see the inclusion of more video game/comic/cartoon vehicles (i.e. TIE Hunter, Outrider, and more specifically the TX-130, AT-XT, and the much beloved Torrent Starfighter).  I think these would be welcome additions and breathe much needed diversity to the line.  Has Hasbro thought of including more non film vehicles as opposed to repaints??

I have multiples of just about every clone you guys crank out (keep up the good work!!).  Sadly my forces don't have many vehicles to defend the Republic.  I know the 19.99 price point is where you want to keep vehicles.  Without tipping your hand (to much ) Can you tell us your thoughts on a 19.99 Torrent Starfighter, AT-XT, or TX-130?  The latter two are from the Clone Wars video game (which I know will be a focus for Hasbro as the animated series arrives).

[Artoo]

Finally a new Salacious! The last one looked like a PVC version of Wile E. Coyote, just painted like Salacious.

Dont forget the -19 Torrent Starfighter!

[Bloodant]

Dear Hasbro,
 I would like to know if you would entertain the idea of a Tie-Defender star fighter, it could be a TRU Exclusive at the 44.99 price point, and to start off sales, negotiate TRU into a Buy one get one free special.
