any more 12 inch figures coming out? 12 inch versions of Scorch, Cody, alpha arc, or any of the newer design clones would get my dollar.

Hasbro, how bout the following... 1. SA Jango w/removeable bucket, so we can finally have a good one! 5. Stormie in black undersuit   The first one is rumored for this years AOTC, or possibly next year. The second one, wouldn't that just look like a deathstar trooper? Im under the impression they wear a black body glove like the clones. Obviously, the clones would be younger and have the Kaminoian markings. They could make an aged clone with imperial markings. Not a figure I'd bet they'd ever make but, I'd buy it f they did.

Maybe there is a market for 12' figures again. I say bring 'em on! I'd buy most clones and troopers. Esp the commanders! Gree, Cody and Bly to name a few!

Hasbro would you consider making these two battle packs?
1) Commander Durge with on his speeder bike with two of the black IG88 droids on two other bikes. 2) Commander Clone Armor Kenobi on his speeder bike with two clones behind him on two other bikes.
Thanks
Hasbro, how bout the following... 1. SA Jango w/removeable bucket, so we can finally have a good one! 2. Jango in fatigues 3. Clone in red fatigues 4. Clone in black undersuit... a better version than the deluxe one 5. Stormie in black undersuit   I would like to know about these too

Since you're making the first official black tunic officer (cmdr Praji), if he sells well will you make the badgless black tunic officers from the endor bunker? PLZ ask this.

THE latest:
1) Why can't you make a removable helmet figure that looks like the person still has a neck under the helmet? Or that actually looks natural? On every one of the removable helmet figures I can think of, the helmet either a) sits right on the shoulders, so it looks like there's no neck or b) the chin sticks out from the bottom of the helmet.
Thanks for the comment. While we don't think the actual picture is as dramatic as you suggest, matching up the head and helmet is somewhat tricky due to the different shrinkage rates of the heads and helmets during casting, plus the length of the neck which the factories have been known to modify to help with a fit issue. So it's not always easy to get the totally perfect fit. We'll take another look at this for future figures.
2) Can you give us anymore information about the General Grievous concept action figure that was shown at Celebration 4? It looks like it was originally intended to be an SDCC exclusive, but appears not to be one anymore. Is it going to be exclusive to another convention, or perhaps a retailer? And will it come with a TAC coin pack-in?
Yes, the concept Grievous figure is going to be a StarWarsOnlineShop.com exclusive that will be available shortly after Comic Con International. It was originally slated to be a Con figure, but schedule slips prevented it from being available in time, so the Shadow Scout Trooper will be the StarWarsOnlineShop.com exclusive for the event instead. The Grievous figure does indeed have a coin.
3) Any plans for making a Luke and Han Stormtrooper with removeable helmet now that we have the TAC Stormtrooper with removeable helmet figure available as a base?
At some point we will get to these figures for basic figure cards, but not for a while yet, since we will keep the successful comic 2-pack figures going for this year and into next.

Three questions, three lines of bulls**t.
1.We'll take another look at this for future figures.
2.but schedule slips prevented it from being available in time
3.At some point we will get to these figures for basic figure cards, but not for a while yet
bulls**t, bulls**t, bulls**t. I'm so sick and tired of hasblos same, lame excuses.
Just once I would like to see all of the online sites tell hasblo we will not submit any more questions until you are willing to give us straight up honest answers.

#3 has been asked before and, was answered the same every time! #1 I hope this doesn't put them off of making removeable helmet figure in the future becuase of the criticism!

I think that they cut and paste the same responses to the questions each time.

If everyone did that then Hasbro would just say "Alright have it your way" and there would be no more Q&A

What do you expect, Hasbro, is never going to openly admit, that they suck when it comes to answering questions from fans. I understand you can't give out all your secrets, but when people are making sound suggestions, they should really take the time and consider them. Before throwing it away like they always seem to do.

We can all assume now that hasbro is not going to plain flat out answer a question yes or no period. Doesnt make good business sense in their opinions. Plus, for them it is a business and they are not totally SW oriented even though that is probably thier biggest seller. We can only hope to keep asking our questions here, hope some of em make it to submission, and hope that every once in awhile they give us a clear answer, which I have to admit they have done through this forum every once in awhile. Thank you for asking the concept grevious question, I was wondering about that one.

I really wonder that no matter how Hasbro answers the questions, it still won't satisfy everyone. What don't you like about the current answers,
1. They have a differnce of opinion on how the figures look and understand that some changes were made when the manufacturing factory ramped up, they know they have some things to work out.
2. Basically they admit they didn't meet the deadline to get the figure done in time, you now know when it's comming and if you get the freaking coin. What more is there?
3. They basically say yes they will eventually do the Han and Luke stormies but not in the near future, they have the license for how many years anyhow, the last part about the comic packs is vague I admit and not relavent to the question.
Remember this critque is from me and I am not a supporter of Hasbro at all, infact I really don't buy much from them anymore anyway but we are picking the questions you ask, if you want more detailed answers ask the questions differntly. The thrid question is basically a yes or no answer, why is the answer they gave bulls**t? you can't expect to get every figure collectors want in the current year.

I also view it as pretty cool that they even started it in the first place. Even I need to try to not be so critical, if they can honestly say this is the best they can do what can you really say?

I was wondering with the success of the Mcquarrie figs, if you would think about possibly making a few regular figure size vehicles of Mcquarrie's original art? Imperial walker perhaps;D I would also love to see you do a full size version of your action fleet prototypes that you did a few years ago. Concept to actual vehicle, full size please!

we could say, "good job"? at least more about the stuff that we like. I suppose that if our views sound overall negative to them, they might, and do, cast a more tactful approach, to their postings to us. the more they like us, the more attention we get. Us, the fledgling capitol of the collectors guild. If we could honor our likes in their greater achievements, while offering gentle,or less intemmidating suggestions, simultanieously, after a while, our interactions could turn twards us actually getting what we ask for. I'm only babbling, really, It could happen, I guess. Good job on the 3 3/4 v-wing, by the way! It's got to be the most accurate star wars vehicle that I have ever bought. Correct Scale, Great Detail......I wish I had 10 of em...  I was wondering with the success of the Mcquarrie figs, if you would think about possibly making a few vehicles of Mcquarrie's original art? Imperial walker perhaps  Hey Tamer: I could handle one of those...Is that the same design as the micro-machine concept released years ago?

from what i have seen, there are alot of people that would like to see characters from the novels. with this in mind, have you considered doing a comic 2-pack of the one-shot leviathan? it could include kyp durron and either dorsk 82 or streen. also besides the baron fel/hobbie kilvain 2-pack, are you considering anymore 2-packs based on the rogue squadron comics?

As long as they do an Isard figure, I will be happy. The "Rouge Squadron" comic two packs are we can get some some cool alien pilots and a Sate Pestage figure. Thinking about it, they could do a whole line on just the RS comic.
