Ultra Probot???

[Darth Alex]

I've seen the rumors on other sites and since Hasbro promised around 6 new Ultra figures, this one would seem like a natural re-sculpt for them. Any one hear any rumors? I'd like to see a Probot with a clear stand-clear stem and maybe a snow-covered base. Instead of the HAZARD orange, make a red missle that doesn't seem so obvious. And if it's a re-sculpt, a nice, metallic finish with sharper, more-defined lines would be nice...

Sorry, I can't help you with rumors, but... That sound's awesome! I hadn't considered the Probot for a resculpt but it could deffinatly use it. I would love to see a probot with a more realistic movie-look. Just as long as he doesn't have any cheesy gimmicks like projectiles. He fired a laser int he movie, not a rocket.

Some other Ultras that I wouldn't midn seeing are:

-Han Solo w/ Carbonite block and wall section
-Biker Scout w/ Speeder Bike (in desperate need of a resculpt)
-Ewok warrior with catapult

At any rate, that would be sweet. Anybody out there hear any actual rumors about future Ultra figures??

[Darth Alex]

Good list, I'd buy em all.
And Hasblaw, if yer listening, make the Biker Scouts/Bikes in a whole case. Just a word to the wise...

New to this board, but a long time collector. I've not heard of anything proposed for this year, but I would certainly enjoy a large scale, window-boxed version of a Probot. Perhaps with a backdrop that would include a shield generator. This might be going out on a limb, but how 'bout an unleashed Probot with a self desruct mechanism?

Another great OTC Ultra would be Vader w/mediatation chamber. It was rumored but thats about it

-Han Solo w/ Carbonite block and wall section

That would be kinda cool, and for play/diorama value, the carbonite block could spin around to show an empty carbonite block.

We sorta had one - the Complete Galaxy Death Star w/ Darth Vader (with bending knees and partially removable helmet).

That would be great. I liked the Complete Galaxy one a lot, but a free-standing actual Ultra toy, with base to put an Imperial Officer and a GIANT Holo-Emperor head would be cool, too.

i quite like the old deluxe probe droid, even though it does have that rather pointless orange missile. i also like the way it stands nicely on its five 'feet'. i have always had a soft spot for it because it was so hard to find when it came out in the uk. and i found one

however, if hasbro could do a really nice, more accurate version on a clear stand then i would go for it.

don't see the need for a new han with carbonite block though. the old potf one was sitting on the shelves forever when it first came out and i always thought it was pretty good, and i like the empty block and figure that came with the card jabba's palace.

A new probot would be cool. Honestly... the Ultra series could just be brilliant if they would just let their imaginations run.
