"Han Solo"- what the hizzy? I assume this is going to be some figure ni the line from the OT, but that wouldn't make sense. This should be interesting.'

Everything else looks yummy though!! I can't wait...but i'm sure my checking account can.

[mericen]

It is a nice looking list. But no C-3PO? They have to make one of him. The others are all cool. I can not wait.

[Tycho]

"Han Solo"- what the hizzy? I assume this is going to be some figure ni the line from the OT, but that wouldn't make sense. This should be interesting.'

I've been posting it for 2 years: I think Han Solo was bred from a new DNA source for Clones.

These are ROTS figures. Han will be 11 years old (or about 4 years in Clone Years, growth accelerated so that he looks to be about 11 years old - sort of like the 5 year old versions of Jango, who were played by Danniel Logan who also played the 10 year old Boba Fett.)

This is still speculation, but I swear I look forward to saying "I Told You So!" in a few months.


The Luke Skywalker figure will be an infant with "escape accessories" - I'll post more when I get that totally confirmed. It is also a ROTS figure, not an OTC issue.

[LTBasker]

Maybe Luke will be a fetus in a jar. Much like Dr. Fretters Family of Freaks from McFarlane, perhaps we'll be getting 21-B's Family of Freaks.

Han can be the cop-out in a jar.

Maybe we'll actually get a decent Super Battle Droid this time that can stand and has it's wrist turned to the side.

[Tycho]

I think the Tantive IV escape pod, yes the same one that was for Ultra C-3PO, will take up the main space in Luke's blister package, with the VERY young Jedi likely not being poseable at all, but basically a prop.

Hasbro trying to make a cheap buck off stuff they've just re-carded.

In any event, it will look cooler carded on the ROTS card and (I guess because I didn't buy 3PO) Obi-Wan sold separately can fit in the pod to take Luke to Tatooine.

[Mr. JabbaJohnL]

Interesting how we've seen carded pics of R2-D2 but he's not even on the list. Also, Palpatine hasn't been "senator" since TPM. Something's fishy with this list . . . I doubt we'll get all those figures in 2005, then there wouldn't be any to make for a few years.

I'm betting that Han Solo was a misprint, and I doubt we'll get a Luke, unless he's with Padmé.

EDIT: http://www.starwars-universe.com/fic...asp?ac_id=4207

Have a look at that French website, it looks like Rebelscum copied their list from there. It seems like Luke and Han might just be OT figures after all, since they're in the same wave, but I can't tell for sure. It also says that Meditation Chamber Vader is the 500th figure.

[Tycho]

I think though while I may be one of the people jumping the gun and coming to conclusions, it doesn't make sense for all the stuff to be ROTS, and just 3 figures (Luke, Han, and Vader) to be Classic.

I think the mistakes are like this:

Vader is MEDICAL CHAMBER VADER (not meditation chamber - though since that term's been around since 1980, it's an easy goof).

I red about a Medical Chamber playset where you "build" Anakin into Darth Vader and this would make an incredible 500th Figure that makes sense in light of an all-E3 shipping period.

Again, Han and Luke could be the pre-teen and infant versions, with Clone gear and an escape pod.


THE REVERSE ARGUMENT - they're classic figures:

Vader is in the Meditation Chamber (ESB) due to the 500th Anniversary being more appropriately dedicated to Classic Star Wars.

Han and Luke are their OT counterparts (geeze, hope for Carbonite Deluxe and Endor Deluxe versions - it's about time already!)

The rest of the main Classic Cast will be available (almost):

Leia - NO
Chewie - Yes
R2D2 - yes
C-3PO - eventually for sure
Darth Vader - yes
Obi-Wan Kenobi - the ROTS version, but yes, he'll be available in "Ewan-form"
Stormtrooper - the ROTS clones are pretty close

That takes care of the original 9.

Then:

Boba Fett? - No - but his Slave-One is out everywhere and there may yet be some secret E3 appearance.

Lando Calrissian - No - but you know how I think Han is a Clone and that it's possible for Lando, another main character who's origins have never been explained. It'd explain Lando's lack of fear of Boba Fett, as well as his skills.

Yoda - yes, definitely in multiple forms.

Palpatine - yes, also in multiple forms.

Jabba the Hutt - No - but not really relevant to this collection and the basic playing of Star Wars, plus a 2004 release, so he was just out there.

So therefore only 4 out of 14 basic main-characters from Classic Star Wars will not be available during the ROTS release.

SO OK - LUKE AND HAN MIGHT BE CLASSIC.


What about other prequel characters? Will almost the entire collection be available?

Anakin- yes
Obi-Wan - yes
Qui-Gon - no, unless a ghost figure becomes applicable
Padme - not yet, but quite likely. I think they are struggling with the pregnancy
JarJar - no, but likely at some point. I'm sure he'll fart in E3 or something like that.
Darth Maul - no, but we have more Sith and baddies than ever released for 1 movie
BattleDroid (standard) - probably. Just not up front, since there have been plenty.

Mace - yes
Yoda - yes
Dooku - yes
Kit Fisto (not a mainline, but included last time - and yes, so far as I've heard)
Jango Fett - No - but a clone with a removeable helmet is pretty close
Super Battle Droid - yes


OK - It's possible that Luke and Han and Vader in Meditation Chamber are the only OT figures we'll get in 2005 (for the spring-summer anyway) but the majority of the other main-stream characters will be available one way or another.

[Mr. JabbaJohnL]

When AOTC came out in 2002, we got Bespin Luke, Bespin Vader, Qui-Gon, Endor Rebel Soldier, Han, Bepsin Chewie, Djas Puhr, Darth Maul, Ephant Mon, Teemto Pagalies, and Lott Dod, none of whom appeared in AOTC (unless you say the other Neimoidian is Lott Dod). It's entirely possible we'll get OT or TPM/AOTC figures a few weeks after the initial ROTS figures, with different movies listed on their nametags.

I believe the Anakin/Vader change will be either a regular figure or deluxe, hell, it has both on the list. I bet the ESB meditation chamber is what we'll get for number 500.

[JEDIpartner]

Did anyone see the prototype for the Palpatine figure from the Screen Scene? It looks great! He's posed in a battle stance and appears to have one ball-jointed arm (the right one). Here's the kicker... his face looks like the emperor's face!!

Not THAT is cool...
