Even more TRU exclusives

[Mr. JabbaJohnL]

From the front page of good ol' SSG, here's some more TRU exclusives for this year:

Classic X-Wing with Wedge - October

Jedi Starfighter with Anakin - May 15
Jedi Starifighter with Obi-Wan Kenobi - August/September
Carrying Case with 2 Bonus Figures - September
5 Piece Figure Value Pack - October
Holographic Anakin Skywalker (Promo similar to Holographic Yoda) - November

M&M's Plush Buddies (4 waves, 16 total) - July through September

Another X-wing? I suppose, as long as the Wedge doesn't suck. If they have to rehash a figure, they should use the one from the Rebel Pilots Cinema Scene. Hopefully they'll include a droid this time . . . but I'm not betting on it.

We already know about the Anakin Starfighter.

I bet Obi-Wan's Fighter will be the one he takes to Utapau, with R4-G9 as the co-pilot. I like the design of this one better anyway.

If they absolutely have to release another carry case, they should have it be C-3PO since WM already had Vader. If there's nothing new about the figures, I'll pass. The smart thing to do would be to include two clones, with their rifles. Hello Hasbro, are you listening . . .?

I wonder, is the five-pack similar to those four-packs they had for a while, or could it be the battle packs? Or are those exclusive to Target?

I hope the Anakin turns out to be a ghost, but if not, we can still use the holo as one (just with less paint than Obi-Wan). I seriously doubt that they'll use any color on him. A holo Ani would be fine too, though.

Think I'll pass on the M&M's buddies, unless one of them really catches my eye.

I like how TRU is trying to have people go there more for their business, because they'll get mine for at least some of these exclusives.

When is someone @ HASBRO gonna realize this: The only way to get those cases to really sell is to put an exclusive figure with them. I still have 2 Millennium Falcon cases that are just sitting collecting dust, because of the exclusive Wedge & Scanning Crew Trooper that came with them.

Also, I doubt that the Obi-Wan Starfighter will be anything new. It will probably be the one that was just released with the #56 Obi-Wan Kenobi (Red Leader pilot) as a pack-in.

I'll probably pass on all except the Holographic Anakin Skywalker and M&M plush buddies. I know my wife will definitely want the M&Ms, and (if it has decent articulation) I'd love to have a holographic Anakin to kneel in front of my Episode 1 holographic Darth Sidious.

holo ani !?!?!? more waiting and ebay losers !!!

It's people like you that keep new people from joining these boards. What does ebay have to do with anything here? I would blame TRU for only getting in 36 Yodas each. What are you 12? If you are going to curse, at least spell it right.

If they absolutely have to release another carry case, they should have it be C-3PO since WM already had Vader.

NO, NO, NO, no, no, no. No more 3PO cases, please. Let's get something fresh. Maybe a clone trooper head, or a wookie head. Something that is completely new. And yes, they definitely need exclusive figure(s) with it.

I'm curious to see what that 5 pack is suppose to be. Other than that and possibilty of a good holo fig for anakin, Im not all that impressed.

they need to make a greivous case, or at least a clone trooper case.
