Rumor List!

[Battle Droid]

From, http://potf2.com/potj/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=12901

Its rumor time again I suppose. I got an email just now from a source in China with a list of figures that they were expecting to have this year. The list had a bunch of stuff we already have heard about but there was an interesting heading for Clone Wars with these 19 names under it:

Anakin Skywalker
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Yoda
Federation Battle Droid
R2-D2
Captain Rex
General Grievous
Clone Trooper
Ahsoka with Rotta the Hutt
Count Dooku
Commander Cody
Oddball
Super Battle Droid
Clone Trooper
C-3PO
Kit Fisto
Asajj Ventress
Destroyer Droid
IG-series Assasin Droid

Are there any photos of Cody in phase 1 armor? It would seem wierd for him to have his ROTS armor while all the others have the older style.

Not a bad list, though I have most of those in figure form already. I really hope they aren't animated. If so that's 19 figures I'm going to pass up.

IG Assasin Droid. Repaint of IG-88 or Ig Lancer?

Commander Cody in Phase 1 armor (my favorite) would be totally rad!

You know Grievous has to be made for Clone Wars, I just hope it's a new retooled larger figure.

Everything save Ahoka with Rotta the Hutt and Oddball (??) were kinda expected. Though I've been reading some thread here at SSG about a baby Hutt.

I heard a rumor that they're going to be making clones in this line. I wonder if that's true?

This isn't really a rumor list so much as it is a list of characters we know will be in the show and were shoo-ins for the line.

Blue2th, Oddball was the clone pilot that flies with Obi-Wan and Anakin in the beginning of ROTS.

There's also a rumor that the Jedi will have lightsabers.

I heard a rumour. They say you have a broken heart.

Well said! We need a properly scaled Grievous.

Whatever happend to them? Much better than the Spice Girls.

With split apart arms. That would be great if they could pull it off.

I'm pretty sure I read in one of the Q&A sessions that Hasbro is not planning on doing any figures in the animated style. Now I was pretty sure that meant even for the new CW line. It seems like if they do it in the animated style a lot of collectors will skip them but if they don't make them unique no one is going to buy it just because it's on a new card. If Hasbro wants this line to succeed they all have to be new figures, right?

If i recall right they said the line would be realistic and not animated because it would confuse people about whats what...personally i don't think we need animated styled figures...they were cool but not something i want to make apart of my collection...so i hope they do realistic style here with these espically with the new characters bound to show up here and there.
