Two Anakins in one wave? No way.
Obi-Wan has been confirmed for a while now.
Owen and Beru would be too good to be true . . . but why no Cliegg?!?
I wonder if Jango will be a more accurate version of his purple self?
Tarados Gon would be cool if true. As with the whole list, we'll wait and see.

Even I don't know who Tarados Gon is.
Owen is the only one worth getting excited over. But this is still rumor at this point.Tommy, close your eyes.

Tarados Gon is the Klatooinian Jedi who survived on Geonosis at least until the clones arrived. Originally Posted by El Chuxter

Thanks to sebillba for the trade!

However I wouldnt put it past them, and then they can say they catered for both PT and OT (which is a lie because they would have to make new figures of the PT versions, where they just repacked crap figures in the OT one). Oh and they will most probably reduce the price as well, the OT collector usually gets shafted the most.

That seems a bit harsh. Why would you say that? Look at how much OT stuff we've gotten in the past, even in movie years when it would've been justified to not get any at all. I think Hasbro is giving us a good mix of everything, and if you don't like the price - don't buy it. But even though many of us complain about prices, many of us will fold and end up buying it anyway. Originally Posted by cookiemonster

Anakin # 1 - Probably a repack/retool of the EVO figure with a new accessory, and maybe w/ the new style hip joints. Yawn.
Anakin # 2 - Probably a resculpt of the Outland Peasant outfit. The first one was good enough. Yawn again.
Beru Lars - I know she's badly wanted by alot of collectors, but she doesn't excite me. Would rather a new OT version. Yawn.
Owen Lars - See above.
Captain Typho - Was a resculpt really needed of this guy? Not in my mind. This one's a maybe.
Clone Trooper - Very vague, could be anything. Pass.
Jango Fett - I'm happy with the EVO version so will probably pass on this.
Obi-Wan - I have enough PT Obi-Wans. Pass
Tarados Gon - Probably the only figure I will buy from this wave.Most wanted "bottom-of-the-barrel scrapes": ANH: Kal'Falnl C'ndros, Revwien (concept art), Tzizvvt ESB: Wiorkettle, Treva Horme ROTJ: Cane Adiss, Loje Nella TPM: Edcel Bar Gane AOTC: Rogwa Wodrata ROTS: Mon Calamari Dancer, Veedaaz Awmetth, Eeusu Estornii EU: Guri (red outfit), Ket Maliss

Why do I say the OT has been shafted this year, does it need spelling out Cane.
Errr they actually did do this with ROTS figures, I can count on one hand how many figures were available for OT that year.
SAGA was heavily stacked against the OT Collector.
Even the OTC line was just major re-packs with a few new figures added in.
TAC and TSC lines where good for the OT collector, but even then, not as good as it could have been.
And then we get to this year, can you count how many waves of OT figures there is on one hand, dont include ANH as this is more than likely going to be next year, compared to PT waves (and yes I am including the Basic Clone Wars wave in this).
Now I do collect the PT figures, well the Animated New Style Clone Wars ones in anycase.
The other PT figures I get if I think I can use them eventually when I move, for custom work.
