New Clone Wars and rumors
-
Star Wars Q and A highlights
-
There are no plans to release these characters at this time, and the more that the original Clone Wars series fades into memory the less likely it is that we will get to any more characters from the series.
-
Right now, they are on the plan for later this Fall. If it stays on schedule – and there is still no guarantee – there will be some cool upgraded figures in there (including one new one). Sorry, but no Pablo Jill this time.
-
We will confirm that a young Clone Wars Boba figure is on the way. As for Slave I – we cannot confirm nor deny. You will have to stay tuned.
-
Why have Battle Packs never been packed with DVD’s?
Our DVD program has been focused on pack-ins for role play, such as “greatest lightsaber battles” since this can often be an extra plus up for consumers who haven’t yet gotten a lightsaber and help expand our promotional window. The intention of Battle Packs is to showcase figure value, and DVDs would add cost that would cause us problems with this model. There are some things brewing though where we will use DVDs in conjuction with figures, but those details are under wraps.

It’s the trench coat Rebel, similar to the one that Sideshow just did.

Yes, there will be a $20 sign-up fee for the 2011 subscription, which covers the subscription-only figure (like Wun-Dar was). We are working in more shipping options all the time but nothing to announce quite yet.
