What action figure from media other than TFA would you like to see made for The
« on: August 18, 2015, 07:46:13 AM »
I wanted to see what other folks thought of this proposal. After SDCC it was revealed that we'd be getting Ahsoka, Kanan and Revan for the 6" Black Series Line. What other figures would you like to see produced? I'm thinking from sources such as Rebels, the comics, video games(SWTOR, Battlefront, Uprising, etc), novels, etc etc. And in either 3 3/4" or 6"?
My personal choices would be Xesh and Trill from Dawn of the Jedi and a ton of characters from SWTOR

Wow, so much material. Frankly I think we need more Sith from multiple novels, comics, time frames, etc.

I am also a big fan of Shadows of the Empire and would love to see a revised super articulated line from that too. Fat chance of it happening, but it would be cool just the same.

Anythings possible Tamer. If they continue the fans polls we could see more figures like Revan. Do you remember when The Force Unleashed games came out? We still crave Galen Marek figures. I always wanted Guri and Spyker from SOTE.  You would hope that since now Marvel is producing Star Wars comics again we will see some action figure comic packs as well.

Guri is definitely one I would love to see in SA form.

I agree Tamer. Dash needs an update badly, and it would be great to finally get a Leebo figure. I would have loved to see these comic packs:

Dash and Leebo
Xizor and Guri
Leia and Chewbacca (Snoova disguise)
Luke and Lando (Imperial Guard disguises)

Some Imperial guards would've been nice. Also a Luke figure as he appeared on the cover of the novel, with the tan vest. I made my own but would have been cool to get an "official" release of that figure. It's so easy to make.

And an updated (and accurate) Outrider would be great. I'd want it exactly as the Micro Machines version. I have the Titanium version and while its much closer to how it looks then the POTF toy, it just seems a bit bulky at the back. The MM version is the only one they got the design right.

So while we are on the subject of EU figures, any others you like to see?

I would love to see some I.M.P.S. characters. Especially those AT-AT Heavy Gunners.

Funny you should mention I.M.P.S Tamer, just watched it again this week. Great idea though and the female scout walker driver not to mention the shuttle pilots would be great figures .

I have a female AT-AT Driver custom and she is the highlight of my collection. We need more SW Female Figures period.

Agreed on the IMPS figures.
I think we need Kal Skirata, Munin Skirata and Walon Vau.
Absolutely.

Oh yeah, a ton of the Karen Traviss RC Novel characters would be cool. Daggone I wish they hadn't ticked her off so she could have finished off that series.

Absolutely.
I love Karen's stories, can't tell how many times I've read the novels.

They could easily do "family" battlepacks with Etain, Dar and Kad, Papa Kal and the Nulls. Man I'd buy multiples of these.

I love those books. Character development  par excellance and gritty military science fiction coupled with a great sense of humor. Two packs of Etain and Dar, Kal and Walon would be best sellers hands down. There is such a fan following for these characters. Much love.
