As part of Hasbro's bi-weekly Q&A session, Rebelscum passed on 3 of your burning questions and now we've got the answers for you.
Rebelscum: Many collectors are passing on the Fett evolution set and are wanting some changes to Boba and Jango. Jango is too purple and should be more blue, Boba's color is off and he is missing the icon on his chest plate. The helmets on both are somewhat warped as well. Is there any chance that Boba and Jango will see single carded releases with these changes?Hasbro: The Evolution of the Fett clan will run through 2009, and we will be updating to a version with the tampo (a regrettable error). Right now, we don't have any plans to offer these on basic figure cards.
Rebelscum: Great job with Toy Fair 2008. The toys look great and I am very excited about all the different things that were shown. One of my favorite items at Toy Fair was the Padmé Legacy Evolutions set. All three figures look great and will make a great addition to the other Padmés. However, I was noticing that of all the Padmés that have been made, there are still no Padmés in her various senator outfits. There are numerous battle Padmés and scene specific ones, including the nightgown/birth one, but none can be used for any of her senator scenes. Does Hasbro plan to release a Padmé in one of her senator outfits soon? Possibly in the 2009 AOTC wave that you have mentioned in previous question and answer threads?Hasbro: Thanks for the comments, and we hope all of the Padmé fans like the Evolutions set (we think it came out great and it's worth the wait for some great Padmés). While we don't have a senator outfit in the lineup for 2009, we agree that it should be one of the next ones done when we craft
our next AotC wave. So while it won't be as soon as you like, it won't be too long (hopefully) before we get to Senator Amidala.
Rebelscum: I would like to say thank you again for the upcoming release of V-19 Torrent Starfighter and TIE-Defender. I was wondering since you have released a number of ships and vehicles ranging for the six episodes,Clone Wars,and EU if you plan to release the following ships and vehicles within the next year or two:
Sith Fighter
UT-AT
SPHA-T
Naboo Yacht
Eclipse-Class Star Destroyer
E-wing
Republic Carrier
Imperial Transport (ANH special edition) Hasbro: We assume you mean Titanium. Yes you can look for some of these vehicles in 2009. Specifically we have plans for the E-wing, Republic Carrier, & UT-AT. Thanks for your continued support of Titanium. Keep your eyes open for these new ships and many more.
