Although loose images of these figures apeared online just last week, Hasbro makes it official today with their latest update.
Rescued from cancellation, the Battle of Endor continues with:
SAGA-044: Luke Skywalker (Endor Battle Poncho)
SAGA-045: Darth Vader (Endor Capture)
SAGA-046: Rebel Trooper (Endor Bunker)
There will be a variant as well...nice!
From the Battle of Naboo (name may change):
SAGA-047: Darth Maul (Holographic Sith Lord)
SAGA-048: Obi-Wan Kenobi (Articulated with soft goods)
SAGA-049: Rep Been (Gungan Representative)
SAGA-050: Naboo Royal Soldier (Flight Crew)
SAGA-051: Podracer Pilots (Mars Guo & Dud Bolt)
SAGA-052: Graga (Mos Espa Merchant)
But wait....this is the FINAL wave of basic figures for 2006? What about the long-rumored Battle of Yavin wave (Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Death Star Trooper, Rebel Sentry, Rebel X-Wing Pilot)? While not even officially confirmed yet (although they have been listed in certain store computers already), the future of these 5 figures is not known.
Perhaps we'll see them in The Saga Collection 2007...or maybe in another line celebrating the 30th anniversary of A New Hope. Yeah, no comment on that one...not yet anyway.
