Default Star Wars Q&A - Submit your Questions here!

Okay, so we're discussing getting a real live Q&A going with Hasbro. It seems far-fetched, but there's a chance this can happen. We have a few hurdles to overcome, but in the meantime throwdown some questions here. Even if it takes a little while to get going, we'll get some material ready.

We obviously all love Star Wars, and most of us collect the Hasbro toys/figures. We wouldn't be in the hobby if we didn't care enough about the line to spend our money on it. We are appreciative of Hasbro's overall efforts in driving the line for the past decade or so, and look forward to at least another decade of products that we can add to our collections.

That being said, we'd like to pose questions to the Hasbro Star Wars team that may be humorous, congratulatory, or even critical in nature. But it all comes from the heart - and the wallet.

If we can accomplish a few of our site goals first, and then get enough good questions we'll hopefully be able to participate.

So....

Have at it. Post your questions below...

Default Re: Q&A

One thing I was wondering is...

Would they ever consider having kinda a sub-line tailored for collectors? The main line could be more durable, and not as detailed or articulated, thus more kid-friendly. Then, it could even be via their website so they don't have to mess with the toy chains, and have more collector grade sculpts and such. I guess I'm kinda thinking of the DC Direct figures and the like. Same scale as the current ones, but more or less a series of the VOTC style figures that really only collectors would be into. (I'm asking this question thinking of Skiff Guards, Gamorreans, etc)

1) How long before you figure out that Indiana Jones isn't going to sell? I thought for sure once the movie came out, the pegs would dry up, just like Transformers last year. Nope. A week later, and the pegs still overfloweth.

2) When will supply meet demand? If you look around, very few people can find Saga Legends "The Other 4" (other than Zev, of course ), and very few people can find the 25th Joes. Are you hoping we'll just give up and buy Indy instead?

3) Are you recycling old Saga2 stands for the Wave 1 and 2 '08 figures? My Tri-Droid stand very clearly has Anakin Skywalker printed underneath.

4) What are the 2 holes on the back of the Rancor Rider Platform for? (Target Rancor with Felucian Rider)

5) Why have the upcoming build-a-droid pieces been put in such an easily thievable spot?

6) So how much longer until Willrow Hood shows up?

Thanks nomad... this should gain momentum (hopefully):

Is Bane's helmet removable?... if so, what is underneath?

and another:

Will Hasbro ever produce clone squad packs? These could include clones for each different unit: Shock, 501st, Utapau, Shadow, Coruscant, Kashyyyk, etc. with 1 of each clone: Airborne, AT-RT driver,Marine, Barc, pilot... and even Elite Corps.

1. Hasbro recently announced that plain black and white Mighty Muggs would be available on Hasbro Toy Shop. What is the probable price on them?

2. The slideshow at Toy Fair that showed Mighty Mugg Waves 2 and 3 said there would be 25 Muggs this year. Does this include Indy and Marvel?

3. Will we ever see Ahsoka in the main line? There's been a rumor of her in the Clone Wars line, but she would be a great main line figure.

4. There were a lot of Power of the Force II figures re-released this year. With the price increase that's almost inevitable, will we be seeing more of these figures since they are cheap for you to make? A lot of collector's may not want to buy straight or minor repaints of old figures at $8-10.

Hey! No Mighty Muggs questions allowed except "Are you ready to drop these pieces of crap from production yet?"

Alright, we're on the verge of making this a reality very soon (no promises yet), so please put some thought into more good questions. They can be cutting edge, but don't make them stupid, such as:

Figure X came with gloves that are painted midnight blue, when they should obviously be navy blue. Are you planning on correcting this figure immediately?

FESTER ADDAMS!

Apparently, Curto had no fucking clue as to how the orbalisk arm armor went on the figure, even though it's clearly shown on the back of the box! Fortunately, they're not as clueless at swCollector.com:
