This went from rumor yesterday to confirmed today - http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movi ... s/1872035/

Well, there you go, 6-inch figures have hit the $20 mark!

Wow, so they're redoing the toys and canceling the 3D versions of Episode 2 and 3. There's a lot happening!

I see what they're doing here. The 6-inch figures are for the Nerd Dad. But I'm kinda nervous about the 3 3/4 figures and the part about all new versions of iconic characters. I don't want to start all over with my collection! Noooo!

I guess they're banking that nerd dad has the $19.99 and I don't doubt that a lot do. There's a lot of Star Wars fans out there in the world. I suppose they're planning on all these guys that bought Marvel Legends and that will spill over, plus it's Star Wars.

Sigh, I already miss the Vintage Collection. I can't buy new versions of iconic characters. I actually WANT the "15th Cantina Alien"!

The Luke does look great though. I will get a Han and Fett but that's probably it. But I suppose that's what Hasbro is banking on. People like me picking up a couple figures. But I'm not starting all over with my Star Wars collection or getting into another line 1.) because distribution has been PAIN and 2.) I don't have the money for any more "completing".

Reading between the lines, it looks like 3.75 is going to regress into 5 POA just like the IM3 figures did.

Like I mentioned in Uncle's thread, I will be picking and choosing. Fett and a Stormtrooper for sure. Beyond that?

First wave includes R2-D2--

20.00 for a what-- 3" tall Droid--- that seems like that makes sense..

Impressive.

Interesting first assortment too with X-Wing Luke, R2, Darth Maul, and a Sandtrooper. First thing Star Wars collectible-related to excite me since Hot Toys Luke.

Im done with it before it even starts--

My only definites would be Fett, Greedo, Zuckuss.

Maybes on Maul, Troopers (mostly just Biker Scout and Snowtrooper) and Padme, but since I assume this will all be main characters I can skip the majority of this line without even thinking........

I will be getting some of them, of course. Not to mention 2 Boba Fetts, one to my Star Wars collection and one to make my custom Peacemaker from Magog's Justice Batallion:

Well, if you think about it, it kind of does make since we paid $10 for a 1.5" tall droid.

Have a feeling that they're going to amp that one up quite a bit with accessories to make him "worth" more.

Wow. That's about as obscure as you can get. Didn't that guy die after one panel?

Dream come true.
Can't wait.
Getting everything (from original trilogy, so no Maul)
I have none of the 3 3/4" figures. Oh I had a ton of them when I was 9, but that's not the stuff I like now.
I am dedicated to the 6-inch scale now and the Luke they showed in that article? That's what I like.
I want a ton of these if that Luke is any indication of quality.
This is the news I've been wanting to hear for 10 years.

Hasbro sent us some bigger images of the 2 Luke pictures this morning if you want to see some closeups of the paint masters

This will definitely be a "wait and see" line for me, but I'm already leaning towards "buy".

I won't be a completist (I can easily do without a Darth Maul) but I can already think of a nice handful of characters that I would want to make a display with (I'd love to do Luke, Ben, Han, and Chewie around the cantina table with a dead Greedo at their feet ...)

Argh. I have no choice but to buy these.

also will probably pick and choose a few ot these. hopefully chewie will be to scale, when the do him.
there could be some really awesome figures to be made....
