Q1) Can we expect to see more Expanded Universe 2 packs based on Marvel Star Wars characters like Jaxxon, Valance the Hunter or Shira Brie/Lady Lumiya? 1) There will be more Marvel packs down the road, for sure, but we have not pulled the trigger yet on the three you mention. Of the three, we favor Lumiya and Valence (in that order) over Jaxxon. Try as we might, we just can't cotton to the cottontail. He just doesn't "fit" the Star Wars character universe like the others do (and it doesn't hurt that Lumiya has become a powerful force in recent novels we well). Don't look them anything until the very end of next year, if not later.
Q2) Hasbro made some great advances in "hidden" action features with the ROTS line. Using those skills, would it be possible to finally get a real to-scale rocket-firing Boba Fett? A) We still have issues with the size of the firing projectile, which is the main one to hit the aesthetics we think you are reallya sking about. The way our current safety standards are crafted, there is just no way to do it without having a non-small projectile.
Q3) With expanded universe becoming a big part of the Star Wars line, would we ever see re-issues/updates of Kenner's EU vehicles like the Imperial Troop Transporter or Mini-Rigs? A) It's doubtful that we'll ever get there, especially as some fo the items (like several of the Mini Rigs) were, well, not realy "heroic" vehicles. Some of them were cool, and it's possible we could do them, but just not likely given the other cool stuff on the horizon.
