you forget about the popularity of rex though. i don't think it's super likely to happen, but i certainly wouldn't be surprised if it did. hell, sideshow is releasing a second captain rex in his phase 1.5 armor.. so, it's possible hasbro does the same. but speaking of the sideshow rex, boy, i can't wait for that thing.

anyways.. if not rex, i'd still like more trooper commanders. i always thought they looked the coolest.. much better than the stormtroopers. they could do gree, bly, and if they do rex they might as well do thire, ponds, fox, wolffe, etc lol. but seriously.. if they do rex, there are just sooo many repaints they could get out of the mold. it'd sort of be silly not to cash in on something like that. it could allow them the money they'd need to make other new molds. sort of like transformers masterpiece figures. they make molds that have repaint/remold potential to recoup costs and make it possible to create molds that don't have obvious repaint potential.

That Palpatine is looking sharp, hopefully some lightning hands like the Unleashed figure has come included. As mentioned above the throne would've been swell, but that's how Hasbro gets our money come SDCC, right?

The Command line, while not too appealing to me as an adult, would have been right up my alley as a child. I'm thinking of picking them up for the younglings in the family.

yeah.. um.. new characters with old articulation doesn't give me a nostalgic vibe AT ALL.. it doesn't make any sense.

i absolutely LOVED the clone wars figures. i loved the style.. some of them weren't very articulated, but it worked. the clone troopers were absolutely fantastic, articulation everywhere, great accessories, awesome paint schemes, i loved collecting all of the different commanders and their troops. i would really kill for phase 2 versions of all of them. the animated style is just so cool looking. i know some fans really don't like it, i can't imagine why though, i mean, there are sooo many iterations of classic characters out there. clone wars was new and refreshing.
