I mean, sure, maybe the actress who played Oola hasn't signed off on merchandising likeness or whatever, but I don't think either her state of undress or her status as an enslaved person disqualifies her from being part of this line in some form or another. Honestly, there's a non-zero chance they have an SDCC set that includes her cooked up to more closely coincide with the (anticipated) release of the rancor.
I mean, a poll choice doesn't matter. The polls are rigged. See Dr. Aphra winning fan choice polls and the figures then wasting away at retail - she wasn't desired at all. She's still easily available to get at retail price on the secondary market.
"Slave 1" is no more. Leia is Huttslayer now, and you'd be damned to find any merchandise of her since that complain by that stupid dad. Japan gets a midriff Padme and we get one with full suit. Every female character in Star Wars since Disney took over has been totally covered up. Ahsoka even lost her boob window. Notice how Black Widow's outfit in the MCU has gotten progressively baggier and her zipper going further and further up her chest?
Disney has no issue cancelling characters for a multitude of reasons. See Cara Dune. We know damn well HASBRO has no issues with it, as they cancelled Hooded Cobra Commander.
