I just caught the USA Today article a second ago and rushed over here...Idk if people will love or hate this but I'm very excited about this, I've wanted a 6 inch line of Star Wars figures since 2002. The price is awful, and I'm concerned they may take the same shortcuts they'be been taking in the ML line...but I'm remaining optimistic on these. It seems stupid to bring this up since the line hasn't even started yet but I hope they put out some 6 inch KOTOR figures, I'd like to be done with the 3 3/4 scale.

I'm beginning to wonder something about Hasbro's production process...I've noticed a few ML figures seem to be enlarged versions of previously released MU figures. Are the ML figures sculpted based on the MU or do they have some sort of method to enhance the size of their figures? I was also wondering (given some of the poor quality ML figures that have come out) if the figures are even being sculpted at this point. Is it possible that Hasbro is now making figures from 3D models? I've read a little about 3D printers and I don't think it's crazy to assume that Hasbro may have abandoned formal sculpting for their prototypes, and it could explain how they are able to produce larger versions of previously released 3 3/4 figures.
