I have to wonder if Disney has put their foot down and said no to diving into characters from older games like the Jedi Knight series.

I don't think they have any command or anything stopping them from making characters from older games, it's just that the scope of this subline from the start has been "characters from games using as little new tooling as possible", and that's all the line was ever intended to be; don't wanna be giving a retailer-exclusive subline too many shiny all-new figures, y'know?

If they ever do get around to doing a Kyle Katarn, it'd require a lot more new tooling, and necessarily be a bigger deal, too big of a deal to stick in a retailer-exclusive subline.
