Hasbro's 19th STAR WARS Q&A: The Answers!
Posted by Curto on November 17, 2006 at 02:26 PM CST:
As part of Hasbro's new weekly Q&A session, Rebelscum passed on 3 of your burning questions and now we've got the answers for you.

Rebelscum: Any chance we can see the Galactic Heroes figures released in two-packs of Clone Troopers like was done with the Stormtroopers a few years back? Fans really like the 501st and Shocktrooper Galactic Heroes figures and would like to get more, but they don't want to get several Palpatines and Sith-Eyes Anakins.

Hasbro: We are doing other troop packs next year, we just haven't slotted in any clones. We'll look at that when we get an opportunity. Thanks for the suggestion.

Rebelscum: Is the upcoming 41st Elite Trooper going to be the flip-visor version from the Tins or simply the "regular" VTSC version?

Hasbro: It's going to be the regular VTSC version.

Rebelscum: With all these Stormtrooper incarnations receiving unmaskable versions featuring Jango Fett Clone heads, surely it's worth making an "unmaskable" Boba Fett with a repainted Death Star Gunner head, except more grim perhaps and more scars. As Boba Fett is a popular character and the VOTC version is reaching high in the "Fan Favorite's Showdown" Poll then this would be a welcome edition and many fans and kids would buy them.

Hasbro: That would be a good figure to do at some point, and we are looking at him as a possibility in 2008.


Note: Due to the holiday next week, there won't be a Q&A session. We'll resume on the 27th.
