While we've been calling this line the "Greatest Hits 2007" all along, that was always meant as a temporary name. Much like this year's
The Episode III Heroes & Villains Collection and
The Episode III Greatest Battles Collection were originally called "Greatest Hits," there was always a plan to come up with something more official.
Greatest Hits 2007 Gets a new nameThe official name of the line will be
Saga Legends. Starting next spring, this line will run alongside
The 30th Anniversary Collection throughout 2007. This will be a series of 20-24 straight repackaged figures from the entire modern line, complete with collector coins and including figures from across the entire modern Star Wars collection. The coins will be generic with the 6 different movie logos on them, depending on the character.
But here's something just for the fans...and where your vote really does count. 8 figures in the line will be specially designated as
Saga Legends Fan's Choice. These will be the figures that YOU voted for in the tournament. So be sure to vote!
Week 3 Still Running StrongThere's still plenty of time to cast your vote in this week's Greatest Hits 2007 tournament. 16 of your favorite figures from the past are currently facing off against each other for inclusion in next year's line.
While we already have some clear-cut winners, there are a couple of showdowns that are very close! YOUR vote could make the difference!
Bonus Pit Droids 2-Pack Vs. R2-Q5All 6 versions (released as a running change) of the foreign-released droids are facing off against an repainted astromech droid...can they go all the way?
Biker Scout (VTSC) Vs. Clone Trooper Sergeant (Troop Builder)One of this year's most popular troop builders is easily beating another figure that will be out in a few weeks anyway...can there be any doubt as to the outcome?
Imperial Officers Vs. Coleman TreborThis trio of Imperials (all 3 versions would be released as a running change) is taking on another obscure alien who's already beaten several troopers...who will be the victor?
Sandtrooper Squad Leader (Evolutions) Vs. Sandtrooper Sergeant (Evolutions)Although it may seem like these two are pretty much teh same figure...it's the paint application that sets them apart. So far it looks like the POTP Trooper (you're better off if you don't know what that means, trust me) stay in the lead?
R4-I9 (Imperial Forces) Vs. Boba Fett (VOTC)Another imperial astromech droid is currently beating the most notorious bounty hunter in the galaxy...wait, what? Really?
Darktrooper (Dark Forces) Vs. Clone Trooper (Troop Builder)Two popular troopers are facing off in this round, but as we have seen before...don't count out the clone!
Coruscant Clone Commander (Evolutions) Vs. Ephant MonHere we have another rare clone against a former Fan's Choice figure. WHile the clone is in the lead right now, anything can happen.
Graxol Kelvyyn (Watto's Box) Vs. TC-14On one side, we've got a popular protocol droid, and on the other side, a really big background alien....which one is YOUR favorite?
