Q&A 2009 - Round #8

[Mousedroid]

Dear Hasbro
We all know that for kids, Star Wars is about Jedi's, Clones, and Bounty Hunters. Given that we already have a lot of role-play toys for Jedi and Clones, the question is not so much are you...but when is Hasbro going to release some cool Bounty Hunter/Mandolorian role-play gear?
Cheers
Mousedroid

HASBRO RESPONSE:
The future is uncertain as to how prominently the Mandalorians will feature in Clone Wars. We're keeping an eye on them, as there could indeed be some role play opportunities there if they have a major role in future episodes of the series.

Hasbro,
Are we ever going to see Darth Malak, Darth Revan or Pre-Cyborg Grievous repacked in the basic line ever again? A lot of people seemed to have missed out on this wave and are constantly on the lookout for them - so any chance of a comeback for these bad boys?
Mike S

HASBRO RESPONSE:
Pre-Cyborg Grievous is not a strong candidate for return, unless fans vote him in in a future Saga Legends-type re-release vote (we are looking at this as a possibility for next Spring). Revan and Malak are more likely to return in some form or another within the next couple of years.

Dear Hasbro,
Given the amount of time you need to plan upcoming figures, are you looking at doing any tie in figure/s for the Old Republic MMORPG expected in the next year?
regards
YJ

HASBRO RESPONSE:
As of this writing, we don't have any information about The Old Republic other than the trailer that everyone else has seen. We don't know a release date, so we can't comment on if/when there will be figures. It’s very unlikely that any figures would be out to coincide with the launch of the game in any case. Instead, we'll probably follow with figures after the launch.
